Team PIE’s Smug has come to be known as one of the most exciting Ultra Street Fighter IV players on the scene today, and it’s easy to understand why. From his fearless approach to rush down, to his immaculate execution and ability to control the pace of any match, a Smug set is always sure to please.

Smug tied for a 17th place finish in Ultra Street Fighter IV at Final Round 18 over the weekend, which is nothing to scoff at considering the global competition that made it out to Atlanta, Georgia. Outside of the brackets, the east coast warrior was able to sit down with a handful of other top players from the event for sets of friendly matches.

Due to the nature of these matches, in conjunction with the sheer amount of footage that needed to make it up on streams over the weekend, these matchups sadly didn’t make a live broadcast. Thankfully, Joshua Taylor was standing by ready to capture the footage. Below, you’ll see Tokido and Mago of Mad Catz as well as Bonchan line up for a Smug showdown.

Just in time for her official launch tomorrow, the folks behind Killer Instinct have dropped a brand new trailer for spooky season two addition Hisako. While you won’t glean any more gameplay information that we don’t already know, this introduction does a good job of providing more details on her origins.

Oh and, of course, you absolutely have to stay tuned all the way to the end for our very first look at returning cast member Cinder, whose updated design takes full advantage of the Xbox One’s graphical capabilities. And is that a hint of an accent I hear?
