Season 1 was known for the game mechanics allowing for some amazing comebacks; with Season 2, many things got nerfed–including wake-up DPs–that have made this slightly less possible. But this doesn’t mean its not still happening, and quite possibly amplifies how amazing these comebacks actually are.

XusesGB is back at it, collecting some of the best of the best to inspire you to never give up and never surrender. This video features some of the best players, including Galtu, Echo Fox|Tokido, and ImStillDaDaddy.

Japan is not known for its Killer Instinct players, but if a Japanese player is playing a fighting game, he is giving it his all. And yes, Japan does have a growing Killer Instinct scene, and it looks good.

It was so good in fact, that over the weekend there was a large event in Japan for the title called Kombo Klash. Due to the difference in time between the West and the East, it was difficult to watch from over here. That, however, doesn’t mean you missed your opportunity.

Now the entire event has been uploaded to YouTube. Catch all of this high-level Japanese Killer Instinct play right here!

A classic rivalry, in more ways than one!

At long last, they meet in battle: HyperX|Daigo Umehara, walking the long road, seeking the meaning of battle with his iconic main Ryu; Echo Fox|Tokido, now returned after a long wait to the dark power of the Satsui no Hado, with his classic main Akuma. These two giants of Street Fighter fame finally clash online in this FT2 Ranked match set. Watch it below and see who is the true master of the Hado (this time).

[And a shout-out to RektScrub for their use of one of my favorite versions of Akuma’s theme in their video! – Editor]
