General: 5 Best In-Game Gifts from Developers

5 Best In-Game Gifts from Developers

One of the best ways to spread holiday cheer is to give presents to other people, but let’s be honest: getting a gift that you want (or one that you didn’t know you wanted) is sure to make you feel just as warm and tingly inside. Last week, David Jagneaux shared 5 Awesome Gift Ideas for the MMO Gamer, and I’d be just as happy buying one of those items for myself as I would be getting it for one of my guildmates.

Mynus Demonstrates Two Useful Elphelt Unblockable Escapes for I-No in Guilty Gear Xrd -SIGN-

While Guilty Gear Xrd -SIGN-‘s Elphelt Valentine has a number of setups for her unblockable rifle shot, Christmas came early for I-No players looking for ways to escape.

Dustloop’s mynus recently uploaded a helpful video covering two options that allow I-No to escape from Elphelt’s powerful technique as well as three that don’t. Both of the successful strategies involve instant blocking the grenade throw for faster blockstun recovery and punishing with either Longing Desperation or Stroke the Big Tree while the rifle charges.

The video’s description also mentions that performing Longing Desperation on wakeup also works, but brings with it a tight two-frame window of success.
