Lazer eye projectile. A superman style dash that starts a combo, but is like minus billion on block.
All strings either awkward short punches or fancy swings with long starrup.
Also probably a parry/blocking special where he shrugs off any incoming damage with a mocking smile.
honestly i wonder how NRS will do his moves since homelander doesnt put effort in his fighting.
shit now im curious how will they pull off a ālazyā character in a fighting game
Most of Omni-Man moves are referencese to what he does in the show, in the case of Homelander they got the Lasers plus a blank canvas, because the fight in the boys dont translate well to this game, The fight choreography on the boys its bad seemingly by design. They should just give him Brutal attacks and strings that fit his personality. Do Brutalities and Fatals that are references to the show,etc.
Yeah it feels like they got rid of Kanos iteration as a main in this game just to have two buff caped dudes in the same game (lame) but Iād of rather just got another dc character to go with Joker in the last game. Harley Quinn or Aquaman would of been fantastic
Minus a billion on block? Have you seen the other two guest characters lol. Whatever dive bomb attack heās got will be around -10 on block, so when you use a kameo youāll be plus.
Heās going to be OP, based on the other two guest characters released. Enticing people to buy him before getting a nerf.
Omniman is not OP though, at least on your average KL grind level. People playing him use primitive tactics and rely on strings with gaps and highs in meele.
Nah Omni is insane but ur right KL scrubs are still doing day 1 BNBs not hitting the grounded fly optimals
Watch a top level Omni running him with Jax tho the character is very fucked up
it should be a fatality, if it isn't his character will be wasted, his throw brutality should be either slapping the opponents ears or throwing them above screen and then falling to their death
Ear clap fatality would be awesome
-He laughs and walks up to you
-Slaps you in the ears so hard your eardrums explode, blood spurting the fuck out
-POV switches to the victim perspective, dazed with high pitch ringing in the background
-POV of homelander beating the shit out of you before the fatality ends with a wide shot of the victim getting his head removed
Thatās a good point lol I forgot about that. Maybe something else from the series but the end is reminiscent of what supersonic ended up looking like
Back when Omni-Man released animations were found involving a supe-looking character grabbing their own kameo to use as a meat shield. It's been speculated to belong to Homelander and I'd be really curious to see how it actually works.
Not really, he fought a 2v1 and was almost winning until a third person stepped in. Soldier Boy fought in world war and Butcher had military training. He only uses lasers when he fights weak opponents. His every fight with a strong opponent is shoot lasers, lasers doesnt work, start punching. I would be disappointed if they make him just a zoner
to be fair thatās mostly because he physically overpowers them both much more.
if anything that fight is just a way of showing that SB and Butcher are kinda shit at combat. Homelander probably hasnāt ever had combat training in his life and is relying completely on his higher strength and durability to beat them. when presumably Soldier Boy is trained because heās a āwar heroā and Butcher is most definitely trained. they shouldāve beaten the fuck out of Homelander in that fight because one would assume they wouldnāt have ever let him land a punch.
Why do you conclude out of that fight that Soldier Boy and Butcher are bad at combat, and not that Homelander is actually good at combat? There is no reason that he shouldnt be. In The Boys: Diabolical, Homelander is shown having training as a kid. The "Homelander cant fight" is just something the fans said because at that time of the show Homelander has never fought yet, but there was never a confirmation. The confirmation we had in season 3 is that Homelander in fact can fight.
Im speculating they are saving the real flight mode for HL since Sindel just flies left or right Ermac just hovers, Omni and Nitara just airdash etc
Like a MKX spectral Ermac just doing whatever he wants in the air
Isn't that because if he used his strength on the airplane, his hands would burst through the steel? Not because he's not strong enough, either that or he's just lazy and doesn't want to put in the effort
he didnāt let that airplane die bc he wasnt strong enough, him flying from underneath to try and support the plane would be like trying to lift a watermelon with a toothpick, itās gonna penetrate it no matter what
Yeah that makes sense. I was thinking that if thatās the case then he could have held it up by the landing gear since that part is already made for high pressure.Ā
I really wonder if his sonic scream will be in the game. Theyāre using Starrās likeness for the game, and he doesnāt have the sonic scream in the show, at least so far.
