Everyone has a fighting chance
The most fun I’ve had with Marvel Strike Force has been raiding with a competent Alliance. Pretty much every other aspect of the game is something you play solo, but raids can require a bit of coordination with your Alliance to pull off well. This week, we’ll be talking about raids in MSF and the sorts of characters you’ll want to field for your raid team.
Last week, we discussed my latest mobile obsession, Marvel Strike Force, a game that is basically Star Wars: Galaxy of Heroes for Marvel fans. If you read the article and found your interest piqued, you’re in luck, because this week we’ll be offering some tips on how to best get started with the game.
One of the standout Tekken 7 players at Evo Japan last month was Team Nightmare’s Gura, who made it to top 8. The Korean player has made a name for himself in Tekken 7 playing Leo, Lili, Kazumi, and Geese Howard.
Now, Gura has released a series of videos where he “leaks the secrets” of some of these characters. Specifically, the videos below go over playing Leo, Lili, and Kazumi — no guide for Geese yet.
Take note that the guides below are in Korean, but with English captions thanks to translator suoder.
Gura himself constantly streams and creates content for Tekken 7, so interested viewers should check out both his Twitch and YouTube channels.

It’s probably no surprise that a game like Dragon Ball FighterZ continues to pour a deluge of new content to our inbox, at a much greater rate then nearly any other game release we’ve seen. Much like the game it clearly draws inspiration from (Marvel vs. Capcom 2), DBFZ is a sandbox of combo possibilities and nuanced system mechanics. That it’s for one of the most beloved, nostalgic franchises of all-time probably doesn’t hurt, either.
Let’s check out what the FGC cooked up today!
superscience890 breaks down the health regeneration properties of DBFZ.
Persona Entertainment brings their first combo videos to the list with their Vegeta and Goku Black videos.
rooflemonger has two guides for us today: tips and tricks for Android 21, and a team-building guide for beginners.
Peter Souvannarath breaks down the various properties of the Sparking Blast comeback mechanic.
Speaking of Sparking, here’s an example of what it can do for you: Tien’s “touch of death” courtesy of KOG Productions.
Love Android 18? If you want to learn her Robotic ways, FightersLegend‘s video is a great primer. Once you have an understanding of how she (And her pseudo-assist, 17!) works, check out Glideadon‘s Snapback setup!
And closing us out is Y. Xiao. Beerus has been one of the least-submitted characters here at SRK and, based off what I’ve seen both here and beyond, I’m not sure why. He has big damage, wild okizeme, and the most smug face this side of West City. If you want a sneak peek on what a God of Destruction brings to DBFZ, this is a great place to look:
As always, if you see anything worth sharing, let us know by submitting a tip for our next roundup. Thanks everyone!

One of my favorite things to do when playing any new game is to try and make work some weird, gimmicky build I’ve cooked up in my head. For Star Wars: Battlefront II, this has manifested in my quest to make melee work on a Trooper class.

NBSilentShadow over at Drunkardshade.com has taken on the unenviable task of compiling the top moves of each Tekken character all on one page. This living document, which also houses several resource links for frame data and Tekken Zaibatsu’s Discord server, can be found here. It was created in collaboration with several specialist players, and known names within the Tekken community, each player outlined by the character listed.
It’s worth noting that these move lists, while great for a quick reference if you’re picking up a new character, are based on the arcade version of the game. The console version has had several stealth changes that are also being compiled on TekkenZaibatsu’s main thread.

We’re still up to our eyeballs in Injustice 2 tech! Much of the content showing up from NRS-heads now seems to be more along the reset side, then just pure combo videos. Let’s dive in and see what’s happening!
scarsunseen24 has a high damage anti-wakeup corner setup off a high damage corner combo with Joker.
VesperArcade is back with their beginner combo guides, this time focusing on the spookiest character in the game, Scarecrow.
… speaking of guides, once you have VesperArcade’s combos down, you can jump into TrueUnderDawgGaming‘s strategy guide to learn about Scarecrow’s neutral and theory!
DomBlazee found a pretty amusing invisibility bug within the Firestorm mirror. Happens at 5:51 and 6:44.
Dawid Wesołowski has mid juggle crossups into stage interactions for his flashy combos with Supergirl.
Clark Luthor wants to remind you that Black Adam still has a great corner cross-up game after his hard knockdowns.
And lastly, The Kompetitor shows off some restand mix-ups for Flash, both with and without his trait.
With all this tech for nearly every character flying out of the woodwork, it’s going to be really interesting to watch the meta develop in tournaments the next month or so!
Last week, we wrote about an addicting new Star Wars game called Star Wars: Force Arena. We noted that the game was still in soft launch at the time, but the game has since released worldwide on Android and iOS, so this week we’re back with some tips for starting out in the game.
