Bafael Offers Combo Options for Street Fighter V’s Rainbow Mika

Bafael started out the week by releasing some Street Fighter V combo videos for Cammy and Nash. Earlier today, he added footage focused on R. Mika to his growing playlist aimed at helping everyone get going more quickly once the game releases.

As with previous videos in this series, Bafael lays out easy options for anti-airs, go-to punish combos, Crush Counter combos and more. If you’re considering picking up the brightly colored wrestler, be sure to give the video a watch.

As with anything related to Street Fighter V, we can’t be certain all of the highlighted combos will remain intact. Even so, this will remain an excellent starting point.
