The Jazz of 87 combo is a Skullgirls combo video uploaded by mandrake3468 in 2022. This video showcases the high-level fighting game execution and advanced combo routing — the kind of team-based assists, infinite-prevention system routing, and character-specific extensions that defines competitive Skullgirls play. From the original post: "Returning to Skullgirls since i'm taking 3 days break, and sudently got this idea while labbing 1987 police massacare incident #Skullgirls"
Returning to Skullgirls after a break, mandrake3468 stumbles onto an inspired combo idea while in the lab—one sparked by the historical reference of the 1987 police massacre incident. The video captures that moment of creative discovery, where grinding in training mode suddenly yields something unexpected. Rather than a polished competitive showcase, this is raw lab work: the kind of session where players test half-formed ideas and occasionally land on something worth keeping. The combo itself emerges from focused experimentation, reflecting the unpredictable nature of fighting game discovery when you're not following a predetermined path. It's a quick snapshot of why players spend hours in training mode—sometimes the best finds come from letting your mind wander and following strange tangents.
