Sajam and Infil Provide Mini Tutorials for the Entire Killer Instinct Cast

With season three’s characters, balance updates, and PC release coming in March, it’s easy to see why Killer Instinct has recently drawn so much attention.

With a whole new group of players looking to get in on their share of the hype, Killer Instinct masterminds Sajam and Infil teamed up to create a series of short–seriously, they’re about thirty seconds each–videos to promote the Killer Instinct World Cup and discuss what makes each character in the game tick. You may think thirty seconds isn’t long, and you’d be right, but you’ll also likely be surprised how much information can be crammed into such a short period.

We’ve included a couple of the character guides below along with a primer on how the game’s combo breaker system works. You can find the rest in the full playlist, and if you’re looking to improve your Killer Instinct knowledge even more, be sure to check out Infil’s website.

Street Fighter V Final Beta Roundup feat. Ambiguous Chun-Li Setups, R. Mika Strategies, and More

We’re now less than two weeks away from having the final version of Street Fighter V in our hands, and we’ve got one last beta footage roundup to share. In a style similar to our previous roundups from this final beta phase, much of the content you’re about to see comes in the form of match highlights.

Up first, Lucius from Rush and Kill Clan offers a look at some devastating Chun-Li technology. After ending a combo with EX lightning legs, it seems that Chun-Li can use her V-Skill to put herself into a position offering ambiguous jump-ins.

We saw similar footage earlier this week from wauhti, but Lucius’ contribution provides options for outside of the corner as well. Don’t forget to stick around until the end for some lengthy combo extensions.

Next on today’s list, EyeOfThundera822 shows off his chops with Nash. These highlights offer a look at the sort of potential the returning character has, including combos, resets, V-Trigger usage, how to deal with projectiles, and plenty more.

Lastly, we’ve got some more R. Mika footage from Negativeedge. If you’ve had a chance to see Mika in action, you’ve likely got a good idea of what to expect: resets on top of resets. There’s a chance you’ve seen some of these options before, but be sure to check out how Mika deals with Rashid’s V-Trigger.