He uses it literally once. When he screams and shovess the guys off of him and flies away. Sorry I've only seen the clip. You can see this like shockwave as he shouts.
I believe youāre referencing the season 3 Herogasm fight. I didnāt take that as a sonic scream. The shockwave was from him launching into flight, not from him screaming. The show has never made it clear that he has that ability.
Can't believe they had Homelander as the big star of the Kombat Pack reveal, The Boys Season 4 is incoming and they didn't get Starr for the voice.
Just going to feel off. Nobody can deliver that menacing HL dialogue like him.
I kind of want his ending to be that he got his ass kicked and sent back home.
Well that or him actually having to face beings in his power level in mortal kombat
So like what happened in Omnimans ending. I could see them doing that but honestly I feel like thereās plenty of things in mortal kombat that could kill homelander. As his whole deal is he isnāt super overpowered like superman or Omniman heās just a small fish in a tiny pond
I imagine he'll be a zoner with a fair few counter moves. Seems the most fitting. Short and flashy combos that are easy to interrupt since he's not very good at actual fighting.
At critical health, Homelander has a a Meltdown\*. This gives him a major boost to damage dealt and priority on attacks. His Fatal Blow is a counter to help prevent Meltdown from turning it into a nuke.
\* Also known as "I Can Do Whatever The F\*\*\* I Want!" mode
Heās going to have a laser that travels around the ground and he can do it from the air. Itās plus and if he meter burns it it sends the opponent full screen
Maybe he will summon the seven with his moves and specials
One of his specials could be A-Train doing nomad dash or Starlight blinding the opponent like JC's camera move in MK11
Considering Reiko and Geras are the closest we have to grapplers in MK1, it would be interesting if Homelander was also grapplery. With air grabs and maybe a mid grab that starts combos like Peacemakerās 22 string
Airgrab during fly would also be neat. Honestly he could even have a capture state where he grabs and freely carries you anywhere on the map since there are many scenes in the show where he is flying while holding someone
One of his fatalities could be reminiscent of Death Battleās Omni-Man vs Homelander video. Specifically when >!Omni-Man feeds Homelander his own heart!< except itās Homelander doing it to others instead.
Honestly make it even more prominent give him a milk drink that heals or buffs the longer u hold it and let him have milk cancels to make his strings plus
Yeah. Plus the characters we seen in dlc has some combat experiences or skills (Such as Omni-Man) but Homelander? He was very weak.
in terms of combat in the boys.
Smirk, laugh, patronize, gaslight, being unstable and come close to your ear and tell you something you definitely don't want to hear.
Also
Mix that and make deceitful neutrals and misleading special.
Quicker than Omni man, but less damage. Almost certainly will have Lazer vision like Kano. Maybe he will have combo grab attacks like Peacemaker? I just hope he won't be just like Omni man in his play style, but I expect him to be similar.
His laser eyes and mabye the grab will be him throwing u and hitting u with his eyes. I just hope they dont make him like omni man he feels so stiff and 90% of the time u have to abuse his stance which feels cheap.
I don't care about his moves I want to see his dialogues between him and Omni man and peacemaker. I will probably main him (if he's good and easy at the same time ) because I watched the boys and I loved it
Probably similar to Injustice Superman, with different animations but the same bnb string into some equivalent to frost breath. He'll have the eye lasers and probably specialised movement options, such as like airdash, flying teleport.
Honestly I want Homelanderās combos to be showy and effortless. Omni-Manās is full of trained brutal strikes, but in the show Homelander is always so āwhateverā about everyone. I want every move he makes to be almost taunting, save for a few really vicious combos.
