Potemkin is a former
slave soldier of Zepp, a militaristic nation that maintains a society based
on science and technology. Having taken the rest of the slave soldiers
hostage, he was sentenced by his superior to enter the tournament. During
the tournament, he learned that a coup d'etat was in progress. In the end,
the coup d'etat succeeded and Zepp was freed from its dictatorship. President
Gabriel, Potemkin's former instructor, summoned him for a secret mission;
to protect a Gear from the bounty hunters and bring it back safely to Zepp.
Though Potemkin is unable to discern the mission's true motive, he decides
to trust his former master, and accepts the mission.

For a big guy design, he's
definitely a unique looking character in the fighting game universe... at least
he's not another freakin' wrestler. lol. Besides having laughably stubby legs and being
completely out of proportion (and being inspired by Juggernaut),
Potemkin is fairly cool and has a considerable amount of unique moves and
mannerisms. However, he has quite a few awkward/goofy looking priority moves,
which for some reason or another, seem to be part of his design. His personality
is also kinda hard to read, and sometimes he seems more awkward and
"dumb" than anything
else.
Honestly,
I enjoy beating him up with other characters... lol. I never was a big fan of using
him, but he is rather fun to fight against. On the flipside, I like his redesign in Guilty
Gear Xrd -SIGN- so far! He really needed a redesign. I'm definitely looking forward to seeing more of the new Potemkin.
