Some Injustice 2 tech and footage to help get you started.

After much anticipation, NetherRealm Studios’ sequel to Injustice: Gods Among Us has arrived at last! And naturally, the FGC is abuzz with this new title and finally learning its ins-and-outs firsthand. Here’s a sampling of what is starting to appear out there. Major story spoilers in the videos further below!

VesperArcade is already in there to help you get started with the game, particularly if NRS titles are new to you and you’re more used to the systems from Street Fighter titles. Here’s his walkthrough of Batman’s tutorial:

In this combo video by Cody Dickson–including meterless and meter-using combos–Scarecrow teaches Darkseid what fear feels like:

Of course, Echo Fox|Sonic Fox is tearing it up online–here’s some match footage of him filling his opponents with holes as Deadshot:

Here’s some Sonic Fox Joker footage (and more Deadshot), as well:

You know a game is a classic when even after two decades, new stuff continues to be found for it! Such is the case of Super Street Fighter II Turbo–which is the subject of this new video from legendary combo video maker Final Showdown.

The focus of the video below is Ken’s “funky kick” cross up. Most Super Turbo veterans know that Ken’s funky kicks, especially the half-circle forward version,  can cross up in certain situations. The new discovery in Final Showdown’s video expands on that, showcasing how the player can cancel the tail end of the funky kick’s animation into itself, allowing it to cross up in even more situations than normal.

Another glimpse at Ed’s capabilities–for whenever we can get our hands on him again!

The Street Fighter V second CFN beta has ended, and Ed is unfortunately locked away again, with no release date yet known. However, Bafael wasn’t quite finished with his exploration of Ed from the prior bread ‘n’ butter video, and has added another look at the Young Commander’s “leftovers”–specifically: following up on his tricky charged heavy punch.

Bafael also demonstrates out some fun stuff with Ed’s V-Trigger. Naturally, we don’t know how Ed may be altered before his official release, so we’ll have to wait and see how much of this remains in that version of the character.

Ryu has seen a decrease in effectiveness in season 2 of Street Fighter V. As such, it’s important for Ryu players to try to find anything that can give them an advantage!

One way for Ryu to gain such an advantage over his opponents is using the knockdown from his EX Hadouken to set up meaty hits on the opponent’s wakeup. In their latest video, NurseLee focuses on these setups utilizing the EX Hadouken. Specifically, the setups in the video below are designed to work on opponents who try to quick rise out of the EX fireball’s knockdown, as a double dash following it gives Ryu just the right timing to get the meaty hit in.
