Brian Kasugano shares new Saki Infinite for Tatsunoko vs. Capcom, larger combo video on the way

Likely inspired by the resurgence of Tatsunoko vs. Capcom events–such as the netplay Summer League and the TvC exhibition in Tokyo, YouTuber Brian Kasugano shares a new infinite with us for the Quiz Nanairo Dreams character, Saki.

The infinite hits inconsistently on some characters in the cast due to the tight placement of the energy ball, whose lingering hitbox is necessary to keep the loop going. This quirky and likely impractical loop may not see competitive play, but according to Brian, there’s a larger TvC combo video on the way. In that light, this is a great teaser. It’s great to see old gems continuing to get new combo content so much later in their lives!

Bedman spotlight: A nightmarish look at Guilty Gear Xrd REV 2 character tech

Bedman is one of those characters who can turn a match into a nightmare very quickly. Though he has very unconventional ways of moving and creating mix-up opportunities, the best Bedman players have a knack for creating terrifying, nearly inescapable corner pressure and convoluted mix-ups.

REV 2 changes Bedman quite a bit, so those who have the demo have only started to figure out the new tech. One of the many big changes is a new 6HS normal. Check out this compilation of video tweets to know what REV 2 Bedman has in store for you, or to apply the tech to your own repertoire.

That was a fine sampling of scary stuff, wasn’t it? Make sure to check out the respective Twitter timelines of each poster for even more terrifying Bedman stuff!
