Learn Some Early Dhalsim Combos in Street Fighter V

One of the returning Street Fighter V characters that players may have trouble coming to grips with is Dhalsim. Thanks to a greatly revamped moveset, the yoga master handles quite differently than his previous incarnations, relying more on long range setups than just pure zoning.

To help prospective Dhalsims figure out how he can deal damage, EMPEROR C0W shared a video that goes over some of his early combos. Here, he covers Dhalsim’s most basic bread and butter combos as well as some more advanced strategies that utilize teleport mixups, V-Trigger, and Critical Art.

Please remember that, as this is based on the beta, some of this may may change before release.

Street Fighter V launches for PlayStation 4 and PC on February 16.

Mcfly Shows How Interactables Can Create Safe Pressure in Mortal Kombat X

One element that has become a staple of NetherRealm Studios’ recent fighters, such as Mortal Kombat X, are interactable background elements that players can use mid-match.

In his latest video, Elite Tournament Chile’s Mcfly demonstrates an interesting concept that uses the whiffed startup animation of certain interactables as a way to continue to apply safe pressure.

The exhibition below specifically demonstrates some examples of this with Kung Lao, however the concept itself is applicable to all characters in the game. As a bonus, Mcfly also shows how using the full animation of movement-based interactables can keep a character safe after applying pressure or, as is the case with the Jinsei Chamber, even punish reversals.

Catch a Slow-Motion Look at Street Fighter V’s Flashy Critical Arts

With the removal of the Ultras introduced in Street Fighter IV, Supers (now known as Critical Arts) are once again in the forefront in Street Fighter V.

In a new video, Tipsy Sparrow helps us get a closer, longer look at these moves by slowing down their animations. This allows us to the amount of detail that the developers actually put into these extensive attacks. This includes almost every launch character with the exception of F.A.N.G thanks to their inclusion in the latest beta,

As a bonus, Tipsy Sparrow also provides a slow-motion version of the infamous Evo Moment #37 parry with Chun-Li and Ryu, so be sure to stick around until the end.

Killer Instinct’s First Season Free for Xbox Live Gold Subscribers in January

Here’s some great news for any fighting game fans who might be getting a Xbox One or Xbox Live Gold from Santa this Christmas: Killer Instinct’s first season will be free download for Gold subscribers during the entire month of January.

Developed by Double Helix Games in conjunction with Microsoft Studios, season one gives players access to classic character like Jago, Sabrewulf, Glacius, Thunder, Spinal, Orchid, and Fulgore, as well as newcomer Sadira and all the updates that have been released thus far. While there’s since been a whole new round of content released by Iron Galaxy Studios, this should form a good foundation to decide if you want more.

Killer Instinct currently available on Xbox One, with a third season in development.

Rock Out to These Extended Stage Themes from Street Fighter V

While we’ve heard a lot about the new character themes in Street Fighter V, we haven’t heard so much about the game’s stage themes, which are pretty rockin’ in their own right. Vesper Arcade’s most recent uploads address this oversight, sharing extended versions for Apprentice Alley and Underground Arena from the most recent beta.

The former carries the same guitar heavy vibe as most of the game’s other themes but does so in a way that sounds very representative of the region it depicts, like something you’d hear played on a sitar. The latter, on the other hand, goes for a more electronic sound, fitting the stage’s underground club theme.

For more, ADAPT Chance previously shared the Hillside Plaza and main menu themes.

Watch an Online Street Fighter V Match from Both Players’ Perspectives

One of the new features being touted by Capcom in Street Fighter V is their new ‘Kagemusha’ netcode. By using a rollback functionality first pioneered by Tony “Ponder” Cannon in GGPO, Kagemusha promises smoother netplay compared to that offered by Street Fighter IV.

Now, thanks to a video by BR Chernobly, we can see that netcode in action.

The video below shows a online match as it plays out from two perspectives. With this, you can clearly see rollbacks occur when the game detects a desync. While somewhat jarring on a visual level, this means that the game doesn’t have to use variable input delay to keep matches in sync.

Cooperation Cup to Host Largest Street Fighter III: 3rd Strike Tournament Yet in January

January will see the return of legendary Street Fighter III: 3rd Strike tournament Cooperation Cup, and the latest installment of this 5-on-5 event promises to be the biggest one yet.

The 14th Cooperation Cup will feature a record breaking 445 players split into 89 teams, meaning top 3rd Strike talent like MOV, Tominaga, Boss, Kokujin, Pierrot, Vanao, Rikimaru, KSK, and Nuki will have to face an even larger pool of players than last year’s record-breaking event.

And that’s not all. The annual Pre-Cooperation Cup tournament, which regularly features teams comprised of a single character, is also bigger than last year’s with 62 teams.

The 14th Cooperation Cup is scheduled for January 10. The full list of participants can be found below or on the official Google Doc.

Xian Demonstrates a Parry Option Select for Ryu in Street Fighter V’s Beta

Ever since Ryu’s Mind’s Eye V-Skill in Street Fighter V was shown to be a parry, more than a few veteran players wondered if this would allow for parry based option selects similar to Street Fighter III: 3rd Strike, and, well, it seems that prediction has come to pass.

In a recent tweet, Razer’s Xian shared a way in which Ryu can use his V-Skill to set up an option select between a parry, a throw tech, and just plain old blocking.  The technique is done by holding back (or down back) and pressing the input for the throw tech almost immediately after activating the V-Skill, similar to how players would plink normals in Street Fighter IV.

As Xian demonstrates in his tweet below, this option select allows Ryu to deal with both a poke and a throw attempt with a single motion. More importantly, a successful parry allows Ryu to punish with a Shoryuken and, even though it’s not shown below, cancel that into his super, similar to certain option selects in 3rd Strike.

This is obviously not a perfect option and may not even make it into the final game, but it’s certainly something to keep an eye on if you plan to take Street Fighter V seriously. Let us know what you think in the comments.

Here’s How Street Fighter Plays with the Steam Controller’s Motion Controls

It was recently announced that Street Fighter V will support both Valve’s Steam Controller, causing some in the community to wonder just how the game might handle with the peripheral.

This new video, by ConstableBento, shows one possibility. Here, he not only uses Valve’s unique controller to play Ultra Street Fighter IV, but he also does so by using motion controls for directional inputs.

The result, while certainly not fit for high-level play, is still quite functional, allowing ConstableBento to reliably pull off special moves.

The control scheme is available here should you want to try it out for yourself.

Momochi and Fuudo Face Off in Street Fighter V

A day before the current beta hit, Capcom and 4Gamer held a special Street Fighter V stream featuring none other than Evil Geniuses’ Momochi and Razer’s Fuudo going at it in the upcoming title.

For those of us who missed the original broadcast on Niconico, the developers have provided an archived version. Watch as both players try out a number of characters (including a few not in the third beta like Karin and R. Mika) and figure out how to best use them over the course of their matches.
