Decapre Shows Her Claws in Cjbqulix’ Newest Ultra Street Fighter IV Combo Video

If you caught last night’s segment of the Ultra Street Fighter IV top 32 at NorCal Regionals, you got to see Liquid|NuckleDu and r/Kappa.FGC|Infiltration face off in one of the most exciting Decapre mirror matches to date. There were periods where the footsies dance between the two grew so intense that neither one seemed to touch the ground as they threw out scramble variants and aerial spiral arrows to vie for spacing control.

And it seems that the Decapre hype just continues to build. Combo music video extraordinaire, cjbqulix, has released another reel, this time featuring the masked fighter herself in all her combo-heavy glory. As with previous offerings from cjbqulix, this video involves plenty of creative use of the character’s kit, including some hurt box abuse against large targets as well as a few unique methods of applying the Psycho Stream Ultra.

For those planning on picking up the PlayStation 4 version of Skullgirls: Encore, here’s some interesting news for you: a recent Tweet from senior animator Jonathan “Persona” Kim mentioned that the PlayStation 4 version of the game will support cross-play with the PlayStation 3 version.

This announcement means that players on the PlayStation 4 version will automatically have a larger pool of players to play against in the game’s excellent online mode mode by allowing them to face off against players on PlayStation 3.

In addition to this, the tweet also mentioned that the patch including the game’s new character, Beowulf, has already been submitted to Sony for testing. If all goes well, we should see the him available for download in a few weeks’ time.
