If you happen to have the official SOULCALIBUR V strategy guide, you might've thought about who was behind it, working hard on the frames, damage and other technical stuff. There were actually several well-known players, including the European SC Impact winner, Hyrul.
This week we'll go a little into the UK scene, Hyrul's SC Impact performance and, obviously, the guide.
This week's Interview Time! introduces you to one of the most well-known Ivy player. Ring talks about his SC background (as well as the Polish community), SCV Ivy, the whining SC community and his secret techniques when playing on a PlayStation pad.

Finally, after a long time the Greek Soul Calibur community is starting to gather and the first tournament of this year's session has already taken place.
Old and new Soul Calibur players have finally started clashing with each other in Soul Calibur V, a title that as it seems will return this game's greek community in its former glory, as it were during SCII times!
Not much was made of Season's Beatings: Summer Slam over here on 8WR, but it was an EVO qualifier and we want to make sure we chat with as many players who are going out to these things as possible.
That being said, we managed some time with Sluch, who took 2nd place. A respectable name in the Tekken community, Sluch has transferred those skills over to SC, so I asked him about the transition, Summer Slam, other events he's been going to, and his opinions on an array of other issues. Check out the video and enjoy!
That's right folks, MLG Anaheim player passes for everything but fighting games are sold out and spectator passes are almost gone. What does that mean? That means that soon the Starcraft2 and LoL spectators are going to have to buy our competitor passes just to get in the door.
If you have plans to attend this, buy one NOW! Click here for the link to buy passes.
Ok, so for the time being I'm just going to assume you know what the Critical Gauge does, looks like and how you generate said meter. I was thinking about doing a primer for total noobs to begin with, but there are a few of them around already. If you don't know that much check out Primer X on game mechanics or read up on it in the Future Press guide for SCV...
Don't be scared if you actually are a noob. We all started there, you just have to choose to level up and do it. What I want to cover this week is mostly just how to get the most out of your meter. This falls under 3 basic categories understanding, holding and wasting.
