  • We're back playing more Killer Instinct! Today I'm running a first to 5 against one of my twitch mods! He's got a lot more experience than me, so I hope I stand a chance! Let me know if you wanna see more KI content leading up to Evo Online!

    The "Oh God" when JM sees he is about to get lit up by a long or brutal combo had me cracking up.
    I have no idea why.
    It was sort of a mix of "sadness" and "wtf am I getting hit with now" with a dash of "for the love of all that is holy, please make it stop".

    I love me some killer instinct. I feel like I've seen a lot of other fighting games, and sometimes they feel samey. But almost every KI character feels vastly different then others within the roster, and it's combo system is so different from other fighting game. I really love the content. Thanks, JM.

    He's breaking you so much because you keep doing heavy auto doubles you can switch those up with lights and mediums and the same goes for links (special moves) and also if you get at least 2 hits when his health says danger whether it was already in danger or goes into danger while hitting him you can ultra immediately you don't have to wait until combo is over

I don’t understand what I’m watching though lol and that intimidates me tbh. Usually by watching gameplay I can get a good grasp on what the mechanics are and how the game is supposed to be played but good lord KI is like on another level. WTH is happening? Lol

    So Eyedol was one of the two original ultimate beings in the backstory of the original Killer Instinct, with Gargos being the other. Something happened to free him and for the second game, Gargos was revealed to be the Tiger Spirit Jago was following which explains how he got free. After that I got no clue what's going on, I just hope we can fight those two bastards against each other

    • @fishingwithkirby3989

      eyedol was once a man that along with tusk was choosen by the Ichoriens to protected the astral planes (basically space) as a watchmen of the gods eons ago. infused with astral energy he protected worlds from other dimension from rogue astral beings such as gargos.
      Along with tusk eyedol defeated gargos in one of his inter dimensional invasions, after taking some core powers he send gargos back to his realm, however his heart was corrupted by the new found power and transformed into a hideous monster as a result and began a rampage across the land.
      Tusk lured eyedol into a trap and banished him into the astral plane. gargos recovered from his battle and harness shadow energy and slaughtered the Ichoriens and freeing eyedol. gargos was smarter this time and had eyedol chase a chimera before confronting him. even then the battle was so great it was like the explosion of stars.
      in the end gargos cut eyedols head in half but his spirit escaped before gargos can capture it. millions of years later Kan ra found the ogre's body and resurrected him as a slave but his magic wasn't powerful enough to control him and so he runs ramped once again across the world.
      if anyone is interested in his back story.

    Wasn't Eyedol the boss from KI1? It's been so long since I played at the now long gone arcade. But if he was, that's an uphill battle to beat him. Unless they nerfed his power and moves .

      yeah he was then his head got cut in half so now he acts differently. Only half his head works at 1 time. the red side is pure melee and the blue is a zoner and he sometimes flips so both players have to be paying attention.

    @4:44 worst shadow counter in the game, not even close. And that's after they buffed it.
    She used to stay in one spot, amd it would miss ALL THE TIME! They changed it to where she now moves forward, and it still misses. Her shadow counter should always have been her dragon dance.
