Karin’s Ressenha can be a right pain to deal with, as its speed and status as an overhead means it can easily catch you out if you are not in the correct position. While you can punish it on reaction with a well placed crouching normal or a reversal like EX Sonic Scythe, careful players can bait the Ressenha and punish Karin with a heavy damage combo.

Every character can punish the recovery of the Ressenha with certain crouching normals, but it requires some practice to get the timing just right. MrHoward123 shows how every character, including Karin herself, can punish the Ressenha. MrHoward123 does note that it is quite difficult to punish the Ressenha on reaction, so it’s best to use fast crouching normals if you are just trying to react to the overhead.

If you are a fan of MrHoward123’s work, make sure to check out his videos detailing how to blow up V-Reversals with almost every character on the Street Fighter V roster.

Producing some high quality videos, both in terms of play and editing, the DMG Alliance is back again with another Super Smash Bros. for Wii U combo video. This time, they are focusing on DMG Maister and his lethal ROB, showing just how dangerous this robot can be when neutralize.exe is activated.

Gyro juggles, rocket dunks and brutally efficient edgeguards ensue in this montage, as the young ROB main from Texas displays his prowess piloting a killer toy robot. ROB does feel like one of those characters with untapped potential, as some of the ledge traps and off stage juggles it can get with its gyro are highly impressive. If you are impressed by the work DMG Alliance does, you can also check out this previous CMV, dedicated to CaptainZack’s Bayonetta.

Swapping X-Factor and DHCs for V-Triggers and Critical Arts, NYChrisG and PG|Filipino Champ have been dueling in the world of Street Fighter V, showing off their skills with Urien and Dhalsim respectively in the depths of the CFN. While F Champ has been adept with Dhalsim since the days of Street Fighter 4, ChrisG has had to channel the spirit of his Marvel 3 Morrigan into his Sonic Boom heavy Guile, as Sakura is not yet playable in SFV.

As seen in the video, he has started experimenting with the Illuminati boss to some success, with a recent seventh place finish at the Last Chance Qualifier at Red Bull Battle Grounds. The sets go fairly close, with ChrisG’s Urien holding its own against F Champ’s veteran yoga master and even pulling off some tricky Aegis Reflector setups over the course of the two sets.

Bayonetta’s presence in Super Smash Bros. for Wii U has sparked quite a few vigorous discussions in the Smash community, let me tell you. From the initial excitement of her launch, to the violent backlash to her playstyle and the joy at her nerfing earlier this year, the Umbra Witch has had a bit of a rough time of it since her inclusion in February of this year.

To chart these substantial shifts in thought about Bayonetta, GRTr4sh has charted the timeline of the character, showing just how massive these changes in opinion have been. She’s gone from the golden girl, to an overpowered mess that is ruining competitive Smash 4, to useless to a potential top three character in less than a year. What results is quite the hilarious video, displaying just how divisive Bayonetta has been in her short time in the Smash series.

Wario is a bit of an oddball in Super Smash Bros. for Wii U. His kit mainly revolves around playing defensively and trade occasional hits with his amazing aerial mobility, before closing in to send foes flying with a ripper of a Wario Waft. It’s not silent, but it’s very deadly and can KO foes as early as 50% near the edges of the blastzone. As Wario is his own most-played character, and because consistently landing a monster fart can prove quite difficult, My Smash Corner has made a video detailing some noxious Wario Waft setups.

These setups mostly involve a fully charged Waft, which takes roughly one minute and 50 seconds to charge, but its massive hitbox means it can counter almost every vertical and horizontal recovery option. Blowing up Wario’s bike with the Waft increases its hitbox, making this bung blast super dangerous. Wario can lock opponents in place easily with his dash attack and forward-air, so My Smash Corner lists all the percents where Wario is able to lock his opponents and lead into a fart kill.