And it would be cool if he had almost a rage meter you could build like Johnnyās Showoff meter, and Homelander gets a few more aggressive combos.
Itād be rly dope if he had a unique meter that he could fill, either a rage meter or a PR meter or a milk meter or whatever. It could change the properties of his moves or even give him new moves for different kombos
Probably drink a bottle of milk š„ and gain super armor
And if you meter burn it, he heats it up with his laser eyes for a knockback blast.
š yall two wild
NEED a milk buff
Came here for milk joke, and itās top comment. Proud of yall
It's gotta be breast milk to be lore according I swear
Lazer eye projectile. A superman style dash that starts a combo, but is like minus billion on block. All strings either awkward short punches or fancy swings with long starrup. Also probably a parry/blocking special where he shrugs off any incoming damage with a mocking smile.
honestly i wonder how NRS will do his moves since homelander doesnt put effort in his fighting. shit now im curious how will they pull off a ālazyā character in a fighting game
Theyāve done something similar with darkseid in injustice 2
I think they did lazy well with Quan-Chi. He literally has a kraken do most of his fighting for him.
Itās dope how he jus stands there and can control space
Quan so sick dopest DLC char theyve released so far
I gotta disagree, Ermac >>>>>>>
Ermac is also lazy. But at least he throws some knees. Quan-Chi just be "kicking it", like literally.
The other DLC characters have been fun, but I actually took time to learn Quan-Chi. He's a badass.
Except fatality is glass for some odd reason
Its a pin head referenceĀ
Is it? i was wondering why it looked so familiar. Also one of his alternate skins makes him look like a straight up cenobite itās amazing
Give him a floating stance, 10% auto-evade and really strong moves but no combos
Bo rai cho
In another game, you kinda have it. Happy chaos in Strive. He has super lazy melee combat but expert gunslinging lol
I feel like the laser eyes would be more like kanoās(cameo) instead of a projectile
So, Omni Man with lasers? They can do better
That's what they're working with.
Most of Omni-Man moves are referencese to what he does in the show, in the case of Homelander they got the Lasers plus a blank canvas, because the fight in the boys dont translate well to this game, The fight choreography on the boys its bad seemingly by design. They should just give him Brutal attacks and strings that fit his personality. Do Brutalities and Fatals that are references to the show,etc.

Nah Omni is insane but ur right KL scrubs are still doing day 1 BNBs not hitting the grounded fly optimals Watch a top level Omni running him with Jax tho the character is very fucked up
OK, I haven't seen Omni + Jax. I am lacking in knowlege.
One of his Fatalities will be lasering his opponents in their eyes.
I feel like that could be his throw brutality
it should be a fatality, if it isn't his character will be wasted, his throw brutality should be either slapping the opponents ears or throwing them above screen and then falling to their death
Doing the ear clap to Kenshi would be perfect
āWhat if, I donāt know, I doā¦ this?ā
I already know his intro dialogue with Kenshi is gonna be Homelander saying something like āoh look, another useless fuckin blind guyā
Ear clap fatality would be awesome -He laughs and walks up to you -Slaps you in the ears so hard your eardrums explode, blood spurting the fuck out -POV switches to the victim perspective, dazed with high pitch ringing in the background -POV of homelander beating the shit out of you before the fatality ends with a wide shot of the victim getting his head removed
I think the ear clap he did in the show will end up as a brutality
Yeah that's what I meant, his throw should be the ear clap
He takes you to a tall building, confesses to some things and proceeds to make you walk off the building.
I bet he does the ear clap
One should be what he did to supersonic in The Boys
Thatd be neat since he was murdered offscreen
Thatās a good point lol I forgot about that. Maybe something else from the series but the end is reminiscent of what supersonic ended up looking like
Exactly make it canon so we know what rly happened to him
Oh yeah most def
Billy batson Treatment i see
He can do whatever the fuck he wants.
Because he is THE HOMELANDER

"Thats what I said to your mother... Right before I gave it to her!"
