Re: Most overpowered character in mk9

I'd say Raiden. He's got a number of juggle combo starters, an insanely quick teleport and the electric fly.

I main Smoke, and while he is good, he has a limited number of moves. Pretty much anything you try with him needs to include his 3, d+1, 2 combo to juggle them a few times before jump kick and air throw. His teleport is quick, but is easily punishible if people are just spamming. Most of the other Smoke users I've played online will just spam it.

We need to play.

I love the A, D+X, Y into smoke bomb then F+B the tele. Easy 32 percent I believe. His combos can also start with A, Y. And for block happy people his Back B and Back Y work wonders. I especially like that you can combo Back Y can link to smoke bomb.

So true, I've found I love fighting Sektor and Smoke because of the easily punishable teleports. And almost everyone who plays as them spam those moves.

And now that I main Sub Zero I'm finding I'm punishing in the 26-35% range.

The only problem I'm having right now with Sub Zero is closing the gap on fighters that zone well, Lui Kang and Noob as an example.

Yeah people don't realize that the tele is best used as a extender to a combo or a sure win. You play on PS3 or 360?

Re: Mortal Kombat

PS3.

I'm addicted to this dam game.

I hope we see more DLC that focuses on the current roster.

I'd also pay for a stage pack that included the Pit 2 stage from MK2. My favorite stage fatality of all time. Stright to the concrete lol.

I always get hit by Jax's X-Ray no matter what. I know I can't block it, yet everytime I find myself in close and see it coming I hold block for some reason. Luckily I don't play against too many of them online.

I'm doing the truckin' with Sonya vs. my buddies. Very underated. Her Arc Kick shuts down jumping attacks, and she has plenty of moves out of her Military Stance.

That's my problem with Sektor. I'm thinking "surprise" and my opp is thinking "again?"!!!

I am aware that I am doing it and will get blocked but do it any way.

It's not cheap. I've been playing beginners with Sub Zero while I learn his stuff. I was 50 games over .500 with Raiden but dropped when I switched to Sub Zero. He's tough to fight with against experienced players, that is until I learn his stuff better.

Re: Mortal Kombat

4 more hours with Sub Zero and I'll have him "mastered" although by no means am I any good with him against advanced players. I hold my own but eventually lose.

That'll be two "mastered" with Sub and Raiden. Just can't seem to put this game down.
