LiangHUBBB Starts the Year Off with Funny & Cool Moments Episode 98

After taking some time off for the holidays, LinagHUBBB is back with his first 2017 edition of the Funny & Cool Moments series: episode 98. Featuring a mix of current and classic titles, including Street Fighter V, Tekken 7: Fated Retribution, The King of Fighters XIV, Capcom vs. SNK 2 and Marvel vs. Capcom 2, among others.

Some of the more interesting moments include a pair of Vegas scoring a Double KO with their Critical Arts hitting at the same time, Tracer and Sombra taking their battles from Overwatch into the ring of Street Fighter V, King hitting a Home Run with one of Akuma’s Gohadoukens, a combo into the recently removed Ramon LP Dash Cancel Infinite, and Sagat being frozen in mid-air when trying to punish Vega’s Ultra II. Ibuki and Urien show off some crazy V-Trigger corner sequences, Guile’s hair seems to explode after a victory, Urien fully air parries Yun’s Genei Jin, and an Akuma player relentlessly taunts a Guile with multiple shimmies.

Towards the end we also witness the craziest Abel sequence I’ve ever seen in Ultra Street Fighter IV, as well as Echo Fox’s Justin Wong inciting a real-life rage quit in Street Fighter Alpha 2 at 2 Old 2 Furious with Rose’s Soul Illusion, against BOTB EMP Hiro! Be warned that these clips do have some NSFW language; if you haven’t seen his best of 2016 video, catch it here.

Let us know your favorite moments in the Comments!

Catch a Claw to the Face with These MAO Matches in Super Street Fighter II Turbo

It’s no secret that Claw (Vega) is one of the strongest characters in Super Street Fighter II Turbo. His wall dive is difficult to block, and he has great normal moves that can lock down shotos in the corner–if done properly.

Japanese player MAO is one of the best at doing what’s most broken with the character. Well-known for his win at the 2012 Tournament of Legends at Evolution, he is still bouncing off the walls today. Here are a few of his most recent matches, showing off how dangerous he is with the character.

Enjoy Skullgirls Matches? Check Out This Skullgirls 2nd Encore Community Kumite

The tradition of holding a community-run Kumite–a series of sets one after another, against one particular player–exists as a means to test endurance and adaptability. In fighting games, a Kumite can improve your ability to adapt rapidly, while also testing matchup knowledge and mental fortitude. The tradition of Kumite matches has become popular in the Skullgirls scene, promoting one player as they are tried through a gauntlet of sets.

Today we have one such Kumite, hosted by KPB|McPeanuts, featuring the Canadian Squigly/Big Band player Yaya. The sets take place online, with commentary from both McPeanuts and Yaya. and features a lot of strong play from various characters, for over three hours. It’s worth a watch–but mind the slight NSFW language!

McPeanuts has several other Kumite sets up on his YouTube channel, so be sure to check out his playlists for similar compilations.
