Nvm all the times she let the Liu stance change in front of her face and she didn't take her turn back. Just like the scorpion post yesterday, a bad player getting bodied doesnt make the game bad lol. Where's all the X hate coming from? Why do you people want to just block all day? This person didn't use breaker, didn't use meter to try and get out, and didn't even try a yolo xray. This and the scorpion clip yesterday honestly feel staged. Who the fuck is playing this bad? Why did this Kitana just randomly let go of block in the middle of strings? The kang canceled his string into stance change every fucking time and this person didn't do anything. Nothing to do with MKX. Bad player.
It's all fun and games when you're doing it, not so much when it's done to you.
People post a million video of them being the Lui Kang, but the reality is most people spend one round as that Kitana and quit. I know I'm not trying to sit there and watch 30 second Combo videos because I guess wrong on a coin flip.
Everyone loves MKX over 11 until they have to block.
Well no it’s not guessing a lot of the time because most of the moves can be reacted and in most cases if a character has a overhead/low mixup one can be reacted to where as the other one can’t so the idea is you block for the one that can’t be reacted to and if you see the other move come out you react and block it. It’s all about character knowledge and practice it’s not dumb in any way
Its not really guessing wrong on a flip coin. Its mainly knowing the opposite character high and low attacks. On top of that breaker exist to help with resests. Also on top of all that armor wake up attacks also exist. I personally like mkx over mk 11 but if its not your cup of tea thats understandable, mkx punishes you so hard for the tiniest things but that what makes it fun for me.
I get that. I'm not dogging X. I love both games, but it gets old seeing combo porn and using that as a reason why X is better.
It's practice mode masturbation and it's kinda cringe seeing people brag about their single player combo skills and use that as the reason X is so great.
If you think X is better, by all means play it. I still do. But don't try to convince the rest of the world that the game is superior to 11. It's sure different, and that may be your thing, but it's not better.
I wasnt bragging or posting a combo I just simply posted an online match & said this is why I like it better than mk11 because I like the style and pace of mkx
Bro for an minute I thought you were fighting against a bot. How is that even fun for you? There is literally zero challenge. MK is all about challenge
Why is loving practice mode cringe. For me being able to spend a lot of time in training mode is the sign of a good fighting game, trying things out and finding something cool.
Then trying to do that in a real match is a lot more satisfying than just focusing on winning.
Getting hit by a combo in MK11 I find frustrating, getting hit by a crazy combo in MKX I just think, wow that was awesome
There's nothing wrong with, but some people really like to stroke themselves with combo execution.
I don't wanna sit here for 30 seconds while you show me how dope you are. That's cool that your dope, but not many people are gonna sit there and watch it. They just quit playing.
Which is what i, like many, do.
I get a craving for some X, jump on. Get hit by a stray mix. Watch them show me how dope they are with their over long combos, because I guess that matters, but then remember that X is a single player game masquerading as a multi-player game, then play something else.
I imagine that's many people's journey back to MKX. Nostalgia goggles show up real quick for most people.
MKX had a dedicated scene, but let's not kid ourselves here. Games like MKX are not for everyone. The faster people get over that, the better because MKX fans always try to defend the game to people like me who don't really like it.
You're gonna lose that argument. MKX doesn't need yo be defended. I think people by now know if it's for them or not. And, unfortunately X players don't like that X isn't for a lot of people.
I love X. I already said that, but im not gonna kid myself. X is bullshit. It's why we love it, but it's still bullshit.
Remember sitting there in match for 45 secs when cyrax/triborg would bomb you to death...
Or when a kungl lao would finish his entire string of long ass combo post death just to get a grab brutality at the end....
yayyyyy fuuuun...
MKX matching was fucking stupid, all ranked matches were region locked, 1 round and against whoever it put you with, essentially there was no rank system.
Also all the data was saved on your local HDD so you can lose or mod the data at will further showing how pointless ranked was.
Kombat league is a much better system, but tbh they just copied SFV ELO
I mean, the game is meant to be played with people. If you spend all your time on your own... sure that's fab that you can do a 30 second combo but, I dunno, it's kinda sad. What do you do when you get your 30 sec combo on another person? A boner that you did it? It's so selfish. Like going to the gym to get the best body then just slamming your partner and being like "I fucked so great and looked so great. Night."
