The Secret World: Issue 10 Nightmare in the Dream Palace Preview

Issue 10 Nightmare in the Dream Palace Preview

The Secret World issue 10: Nightmare in the Dream Palace is live, and we recently had the chance to run around the other side of Tokyo in a look at the brand new content. When we last left issue 9, there had been a huge explosion that conveniently reduced the quarantine wall that had been blocking off one side of Tokyo from the other, to more of an inconvenience than an obstacle. Issue 9 worked to lay down the foundations of new systems and new strategies, specifically having to do with Aegis.

Ultra Street Fighter IV Ode to Skill Video Focuses on the Many Characters of RnK|Lucius

Rush and Kill Clan released yet another Ultra Street Fighter IV exhibition earlier today, this time focusing on team member Lucius. The Ode to Skill highlight reel features skillful use of Juri, C. Viper, Akuma, Seth, and Decapre. By just looking at that list of characters, you should know to what to expect: truly explosive damage output.

Each character gets a good deal of time in the spotlight as Lucius demonstrates their corner dominance and full mid-match combo potential. You’ll see an alarming amount of corner cross-unders, some incredibly high-execution combos, and a few Decapre mix-ups that will leave your head spinning.

Of course, no highlight reel would be complete without a little humor, and Seth scoring a stun after multiple successful head stomps definitely fits the bill.

NorCal Fight Club League Returns in January, B League Qualifiers Begin Tonight

Earlier this year, Pandora House brought Northern California together with the NorCal Fight Club League. Taking nods from TOPANGA’s own league, various members of the local community were gathered to compete in a round-robin competition to decide the region’s Ultra Street Fighter IV champion.

After three intense rounds, Evil Geniuses’ Ricky Ortiz would come out on top, cementing her first-place finish with a ridiculous undefeated streak throughout the entire event. Along with Ortiz, Julio of Macro Micro Games, Pandora House’s own HooDaMan and LPN, and Kelvin Jeon of AVerMedia were selected as the very first A League participants due to their similarly high rankings in the final standings.

Of course, where there’s an upper league, there needs to be a lower league, right?

NorCal Fight Club’s B League will be comprised of the four players who just missed qualifying for A League (in this case bjUNCHAINED, El Cubano Loco of Macro Micro Games, Crackfiend, and Nando) as well as twelve new qualifiers. These up-and-comers will be decided at two separate qualifying events, the first of which is scheduled for this evening.

NorCal Fight Club League will begin in earnest starting January 9.

Tonight’s event is set to take place at Milpitas Golfland in Milpitas, California, starting at around 8 PM PST. A live stream will be provided by Pandora House for folks not able to attend in person, so be sure to tune in and catch all the action live.
