Killer Instinct XB1: Season 2 hits October 15th. 20 dollars for Combo, 40 dollars for Ultra

Well Killer Instinct in general had one of the most demanding set of motions for any fighting game. Killer Instinct 2 had really weird stuff like df,d,db+ a button. In KI1 you had Primal Rage style negative edge motions for the shadow moves where you held the button down first, then did the motion for the move.

In general Killer Instinct had a lot of really arbitrary rules for its combo system and special moves and they’re trying to marginalize that issue in the new game.

If this song was a woman I’d throw her down and have my way with her in every way known to hentai.

Is that confirmed as Sadira’s theme? Because that is really awesome.

Yeah that’s her theme. Mick Gordon already posted snippets of it on his vine.

This is another version of the song that someone else uploaded after DH removed it. You hear Orchid’s old song at the end of it also.

Honestly, that trailer would’ve gotten the fan base even more Hyped.

I’m wondering which moves will she have, though. Her moveset from KI to KI2 changed drastically, but I wouldn’t mind these:

Lasaken - KI
Flick Flak - KI
Rising Knee - KI2
Sliding Kick - KI2
Flaming Cat Teleport - New

Sadira’s design seems to have changed slightly from the Thunder trailer (I think she was wearing some kind of lower face mask in that trailer; personally I liked that better than those odd embellishments around her eyes).

The character in the thunder trailer wasn’t actually Sadira, it was one of her minions.

However, DH has changed the designs from version to version according to feedback, so we don’t know how much changed from A to B.

It also lets us know that they are deliberately hiding things in the teasers, which makes me think about the Orchid reveal. My guesses about orchid based on the trailer:
-Firecat may be her instinct mode
-Those goggles might be an accessory.

Yeah I feel like they’ll probably give Orchid a new move or two. It remains to be seen if she’ll still turn into the firecat as a special or if they’ll make her use the firecat as a projectile now (since it’s difficult to make 3d figures shapeshift).

That’s because the girl in the trailer was one of Sadira’s minions. It wasn’t actually her. Supposedly part of the reason she was changed was because of people crying about MK lookalike also.

Now that I think about it, yeah, it makes sense. The Laser Cat is probably her Instinct and probably works similar to Thunder’s Shadow Dash.

I actually would guess if Firecat is her instinct, it will fight with her. It could be complicated like BB’s Carl, or it could be more simple like Yang’s Seiei Enbu.

It can’t be that difficult, they already have Glacius liquifying… I’m sure they could pull off the transformation through some trickery lol.

Dat next gen.

Damn, Sadira looks like my type of character and we are getting another saxy character next :smiley:

I’m so glad DH didn’t follow NRS Man-face female designs. I’m sure even they didn’t want to stoop that low lol. I’m digging Sadira’s BGM a lot with its awesome creepiness. It reminds me of those European experimental creepy noise bands that prevents you from sleeping after listening.

I really hope DH stops by Super Arcade soon with the Sadira build.

So what’s the next major event that’s coming up so we can see Orchid in action?

New York Comic-Con is the last event before the release of the X1.

Sadira will cause a lot of rage quits lol

And dat music, best one so far!

Yeah some people are already afraid of the whole Marvel Spider Man effect she seems to have on the game where you’re going to have to be trying to swat her from the air. Hopefully they figure a way to balance her air movement so she’s actually fightable for the more grounded characters.

I’ve heard rumors that DH may not be going to NYCC so if that’s the case, we probably only have a Super Arcade left until the game comes out.

This guy, always good for a laugh. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nWFkGL2IBlA

Max’s passion warms my heart. Good to see a person doing what they love.

I guess I’m the only person that liked the veil, I hope it’s an accessory.

I guess ya, in the context of a fighting game, it does kinda scream MK, but it’s a good look for a female assassin.