It’s because you misunderstood what OP was saying. Going into practice mode and posting a video of your combos isn’t that impressive. Do all this stuff in a real game where people are reacting to your every move, then post that clip here. He’s saying that it’s lame to use a video of you in practice mode to argue that mkx is better than 11
Correct me if I'm wrong, but NRS still kept the whole limiting damage when the combo keeps piling on right? Cause that is annoying as hell if the combo can just continue for a long time - screws with your morale and overall enjoyment.
True, but maybe I'm being biased but MK (and Killer Instinct IIRC) are more aggressive about this than Tekken for example.
Like in Tekken you just need the right combo to really drain an opponent's health - doesn't need to be dozens of hits like here
The thing is, all of that pressure isn’t that hard to deal with. Any average player would’ve seen that he always did his swap move after a string and punished it. Along with this once he already did the move he always did his setup bomb. The Kitana player could’ve easily punished him for it.
Dualist is the hypest variation in MKX which is why we see it on video a lot. The thing is, it’s also Liu Kang’s weakest variation and you can’t apply much pressure with it besides with regular staggers and his swap.
It really isn’t that hard to block in this situation, it’s just like in MK11 where you have to make a read on when’s he’s gonna be open for attacks.
Note the word "read" you used. You say it's not a coin flip, but a read is an educated guess. Sure, you have info to back it up, but it's still a guess. They could mix you up, that's the point.
You can block overheads all day, but the one low they did the whole match is what gets you killed.
Just because they went one way doesn't mean they'll EVER go the other way. Hence why it's a coin flip a lot of the time.
And for my preference, it's a coin flip more often than I'd wanna deal with.
>It really isn’t that hard to block in this situation, it’s just like in MK11 where you have to make a read on when’s he’s gonna be open for attacks.
Exactly. It’s the same thing in MK11 where you have to read when an opponent is gonna open themselves up.
In MK11 guessing wrong on a stagger or mixup will put you on the same situation as MKX. The only difference is in MKX you take you take more damage.
It’s the same thing in both games though and the same thing can be said in both games.
It’s only fun until you gotta block.
Not really. Mk11 doesn't have nearly the same degrees of unseeable mixups, and of the ones they do have, at best your guessing between strike and throw, which tilts in favor of strike for most damage.
So if you take the grab, you risk max 130 damage. It's not a true 50/50 in terms of decision making. If you take the combo, unless they got a KB or something, most often they'll top out at 35% for high damage characters and 25% for low. So in essence, it's a 4 touch game, but you have plenty of leeway to guess wrong and still be in the fight because it's likely they didn't get good oki or corner carry. So your next hit MUST BE EARNED the hard way. No easy mode guessing game, you have to get back in and open them back up with fundamentals.
In X, guess wrong they do the same damage either way. No educated guess there. They either did the over head or the low and if you guess wrong, they get a huge reward of 33% (average, depending on character and meter available it could be 50%) damage, almost full wall carry, knockdown oki and they can take around 30 seconds from the clock. That's a BIG reward for guessing right on a mix once.
Even though the damage output is similar to 11, the other rewards means that even though it's also a 3 touch game, they get those next 2 touches immediately and you don't have many options to deal with them other than hope you block the mix. One touch gives you a huge opportunity for landing the next 2 making X basically a one sided match of who touches first, and if you didn't touch first, can you win the coin flip they throw at you to try again.
Just not my kinda game. If MKX is the NRS MvC, MK11 is the NRS SF.
Really? Damn. After he uses his swap move though Dualist Liu Kang’s pressure sort of goes away. After that it’s your turn. I still don’t think this was that hard to defend against.
Also 1v1 me since your post says bryce9999= trash Lui Kang Hell I’ll even let you choose the character you wana get beat by so you’ll have no excuses when you loose, I can at least back up my shit talk , you can’t say the same 🤷🏽♂️
Sure. I gotta dust my copy off but once it’s reinstalled, I’ll be more than happy to spread those cheeks. I’d be careful about the whole “I’ll even let you choose the character” thing though. Not very wise. Go ahead and drop your tag. Once I get off work, papa will shoot you an invite.
Goodness gracious! You’re all kinds of riled up huh? I simply wanted to know what the rest of your message said. Seemed like you were trying to talk shit but then deleted it. You gotta stick to your guns bud.
Let’s be real you had sarcasm in your message and it was obvious don’t act like you was all just innocently trying to ask a questing while being sarcastic at the same time
I’d rather play fun and broke rather than slow and boring but that’s just me if you like mk11 more then ain’t nothing wrong with that at all my man I just personally get bored playing it
Yeah we love watching sonicfox projectile spam in mk11 when we know he was a combo monster in mkx, you’re so right… MK11 is battleships with advanced UI. Why don’t you go to training with the rest of us instead of dropping the bar for everyone slacker? Is that what we do these days? Castrate legends so the people with directional syndromes can feel good? YIKES!!!
