Tecmo Koei’s, Dead or Alive 5: Last Round will soon be getting another star cross-over character, as King of Fighters icon Mai Shiranui dives onto the scene on September 13. Tecmo Koei released a new trailer today that displays some of the Lady Ninja’s fighting skills–along with her cheerleader outfit.

While The King of Fighters XV most recently took the kunoichi to the third dimension with the game’s new 3D models, her appearance in DOA5 LR brings her into a fully 3D fighting space.

A new set of costumes will also be released on September 13. These threads will be based on Mai’s teammates from The King of Fighters 2000.

Check out the new official trailer below!

Underrated by many and placed in low tier on many lists, Samus is a character with untapped potential in Super Smash Bros. for Wii U. Players like Johnny Westside and Afro Smash show that this character can put in serious work at a high level, and fellow Samuses are actively researching for ways to add more tricks to Samus’ Power Suit.

Muramishi is one of these researchers, finding a footstool combo for Samus which sees her using a bomb to bounce opponents back into her range in order to continue to pile on damage. What results is a stylish combo, where Samus essentially plays pinball with her victim, knocking them back and forth between bomb and beam cannon. Muramishi outlines how the attacking Samus can deal with certain DI, different character weights and sizes, along with what to do if someone tech rolls or getup attacks during the combo.
