SNK recently held a series of “world premiere” events for The King of Fighters XIV in Osaka and Tokyo, Japan. The events were the first time many players would be able to experience the full release build of The King of Fighters XIV, complete with the balance changes that are coming to the game via a release day patch.

For those who missed the live stream of the events, Gato Ray has uploaded the archive from the Tokyo event’s stream onto his YouTube channel. Highlights include a special guest match between Nemo and Kindevu. While both players are more known for other games, both are also veterans of The King of Fighters series.

In addition to this, the footage also contains an interview with some members of the development team, specifically artist Eisuke Ogura, and battle designer Hidetoshi “Neo_G” Ishizawa.

For those looking for specific parts of the stream, the Nemo versus Kindevu match starts at 28 minutes, meanwhile more event matches start at 1 hour and 3 minutes. Finally, the interview with Ogura and Ishizawa starts at 1 hour and 41 minutes.

In his latest montage, XusesGB demonstrates the punishing potential of Ken’s rushdown game. Most of the matches in the video end with either stun combos or perfects, and the ones that don’t still show why Mr. Masters is practically the embodiment of rushdown. Another great thing this video highlights is the importance of fundamentals: though Ken’s style is flashy on the surface, most of the damage acquired in these online matches seem to come from hard reads, good footsies and sharp reactions.

Check out these clips that make even the spectator fear Ken’s flaming fists:
