FGC News interviews Ryan Hart and Phenom at TBS’s ELEAGUE

FGC News recently interviewed two top European players on the site at TBS’s ELEAGUE: Ryan “Prodigal Son” Hart, and Arman “Phenom” Hanjani.

Ryan Hart has been around. When the British pro says the production is like “nothing else he’s ever seen”, his pro experience dating back to the days of Tekken 3 make it easy to believe him. During the conversation he talks about how his life as a married man makes staying on top difficult, and how he was torn over the defeat of Luffy.

Opposite of Ryan was Arman ‘Phenom’ Hanjani, fresh off his win of to qualify for top 8 in ELeague. He talks about how he has to remain confident going into any match regardless of his opponent,  how he only plays to get paid, and his fear of trying another game (in this case, Injustice 2) at the expense of getting worse at SFV.

Final Showdown highlights a new infinite combo concept for Hayato in Marvel vs. Capcom 2

With people tending to focus on whatever new games are out these days, it’s easy to forget that new things can still be found in older games, even decades later. On creator however who’s been doing a great job highlighting older games is Clayton “Final Showdown” Chapman who has returned with a new Marvel vs. Capcom 2 video.

In the video below, Final Showdown demonstrates a concept for a new infinite combo for MvC2’s Hayato. Now the loop he shows below is just a concept. There are a few other things that need to be done before it can be considered usable, such as figuring out good ways to get into the loop, as well as seeing if it deals enough damage in the long run before the game’s loop killing “undizzy” system hits. That said, the combo itself looks promising, and we can likely expect it to appear in one of Final Showdown’s combo videos in the future.