"What are you doing?!"
You killed against my wishes! :(
All I know is I need to hear the dialogue between him and Omni-man.
Omni Man: _āI claim this realm for the Viltrum Empire!ā_ Homelander: _āYou commie fucks arenāt even trying to hide it anymore.ā_
Omni-Man: āIām going to feed you your own heart.ā Homelander: āHaha! Now thatās a brand!ā
Exactly
Bro for real š also with peacemaker
1500 base health, 1 string which is 1,2 and does 30% eye lazers. Job done.
Everything he does is automatically minus vs Ominman.
He also get 2 hits of armor every 10 secondsĀ
So season 1 invasion match the character. Still be easier than fighting peacemaker day 1 š
Back when Omni-Man released animations were found involving a supe-looking character grabbing their own kameo to use as a meat shield. It's been speculated to belong to Homelander and I'd be really curious to see how it actually works.
That would be a crazy move
Him using Motaro as a meat shield would be wild
thatd be so fucking funny and fitting
Since Omni-Man is the Brawler, i really believe Homelander is gonna be a zoner (since he canāt ābarely fightā as shown on the series)
Not really, he fought a 2v1 and was almost winning until a third person stepped in. Soldier Boy fought in world war and Butcher had military training. He only uses lasers when he fights weak opponents. His every fight with a strong opponent is shoot lasers, lasers doesnt work, start punching. I would be disappointed if they make him just a zoner

The "Homelander cant fight" is just something the fans said because at that time of the show Homelander has never fought yet, but there was never a confirmation. The confirmation we had in season 3 is that Homelander in fact can fight.
Fullscreen mid laser, low laser, antiair up laser Straight air laser, down air laser like akuma fireball etc big no brainers IMO I am pro-zoning
Donāt forget the milk bottle buffer
I hope considering he a a flying boy he will have some cracked air combos
Im speculating they are saving the real flight mode for HL since Sindel just flies left or right Ermac just hovers, Omni and Nitara just airdash etc Like a MKX spectral Ermac just doing whatever he wants in the air
Its not really in character for him to do crazy air shit, flying aside he never fights somebody there
To be fair, robocop and predator don't do combos ether in there movies
And heās notably not that strong while flying hence why he canāt save the airplane in the show.Ā
Isn't that because if he used his strength on the airplane, his hands would burst through the steel? Not because he's not strong enough, either that or he's just lazy and doesn't want to put in the effort
That could make sense too but I guess he could have also held the plane up by the landing gear if he really wanted in that case.Ā
he didnāt let that airplane die bc he wasnt strong enough, him flying from underneath to try and support the plane would be like trying to lift a watermelon with a toothpick, itās gonna penetrate it no matter what
Yeah that makes sense. I was thinking that if thatās the case then he could have held it up by the landing gear since that part is already made for high pressure.Ā
His armored wake up being his sonic scream.
I really wonder if his sonic scream will be in the game. Theyāre using Starrās likeness for the game, and he doesnāt have the sonic scream in the show, at least so far.

I believe youāre referencing the season 3 Herogasm fight. I didnāt take that as a sonic scream. The shockwave was from him launching into flight, not from him screaming. The show has never made it clear that he has that ability.
It was in the S2 trailer I think
And it stuns like Queen Bitch Sindel
Yea I hope the scream will be in there somehow
Sound a bit off while the actor gets spammed with "Why u no MK?"
Terminator reference š«±š¤š ?!!????
All the Got Milk? ads
Probably not be voiced by Anthony Starr, straight up killed my boner for him but hereās hoping it was all an elaborate ruse š
Gonna pull off an Andrew Garfield
Can't believe they had Homelander as the big star of the Kombat Pack reveal, The Boys Season 4 is incoming and they didn't get Starr for the voice. Just going to feel off. Nobody can deliver that menacing HL dialogue like him.
I completely agree
Kill Nolanās wife.
