System
- Burst becomes GG style, stock up to 2 bursts
- Guard Break works like HnK star style (7 stars under lifebar)
- Burst no longer have damage penalty
- If you lose a round you start with +1 Burst in the next
- You start with 1 burst in round 1, and get 1 more burst per round, can stock two. So if you don't use your burst round one, you end up with 2 in round 2, but you can not stack anymore after that
- Sustainable Guard Libra
- All AH are unlocked
- When regular gold burst hits opponent, opponent will bounce high and able to combo from there
- You can use AH when you need one more round to win (not the final round of the match) with 100% meter, character shines in white when it is possible to activate AH
- Heat Gauge goes up automatically from the beginning of the round (Yes, Everybody is like Haku-men now)
- Guard Libra length changes for every characters, meter goes down if the character blocks the specific move that breaks the guard (e.g. blocking Λ-11-'s 214D will let meter go down by 2)
