Additionally, the top four competitors would be awarded a share of the €8,500 (approx. $10,210 USD) prize that was up for grabs, guaranteeing us a fierce competition.

Mix and match fan-made Critical Arts with Street Fighter V’s Mysterious Mod

Rumors are abound concerning a potential “Super” Street Fighter V update which adds new elements to the V-System, introduces some classic characters and gives everyone on the roster a second Critical Art. While we may be waiting until December to see this update — if we see something like it at all — Street Fighter V modders have taken it upon themselves to make their own Critical Arts.

To publicize these new Critical Arts, SFV modder Killbox has created a compilation that shows the current selection of new super moves. So far, the only characters without fan-made Critical Arts are:

  • Ed
  • Rashid
  • Cammy
  • R. Mika
  • Chun-Li
  • Karin
  • Menat
  • Kolin
  • Abigail

If you are a keen Street Fighter V modder and have ideas for a Critical Art, make sure to join the Mysterious Mod Discord. So far, my favorites have to be Birdie’s rapid fire headbutt, F.A.N.G’s toxic dance, and Zangief’s helicopter lariat.

Method|REO shares Injustice 2 tier list, proposes buffs for The Joker

Method Gaming’s Giuseppe “REO” Grosso recently shared his own personal tier list for Injustice 2 over on his YouTube channel. The NRS pro’s video briefly explains the justification for each tier, though the impatient can jump to 4:26 to see the full list.

While it’s probably not unexpected to see a tier list from a pro player, what’s interesting is that REO appears to be using this list as a springboard for a new project:

In his latest video, MK_REO has announced he’ll be proposing ideas for buffs or nerfs for the cast of Injustice 2. Starting at the very bottom with The Joker, his first episode discusses Joker’s trait, why it’s not working in competitive play, and what can be done from a design standpoint to raise his viability.