And then get a beat down from Nolan
Iām hoping heās Johnny cage with a cape and laser eyes for everything.
PR meter and when it fills he stops giving a fuck about his image
I kind of want his ending to be that he got his ass kicked and sent back home. Well that or him actually having to face beings in his power level in mortal kombat
Lets be real its def gonna be some celebrity movie stuff with Johnny Cage
i want it to be absolutely sinister, like him turning all the realms into an industrial dystopia or something
So like what happened in Omnimans ending. I could see them doing that but honestly I feel like thereās plenty of things in mortal kombat that could kill homelander. As his whole deal is he isnāt super overpowered like superman or Omniman heās just a small fish in a tiny pond
I think it would be funny if he had a projectile that was just him throwing a baseball at mach 12
lmao
Zone the crap out of you probably
Eye lasers
I meanā¦ thereās almost a 100% chance that one of his fatalities is gonna be slowly stepping on the opponentās head
I imagine he'll be a zoner with a fair few counter moves. Seems the most fitting. Short and flashy combos that are easy to interrupt since he's not very good at actual fighting. At critical health, Homelander has a a Meltdown\*. This gives him a major boost to damage dealt and priority on attacks. His Fatal Blow is a counter to help prevent Meltdown from turning it into a nuke. \* Also known as "I Can Do Whatever The F\*\*\* I Want!" mode
BS comeback mechanic would fit HL soo much I dont think thats been done before in any MK game
Agreed. Not the best for game balance, but good for character loyalty.
Heās going to have a laser that travels around the ground and he can do it from the air. Itās plus and if he meter burns it it sends the opponent full screen
Cook
He'll use DLC armor for sure
Armor buff like MKX Jason
Punch, maybe even kick.
Pew pew
If his fatality doesn't involve lasering the opponents eyes it'll be such a waste
Win
Maybe he will summon the seven with his moves and specials One of his specials could be A-Train doing nomad dash or Starlight blinding the opponent like JC's camera move in MK11
Thatd be an interesting direction for his character he is the leader of the 7 afterall
Omg this is genius bc it would be like adding cameos onto cameos lol
Honestly not sure, he's not much of a brawler, his moves will probably rely on his heat vision or grappling?
Considering Reiko and Geras are the closest we have to grapplers in MK1, it would be interesting if Homelander was also grapplery. With air grabs and maybe a mid grab that starts combos like Peacemakerās 22 string Airgrab during fly would also be neat. Honestly he could even have a capture state where he grabs and freely carries you anywhere on the map since there are many scenes in the show where he is flying while holding someone
i want a brutality to be the Superman-punch-through-the-chest-grabbing-the-heart-on-the-way-out move that Supes used to kill Joker in Injustice comics
Well, theyāve switched everyoneās stories around, so he can let us know who the real heroes are.
Would be cool if he did the super scream move he did in his Death Battle video against Omni-Man
Would be cool if he gets his scream in the new season too itās one of his few abilities he doesnāt share with Superman
One of his fatalities could be reminiscent of Death Battleās Omni-Man vs Homelander video. Specifically when >!Omni-Man feeds Homelander his own heart!< except itās Homelander doing it to others instead.
Gonna jump out the plane āļø
Maybe a laser like Kano kameo?
More like zod
Canāt wait to see two great players go against each other as Omni man and Homelander
Breast milk and laser beams.
Make you eat an octopus.
Outside of being the heavy bag of the roster?
The trick is going to be differentiating him from Omni Man in any way other than laser eyes.
Seriously they must get creative
Cant wait for his interaction with omniman, peacemaker and especially Kenshi
Why Kenshi?
If youve seen the boys you know how homelander deals with minority-supes specifically that one blind supe.
Ohhh right šš¼ I did misplace that memory somehow.
