@@sny_guy Question, I'm trying to get it down in the corner but I can't seem to reliably get the lantern on the correct side. Scorpion shoots them back up in the corner and I try to micro dash back to the original side of the combo and end up missing the lantern timing. I was trying with close and normal Scorp cameo. Any tip to get a consistent lantern input side?
I'll admit. As a Li Mei player, I was highly skeptical about her damage output. But it's stuff like this that keeps me playing her day in day out. Good stuff.
I think she has other great options as well but her being able to do damage like this is terrifying. Really appreciate the comment and you checking the video out!! 💪🏽
The fact you put the actual inputs on screen instead of bf1,22,3,bf3,k,ex etc... is just the best your guides are so much easier to execute and beginner friendly. Love the length as well trying to learn a 20-40 minute guide can feel like such a chore everytime you upload genuinely makes me want to get on MK1. Keep up the great work and also Rain is super fun with sub highly recommend
Thank you for saying all these things because I really want to appeal to beginners and casual players. It can be tough sometimes and YES 20min guides are insane haha. I still always feel like I talk too much but I really appreciate your kind words! I will def keep it up and I will for sure get around to Rain. I have always liked him.
while i do agree for beginners it is better but if u want to actually get into competitive play or tournament play in this game u should learn button notation as it is universal so u really won’t have to learn individual inputs for characters u would just know the notation for each input so you’ll be able to understand other characters faster and easier
This is gonna take awhile for me to get the hang of because I’m use to simple combos. BUTT I want to get into the complicated side so I can be more coordinated thanks!
That thumbnail is amazing, definitely caught my eye and I was not disappointed by the video. I'm trying to get my Li Mei off the ground and this guide is going to be extremely helpful for that.
Holy Christ these combos are NASTY. Li Mei is fun to play, but I feel like most players block the 1,2,4 and 2,1 strings so these rarely lead to full combos for me. That’s been my experience in Kombat league at least. Either way, great video!
To play li mei u really wanna just pressure them alot with the 1,2 and then grab them til till they get impatient and u do 1'2 back dash and u can sometimes catch them with the low if they keep on blocking just grab them
for those of u that are struggling on the first combo do: Seeking Sanctuary (Far) Fire Breath Sky Lantern For Freedom (Air) Enhanced Flipping Heel Kick Its easier to connect and it still does like 35%
Won’t lie I think the thing I love most about how you teach is that you have two videos one for the characters game plan and another for combos thank you 🙏🏾
My partner recently started posting TH-cam content, so I have finally understood the importance of letting someone know how great their video is! Not only is it great for more experienced players wanting to pick her up, I’m sending it to a newbie friend bc it’s the perfect pace/explanation. Keep it up 💚
Ok bro i have no intention of watching this video through but this is a goated thumbnail so im leaving this here, a like, and a thank you for offering content here for people other than Baraka/Johnny+Cyrax players. KEEP IT UP
THERE ARE TOO MANY JOHNNY/BARAKA/ RAIDEN with Cyrax out there 😂. I really appreciate it and I’m glad you like the thumbnail! That means you’re a real one 💪🏽
I have been maining Tanya since this game came out because she was my main in the other MK games, but I felt like I had to consistently outplay people so many times to get wins. I started playing li mei and using these combos, and my wins are so much easier. Her damage is crazy lol thank you!!!!!!
Can we get some more combo guides for the other champs that you haven’t done yet and then with what you consider to be the best cameo for them. Thanks again for taking the time to do your research and putting a guide together that’s easy to follow along with.
I got caught up with some life stuff so I barely have time to play too much these days. I want to do some more combo guides but it does take some time for sure. I really appreciate the kind words 🙏🏾
Sadly with li mei you really need to put some time and learning every different combo route with the different gravities. Thats annoying at first, but I guess you really need to spend a lot of time just to learn one character
The best and most informant combo guide I have found to date. Amazing combos, keep up the good work! I would love to see more amazing scorpion kameo combo guides with every character!
you can get 2 sky laterns on the BnB start with scorpion after the db3, its exetremely tight and depends on when you call the assist to get that high pop
yeah you cant dash on the first lantrern or the second one wont come out, its really weird not sure why its happening, have to instantly send out the first lantern then dash cancel the 2nd latern@@sny_guy
Bro ive been playing this pair for a week now and youve shown me a new combo string. Thank you. Im getting 54% corner combo w/ latern set up and only 1 bar/1 kameo before this.
im still learning her, havent mastered her ex-lion reversal punish or instant-overhead and still im haveing so much fun with her shes amazing i hope they dont nerf her or scorp
Yo yo just found you looking for some li mei combo guides and just by chance I clicked on your guide and it must have been fate because I have really enjoyed all of your guides for mk1 so keep doing what your doing because it’s fire. Thanks for putting in the time and posting your vids. Much appreciated and keep ‘‘em coming. ✌️😤👌💨💨💨💨
@@sny_guyBRO this game is just like MK11 where 5-6 characters out the whole roster just body everyone literally. The rest of the characters are mid tier and harder to win with literally just a copy n paste idk why they just won’t make everyone broke
@@Jueksy yeah I def noticed that earlier and decided to just make content and not compete in anything at all. I stayed off the internet for a while and just vibed by myself.