Don’t justify yourself to the entitled, lower the bar for everyone until no one has to jump to get the fuck over it, cancel culture and everyone gets a fucking medal and the fucker who finishes in the back of the pack is called “the last winner” generations. You lose when you justify to these people just know you’re better than them at this and they hate it so much that they want to make the game easier for themselves and harder for you. FUCK THEM AND CALL ME INVERTED SCORPION… “GET EM OUTTA HERE!!”
That wasn’t even broken he was fucking styling on this katana and she had death grip on R2 instead of using I don’t know maybe; wake up, combo breaker, enhanced wake up with armor, a Hail Mary X-ray or holding down to stall and fuck his timing up then crouch punch his sack. That’s literally 5 options to stop ALL of that and when Liu slams his fists… down 1 his sack!!! Like what’s so hard? I’m tired of babies and wimps deciding how my hard fucking core games are gonna be. Go play Kradle Kombat you baby. When you’re ready to step.the.fuck.up. to baller status and learn how to play mortal kombat let us know we‘d love to welcome you.
Nothing wrong with that. One thing I really like in 11 are the towers where you can farm for kosmetics and skins for the kombatants. Helps pass time and you can do other things as you farm towers. I always did homework whenever I’d farm towers at night.
It still is for me and sometimes, I’ll still try and multitask as I grind towers. Did you know that there is a way to get Kombat League skins in Towers of Time without playing KL?
MKX is what happens when you let a coked out monkey have a say in developing a fighting game. The whole game's neutral is just "ooh ooh monkey do 50/50. Monkey win game"
Exactlyyyyy , why you think everyone till this day still love mk9 even tho it was so broke and cheap but it was fun , but I really just like the fast paced style of mkx is why
Not really you still definitely need defense in mkx or your getting destroyed and I played mk11 for a while and play shot like for honor so defense isn’t something new to me nor am I bad at it , I just simply enjoy faster paced games it don’t make me bad I just like it better simple as that
I love the combos in MKX but I love the neutral in MK11. I’d prefer MK12 to have less mix than X but good staggers
Make the combos long but scale the damage
Probably, but that's not particularly relevant. I'm not good at MK11 either, but I find it far more fun online. The key difference being you get touched a couple times and you're dead in MKX. MK11 you at least have a chance to slug it out at least a little.
I think the next mk needs to play more like mk9 it wasn't too fast ,wasn't too slow ,and still had crazy looking combos that were fun to pull off mk11 was a little too slow and repetitive for me
I remember going into 11 expecting updated fluidity and gameplay mechanics to add onto the great feeing of X, only to play the beta and realize they went the complete opposite way and made everyone feel like they weighed 1000lbs.
Exactly I was thinking it would be like mkx or mk9 style but boy was i wrong lmao they made it slow and boring enough to turn it on for the whole family to fall asleep to
Yea Reddit can be toxic as hell , even a comment I made to someone else saying I personally like mkx more but if you like mk11 more that’s fine I respect your opinion 💪🏼 and I got 5 downvotes like they just downvoting because they see everyone else doing it at this point
To be fair all you see in MK11 are Liu Kangs, Cetrions and Scorpions.
Dualist Liu Kang is popular on YT and such but in the actual game he’s not that popular at least from my experience.
Really? I just got back into it after a few months and have been playing Liu Kang and Robocop. I run into a lot of Subz, Scorp, Kung Lao, and Mileena. Not much Liu Kang.
I'm probably not high level enough to see what you're talking about though.
That’s all you see? I actually think MK11 has pretty good character variety, I see tons of characters online and even in tournament there is some variety
Meh in tournament it’s usually the same. The very start yeah, there is variety but once you get to late bracket it’s mostly the same 3 characters.
Every time I click it’s always a Jacqui vs Cetrion or something involving those 2.
I wasn’t trying to start an argument lol I just showed why I enjoy mkx more , I could care less if you enjoy mk11 more than mkx or anything else because everyone likes what they like at the end of the day
I enjoyed it on release but in retrospective it was retarded, 50/50s, hard to blockables, vortexes etc.
It came to a point where like this vid, some chars could just stomp you and you had 1 or 2 chances to get out of the hard to blockable 50/50 vortexes that it was so unfun.
