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

Glacius still doesn’t have that slinky fireball ¬¬

Match dropped at the character select screen and now im in jail

I believe you’d have to quit 15% after 10 matches. Do you disconnect a lot?

That Glacius alt costume almost got me as hype as the Fulgore tease. I’m going to be rocking that 100% of the time now. That is extremely solid.

Sabrewulf is definitely legit too, I like that he looks “plasticy” like the old one.

I didn’t realize this was going to be out so early in the day, need to leave work to check this crap out!

Looks like they truly didn’t implement any kind of fix for RQ, and are instead just looking at the total % of disconnects, regardless of how you disconnected, and if it’s above 15% you are screwed.

So basically when I was playing ranked the last time, and played 6 matches, losing 2, and having 4 ragequits, that would put me in a 66% disconnect rate, then 40% after 10 matches, and put me in jail.

Then say I get out of jail, and the first ranked match I play I get ragequit on again. Whoops, back to jail for me because my DC will now be at a 36% rate. 2 more days I can’t play ranked without ever ragequitting once.

And this could repeat quite a bit until my ratio is back down.

Sounds like a big time hack fix that is going to backfire big time.

^ I don’t play many RQ (because I suck), but it is enough to keep me away from playing ranked matches until it gets fixed.

Now is the Jail thing just for rank matches or does that include friendly?

This one Sabrewulf raped me. He Counter Breaker’d every CB I did… never seen that happen ever. So not only does he have predictable setups, but now people can use that predictability against you. Great.

But anyway, I’m disappointed Spinal only has one legit aa. Well, 2 if you count the shadow version. That shadow teleport so godly… people don’t even realize yet that it can be done from the air.

Man, Spinal is fun (technical as hell but fun). I haven’t really played KI this month, I tried online and got beat by people laming it out. Shit that I usually can beat. I gotta play more…tough when you just get into a relationship with my girl. Time is just going away. Blah.

Spinal is quite fun to use with the time I had so far.

(Old Skool) Glacius fans should be quite happy with that alt skin, looks good imo.
Sabrewulf’s… not so much… imho, that skin looks like it came from another game.

I’ll just leave this here …

…Stop mashing combo breaker??? It takes two to get hit by a counter breaker you know.

I got to play for like an hour before work this morning and I think Spinal is really fun, but ghostly manuals aren’t that great and I swear the timing for linkers with him is a lot weirder than the rest of the cast. I was having a lot of fun with skull setups and absorb setups.

In practical use ya, not so good they can be broken but after a counter breaker or lock out the damage from the ghostly manuals really add up. In training mode i tried a combo with all hard auto doubles, ghostly manuals and hard linkers two shadow (sword) linkers and the sword swipe ender 74% damage…

I wasn’t mashing. I’d wait like 6-8 hits and he’d still time it right.

Likewise, I been watching streams today where dudes have been getting countered 3-4 times in a row, and they all say that’s never happened before.

Well that’s real life… When I look at friends who have kids already, you’re time is almost eaten away, so it’s not that bad yet :wink:

So apparently the stream is already on, and here I thought it would start at its usual 2 PM unless I missed something.

Will be interesting to see how people use Spinal a month from now. I see a lot of people overusing his divekick right now despite how unsafe it is.

I wish his overhead fireball was faster.

Oh, anything special? Im too busy playing with Spinal lol

Not right now, they’re playing some Exhibition and the usual Q&A.
