Mortal Kombat X

Re: Mortal Kombat X

Tried out tanya in the tower mode, meh, she's not for me. She can be kinda tricky to deal with in the hands of a good player, but i don't like her play style. Glad that netherelm at least lets you try out the characters before paying for them.

I think i'm gonna pick up cassie cage, she seems like she has a lot of potential and i love her dialogue also. I need a good rush down character.

Oh and also, even tho i'm not really interested in using tanya, i'm definitely curious about her story, i remember her in mk4 serving shinnok, but in MKX during the intro shinnok actually sounds livid(and he never sounds mad in any other intro). He's like " i WILL KILL YOU!" lmao.

A good Cassie main user is a female named ArkhamsBeauty (maybe ArkhamBeauty) - she has a round controlling string that almost made me look into Cassie again.

I think i finally found my main, been on a huge roll with tanya, i see shes not well liked but i am feeling it, can't put my finger on why but loving her so far

Tanya is pretty good. I left her outta my stable because I can't pull off her combo/strings. I turn into a special spammer with her. When you get her down and if you're on the PS4 I'd love to play against a skilled Tanya user. The Tanya users I've run into aren't as good as me with her so they haven't given much challenge.

Re: Mortal Kombat X

Cassie is tricky, i gotta practice her more. Might mess around with kitana too, i like her options. She's always had nice combo potential. Weirdly enough, i used to like scorpion and sub zero, but i don't really mess with them in this game.

I've been doing pretty well online(i got a 14 fight win streak). But i STILL think Jacqui brigss semi auto variation needs to be nerfed. That is nonsense, and a stupid idea. 3 shot burst, what idiot thought that was a great idea? You don't see crap like that in more balanced fighting games like tekken or street fighter(imagine 3 hadokens at once that move fast as hell and push you back). I mean there's ways around it and i've beaten it, but it still pisses me off that it's that powerful and you have to work hard to get around it when it's a simple move to execute with hardly any drawbacks. Hell in tekken to do an EWGF(probably one of the most powerful moves in the game) you have to be damn near frame perfect because it's a just frame, but here it's just back forward 1 or whatever the hell that easy command is. Pisses me off, they better nerf that nonsense. Yeah, i get salty even when i beat these "zoners" because of how stupid that is to have in the game lol.

I started with Kitana but she only had a few effective kombos to me, not enough mix up with her but then again I'm only 2 months into taking a fighting game serious.

Jacqui ... where do I start with Full Auto Jacqui? If you don't have a teleporter you may as well put the controller down - completely pointless once they have distance and start that nonsense.

Could you explain frame data to me as simple as possible? I think once I understand that I may elevate myself from being a decent player to a good one.

Re: Mortal Kombat X

Tanya's staff variation is great. Keeps ppl guessing all the time

Re: Mortal Kombat X

for some reason this MK hasn't captured me like the previous ones. I was on all previous MKs nonstop, I haven't been hooked on this one. Maybe i'll give it another spin when Predator drops.

Re: Mortal Kombat X

Really starting to get takeda and his shirai Ryu variation down. Learning how and when to use meter is such a game changer.

I'm not the best at breaking stuff like this down, it's like i know how it works but i'm not at good at explaining to other people. But basically 1 frame=1/60th of a second. Frames can explain how long a move takes, starteup frames are for how long it takes the move to activate from when you hit the button(so some moves come out faster than others, so if player a uses a move with a faster start up frame, it'll beat a move that takes longer to starteup). There's more info, but you'd be better off looking some of it up, as i said, i'm not the best at explaining this stuff, even though i have an understanding of it lol.

It's good to know frame data, but IMO it's better to play around with moves so you get a feel for what comes out faster/slower etc. But then again, i'm more of a hands on person.

Thanks. I just joined TYM and I'm finding loads of info there as well as watching all of these MKX pro streams.

Re: Mortal Kombat X

I'm confuse I see the command for easy fatalities but when I try to input it nothing happens what am I doing wrong ?

You probably don't have any easy fatality tokens.

I just bought the 30 fatalities. I thought that it. U need to have tokens too

Those are the tokens. The fatality commands are so simple and the list is in the game. Is there any reason why you bought them? I'm curios.

Not surprised to hear a guy who uses that tactic is an *** at all. The developers of mk seem to think it's funny tho, i know they're aware that people want that move nerfed, in the last patch notes they added : jackie briggs, stankey leg now shows up in the move list. Or some nonsense like that.

I managed to snag the trophy for winning 10 ranked online matches in a row, almost tied my record for 14 wins in a row, i was fighting a good mix of players too. I've also been brushing up on my jason, i have his mix up combo down, i can do some combos with him that are about 35%, maybe 40. I can definitely do the most damage with him out of all the players i use, BUT, he's actually my 3rd best character. I don't feel comfortable using him against zoning characters(at least not good level zoning players). Might have to try learning some of his other forms, slasher seems to be the best tho.
