KI has gotta be my favorite fighter and imo one of the best designed. The system of Combo\Counter-breaking has gotta be the hypest fucking shit while also removing the whole "well, I got hit once so now I get to sit here for 10 seconds dying." issue so smoothly.
Makes every moment of the fight interesting for both players as it is always some form of mental work going on. Should I break. Should I contour break? Should I bait a shadow break? I WISH more games had options for defense like KI.
The fact that KI goes out of its way to not only fix the "sit there and get combo'd" problem but also add to the gameplay with combo and counter breakers on top of that is just... Really cool. Keeps you on your toes on top of being the hypest shit ever especially helped by the announcer just going HAM
Holy crap - I remember this match. I'm the Thunder at the start. We were both messing up, and I was being too cheeky leaving damage on the table, smh. And all those bad break attempts, sigh. GGs!
It feels so good to hear Herald of Gargos playing alongside Max's commentary after what felt like an eternity Hope to see more KI and Tournament stuff in the future
@@blanketmobbypants i swear one time i was watching a KI match in one of max's older videos and it literally looked like Glacius is doing a toe combo xD
I literally think you could package a new KI with new Xbox(exclusive packaging, etc.) And it would move units. The main reason I bought Xbox One originally was for this.
It has been a while since I watched one of your videos (mainly cause I play fighters now more than ever) but coming back is always the most fun for the games I do not usually play and see wild stuff like that Glacius. Keep up the good stuff.
Once you learn about frame data: startup frames, active frames and recovery frames, it becomes a lot easier to improve. Execution of combos ect. is a matter of repetition.
It's trial and error, taking losses is part of the process. It's unfortunate but you only really see that once you've begun to plateau. Don't be so hard on yourself for decisions you make. Because you made them with good intentions. The key is to learn from the decisions you've made in the past. And...like everything ne else dust yourself off and get back on the horse. You'll see that even the "pros" sometimes take devestating losses. They hop back in. For the love of the game.
Yoo Max love fighting games I'm playing GGS rn but I think I'm getting worse overall so how do you get better? I don't really want to learn combos if I don't have a grasp on the fundamentals that lead into those...so how do you train?
How do all games in the Killer instinct franchise control? I understand how to play Killer Instinct 1, I'm mostly confused about Killer Instinct 2, but for this game, I have no idea how you're supposed to play it
Imagine the combat of killer instinct as a gameplay mod for other fighting games, like Street fighter V or even skullgirls, would be interesting to see.
Some classic KI matches that somehow didn't make it live until today! Can't wait to come back and relearn everything all over again
More KI is a betterment to society
Keep em coming! 👍
Sick can't wait for em
Play more hisako
Literally playing this game when I got the notification us September people are on tune... let's goooooo!
Fulgore: Am I glad that he's frozen in there and that we're out here
Glacius: *uses Hail*
Fulgore: *sad beeps*
Nice Scooby-Doo reference.
and that we’re out here and that he’s m’sheriff and that we’re frozen out here and we’re in there and I just remembered we’re out here
@@pleasestay24 What I want to know is, where's the caveman?
I wonder how many people know that quote is preceded by Fred asking "I wonder where this fat fuck floated in from."
More KI, you love to see it!
I'm loving the Strive content, but DAMN I'm happy to see more KI.
I never tire of playing this game, I have it on steam and I still love it.
Damn, it's been a long time since I've heard that KI music booming. Feels good, man.
Also, "Pee-ba-pam-ba-ba-paym-ba-bweerw." @13:24, as you do.

You can never not think playing this game 😂
Honestly this is what cross tag in my opinion should have been like since watching killer instinct is hype as fuck
I like how you appreciate the "sit there and get combo'd" problem being solved.
Dead or Alive is another such game that solves this with its Holds.

Aria ain't just a Marvel character, she's a whole Marvel team!
Ain't that the truth. Lol!
Got some serious “You’re not the clown but the whole circus” vibes. And funny enough we must ask ourselves “When’s KI?”.
TRUUUUUE
Where do people play MvC 1 and 2?
