Sheeva is the Marduk of MK9 combos with her goofy ass hit box. I haven’t even thought of the debauchery that I’ll get outta her. :badboy: Hey Josh, you should play Sheeva!
CLICK HERE to see some of my other combos I’ve found but haven’t posted vids for yet. Noob, in theory, has a death combo off an unblockable reset. What’s your General Tsao, chingow mo’fucka got on Black Dynamite now honkey?
Kung Lao: Disabler from the back!? I CAN’T BLOCK!!? Oh, what the fuck!!!
Noob: teleports I threw that shit before I came in the room! Intiates death combo Bwahahahaha…
Without one of the jump kick xx dive kicks at the beginning and minus the one before the JF string, that combo still does 71% on normal sized characters.

My brother used to play Sheeva when we were kids. :lol:
You guys see all this time he’s putting in, right? Watch him say in 2 weeks, “Man, I don’t even practice MK!!” No shit, I wouldn’t practice 24/7 for a 3rd week in a row. Phbbbt
Game still feels a bit clunky and jerky, and i’ll be damned if i understand anything about recovery, whiff punishing, baiting, or hitboxes in this game yet. Got my half life combos with Ermac, and basically just do random shit until i see an opening. Go strategy.
If any of y’all are going to go, please call Justin first to give him the head’s up. It was by invite only via Facebook and he doesn’t want a bunch of random people showing up.
Been a couple weeks, would like to get some games in somewhere. Not sure if Javier is still doing his thing or not. Can provide gas munnies, hit me up, preferrably 480-369-8635.
Looks like you need to put out tonight to show her you’re grateful
Gratz to Andrew btw for getting 5th at the CEO prep tourney in Florida. Jerome what happened to MB! I got to work tonight and they said you detoured there and decided that was all the cooking out you needed :lol: It was super hype man, so much fun.
Thanks. I shoulda won honestly, but knowing how to punish something and then actually doing it for the first time didn’t work out too well. Lol I need more practice against human comp to gain that much needed muscle memory and properly punish unsafe moves. Knowledge was gained nonetheless and it was hype and fun. Kung Lao and Smoke are very tier. Easy combos, pressure, and safe. You and Shawn should have no problems with your respective characters. Hope all of Charleston gets more serious with MK. Its got limitless potential with the tag mode.
I got 4th in Myrtle Beach after only playing the game for an hour. Myrtle Beach was toooo much fun and hype. At the end of the night after the tournament, I somehow went on this mad rampage with Kung Lao :lol: Spin and dive kick! He’s really good and fun. This game is really good and I actually want to play it, unlike Terrible 6
Ahmed is playing Smoke while Justin plays Raiden and Quan Chi. Smoke is definitely good. Kung Lao is overrated imo. He is super solid with options. Once people learn how to punish spin and dive kick, he’ll be a lot less abusable. Now using dive kick for controlling space is an entirely different story
Kind of like Smoke’s teleport and his oki. Once you figure out that on wake up his only low option is to sweep you (overheards lead to combos) and can punish/bait teleport punch, he’s not nearly as overwhelming.
What I like the most so far is how it seems like in every situation, you are playing a yomi game. Am I going to use a safe, hit confirmable string into a special for damage (or finish it and keep safe while doing less damage if it hits?)? Overhead? Low? Throw? Jump? Each option has a direct counter to it which is sooooooo nice.
I’m hitting the dojo with Sindel next. I was going to play Smoke and Ermac as well, but Ahmed and Tai are playing them in MB. After I learn her I’ll probably pester them to teach me what they’re doing
I love how this game requires you to take calculated risks and you get rewarded according to how much you risk. Fuck safe launchers that lead to 50% anywhere on the screen. MK requires meter for any shenanigans! And you have to properly balance how to use the meter. Burn it on XRay, EX, or Breaker.
I like to think so haha I play chun, akuma and doom so I use hidden missile to make to make tatsu and chuns kicky kick safe its been working pretty well