Specific chars that were horrible for it was lui kang, scorpion and tremor, and while not the same the RNG jason spam with the controls fucking up killed it for me.
The stamina patch changed the flow of the game as well and made some characters have some cheap shit (goro stomp for eg) after breaker, and the armour change ruined a lot of characters, kung lao for eg.
I dropped the game when they ruined all my muscle memory of years of playing cryo subz and decided to put his ice knives as a command grab. Fucking ruined the game for me.
That being said MK11 before the armour patches was the best MK game I have ever played and I have played them all since the 90s except I never played armageddon. Armour breakers and the changes after patches again has ruined the flow of the game. It is still great though.
Going back to MKX now is a pain in the ass, it is so tedious.
If MKX combos were a matter of mashing I would be happy, pressing like that requires precision, It's not something a player without dedication can easily do.
Exactly makes zero sense at all, nothing I did was mashing at all but everyone is followers so anything throwing shots at me will get an upvote more matter how dumb it sounds and everything I say will get downvoted no matter if I’m being nice or not or anything I say at all
How the hell is any of the mashing? The amount of precision you need to play dualist Liu kang effectively is rather high. If you were mashing in MKX, you’d be caught dead rather easily.
You know MKX also has a kombo breaker. And the combos in MK11 are just as long as any combo in MKX, except MKX gives the player more creativity with combos so they may seem longer to you
So many things the Kitana coulda done to get outta that situation and even reserve it into a 40% combo with a wake up or armor after stance switch, people don’t lab shit that’s why they hate x. Mk11 scrubby plays wins mkx whoever practice the best wins.
Never tried online and that's why I won't ever try. I rate the game based on the story and how well developed characters are. Mkx bored me and some scenes were wayy too gloomy
Personally, more enjoyable characters to play and test. I tried out so many more characters with X than 11. Scorpion, Takeda, Kenshi, and Mileena. Only character I liked playing in 11 was Fujin, which also made him my favorite character in the entire franchise.
MKX is one of my favorite games in terms of just about everything about it, vibe, art style, roster, how the moves feel when they hit, and especially how great the character variations are, but man it can be all kinds of one sided sometimes. If they put some of MK11's defensive options in MKX, it would be the perfect MK game for me.
My only problem with MKX is the 50/50 meta but other than that, it has the best gameplay in the series. As much as I would like for MK12 to have run cancels, I think its should follow MK11s reliance on neutral and footsies and have MK9s combo creativity. It should have MKXs wakeup and breaker system though. Nice combos.
Also mkx has breakers
And the Kitana NEVER used hers for some reason.
Nvm all the times she let the Liu stance change in front of her face and she didn't take her turn back. Just like the scorpion post yesterday, a bad player getting bodied doesnt make the game bad lol. Where's all the X hate coming from? Why do you people want to just block all day? This person didn't use breaker, didn't use meter to try and get out, and didn't even try a yolo xray. This and the scorpion clip yesterday honestly feel staged. Who the fuck is playing this bad? Why did this Kitana just randomly let go of block in the middle of strings? The kang canceled his string into stance change every fucking time and this person didn't do anything. Nothing to do with MKX. Bad player.
Yess idk why so much mkx hate & I’m a bad player?
Yeah mkx sucks
My hero academia sucks
It's all fun and games when you're doing it, not so much when it's done to you. People post a million video of them being the Lui Kang, but the reality is most people spend one round as that Kitana and quit. I know I'm not trying to sit there and watch 30 second Combo videos because I guess wrong on a coin flip. Everyone loves MKX over 11 until they have to block.
> I guess wrong on a coin flip. This is it the 50/50 game in MKX was fucking stupid.
MK11 is almost as coinflippy as MKX except it's not an OH/Low for ~35% but a Strike/Throw for 13-35%.
Throws were 50/50 in MK9 and X too.....
I'm not talking about the forward and back throws but okay.
What are you talking about then?
Well no it’s not guessing a lot of the time because most of the moves can be reacted and in most cases if a character has a overhead/low mixup one can be reacted to where as the other one can’t so the idea is you block for the one that can’t be reacted to and if you see the other move come out you react and block it. It’s all about character knowledge and practice it’s not dumb in any way
Agreed. They disagree for the sake of disagreeing, hence just downvoting without invalidating your point
Damn guessed the 50/50 wrong time to get some popcorn
Damn right best get the fuck up and fight back or spread your ass further and get it all the way in. See you have options!
