Dragon Ball FighterZ video roundup: Team Buu, Hellzone safe jump, and more!

It’s another day in West City! Dragon Ball FighterZ continued to spirit bomb our inbox with tech videos. Let’s see what the FGC has been working on lately!

There’s been some talk lately about Vegeta’s value outside of an assist. Maybe this was the inspiration for rooflemonger tackling some Vegeta combos?

Speaking of Vegeta, sikshot gaming is back with his “On Block” video series. He’s tackling both Vegeta and Bluegeta in his latest video.

Famed KOF combo maker Persona Entertainment has continued to try his hand at the 100% possibilities of DBFZ.

Monkey D Vegetto demonstrates how unsafe it is to try and reflect Hellzone Grenade. There’s true lockdown potential here with this super!

Street Fighter V pro THE COOL KID93 wanted to show off his technology with Gotenks, particularly his synergy with Goku Blue.

Apolo Loussalier demonstrates the synergy of Team Buu.

Y. Xiao shows off how to combo after Krillin’s Destructo Disc!

As always, if you see anything worth sharing, let us know by submitting a tip for our next roundup. Thanks everyone!

Enjoy some BlazBlue: Cross Tag Battle pre-release tournament action from PlayStation Arena

With BlazBlue: Cross Tag Battle drawing ever closer, the game made an appearance at the PlayStation Arena event in South Korea this past weekend. During the presentation a four-player, double-elimination tournament was held with the 20-character build we’ve seen at Evo Japan, the 2018 Taipei Game Show, and various Arc Live! streams over the past few months. Fortunately for us, BlazBlue content creator Koefficient has uploaded the archive of the event to YouTube for our viewing pleasure.

Though early, this footage gave us a great idea of what BBTAG play could look like at a high-level, with plenty of footage of Team RWBY’s Ruby Rose and Weiss Schnee, as well as BlazBlue’s Ragna The Bloodedge, Nu-13, Azrael, and Es on display. So if you’re interested in having any of those six characters on your team, be sure to give this video a look.

BlazBlue: Cross Tag Battle will be released on PlayStation 4, Nintendo Switch and PC in Japan on Thursday, May 31st, with a North American release following on the same platforms on Tuesday, June 5th. The Cross Character Pack 2 DLC characters will be revealed on March 16th, and BBTAG was just announced to be a side tournament at CEO 2018, as well as one of the eight main stage games of Evo 2018.

How do you think BBTAG is shaping up after viewing this footage? Tell us your thoughts in the comments.

Guild Wars 2 – Nothing is Quite the Same as Living World Returns to Guild Wars 2

Living World is back with the release of A Bug in the Works, the latest chapter in Guild Wars 2’s ever evolving narrative. Unfortunately, so is Palawa Joko. This king of the undead recently returned from the underworld and he has already turned his gaze on central Tyria. Since the closing moments of Daybreak, his Awakened have terrorized the Plains of Ashford and the cobbled streets of Divinity’s reach with increasing regularity. Now, it is time to do something about it.

Dekillsage parts ways with Team Critical Reaction

It seems yet another sponsored fighting game player has hit free agency, as following the recent news of Circa Esports dissolving after Evo, Splyce departing from the fighting game community and Punk leaving Panda Global, it was just announced that Dekillsage has officially left Team Critical Reaction.

Previously regarded as one of the biggest Teams in the NetherRealm Studios scene, Team cR has been the former home of the likes of SonicFox, Theo, Whiteboi, Cupcake, Dragon, HoneyBee, and Biohazard, and still currently sponsors Xarakamaka and Wound Cowboy.

A top player in Skullgirls: 2nd Encore, Super Smash Bros. for Wii U, and Marvel vs. Capcom: Infinite (and he’s also picked up Dragon Ball FighterZ), Dekillsage’s accomplishments include winning a myriad of Skullgirls tournaments, with his most recent results being a victory at Frosty Faustings XI. In MvC:I, he placed 3rd at NEC 18, won the Go For Broke Winter Championship, got 4th at Frosty Faustings X and 7th at Winter Brawl 12. In DBFZ, he finished 4th at Winter Brawl 12. You can see the announcement below:

We here at Shoryuken would like to wish Dekillsage all the best in his future endeavors, and hope he lands with another team soon.
