First Look at Shadow Jago Boss in KI, plus new 'Ultimate Combo' finisher

[AcidGlow]

With the update that Killer Instinct received most recently there's a much of surprises! One of them is the Shadow Jago boss character and an Ultimate Combo! First off though, this boss Shadow Jago is not just a Jago swap; he offers several new moves including different fireballs, slide kick and more.

Regarding his 'Ultimate Combo', it's a cinematic take on a show similar to a super in Injustice. Have a look!

And here's the commentary on the boss battle

I cannot wait to be home.

Do we know what to do to set this up yet?

I did a run through on medium arcade with sadira, 2 perfects, 5 ultras, didn't die, and nothing happened at the end.

Wat am I missing....

I think he mentions that you need to have all three endings for your character. The one where you Ultra Orchid, and not Fulgore, the one where you Ultra Fulgore and not Orchid, and the one where you Ultra Both.

Yeah but I don't know if those are sadiras rivals or not.

I have 2 and 3. Not sure what to do to get 1.

Looks like it's time to grind that Arcade Mode.

 

[G4S KT]

That slide is ridiculous holy shit

 

[TakeAChance]

That slide is ridiculous holy shit

That better be tamed down if it becomes his actual moveset lol

I believe you also have to go through arcade on medium without dying to get to Shadow Jago.

Shadow Jago........ stealing Orchids slide since 2014 and making it better..... lol

Yeah it's like Oni's command dash from AE and orchids slide had a bastard child.

 

[NRF CharlieMurphy]

Is there anywhere we can get some release notes?

Jago and Orchid both had a slide in KI2, I thought the might have nerfed Jago be removing his slide.

you're crying for nerfs already, smh, its obvious that the move is unsafe to shadow counters and should be buffed with armor and 60 frames of invincibility, then it MAY be viable.

 

[rpg]

it will be pretty cool if they add the ultimate combos back

 

[MKF30]

Nice, can't wait to try out Scor...uhh Shadow Jago

 

[RikoLaw]

So will this make regular shadow jago playable for those who don't have the dlc?

 

[NRF CharlieMurphy]

I have a feeling we will get ultimate combo's before Season 2. I'm hoping at least. They are much shorter and sweeter than an Ultra. I'd really like it if they take them in the MK route.... cuz having Shadow Jago cut you in half would be sick.

 

[VenomX-90]

The announcer that says "Ultimate" in this game will never compare against the original announcer in the first KI.

Your rival is the character before Fulgore. For all characters.

 

[XXFleshtrapXX]

Soo......does this mean we get Ultimate combos for all other characters at some point?!?