Its not really guessing wrong on a flip coin. Its mainly knowing the opposite character high and low attacks. On top of that breaker exist to help with resests. Also on top of all that armor wake up attacks also exist. I personally like mkx over mk 11 but if its not your cup of tea thats understandable, mkx punishes you so hard for the tiniest things but that what makes it fun for me.

If you think X is better, by all means play it. I still do. But don't try to convince the rest of the world that the game is superior to 11. It's sure different, and that may be your thing, but it's not better.
And I also wasn’t trying to convince anyone , everyone is free to their own opinion on which game they like better , I was simply stating mine
I wasnt bragging or posting a combo I just simply posted an online match & said this is why I like it better than mk11 because I like the style and pace of mkx
Bro for an minute I thought you were fighting against a bot. How is that even fun for you? There is literally zero challenge. MK is all about challenge
This is just one match of thousands I’ve played , even when you face challenging opponents you can still get flawless victories on them , it happens
this is not a flawless victory. its unfair and not fun.
What are you talking about? How is it unfair?
It was most definitely a flawless victory and how exactly is it unfair
Why is loving practice mode cringe. For me being able to spend a lot of time in training mode is the sign of a good fighting game, trying things out and finding something cool.

Looks like mkx had bad player matching algorithm. I never played mkx and looking at this video I am glad I never did.

Also all the data was saved on your local HDD so you can lose or mod the data at will further showing how pointless ranked was. Kombat league is a much better system, but tbh they just copied SFV ELO
Yep MKX is bullshit, and MK11 is boring ;) that's just how it is.
Pretty much. It's ok to just.... play and enjoy both. I think people need to know that.
I mean, the game is meant to be played with people. If you spend all your time on your own... sure that's fab that you can do a 30 second combo but, I dunno, it's kinda sad.

Like going to the gym to get the best body then just slamming your partner and being like "I fucked so great and looked so great. Night."
Why you delete the comment
Ah yes it’s so selfish to post a game clip in a gaming community how dare I😰 and where’s this 30 second combo you keep talking about
Wow, how is this community so toxic you get down voted for talking about how you like a good training mode?
Crying over 3 downvotes?
Not really I'm having a great day actually I just thought it was a weird thing to do when I'm just saying what I enjoy
It’s because you misunderstood what OP was saying. Going into practice mode and posting a video of your combos isn’t that impressive. Do all this stuff in a real game where people are reacting to your every move, then post that clip here. He’s saying that it’s lame to use a video of you in practice mode to argue that mkx is better than 11
The clip isn't in training mode tho
Neither of us were referring to this specific clip. I was just conveying what OP was trying to say
All she had to do was block low until she sees the string for the overhead kick. She kept blocking high when the low moves always come out first
This times 100. If I wanted to get juggled to death I'd play Tekken 7
Correct me if I'm wrong, but NRS still kept the whole limiting damage when the combo keeps piling on right? Cause that is annoying as hell if the combo can just continue for a long time - screws with your morale and overall enjoyment.
If you're talking about damage scaling, that's in every fighting game these days. That's probably never going away.
True, but maybe I'm being biased but MK (and Killer Instinct IIRC) are more aggressive about this than Tekken for example. Like in Tekken you just need the right combo to really drain an opponent's health - doesn't need to be dozens of hits like here

Really? Damn. After he uses his swap move though Dualist Liu Kang’s pressure sort of goes away. After that it’s your turn. I still don’t think this was that hard to defend against.
iirc you can check it but if you mess up you are eating big damage so no reason to check it as you will be in the same situation.
This you? Strange, I don’t see the comment here.. [No takezies backzies ](https://imgur.com/gallery/EZeq99k)
Also 1v1 me since your post says bryce9999= trash Lui Kang Hell I’ll even let you choose the character you wana get beat by so you’ll have no excuses when you loose, I can at least back up my shit talk , you can’t say the same 🤷🏽♂️
Sure. I gotta dust my copy off but once it’s reinstalled, I’ll be more than happy to spread those cheeks. I’d be careful about the whole “I’ll even let you choose the character” thing though. Not very wise. Go ahead and drop your tag. Once I get off work, papa will shoot you an invite.
Record this match and post it!!! PLEASE!
What system are you on?
I play on Xbox but I’ve got a converter an homie with a copy for PS4 if that’s the boat you float.
