Killer Instinct Team Requests Feedback on Season Two Content

Just as they did after the conclusion of Killer Instinct season one, the folks at Iron Galaxy Studios and Microsoft Studios launched a survey earlier today asking players a plethora of questions about their experiences with the game’s latest round of content.

The survey includes standard inquiries regarding play time, skill level, and the like, but also requests more in-depth input on topics relating to the Shadow Lab as well as opinions on favorite and least favorite characters. Many of the queries come paired with text boxes so those taking the survey can be as specific as they wish.

If there’s something you love (or hate) about the game, this is the perfect time to let the team know so they can make season three–set to launch in March of next year–the best yet.

Keep the Damage Flowing with These Sakura Unblockables in Ultra Street Fighter IV

Shano recently put up a video showing the best ways for Sakura to keep the damage going after a combo ends through the use of various unblockables in Ultra Street Fighter IV.

The majority of these setups work on one or two targets at best, but that’s just the nature of this sort of thing. There are, to be sure, a small number that work on a wider swath of cast members, but they’re certainly not the majority in the footage below. The good news–or, I suppose, the bad news, depending on which end of the setup you’re on–is that Shano has included plenty of variety when it comes to the type of knockdown delivered and wakeup timing used.

I personally found the destruction that Sakura can bring to an unsuspecting Ibuki to be nothing short of alarming. Maybe their rival battle has more anger behind it than the short cinematic would lead players to believe.