I want to get into it but the FGC seems half and half about fightcade
@@dropkickpherby6994 To my knowledge, a lot of those players are on Dolphin. If anything, you could find them on Discord.
Watching max play fulgore is a thing of beauty.
Long live ultratek.
6:46 That left right puddle ice ball mix up was absolutely insane 🔥 and the sound it makes is so satisfying to hear.
6:25 max conditioned him and then faked him out with a distanced teleport. That was so gigabrained.
Honeslty it was like the best part of the vid
6:22-6:40 that was so beautifully sick
3 grabs in those few seconds, one right after the other. Gotta love the "There is no way he'd actually go for it again." tech
Every now and then when Max does somebody dirty, it’s always hype as fuck.
Any time I see max playing KI I always end up revisiting it, it's still one of the best fighting games ever made.
Amen
God, KI is so fun to watch.
It's insane how KI can leave for so long(wasn't too long), come back to the channel, and I'm instantly hooked. God I love this game!
I love Herald of Gargos and Polemos songs of killer instinct. Especially this games theme song
The music is god-like
polemos is so good
Warlord is my favourite.
Damn. The last fighting game max was truly in love with, boy how time flies.
Holy crap - I remember this match. I'm the Thunder at the start. We were both messing up, and I was being too cheeky leaving damage on the table, smh. And all those bad break attempts, sigh.
GGs!
Glacius is my favorite KI character. Seeing how well he read and played against Max was hype
It feels so good to hear Herald of Gargos playing alongside Max's commentary after what felt like an eternity
Hope to see more KI and Tournament stuff in the future
8:40 God, that whole sequence was so fucking sick nasty.
Always good to see some good KI on the feed.
Yay. Been wanting to get back into Killer Instinct. Any KI content from Max is amazing
Yes we're back with the BringBackKI agenda
Honestly Glacius is so much fun in 2013 KI
No matter what games come out KI and 3rd strike still remain the most fun to watch by a significant margin
As an outsider to KI i swear sometimes i imagine Glacius comboing his opponent with his toe xD
Bruh 😂😂
@@blanketmobbypants i swear one time i was watching a KI match in one of max's older videos and it literally looked like Glacius is doing a toe combo xD
Watching gameplay of this never gets old, so entertaining. It's still in a class by itself after all these years.
You could see after Max win the Glacius player was pissed. xD

Ive been waiting on Killer Instinct Content for soo long!
Ultimate title name: max almost gets his butt kick by godlike glaciers
I forgot how great it is to hear the announcer. Especially the shouts of "C-C-C-COUNTER BREAKER!" and that beautiful "ULTRAAAAAAAA!"
I started watching you way back when you were heavy into making KI videos, what a blast from the past
Wow that was a sick match up! I never seen an aggressive glacius before. Great stuff max!
Max I'm sooooooo glad you still play this gem of fighting game brother. And you are absolutely hilarious!!
Keeping Killer Instinct alive in 2021 let’s gooooooo
ALWAYS happy to see Max on KI, there's just so much nostalgia watching him play, hope to see more Max!
KI should have BEEN a priority for this newest gen X Box.
True like a sequel or a complete rework to celebrate. This game deserves its flowers while it’s still here
Yea I agree!
I wish I could be this good at fighting games, so intimidating. But it’s so hard for me to get good
Once you learn about frame data: startup frames, active frames and recovery frames, it becomes a lot easier to improve. Execution of combos ect. is a matter of repetition.
The key to enjoying one is just finding one that catches your fancy. KI did it for me.
Have fun and stick wiht it and you'll see improvement. Just don't make it work, or you'll burn out.

Time and patience. This game is extremely hard and I love fighters and am not good at it. I literally had one time when I was and lost my touch
Woo! With all the hype around GGST I wasn't expecting KI content, it's always a blessing!
Yoo Max love fighting games I'm playing GGS rn but I think I'm getting worse overall so how do you get better? I don't really want to learn combos if I don't have a grasp on the fundamentals that lead into those...so how do you train?
So stoked to see some KI again 🤘
Finally some killer instinct i was beginning to think you forgot about it 😅
KI videos in the age of our lord 10th of July, 2021? Love to see it!
