While it suffered a bit from a buggy launch, Dead or Alive 5 Last Round has found quick adoption from its community thanks to an upcoming competitive tour and free upgrades for those who already have the previous version. That said, its predecessor was no slouch, considered by many to be one of the best competitive iterations the series has ever seen.

To celebrate the passing of Dead or Alive 5 Ultimate, long-time competitor Emmanuel “MASTER” Rodriguez put together a comprehensive combo video for Ryu Hayabusa. The exhibition aims to showcase almost all the combos that the super ninja has at his disposal, including more than a few stage-specific setups.

The end result, which you can see below, showcases the skill and knowledge of a player who has dedicated his entire career to a single character.

If you’d like a bit more insight into the work MASTER put into this project, he’s also shared a video where he discusses the creative process.

Peach’s turnips aren’t nearly as demoralizing as a well-timed swipe from Mario’s cape, but there’s still something satisfying about using a perfectly-tossed root vegetable to secure victory. Alpharad, in his newest How to Play video for Super Smash Bros. for Wii U, conjures up that feeling of satisfaction over and over again as he lets the veggies fly.

Of course, there are those rare moments when the clouds part and the random number generator blesses Peach with an unearthed Bob-omb–you’ll see some of that, too. This footage also features a few brief exchanges with overzealous Little Mac players that prove that he requires a certain degree of restraint in order to keep from self destructing.

Be sure to check out these Peach combo tutorial videos from EOE to see even more uses for those glorious turnips.
