UltraDavid Analyzes Daigo Umehara’s Season 2 Ryu from Street Fighter V Online Matches

Note: Spoilers ahead for Topanga League! If you were planning on avoiding results for Topanga League, you should turn back now…

After HyperX|Daigo Umehara’s uncharacteristically poor performance in the Topanga League Round Robin, UltraDavid brings his analytical skills to some online Daigo sets. Daigo is certainly no weak opponent, but UltraDavid suspects that some of his habits, broken down and shown over several games, may reveal a player that hasn’t adjusted to the active and aggressive nature of Season 2. And, of course, Ryu’s various nerfs and vastly different game-plan are discussed in terrific detail.

Matches analyzed include Daigo vs. Narikun’s Ibuki, Galtu’s Bison, Iwate’s Bison, Crusher’s Birdie, and 200Won’s R. Mika.

Watch Mega Man Cut Through the Competition in This Super Smash Bros. for Wii U Combo Video

Mega Man was a surprise entrant into top 8 at Evolution 2016. Even more shocking that he made it all the way to Grand Finals in the hands of Japan’s Kamemushi. But the Blue Bomber has more than just a few tricks up his sleeve.

With the variety of boss weapons he has at his disposal in Super Smash Bros. for Wii U, Mega Man has amazing combo potential. He can go long range with his Cut Man weapon. He can combo with his grab using the Leaf Man weapon. He can even give his opponents a lift with his Air Man weapon. All of this is put on full display in this excellent combo video.

New Monstrous Statue of Mortal Kombat’s Goro Stands at an Intimidating 1/3 Scale

One of the most visually intimidating and easily recognizable characters in the Mortal Kombat series–perhaps in all of fighting games–is the four-armed beast known as Goro! His larger-than-life proportions dwarf his competition in-game, and the folks at Pop Culture Shock are looking to emulate that feel in statue form.

This 1/3 scale statue, standing at roughly 3 feet tall, has all the bells and whistles to help it feel as realistic as possible. It has actual hair, fabric for clothes rather than plastic, and a base that lights up with LED. You can see some shots of this beast of a statue below, along with a video showing off this beauty in all its glory. While no date or price has been announced for the figure yet, more details should be coming next week.
