In Pokkén Tournament DX, Scizor hits hard and stylishly with air-dashes, just frame inputs, and jump cancels. This type of character’s combos will keep your hands busy, but raw damage isn’t the only thing you should be thinking about when playing this Bug Bruiser.

With access to a combo ender like Bug Bite, Scizor can steal status effects and drain health and meter from the opponent. Couple this with his mobility options and full screen Bullet Punch, Scizor isn’t just brutal: he’s versatile.

So put in some practice time with 21 Hits‘s latest Scizor video and you’ll be ready to squash your opponents like… well, you know.

A lot has been made of tech-chasing in the Super Smash Bros. Melee community. While some have called it optimal play, three-time Evo champion Armada has decided to correct this error.

Tech-chasing requires players to predictively follow their opponents on their knockdowns and recovery in order to punish them — and there’s still some risk involved. If you’re wrong, you yourself could get punished and lose a stock in doing so. Reads allow you to make guesses that may lose you spacing, but keep you safer in the long run.

Dragunov is easily one of the best characters in Tekken 7. His combos and damage potential have been on full display on the Tekken World Tour, thanks to Echo Fox|JDCR’s oppressive play on the circuit.

Tekken, however, has been a game where even top tiers can be easily beatable with knowledge — regardless of your character of choice. As such, this video shows you all of the frame properties of Dragunov’s unsafe moves. They also go over some of his moves that are capable of being interrupted. While it’s up to you to find your punishes for your own character based on the frame disadvantage, it shows even the top tiers can be exploited.