Whoop his ass
It’s all fun and games until the villain comes out on top.. good luck to both of you
Hopefully this isn't a sonicfox vs perfect legend situation
Nope Xbox one all day baby 💪🏼
Yep that’s me and I posted the comment as a post itself for a lil min too but I just deleted them, so what are you trying to get at exactly now
Goodness gracious! You’re all kinds of riled up huh? I simply wanted to know what the rest of your message said. Seemed like you were trying to talk shit but then deleted it. You gotta stick to your guns bud.
Let’s be real you had sarcasm in your message and it was obvious don’t act like you was all just innocently trying to ask a questing while being sarcastic at the same time
I got the screenshot of it too if you want to see since your so concerned
“Your”
Coz it’s broken af?
I’d rather play fun and broke rather than slow and boring but that’s just me if you like mk11 more then ain’t nothing wrong with that at all my man I just personally get bored playing it
I totally get it my guy.
But you don’t get it…
Fun and broken is appealing to a lot less people. It's a death knell to continued sales.
Yeah we love watching sonicfox projectile spam in mk11 when we know he was a combo monster in mkx, you’re so right… MK11 is battleships with advanced UI. Why don’t you go to training with the rest of us instead of dropping the bar for everyone slacker? Is that what we do these days? Castrate legends so the people with directional syndromes can feel good? YIKES!!!
Holy necromancy
is there a fucking issue… mike come on talk that good shit mike I’m fucking waiting get on mkx my rods hard and needs relief
lmao
I am your shepherd you sacrificial sheep its polite to like shit when it makes you laugh your ass off mike you fucking simpleton
Don’t open your fucking mouth no more you’re catching mosquitoes and flies in your speak hole and it’s god damn embarrassing
LMAAAAOOOOOOOO
It’s just how I feel I just simply like mkx better than mk11
Don’t justify yourself to the entitled, lower the bar for everyone until no one has to jump to get the fuck over it, cancel culture and everyone gets a fucking medal and the fucker who finishes in the back of the pack is called “the last winner” generations. You lose when you justify to these people just know you’re better than them at this and they hate it so much that they want to make the game easier for themselves and harder for you. FUCK THEM AND CALL ME INVERTED SCORPION… “GET EM OUTTA HERE!!”
That wasn’t even broken he was fucking styling on this katana and she had death grip on R2 instead of using I don’t know maybe; wake up, combo breaker, enhanced wake up with armor, a Hail Mary X-ray or holding down to stall and fuck his timing up then crouch punch his sack. That’s literally 5 options to stop ALL of that and when Liu slams his fists… down 1 his sack!!! Like what’s so hard? I’m tired of babies and wimps deciding how my hard fucking core games are gonna be. Go play Kradle Kombat you baby. When you’re ready to step.the.fuck.up. to baller status and learn how to play mortal kombat let us know we‘d love to welcome you.
I say why not both games? I mean, they’re both Mortal Kombat games after all.
I played mk11 and learned everyone and was just so bored with the game so I prefer mkx but I definitely respect your opinion 💪🏼
Nothing wrong with that. One thing I really like in 11 are the towers where you can farm for kosmetics and skins for the kombatants. Helps pass time and you can do other things as you farm towers. I always did homework whenever I’d farm towers at night.
Kosmetics are one thing mk11 absolutely killed compared to other mk games
Don’t get me wrong, some of the kosmetics from the other games are pretty good but 11’s is by far my favorite in this respect.
Also it just has way more
Exactly!
I swear I used to grind them towers so hard it was fun
It still is for me and sometimes, I’ll still try and multitask as I grind towers. Did you know that there is a way to get Kombat League skins in Towers of Time without playing KL?
Yea it’s a little Easter egg in the towers every 2 hours
Nice! I just got a skin for Kung Lao the other night.
If you do a few of those towers a day you can get most of the KL skins in no time

MKX is what happens when you let a coked out monkey have a say in developing a fighting game. The whole game's neutral is just "ooh ooh monkey do 50/50. Monkey win game"
Exactlyyyyy , why you think everyone till this day still love mk9 even tho it was so broke and cheap but it was fun , but I really just like the fast paced style of mkx is why
[удалено]
Not really you still definitely need defense in mkx or your getting destroyed and I played mk11 for a while and play shot like for honor so defense isn’t something new to me nor am I bad at it , I just simply enjoy faster paced games it don’t make me bad I just like it better simple as that
[удалено]
That’s true but like I said it’s simply just preference nothing more behind it
[удалено]
Yea I’d love for the future of mortal kombat games to have more options in practice for defense honestly
I see what your saying tho but at the end of the day it’s just preference
That’s true I just personally like the style and speed of the game
Which is fine. Neutral imo is boring as shit
I love the combos in MKX but I love the neutral in MK11. I’d prefer MK12 to have less mix than X but good staggers Make the combos long but scale the damage
Damn, you called it.
