Urien is perhaps the DLC character that players enjoy more than any other. Players have been finding things non-stop since his release–even discovering his alternate costume–and today we add another entry into his book of tech.

desk has been working to push the limits of what the Vice President is capable of; in this video, he showcases how to exploit Urien’s throw-combo bug–previously shown used to combo into his CA–with the use of Reflector or two. It’ll be interesting to see if this obvious bug is left in the game, as it is pretty darn cool.

Urien also has “fuzzy guard” setups using Aegis Reflector, allowing him to hit overhead and combo in ways normally impossible.

This Saturday and Sunday in Japan is the second annual Toushinsai, hosted by Taito. A spiritual successor of sorts to Tougeki, Toushinsai is a large-scale arcade tournament featuring six of the most popular fighting games, as well as a number of side events. This year, Arc System Work’s yearly event ARC REVOLUTION CUP will be hosted as part of Toushinsai, including its four major fighting game titles. As an arcade-only event, this means that unfortunately Street Fighter V and The King of Fighters XIV will not be present; their respective predecessors however are included as part of the event.

As you would expect from a tournament of this size, some of the best in the world will be competing, including MarlinPie and Mynus, who will be representing the US in the Guilty Gear Xrd event. If you want to see players like Ogawa, FAB, Summit, Omito, Zadi, Nage, Koike, N-O, Yoshiki, Tsujikawa, Tetsuwo, Konan, Dora, Ao, Nobi, Yuu, Take, OZ and many more battle it out their respective games, you definitely want to catch this.

Day 1 events include DFCI, UNI[st], P4U2, GGXrdR and BBCF. Day 2 events included CC, KOF XIII, DOA5, NPBZ, Tekken 7 and USFIV, with the finals for each title taking place in the listed order.

Are you missing your fix of Ultimate Marvel vs. Capcom 3 brokenness? Don’t worry, we have you covered!

Wolverine Master just sent in some amazing new footage, including a Sentinel combo video showing the big-bodied robot in all his power and glory. While some of the combos involve team aerial combos starting with Vergil, Sentinel is prominently on display with some heavy-execution goodness.

To further contribute to this post, Wolverine Master also sent in new infinites for Captain America and Doctor Strange. So if you were looking for new ideas for these characters, these might be great to start.
