Iron Galaxy Studios, AcidGlow Bring Out Maya’s Potential in These Killer Instinct Combo Exhibitions

While the second season of Killer Instinct has only been out for a couple of days, we’re already seeing incredibly long Ultra Combo displays from fans of the game as well as the developers themselves. Below, you’ll find a few videos that take a close look at Maya and the tools that she has available.

First, we’ve got a demonstration from the Iron Galaxy Studios crew. This footage includes plenty of combos for using mid-match thanks to their practicality and they’re a good place to get started if you’re looking to pick Maya up. After the practical stuff, the team shows off a lengthy Ultra Combo finish with the knife-wielding fighter that caps out at a respectable 81 hits.

While the combo closing out the Iron Galaxy demo reel was pretty impressive, AcidGlow has managed to squeeze out quite a few more knife swipes in his latest videos. Both of his combos easily sail over 100 hits, with the first raking in 147 and the second coming just shy of breaking 200.

If there’s one lesson to take away from these videos, it’s this: trying to count the knives that Maya tosses into her opponents’ chests during her Ultra Combos is a lot like trying to count raindrops; there are just too many of them.