I've watched this video countless times. Really improved my Li Mei gameplay. I'm now confident enough to test her in kasuals. the only thing i struggle with is connecting F3 with Scorpion breath. I just cant get that to land.
@sny_guy played some kasuals with her last night. She sure struggles to open people up, buh she has great tools. Opening people up to use them is the problem with her.
@sny_guy tons of throws and waiting for ur opponent to make a mistake, which doesn't happen often when u're up against a seasoned player. I'll just keep her in the pocket for sets against noobs😂.
Another banger guide 🐐🐐 Ive found that playing right out of jumping distance is a range that alot of players feel uncomfortable in Her b3 and f4 into ex blast really does some nasty business to eager players moving towards you. Both safe and I was getting just about 30ish for a bar for every hit confirm. As li mei frost you gotta be stingy with kameo bar (for her orb setups) but with scorpion being able to spend the bar and a kameo to get a whole 49% off her b3/f4 ex blast hit cons is insane business Also a niche tip After nova blast, you can dash under your opponent and catch them with 43 db3 for clean sideswitch.
Thank you for the tip. I didn’t know about the side switch you damn legend!!! I do love the frost setups but I did get annoyed by conserving kameo bar! Appreciate this post and you checking out the video!!
@@sny_guy Just had to share what I know, youve already optimized my mileena scorp and put me onto mileena lao and mei scorp Looking forward to the next vid/guide bro 🙏
I also like using her enhanced fireball throw lanturn combo to scorpion another lantern the 212 enhanced fireball they will hit 2x then finish with another fireball combo or air kick
Really good video, helped me a lot. MK1 is my first fighting game so the timing dings are super helpful. I play on pc so maybe next time put the moves up with standard notation
All I care about are the new players to be honest! The vets don’t need these guides and I remember how lost I was trying to figure out MK11. I’m very happy this is helpful to you. Thank you so much for watching 🙏🏾
I think scorpion is really her best assist I've seen some high level players like foxy Grandpa use lao because it makes her a more well-rounded character but when you're getting over 400 damage you really are being a better character. Using a cameo just to get an extra hundred damage is one thing but literally doubling or tripling your damage puts you in another tier
Honestly Goro is really hard to beat. I guess it depends on how confident you are in whiff punishing and footsies. In this game pressure is everything so it’s hard to say who is better.
@@sny_guy yeah im currently contemplating who to chose. In regards to whiff punishing i wonder if you use her f4. I have my special input window set to short and when i try to backdash into a f4 it almost always reads it as bf4 so i have a hard time whiff punishing with her
@@thomas4489 No way your inputs are at short and that still happens??? F4 is def the move for whiffing if you know you going to get ‘em. You’re already all over that.
@@sny_guyyeah i just try to wait like a split second before inputing the f4. So no dash cancel with the f4. Another thing and i hope im not bothering you but do you manage to do her reversal combo in the right corner with scorpion? Because i manage to do it midscreen and in the left corner. But in the right corner the exact same inputs as in the left corner dont seem to connect.
@@thomas4489 I’m gonna be honest I struggle a bit in the right corner because weird side switches happen. Left corner is always fine. Input wise I guess I haven’t had much issue there tho. And trust me, you’re never bothering me!
I’m ashruh main and she’s pretty easy to execute , this is fast finger stuff and cameo direction awareness and map positioning. It’s gonna take a lot of work lol
I've been absolutely loving Li Mei & Scorpion. Just about anything is a combo starter and she hits quite damn hard too. The only things she can't do is combo off of back throw and armor.
Nicely made video. I uploaded high damage combo, but i doubt i could execute a description vid as good as this. Love seeing Li Mei gameplay, maybe bc i like seeing folks getting hit with lanterns. I liked using Li n Scorpion for a bit, but i kept messing up my Kam calls when it came to switching sides and remembering whether to use far, mid, or close fireball. Went back to Li n Cyrax (da GOAT) and found some easy 50%ers using corner, can check shorts on channel. Trying to use Li n Lao currently for the low hit assist. Found a few 34-40ish dmg combos for mid screen and corner.
I am 100% checking out your shorts. Cyrax is too good in general so I’m excited to see the corner setups! I like how Lao can extend her combos in the corner!