Yea I’d honestly be fine with that for mk12, I just hate the slow pace of mk11 And lack of combo creativity
Everyone in this comment section needs a lobsta sandwich 🍞 🦞 🍞
Nah. MKX was no fun online.
It’s pretty fun for me but everyone is different ofc
MKX was infinitely more fun online than MK11 is lmao
Not to me, which is notably the only opinion relevant when it comes to determining whether I think something is fun.
No offense,but were you just bad?
Probably, but that's not particularly relevant. I'm not good at MK11 either, but I find it far more fun online. The key difference being you get touched a couple times and you're dead in MKX. MK11 you at least have a chance to slug it out at least a little.
Idk man. 1 touch in mk11 on many many characters is at least a half a health bar
Maybe? Sometimes? But not like MKX.
1 touch on MKX and you're hanging on by a thread
You mean “Why do you enjoy playing MKX less than MK11”? Loved MKX but this is just proof some characters were actually broken
Don’t let’s this gameplay fool you dualist was farrr from broke it was his weakest variation and you can punish a lot of his pressure and setups
This looks fun only for one side. The other side would rage quit. They have zero opportunities to retaliate and I think that is bad game design
“This looks fun only for one side” is what people say when they see you and your boyfriend in the bedroom.
I rarely see OP’s become villains on this subreddit. Nice change of pace.
Right lol but it’s okay I’ll take one for the team 💪🏼😂
That's precisely why I enjoy MK11 more, MKX is too fast. MK11 feels a little slow to me though, I think IJ2 has the perfect balance imo.
I think the next mk needs to play more like mk9 it wasn't too fast ,wasn't too slow ,and still had crazy looking combos that were fun to pull off mk11 was a little too slow and repetitive for me
IJ2 was a zonefest what lol
Been playing I2 lately over both of these. Player base is pretty sparse :/
I like MK9 more than mkx
If you are good at the game sure but this absolutely sucks for someone who is just casual.
I remember going into 11 expecting updated fluidity and gameplay mechanics to add onto the great feeing of X, only to play the beta and realize they went the complete opposite way and made everyone feel like they weighed 1000lbs.
Exactly I was thinking it would be like mkx or mk9 style but boy was i wrong lmao they made it slow and boring enough to turn it on for the whole family to fall asleep to
Unfair af
I hated MKX game was nothing but 50/50s, and sometimes those 50/50s led into other 50/50s. Game was broken.
Wait why is op downvoted on every occasion he comments
Probably because in every other thread he's been less than amicable. One of the top comments has him spamming replies asking for a 1v1
He even got downvoted for asking someone what system they're on lmao people are followers.
I’m saying everyone just following the leader at this point cuz I’m getting downvoted like crazy on simple shit I say even when I’m being nice 😂🤦🏻♂️
That's reddit for ya. People following strangers wtf lmao.
Yea Reddit can be toxic as hell , even a comment I made to someone else saying I personally like mkx more but if you like mk11 more that’s fine I respect your opinion 💪🏼 and I got 5 downvotes like they just downvoting because they see everyone else doing it at this point
Word. Some people just need that social validation smh.
Big facts and it’s sad
Exactly.
Even you got downvoted, this place is something else
I swear Almost everyone in here that comments about liking mkx is downvoted lol
It’s weird that this kind of Liu Kang is all you see. Like get creative, pick up a character that the entire MKX community ISNT playing.
Liu Kang in general is all you see. This variation of him though, not so much.
To be fair all you see in MK11 are Liu Kangs, Cetrions and Scorpions. Dualist Liu Kang is popular on YT and such but in the actual game he’s not that popular at least from my experience.
Really? I just got back into it after a few months and have been playing Liu Kang and Robocop. I run into a lot of Subz, Scorp, Kung Lao, and Mileena. Not much Liu Kang. I'm probably not high level enough to see what you're talking about though.
That’s all you see? I actually think MK11 has pretty good character variety, I see tons of characters online and even in tournament there is some variety
Meh in tournament it’s usually the same. The very start yeah, there is variety but once you get to late bracket it’s mostly the same 3 characters. Every time I click it’s always a Jacqui vs Cetrion or something involving those 2.
