Zafina Mixes it Up in This Tekken Tag Tournament 2 Combo Video

Contortionist Zafina has a very unique style in the Tekken series, and looks amazing as she fights. However, she is often not recognized for her actual prowess in the game, and often finds herself relegated to the shadows.

However, now it’s time to step out and show what she is capable of in this epic combo video. The video, which shows her in unlimited mode, shows exactly how she can bend a fight her way.

Watch the World Burn in This Scorpion Combo Video for Mortal Kombat XL

Scorpion is one of the favorite staples of the Mortal Kombat series since its inception. His both firey and dark personality–and his ensemble of unique moves–has always appealed to the player masses.

In this combo video, we see Scorpion at his finest. Watch him burn through souls in his Hellfire variation, as he has a ton more midscreen combos–owing in part to his harpoon to extend combos after a heavy blowback.

ZeRo Talks about His Meteoric Rise and the Pressure to Stay on Top

Team SoloMid’s Gonzalo “ZeRo” Barrios has had one of the strongest couple of years in fighting game history. He’s had a dominating performance within Super Smash Bros. for Wii U, winning an unprecedented 56 events between 2014 to 2015. But his legendary performance wasn’t an easy road to pave.

A writing team from Smashboards published a deep retrospective on ZeRo–just in time for Genesis 4–that starts with his humble origins in Chile, where his mother nurtured his passion for Smash. He then talks about the difficulty in moving on past Melee, with Brawl being particularly difficult because he and his friends couldn’t afford a Wii to practice the game. But most notable is his talk of the pressure he faced to remain on top, and the relief he felt when his win streak finally ended, saying, “A big part of me was extremely relieved such big weight was off my shoulders.”
