It’s time to cast aside the boulder loops of yesteryear and become a more efficient space rodent. The days of Rocket Raccoon relying on assists, X-Factor, or even a ground bounce of his own to confirm into a boulder loop are now firmly behind us thanks to this new technology from ANBU Fight Club’s Treblig-Punisher.

With a properly timed cr.H after tossing out a bomb, Rocket can begin the boulder barrage to rack up some respectable damage numbers without having to use up any resources. The video below offers a couple of ways to get this combo going, including one for midscreen and one for the corner.

Each of these options tops out over 700k damage for a single bar, which is hard to ignore. Check out the video and see if you can borrow any strategies for your own game.

Killer Instinct Ultra Edition owners get to take their first crack at the game’s newcomer, Aganos, today, but players in possession of the Combo Breaker edition of the game still have another week to endure. If you’re among those stuck waiting to give the golem a go for the first time, perhaps checking out its full theme will help make the wait more manageable.

The theme, which was composed, performed, and mixed by Mick Gordon, features lyrics from Panos Kolias. While the lyrics themselves do an excellent job of conjuring up the idea of a towering stone titan, it’s their delivery (among other things) that makes this song so unique. Instead of featuring a single, isolated vocalist, the track makes use of a crowd-sourced choir of vocals from 461 people, including the entire team at Iron Galaxy Studios and many members of Microsoft alongside Kolias and his family. If you listen really closely, you can almost pick Adam “Keits” Heart out from the mass. Almost.

Even if you haven’t yet had a chance to start slugging it out with this fighter, his theme is not one to be missed. Check it out below.
