Fosh demonstrates how to punish panic assists in Pokkén Tournament

Do safe-on-block panic assists frustrate you in Pokkén Tournament? These assists–Snivy, Umbreon, and Fennekin–are not nearly as safe as you may think. As Fosh demonstrates in his latest tech video, with proper timing and knowledge, you can punish your opponent for any panic assist they may call.

As always, it’s important to know what your character can do in these particular situations. Keep in mind that not all burst attacks are created equal when it comes to their invincibility. With a little training mode practice, though, you should be baiting assists in no time.

PND|Mustard puts you on the path to terror with this guide for Injustice 2’s Scarecrow

Recently, top NetherRealm community content creators PND|Ketchup & Mustard were able to play a pre-release build of Injustice 2 at WB Games UK in London, England, and have begun uploading a series of content from their time with the game.

For their first video, PND|Mustard provides us with an in-depth introduction to the Master of Fear, Scarecrow, as part of their “Getting Started” series. Though some of this information is subject to change in the final release, it’s a great watch for those interested in truly exploring the power of fear! Mustard provides us with a walkthrough of Crane’s normals, specials, strings, as well as ways to best utilize his Trait–with its Damage-Over-Time (DOT) effect. He also covers Scarecrow’s Traumatize ability, that can lead to some terrifying mind-games truly befitting the character. You can see the full video below–and you can also check out his brother Ketchup’s text impressions of Deadshot from an earlier build at the Insomnia Gaming Festival, here.

Ketchup & Mustard have indicated they have plenty of content yet to come, so stay tuned to Shoryuken and their channel to see it as soon as it’s released!

Injustice 2 will be released on PlayStation 4 and Xbox One on May 16th.