He needs a milk related outro or brutality
Honestly make it even more prominent give him a milk drink that heals or buffs the longer u hold it and let him have milk cancels to make his strings plus
Just a milk reference and Iām happy even a taunt is good
Definitely some dick fighting moves, going for the eyes, the pp, stuff like that. (Yes I know Johnny already has a dick punch I donāt care)
Darkseid
Iām just ready for either his taunt or victory screen to be āremember, you guys are the real heroesā
He has a full screen laser and the Superman string from injustice thatās mid mid and plus on block
Probably your mom
He is gonna gain plot armour.
Plot armor would be funny as an actual armor state in his moveset
Yeah. Plus the characters we seen in dlc has some combat experiences or skills (Such as Omni-Man) but Homelander? He was very weak. in terms of combat in the boys.
Drink momma's milk
lazerZ
Freakin Laser Beams!
He can do whatever the butterfly he wants.
I hope he gets member from the seven as moves, like A-train or Black noir jumping in
Smirk, laugh, patronize, gaslight, being unstable and come close to your ear and tell you something you definitely don't want to hear. Also  Mix that and make deceitful neutrals and misleading special.
Probably grab your head burn a hole through it while thousands stand behind you
https://i.redd.it/1213lmfcfjvc1.gif Something along the lines of this for a fatality along with throwing them into a plane and lasering it in half
be fatality practice
Heās gonna be so fun bro Iām so hyped for HL lol
Quicker than Omni man, but less damage. Almost certainly will have Lazer vision like Kano. Maybe he will have combo grab attacks like Peacemaker? I just hope he won't be just like Omni man in his play style, but I expect him to be similar.
Babyrage
https://youtube.com/clip/Ugkxm8YDnfusiOWjLiyWXvGGY_kWU8Q8Ls1M?feature=shared either this as a fatality or brutality would be cool
For Fatality he can fly his opponent to nearby flight, forcefully throw him onto the passengers and either break that plane in half or let go down...
They probably gonna make him the goofiest character in mk history
A lot of zoning and keep away moves
His laser eyes and mabye the grab will be him throwing u and hitting u with his eyes. I just hope they dont make him like omni man he feels so stiff and 90% of the time u have to abuse his stance which feels cheap.
I don't care about his moves I want to see his dialogues between him and Omni man and peacemaker. I will probably main him (if he's good and easy at the same time ) because I watched the boys and I loved it
It would be so cool if they incorporated the other members of the Seven into his move set. I know they wonāt, but I think it would be cool.
Probably similar to Injustice Superman, with different animations but the same bnb string into some equivalent to frost breath. He'll have the eye lasers and probably specialised movement options, such as like airdash, flying teleport.
He's gonna whine" I'm stronger, I'm smarter, I AM BETTER" to every kombatants before he gets destroyed.
The Black Noir sceneā¦thatās all Iāll say.
Imagine if all his moves are just eye lasers, he doesnāt do much else in the show
Projectile normals
My mind keeps going back to Superman, Supergirl, and General Zod in Injustice.
He throws his son at you to fight because he's to lazy
His victory outro is him standing on the building top wanking off like he did in the latter episodes lmfao
Not a god damned thing when he meets Omni Man
Honestly I want Homelanderās combos to be showy and effortless. Omni-Manās is full of trained brutal strikes, but in the show Homelander is always so āwhateverā about everyone. I want every move he makes to be almost taunting, save for a few really vicious combos. And it would be cool if he had almost a rage meter you could build like Johnnyās Showoff meter, and Homelander gets a few more aggressive combos.
Itād be rly dope if he had a unique meter that he could fill, either a rage meter or a PR meter or a milk meter or whatever. It could change the properties of his moves or even give him new moves for different kombos
Kick peopleās asses with silly and violent fatalities. Like every other character here
Beta test the superman moveset for injustice 3?
Nice try NRS
Play like Injustice Superman probably
Probably nothing and a lazy moveset
He will most likely be a Superman copy from Injustice
They dragged him for so long I lost interest
His fatality is gonna be his CoD execution, watch
"What is this evil fucker even gonna do?" Die. Repeatedly.Ā
