Mortal Kombat II Thread

Well,i see a tier list and strategies for MK1,UMK3 and MK4…but what about strategies for MK2?

I need some Help

Mileena and Jax > Everyone else

And Reptile is the suXor.

  1. pick Mileena
  2. hold HP
  3. when every match starts, release HP as soon as you jump ( like the second she leaves the ground ) then hold it again - keep in mind Sai throw only requires 2 seconds of charge time
  4. rinse and repeat until whoever you’re playing against cries
  5. ???
  6. profit

Why is Shang Tsung considered low or around mid in this game? I never understood that…

could it be because of him being able to transform into other characters?

I remember a Game Pro Tier List…but i dont know where is now u.u

But wouldn’t that like…well…top him? Wasn’t he somewhat broken even if you didn’t transform?

Yes, his fatalities were way too good so they had to nerf him.

is the mk2 port on midway vol. 2 for ps2 considered tourney-worthy?

yea i been playin this game on psn for a while now and i thought up a list a few days ago…

TOP TIER

  • Mileena
    -Jax
    HIGH TIER
    -. Liu
  • Kitana
  • Kung
  • Baraka
    MID TIER
  • Sub-Zero
  • Cage
  • Raiden
    LOW TIEr
  • Scorpion
  • Shang Tsung
  • Reptile

^EDITED because reptile = worst char.

No love for Raiden. :frowning:

Anyway, I use Raiden, any strats for him?

Reptile is SHIT TIER, this is not to be disputed! :annoy:

haha yea ik what you mean man. i was just gonna switch raiden and reptile
like 10mins after i made that tier list

uhh for raiden most ppl do:

u/f+LK, torpedo

for punishing their tech do a teleport, sweep if they arent by a wall
teleport , grab
or hold HP for 5 seconds prior to and do
teleport,electric grab

all i can think of. i dont play raiden much

And what about some Basic Juggles?

Liu Kang’s Bike Kick is a good juggler

I think Shang is getting hosed, but the Mileena = God Mode is true.

definately. jump LK- bicycle kick-flying kick is lius best combo

Why is Jax tops? Best grab?

best grabs and more options. plus his unblockable earth stomp thing

just because he can morph into every single character doesnt mean he is any good. shang tsung himself isnt good at all with only one special move, the flaming skulls which is worthless basically. the fact that you basically are forced into morphing with shang against a high skilled opponent just means that every character is better then shang tsung. exept reptile of course haha

Hmm, I remember he did like half a bar with his slams.

Can somebody explain Liu kang? Isn’t his jumping HK hard to connect? I know people love to subs that with the air fireball, but the timing must really be perfect to get it off.

Wrong. Have you ever played MKII at high level?
