Blue Blurs for Life!
Comin' at you with another textual stream for Killer Instinct Season 2! This one is a simple Q&A session with Ishmae1 a.k.a. Mr. Adam Isgreen from Microsoft. Many questions have surfaced ever since the semi-confirmed appearance of Cinder in the Season 2 trailer video, along with the public statement that the silhouette of "Shadow Jago" is in fact NOT Shadow Jago. You also are treated to the second-to-last piece of concept art for "Not-A-Mummy," with the promise that he will be fully revealed next week. Check out Mr. Isgreen's post below and share your thoughts!

Hello everyone,

It’s Friday the 7th of November, and time for another Killer Instinct Season 2 textual stream!

So what are we up to? Well, Kraig showed you a ton of the UI work that’s in progress for the 2.1 updatelater this month, and that’s going to continue throughout the season as we refine and add features. I’ll say “pardon our dust” for coming along on the ride with us that is shaping season 2’s content and features up until it’s “done” around April . By getting in early though, you get to take part in the development and get your opinion heard directly by the development team at IG and MS.


Q&A!

  • Will there be an upgrade option from Combo to Ultra? Yes, we’re putting it into place right now. More details soon.
  • What is Cinder? Why is his hand mutated? The experiments performed on Ben in our new story were a bit more… radical… than his previous incarnation.
  • Is KI in EVO 2015?! The EVO participant list hasn’t been announced yet. We certainly hope we’ll be there. How you can help ensure we’re there is support your local tournament scene and spread the good word about KI. We’re one year in from a 20 year hiatus – that’s a lot of catch-up work we need to do!
  • Are you fixing bugs? Why is <insert bug here> not fixed yet?We are fixing bugs and tweaking balance with every monthly update, but because of lead time we can only do so much every month. Please continue to give us feedback and let us know of weird things you see. They will be addressed!
  • What’s up with the blue guy that looks like Shadow Jago? It’s not Shadow Jago. It’s also not Gargos. For those of you that have Shadow Jago, you can see he’s comfortably placed in the S1 cast with his own slot and will remain there. The new… thing… is part of the Jago story however, and is its own S2 character.

Oops! I forgot about #IDARB!

Thanks for those of you that pointed this out. My bad. In honor of the S2 launch, the full cast of Killer Instinct 2 (Arcade) is getting an #IDARB team! Check ‘em out!


#3!

His intro dialogue “You’ll make a fine specimen!”

And here’s the next part of his concept art pic! Full piece next week!


And that’s it for this week! Have fun!

He is not my main even though i have that name
Hey I'm LordSpinal from holland and I think I found some new Jago stuff for you guys to further explore.

Its about Jago's instinct whatever hit you use to cancel instinct... that same hit you need to use to cancel it in to a special move.

So lets say you do a overhead instinct cancel then overhead again but that over head you cancel before it hits or might hit or even miss into a special or shadow move.

You can do it with any punch button or any move that has to do with his laser sword

I have some video's too so I hope you guys like it.
(for the people who knew about this and didn't share it thank you for helping the jago community)
And we might all have done this on accident or not

Shout outs to C88 Cupcake and Emperor Robelo
Cupcake told me he saw rebelo do something weird and Rebelo said he did not know how he did it so I further explored it in practice mode.

you can use this to apply pressure, open your opponent up or even mid combo and during juggles
