Light Up the Arena with These Chandelure Combos for Pokkén Tournament

Nothing sets the mood like a solid beatdown.

Pokkén Tournament features several of the Pokémon franchise’s most familiar faces–like Pikachu and Charizard–but the inclusion of the bizarre, ghostly Chandelure shouldn’t be overlooked! This strange specter can be a formidable fighter in the Pokkén arena–if you’re interested in trying them out, start your studies with the bread ‘n’ butter combos in the video below.

For more combos: have a look at these bread ‘n’ butters for Pokkén Tournament’s Weavile and Shadow Mewtwo, also from Swillo & BimmyQuestion!

F K Digital Releases Character Trailers for Chaos Code: New Sign of Catastrophe

With the PlayStation4 update of Chaos Code coming to Japan next month, F K Digital have uploaded their first wave of character trailers, showing off the roster of their anime fighter. F K Digital had released an initial trailer showing off Otagi Hikaru a week or so ago, but they have now released six more character trailers. The roster ranges from hard-hitting cybernetic ninja Kagari, to bearded chef Bravo who uses giant woks and rotisserie chickens as weapons, to the bespectacled Hermes, who seems to use spirits similar to Stands from JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure to fight. Still no trailers showing off Lupinus and Ray, the two brand new characters for Chaos Code: New Sign of Catastrophe, but I expect F K Digital are putting some footage together of those fighters as you are reading this.

Check out the trailers below and await more information on a Western release of Chaos Code: New Sign of Catastrophe in the near future. With a new Chaos Code coming in 2017, as announced as this year’s Toushinsai, expect F K Digital to be trying to crack the Western market sometimes in the new year.

Use Urien’s EX Knee Drop to Set Up Left/Right Mix-Ups in Street Fighter V

While there’s been a lot that’s been written about Urien’s mix-ups, especially with his Aegis Reflector, not as much focus has been given to his EX Knee Drop. While most are aware of its use as a decent pressure tool, most players are just content to leave it at that.

In the video below however, Rotbah demonstrates how the EX Knee Drop can be used to set up a tricky left/right mix up. After a crouching heavy punch into heavy punch Metallic Sphere fireball combo, players can do EX Knee Drop and control where Urien lands by holding forward to land behind their opponent, or nothing to land in front.

The interesting thing about this set up is that, wherever Urien lands, he’s perfectly primed to beat 3 frame jabs with a meaty crouching heavy punch. Now, while the latter move is unsafe on block, Urien can still cancel into EX Metallic Sphere to keep himself safe, while also putting him at the perfect distance to punish most crouching jabs.

Check out the mix-up below.
