Inspired by a training session with Ben over at Splitkick, I began exploring The Flash in Injustice: Gods Among Us. With one bar and his trait fully charged, he can pull off some crazy combos through trait cancelling. This video is by no means meant to capture maximum damage or maximum swag, but for me to explore his potential. Check it out!

Scratching The Surface of Catwoman in Injustice: Gods Among Us
A few nights ago, I was playing a few games of Injustice: Gods Among Us with Aaron from Splitkick and Jeff, who is a Splitkick community member. Inspired by Jeff’s use of Catwoman that night, I decided to give the character a go. I really love her rushdown style, though I find her execution requirements to be pretty high.
This video isn’t meant to be a definitive list of the best or flashiest Catwoman combos, though they are a few that I came up with that graze some of the more advanced aspects of creating combos with her. Check it out and let me know what you think!
Jett’s Adventures into Linking and ‘Plinking’ With Street Fighter IV
If you’ve ever played Super Street Fighter IV’s trial mode, then odds are you’ve run into the type of challenge displayed above. After the challenge mode covers each character’s special moves, they go into a section on link combos. Pictured above is Cammy’s level 8 trial, which asks you to combo crouching hard punch into crouching medium kick. For the uninitiated, this seems like something that would be very easy to do. After hours of switching from character-to-character to see if these would get any easier, I gave up in frustration. I thought I was the worst Street Fighter player of all-time for not being able to make two button presses combo into each other. However, as I started to investigate, it turns out there’s a lot more to this than simply hitting two buttons in succession.
Street Fighter and the Execution Barrier
One of the players I admire most in the Street Fighter IV scene is Sako. He’s notorious for rarely ever leaving his house to play in tournaments, but he’s built quite a buzz for himself through God’s Garden online tournaments, his appearance at SoCal Regionals and from all of the YouTube exposure he gets from fans who upload all of his public matches. Why the buzz? Because he has the most amazing execution the world has ever seen in the Street Fighter IV series. He’s able to do combos that no one else in the world can do, and he can pull them off every time, in live matches, without breaking a sweat. The above combo video is an example of some of the stuff that only he can do.
Watching Sako play as Cammy inspired me to hop into training mode and give her a shot. I was hoping to at least master one Sako-like combo before moving onto something else. I didn’t even come close.
