Master counters and parries in Killer Instinct (2013) by pressing back and QP. Learn how to perform openers and parry dizziness for devastating combos.
Counters are a crucial technique in Killer Instinct (2013) that allow you to perform powerful attacks, including all 70+ hitters mentioned elsewhere. To perform a counter, you must press back and the Quick Punch (QP) button simultaneously. If you hold the QP button after initiating the counter, your character's animation will speed up.
Successfully performing a counter enables you to execute your opener, which will hit three times instead of the usual one. Furthermore, you can achieve what is known as a PARRY dizzy. After a parry dizzy, you are free to perform any combo you wish, or simply taunt your opponent. This technique is a must for advanced players.
