Here’s this week’s Killer Instinct textual stream from Microsoft’s Adam Isgreen. More details available at the Ultra Combo forums!

Q&A:
•What was the “epic troll” at the end of Kan-Ra’s trailer supposed to be? When I wrote the Riptor tease, the intention was to not show Riptor at all. Only audio. It’s pretty obvious who the character is, but I was talked out of it in the spirit of more transparency. What do you think? Better with?
•That tease was pretty different than the others! If you think that was different, just wait for her trailer. We’re having some (troll-free) fun with it. =)
•I still think Riptor is a “he”. She’s not, but won’t take it personally; humans all taste like chicken to her regardless of their beliefs.

Orchid:
•Juggle Firecat projectiles have more knockback on them.
•Shadow Uppercat does less damage.
•Air Throw does less damage.
•Grenade explosion hitbox size reduced about 25%
•Fixed a bug that let Orchid Counter Breaker out of Shadow Uppercat in some situations.

Spinal:
•No bones to pick with this hard-headed fellow this time.
