Anyway, I think most of Giorno's popular matchups suck. He has Ben 10's problem; for Ben, it's Alien X or bust and for Giorno, it's Golden Wind Requiem or bust.
At least Ben has a wide variety of Aliens with a ton of abilities and a wide-range of AP. For Giorno, he needs Golden Wind Requiem in 99% of his fights, or he just dies.
It doesn't help that, in-canon, GWR's abilities are super vague, so it's really, really easy to "w*nk."
It also makes the "debate" really boring because it's just, "Can Giorno's opponent get past GWR? Yes? Then they win. No? Then (usually) the best Giorno can hope for is a tie." It's pretty lame.
(It doesn't help that Giorno is my least favorite JoJo protagonist).
