If you boot up Killer Instinct today you will notice that the Watcher Pack has now been replaced by the Tiger Pack. The Tiger is the newest Guardian to come to Killer Instinct.
What is this Tiger? The Killer Instinct team released this tutorial video below to teach you on how to take advantage of this new Guardian.
The Tiger allows you to perform a Guard Crush! When blocked, your Special Move will break through the opponent’s guard, sending them into a Stagger and leaving them open to a follow-up attack. Using Normal and Special attacks vs a blocking opponent builds the Guard Crush meter. Once it is full, your next blocked Special move will cause a Guard Crush!
This can create amazing pressure, especially on opponents that love to turtle (pesky AI.. or ‘that friend’). Hit them with a Guard Crush and immediately follow-up with your most powerful combo starter!
The Tiger Guardian is sure to be a fierce and unrelenting addition to Shadow Lords, especially in the hands of players that have mastered tight block strings; your setups just got TIGER powered!
The Tiger Pack is available now for a limited time. Make sure to grab it while you can. 3,000 KI Gold or 5,500 Astral Gems will net you a guaranteed Rare or better Tiger, as well as another Rare or better Guardian.
