Keep in mind, there are no reveals or anything shown here. This is strictly to see matchups and mid-high level competitive KI play to showcase the new mechanics.

Can't wait, should get a good look at all the match ups with the new characters.

These Rash juggles are pretty sick, glad they added more juggles / air combos into Season 3.

Poodlestrike · Mar 6, 2016

Tuning in now.

Poker Face · Mar 6, 2016

production values are so good for this. keits is the best lol

The Flash · Mar 6, 2016

So much stuff going in the background of Arbiter's stage. It's awesome.

.la1n · Mar 6, 2016

Game looks so good when you can finally watch it streamed in higher quality.

Can Rash tongue projectiles out of the air?

He tongue projectiles like Spinal's skulls and Arbiter's grenades. I think Keits said that he can also tongue Arbiter's carbine shots but that it's really hard to do.

Poodlestrike · Mar 6, 2016

Rash finally won one!

:O

.la1n · Mar 6, 2016

TJ Combo's stage with the new lighting engine looks great.

The more i look at Kim Wu the more i dislike her design and general moveset

I kind of feel the opposite. Didn't really like her at KIWC and starting to like her design more now.

I feel the complete opposite. I love her redesign(though the fact that she's a design student makes me laugh every time), and I love her gameplay. Good buttons, ways to make her specials safe, and she has crazy explosive damage potenial.

To top it off, she had a command throw(albeit a breakable one) that starts a combo! She's my kind of character.

Yeah I'm with you, she looks good in motion with the facial animations. I think she could still use some better textures on her skin/face to make her look less unfinished but it's not bad at all.

The Flash · Mar 6, 2016

I'm sure the version of Kim that we're seeing now is not the final one. Her face and Tusk's could very well get buffed before release.

Sadira doesn't seem all that nerfed, lol.

Sadira is Shovel Knight confirmed

This is a very high quality stream. New lighting looks great, new characters looking fun and some gpod mid to high level play on display. Anyone into fighting games on the fence about this game should tune in for a bit...

T.O.P · Mar 6, 2016

Spinal's stage looks 10 times better with the new lightning

Also Tusk is growing on me

One thing that bugs me about the stream is the sound, the buttons are so loud I can't hear the music XD

Scotia · Mar 6, 2016

Tusk's face is rough.

Yeah but it looks like they scarified Spinal's ghost crew

waiting for the chad kroeger face on tusks body photshop

DrDogg · Mar 6, 2016

I'm watching this Tusk vs. Thunder match and it just makes it so clear that Tusk looks so much worse than the other characters.

By comparison, Thunder looks FAR more detailed than Tusk. I don't know what happened there, but Tusk does not look good at all.

Poodlestrike · Mar 6, 2016

Maaan, c'mon.

Thunder vs. Tusk is a really fun matchup to watch, btw. They've both got a little bit of that slow and mighty warrior thing.

Nori Chan · Mar 6, 2016

Sad I can't catch this stream for a majority of it. Please keep us updated guys maybe even with screenshots.

Poodlestrike · Mar 6, 2016

Okay, THAT was some cool shit. Thunder ducking under Tusk's swing.

What does Tusk's Instinct do, again?

Yea I really hope they fix up his character model. I wonder if he'd look better facing the front

Poodlestrike · Mar 6, 2016

Aria needs a few more buffs methinks.

edit: Yeah, 1 hit 28% combos is nuts.

BananasWithGuns · Mar 6, 2016

Just now tuning in, are they going to fix the audio? The button mashing is pretty rough.

It looks like the lighting detail on the character model isn't finished yet. That was definitely apparent in the Thunder vs Tusk fight where Tusk looked flat in contrast to Thunder and the stage until it rained.

Aria and Fulgore's stages looks dramatically different after the relighting though, I'm really glad they redid it after seeing these results.

Troubled Bat · Mar 6, 2016

So, I just jumped into this at Glacius vs Maya fight. The lighting there makes her look so bronze.

From the stages I've seen so far with the new lighting, Cinder's stage is the one where I prefered the older version.

Snackawho · Mar 6, 2016

Tusk looks great. Just need to adjust his face a bit. Something about it is really off

Thats how microphones work, unfortunately.

Snackawho · Mar 6, 2016

Also love the work they've done on the new lightning. All the stages and characters look so much better. Gives the game an entirely new feel