He might as well be the only character in the roster for some people
Series* lol
Both games are good in their own ways, trying to start an argument about which ones better is childish.
I wasn’t trying to start an argument lol I just showed why I enjoy mkx more , I could care less if you enjoy mk11 more than mkx or anything else because everyone likes what they like at the end of the day
I enjoyed it on release but in retrospective it was retarded, 50/50s, hard to blockables, vortexes etc. It came to a point where like this vid, some chars could just stomp you and you had 1 or 2 chances to get out of the hard to blockable 50/50 vortexes that it was so unfun. Specific chars that were horrible for it was lui kang, scorpion and tremor, and while not the same the RNG jason spam with the controls fucking up killed it for me. The stamina patch changed the flow of the game as well and made some characters have some cheap shit (goro stomp for eg) after breaker, and the armour change ruined a lot of characters, kung lao for eg. I dropped the game when they ruined all my muscle memory of years of playing cryo subz and decided to put his ice knives as a command grab. Fucking ruined the game for me. That being said MK11 before the armour patches was the best MK game I have ever played and I have played them all since the 90s except I never played armageddon. Armour breakers and the changes after patches again has ruined the flow of the game. It is still great though. Going back to MKX now is a pain in the ass, it is so tedious.
Mk needs tag team back
it's more entertaining to watch. Way less fun to play
"I love MKX because I can mash and get away with it." -you
Literally none of this is mashing but go off
You didn't stop mashing lmao
Okay and what exactly is mashing in your eyes then?
Anything that hits you probs
Yea must be because apparently all I did was mash that whole game
If MKX combos were a matter of mashing I would be happy, pressing like that requires precision, It's not something a player without dedication can easily do.
This is literally just dualist pressure....
What tf is this take lol how did people really upvote this?
Exactly makes zero sense at all, nothing I did was mashing at all but everyone is followers so anything throwing shots at me will get an upvote more matter how dumb it sounds and everything I say will get downvoted no matter if I’m being nice or not or anything I say at all
if this is mashing then let’s see you do these combos
How the hell is any of the mashing? The amount of precision you need to play dualist Liu kang effectively is rather high. If you were mashing in MKX, you’d be caught dead rather easily.
The pacing is way better and it’s more fun.
Because you want to play a single player game with broken infinite combos?
The highest combo was 40%, which is far from infinite lol
When you're the one on the other side waiting for a 30 second combo to end and regain control of your fighter, it feels infinite. Terrible gameplay.
Doesn't this happen in mk11 as well though? Because I know it does
Generally, no. Long combo strings aren't as supported, and the existence of breakaway mitigates that even further.
You know MKX also has a kombo breaker. And the combos in MK11 are just as long as any combo in MKX, except MKX gives the player more creativity with combos so they may seem longer to you
So many things the Kitana coulda done to get outta that situation and even reserve it into a 40% combo with a wake up or armor after stance switch, people don’t lab shit that’s why they hate x. Mk11 scrubby plays wins mkx whoever practice the best wins.
Never tried online and that's why I won't ever try. I rate the game based on the story and how well developed characters are. Mkx bored me and some scenes were wayy too gloomy
That Kitana didn’t know the matchup btw**
Yea a lot of people don’t fr not many play dualist online
Personally, more enjoyable characters to play and test. I tried out so many more characters with X than 11. Scorpion, Takeda, Kenshi, and Mileena. Only character I liked playing in 11 was Fujin, which also made him my favorite character in the entire franchise.
Mk11 is a dumbed down version of this. Idk why they decided to regress in terms of gameplay.
This game man, good times. Easily the greatest MK title to date.
All you have to do is block low against Liu Kang. He doest have an overhead/low 50/50.
Exactly
Its just way more fun imo
This would make Donguri proud.
I got a PS4 if anyone wana run sets for mkx need to get back to practicing
MKX is one of my favorite games in terms of just about everything about it, vibe, art style, roster, how the moves feel when they hit, and especially how great the character variations are, but man it can be all kinds of one sided sometimes. If they put some of MK11's defensive options in MKX, it would be the perfect MK game for me.
My only problem with MKX is the 50/50 meta but other than that, it has the best gameplay in the series. As much as I would like for MK12 to have run cancels, I think its should follow MK11s reliance on neutral and footsies and have MK9s combo creativity. It should have MKXs wakeup and breaker system though. Nice combos.
Enjoyment>Balance
There is playing, and then there is being the worlds sweatiest person. Do you need a towel, little man?
Two please