The only fighting game i love. Finally you back in it. Now i can watch your videos again!
Picked up KI in the Steam Summer sale to start learning it. This perfect timing!
Once u go ki you cant do sf5 again
Fuck it was on steam summer sale damn I missed out.
Add me. I’ve been trying to relive old times with this game. blackanimatrix . Also no worries, I’m not as good as I used to be lol
Love watchin max play ki
I missed this stream?!? When was this? :'(
I looooveeee watching Max playin' KI what a beautiful game
You know how happy I was to read the title? Knowing that Max is still playing KI just makes me wanna pick up my fight sticks and play again too
you missed the opportunity to say "goodness Glacious"
I subscribed just to watch you play KI, your funny and entertaining.
Hey Max, love your KI videos! As someone who only watched the game, you think its too late do start learning it?
Thanks for the videos! :D
I love watching you play this game.
damn, that stage ultra in the end was sick af
Dang this game looks awesome. Really on the combo game :0
Amazing games, thanks for uploading them.
I love it when Max plays KI. Fun to watch.
God damn, Arias design and animations are so sick
That second Glacius fight when Max was teleporting in the perfect places for attacks, those reads were godlike
Holy shit some KI. Always a good thing Max! Love this game and love you!
Glacius has always felt like an UNIEL character with those full screen normals and insane projectile game.
Hilda laugh in the distance
First time watching max play KI and every character looks like a rushdown with all those nasty combos hahaha
How do all games in the Killer instinct franchise control? I understand how to play Killer Instinct 1, I'm mostly confused about Killer Instinct 2, but for this game, I have no idea how you're supposed to play it
Always down for some KI content!
Bought KI on steam summer sale, so nice that the community still alive!
Is there still a good sized playerbase for this game. I really wanna try it out myself
I forgot how much fun a good TJ was to watch. That guy was pulling off stuff I had never seen before with the rolls.
That TJ nearly making the comback in the first round was awesome
Watching this after strive is like the combos do no damage
But there's also always more than like 5 hits lmao
Aw yeah some Good'ol KI Action!
I finally bought KI this summer sale on steam. Why? Literally just because of Max. GGs dood
Imagine the combat of killer instinct as a gameplay mod for other fighting games, like Street fighter V or even skullgirls, would be interesting to see.
some of the sound effects sound like space cadet pinball from the 2000's on PC lol
Now I’m about to play it. Thanks lol
Glacious just hase one of the coolest and most unique design of any fighting game.
And to think……I was just about to ask when the next gameplay of KI would be!!!!!
I just love watching games with badass combos
So many god damn particles whenever Glacius is on screen. I love it!
nice to see KI back on this channel
*reads Glacius*
*Clicks Instantly*
God I’d love to see more KI content. I may not know fighting games that much but KI is always such a nutty game to watch even just casually
That Glacius was motivated!
9:41 - Glacius: "Now die .."
New to KI and been wanting to play it since launch but didn't have the means of playing it till now
Never actually seen a match of killer instinct before this vid I am amazed this game looks insane
Killer Instinct is a beautiful game and plays amazing! The developers of this game made every single character with love and it shows!
The feeling I get from playing this nostalgic games is amazing
I never realized how much I missed the speed in fighting games. A lot of them seemed to have slowed down a bit.
They have slowed way too much...we need more speed in fighting games like KI.
This video is so refreshing!
I'm glad this game is still played. ♥
Yes please keep the ki content coming
Dang, glacius is a cold dude.
Pun intended
I know right Jesus Christ 🤣😂🤣 this just became a 1 player game
how are u finding people i cant make it past the ultratec screen
I could watch Max play KI all day man
Killer Instinct Max is just built different
ive always like the fact that KI looks so alien and scary compared to all the nicer smooth looking fighters
I never have any idea what’s happening in this game but its fun to watch
What does lockout mean? I see it happen mid combo a lot
C-C-C-C-C-Crazy video max. Keep it up king
Bro, those backdashes in the first match was insane
Ive never played KI but i love these
So happy to see KI back on the channel, but then get so sad cause I can’t play it
Oh gosh, killer instinct 🙏🙏 thanks for this video.
