    I hope he tries to Kang mirror match me, his mad ravings and deludedness about my character have finally driven him insane. ^^

    Other than that I'm guessing Stryker, best AA.

    Well I guess we're just going have to wait and C won't we?

    Man don't get me started..Liu Kang IS OP

    His X-ray is an ant-air overhead attack that allows combo potential afterwards leading to a cluster **** amount of frustration

    The w***** can get up to 40+ percent using the bloody <3 1 2 block string that has a copious amount of FA on block without blowing any meter, if i do Down D you will probably break from the mad amount of meter you stored from that block string.

    Hell I may also have a breaker stored from losing almost half my health but wait...

    I'll be too busy being chipped to death across the screen when Liu Kang decides to turn into a pretty decent zoner

    Oh hey, lets jump over them till I reach Liu kang on the other side...Oh wait, HE CAN SHOOT THEM IN THE AIR TOO

    So how about I do a move with plenty of armor?

    I get to the other side then...BAM, Liu Kang parried the attack and killed me, Finish him, "Dragon Transformation" Fatality, Throll face

    Let's put it lightly, There was a game where I played Sektor against him and I was s****** myself because I was afraid he would out zone me!!..ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THE SCREEN..AND I'M A ZONER AND HE'S A BLOODY RUSHDOWN CHARACTER

    Sigh...I am slowly getting better at dealing with it though and he's not too bad:pac:

    Advice: Down D...a lot
    And pick Kratos cause this match up is probably the only 5:5 match up in the game for Liu Kang as the rest are 9:1


    P.S I may have gotten a tad bit salty back there:/

    I've been listening to the DoC videos' commentary for the Mortal Kombat matches. Some of the commentary from the day was quite good, some was really bad, it would be good to get some consistency there.
    This article is very recommended reading for you lads (by our very own Doctor Doom):

    http://streetfighter.ie/index.php/2011/08/19/doctor-dooms-beginners-guide-to-commentary/

    Props to Original Razor btw, as a newbie, I'm well impressed with the commentary I've listen to so far.

    what would u consider the good and the bad?
    not asking you to put anyone on blast,just would like your input :)

    The videos aren't all uploaded yet, so I haven't watched enough to really put anyone "on blast".

    Doom might be a more informed person to comment on this than me, but so far I don't think I can say 100% there were good and bad people, but there was definitely good and bad combinations of commenting teams.

    it isnt,its fair

    noob doesnt have the best rushdown game apart from trying to land portal resets and abusing upknee,
    so he has to depend on zoning,
    before it became a overhead in last patch u could just dash and low block to get in on noob and noob couldnt do anything,he needed it


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 966 ✭✭✭Jun_DP101


    good point, it shouldn't cause knockdown though as well, should be one or the other(overhead or knockdown), it's too good atm

    knockdowns in mk a bad thing though,
    as it gives the option of having 10 invinceable frames on there wake up attack to get in which noob doesnt want,
    except if hes in close the knockdown gives noob time to backdash to safe zoning areas, the recovery on low/overhead clones very bad up close/mid on block or whiff
    like baraka charge is 10 frames so i can wakeup your next clone if u knock me down with one

    'Twas a pleasant experience seeing all the new (well, new to the community)
    MK heads, and getting a good banter going on and off the mic.

    Now, who's hype for TYH?!


  • Registered Users Posts: 196 ✭✭OriginalRazer
