Gathering clips from Bowser players from all over the world, the Project M Bowser Discord has created this special combo video, made of the best clips of the Koopa King styling on his foes. While Bowser is rated fairly low on the PM tier list, his ferocious hits and aerial command grab allow him to get some brutal edgeguards if his positioning is right.

Seeing clips from notable Bowsers like Can~D, Frost|Odds, SS|American Bowser and Jorge, you can see just how devastating this fire breathing turtle can be when he gets going. If you are at all inspired to try Bowser out after watching this community combo montage, poke your head in the Bowser Discord and learn how to play the Mario villain properly.

If you want a recap of this year in Project M, give reslived’s 2016 retrospective a watch, as it charts the efforts of the PM community to keep the game thriving after development officially stopped.

In the Street Fighter IV series, Guile–along with any other character with charge Ultras and Supers–were able to execute their Supers or Ultras immediately following their dashes. This resulted in many things, full screen projectile punishes, as well as other punishes and combos that were otherwise not possible. For Guile, that allowed him to Focus Attack Dash Cancel into Ultra 2 after a flash kick.

For a long time, it looked like this technique had been removed from Street Fighter V. That is, until desk and TOOLASSISTED got their hands dirty. They found that if you perform three forward inputs in the dash, as opposed to the two that was required in SFIV, then charged dash Critical Art is possible with Guile. This opens up a whole new world to Guile mains.

This just in from the, “Don’t Ever Jump,” department: You should probably be thinking of different methods of approach against Juri in Street Fighter V Season Two. It does appear that Juri has some strong anti-airs in the new season. Not only that, but she can juggle for a solid amount of damage off a simple crush counter anti-air or air to air, as discovered by Kim Hyun-ku.

As a bonus, here is a solid 40% meterless Juri combo based off both normal hit and crush counter.

From Street Fighter III on, Urien has been notorious for his damage potential off resets. Street Fighter V is no exception, as he has been an absolute beast with his mixup potential off of resets.

Here we see some newly created resets that add more insanity to Urien’s arsenal. These include setups off of non-teched knockdowns and backrolled knockdowns, which greatly increase Urien’s repertoire of creating more damage faster. No matter what, you’re going to see what will make Urien dangerous leading into this season of Capcom Pro Tour.

Seven female fighters come together to do massive damage in this combo music video for The King of Fighters XIV by YouTuber ArtificialStar. The lovely KOF ladies take turns making the most of their Max Modes and Climax Cancels in this three-minute clip, set to the tune of the Bayonetta theme Mysterious Destiny. Though it is debatable which of the brawlers in the video is more mysterious, it is clear that they all have their unique advantages.
