Retro Spinal Montage (Frost Man Edition) [Mega Man 8 Tribute]
Forgot to say this on the forums, but GGs @UABass with our FT10 a few days ago. I felt like I really improved between that and our previous one and it was very enjoyable

After a very busy holiday/tournament season, this special Rough Sets is finally available to celebrate the 300th one. Thank you again to everyone whoās watched and participated from the very beginning. The journey and grind will never stop. We welcome my 3 special guests today, @CVERIMZ as my opponent, and we have BxA|Charbok and BxA|DevilMayCare with their duo commentary. Since the beginning of Season 1, I always knew who CVE RIMZ was, the super beastly Glacius that made the heavens cry. Weād always interact through Twitch chats and stuff, and since back then, I slowly evolved into who you guys know as āBassā. But for almost three years, we have never, ever, sat down and played a single match. That ends today with this dream match exhibition. What happens when you put two mythological creatures in the same lobby for the first time? Letās bring some of that action back into your homes today.
You can purchase Kilgore today for $10 and 50% of all Kilgore purchases will go to the 2017 Killer Instinct Community Fund. Learn more here āŗ https://www.ultra-combo.com/kilgore-available-part-2017-ki-ultra-tour-community-fund/

UAbass comes off as a curse word?

Also you seem like one of the coolest dudebromanguys in the community, and for that, I thank you.

Lol. Bassās name is so feared in the KI Community, not even the Forums speak of his name, and deem it blasphemyā¦
(But yeah, Thanks for everything youāve done so far Bass. To be honest, you were a major part of me becoming part of the KI Community. Keep doing you dude. Iāll support until the end.

As promised: here we go.
The Killer Instinct Community is back at it again, this time, with an uproar that Cinderās climbed up the ranks because of the new Potential Damage changes. Some even say heās possibly Top 5 nowadays. While I think heās gotten better due to the necessary change to reward his pressure and offense, I donāt think heās all that in comparison to the higher ups. So I return once again to do my part.
I introduce The Cinder Gauntlet, a mini-series where I take on various Cinder players of all skill levels, and use a variety of characters to destroy them.
Cinderās footsie game is pretty abysmal, as the only viable normals are most likely Standing MK, and Crouching HK (sweep). His zoning is pretty good, but has holes, and requires detonation of the bombs. If Cinder is somehow damaged, all bombs in play are removed. Inferno is a great spacing tool and does great potential damage, however, the only one you should most likely be concerned about is full screen fired-up state (block low) and it doesnāt do any chip damage. All Infernos are also punishable up-close (except Shadow Inferno). In order for Cinder to do any real damage, he must rely on burnouts. A good defense is great because Cinder players would have to open up their opponents twice in order for them to do anything special. Respect the burnouts and be smart. Trailblazing is usually unsafe and can be basically sneezed on upon block or whiff, unless spaced properly. All DPs (fired up or not) are -6, full combo punish accordingly (even after blocking the flame pillar).
First we have Raven is Raw, who decided to pick up Cinder while I coach him on some things he should be doing. I choose the newly released Kilgore and predict that this matchup will be a 6-4 in Kilgoreās favor in the long run. Enjoy.

TDB|H0TSH0T, previously known as ShadowCageNinja (Mitchell Mead-Lloyd), is a Cinder player thatās been around for a while. I choose Mira in this matchup, which is actually 6-4 in Cinderās favor. Your first objective is to burn Miraās arms, and then pressure her from there. Arms being burned takes away her anti airs, 50/50s on the ground, recapture, some of her pressure tools, bats, and Vampire Mist. Only real thing that keeps her alive is the ability to run away and her damage cashout. Heavy DP also catches wake up Mist at any distance traveled.

Bass, you mention that the KI community is in an āuproarā over Cinder since the latest patchā¦ is this really what people are saying? He seems like a character with some good strengths, some good weaknesses, some winning matchups, some losing matchups, just like pretty much every other character in this game.
Iām always happy when you post sets, and actually like your āgauntletā idea just for the sake of variety. Just a little curious as to why you word the description of your video as you do.

I havenāt seen anyone complain about Cinder at all.

If the number of players playing him is an indicator in ranked, i feel i dont see him as much as i used to.
Some twitch chats and KI FB page posts seem to be complaining about Cinder now that he does ātoo much damageā or whatever. Whatās even worse is that some of the higher level players are saying the same thing, and possibly throwing him in a potential Top 5, so itās time for me to nip the nonsense in the bud. I too agree with your statement.

Probably because most of them fan the flames.
I get so annoyed when I see that, and unfortunately I see it often.
BTW if I have time I could fight you with my Cinder. Heās rusty but itāll do.