Nice guide! You can do 4% more damage with db4 in air with j134 db4. You also can punish pokes with db3 with amp db3 kameo(you should press it very fast) b34 db3 kameo db2 j134 db4. Different kombo route, not better than yours, just to show off with different combos:) 12 bf1 amp b34 db3 kameo 34 db3 kameo db1 j212 db4. You also can use fatal blow after db2 in these combos, but you need you need your opponent to fly really high after the db2
A ton of these were tough and I wanted to make this more beginner friendly. I struggled to execute a full j134 into flipping heel kick with some of the gravity scaling. Punishing pokes into scorpion damn near feels impossible with the 4 less frames of hit advantage you get from enhanced shi zi. Def appreciate all the tips though! Will try my best to implement!
@@sny_guy Well, i cant do your versions of combos because of the j134, the db4 whiffs :) Ive been pracicing punishing pokes for an hour, at first it seemed very hard, but after an hour i can say its definitely useful in a real match, but it really needs practice
@@sny_guy After the amplified db4 into Scorpion it is consistent though, you have to summon Scorpion between the 1 and 2 hit of the db4, then neutral jump 134 db4 is kinda easy
@@КарлКарыч well on the 1bar and 1 kameo combos I can do it but once you start mixing 2 Kameos in it gets really sketch. In most of the combos I do j134 tho!
Great guide. Dope combos. It is stupid as hell though that you can't dial the chain reaction in the longer combos. If you input chain reaction to quickly then calculated comes out instead. Dunno why thats like that
Funnily enough you can still get multiple consecutive lanterns if they don't hit the opponent while li mei's still holding them. For example: 124 cancel into lantern and far scorp when 2 connects. After that lantern explodes, you can toss another, then another, though by then the gravity makes it hard to continue the combo. That's just a wacky example, but in nearly all of her combos with the free lantern setup, if you time scorp a bit earlier you'll be able to whip out more lanterns, as long as they don't explode in your hand. I hope they don't nerf that 😂
Awesome guide man was looking forward to learning her finally after Liu kang and scorp she’s in my top 3 forsure so much fun to use and idk if it’s cuz im shit at the timing or hoping it got patched for my ego’s sake 😂 but that forward 43 back 34 2 kameo combo is not coming out for some reason too much gravity on the back 34 and bf4 to connect 🤔 anyways love the guide tho man def using some of these in online man keep up the dope work! Edit holy shit man finally got it lmao thought I was going crazy it’s the positioning on back 23 had to be further back to get more air on the kick
I looovveeee the counter zoning. Helps with people that use Lao Kameo. I also like how you can confirm into freeze but the damage is kind of lacking and you can’t really pressure a ton. Still think he’s really solid though!
Trying to get her down, struggling a bit to feel comfortable with her. Scorpion is great if you get the setups timed right. But sometimes I feel like my hands are tied, like if your not getting those down, its like a wasted kameo spot. Guess it comes down to more practice.
any tips for the timing on the b3, 4 for the 1 bar 1 kameo strings. i my opponent just flies over my head or the 4 misses, everything else is so easy. great vid btw
Your guides are actually amazingly well put together and I can now finally learn a BNB after 12 hours of looking for something decent. Thanks
Well you are pretty damn amazing for saying that. I appreciate you and really just glad that this helped!!! 💪🏽

Ngl you make me want to play her. I started with her and then played mileena. Oh ty for button inputs!! 🙌🏽🙌🏽
Yes I got y’all when it comes to inputs! Hopefully NRS will add tagging soon!! She is fun to play. Frustrating at times, but really fun.
@@sny_guy already in practice mode! Thanks again!
@@Versatile_fitness yesssssssss!!!
I think scorpion is really her best assist I've seen some high level players like foxy Grandpa use lao because it makes her a more well-rounded character but when you're getting over 400 damage you really are being a better character. Using a cameo just to get an extra hundred damage is one thing but literally doubling or tripling your damage puts you in another tier
This is all true. The problem with Scorpion is that he doesn’t help you open your opponent up so if that’s that case, you gotta switch!
These combos are insane and you can send someone through roof with the amount rage you’ll put them through 😂.
🤣🤣🤣🤣 have you sent someone through the roof yet yourself??
I saw sonicfox use that f3 overhead to somehow cancel into the overhead flip kick
Whhaaaaaaaa!!! 🥵 that’s sick lol
Only subscribed for the S-tier thumbnail
Appreciate that!!! 💪🏽
Thanks for the guide mate
Would you say the scorpion is the best kameo for her? Because i really enjoy the ability to make myself safe with goro
Honestly Goro is really hard to beat. I guess it depends on how confident you are in whiff punishing and footsies. In this game pressure is everything so it’s hard to say who is better.
@@sny_guy yeah im currently contemplating who to chose. In regards to whiff punishing i wonder if you use her f4. I have my special input window set to short and when i try to backdash into a f4 it almost always reads it as bf4 so i have a hard time whiff punishing with her
@@thomas4489 No way your inputs are at short and that still happens??? F4 is def the move for whiffing if you know you going to get ‘em. You’re already all over that.
@@sny_guyyeah i just try to wait like a split second before inputing the f4. So no dash cancel with the f4. Another thing and i hope im not bothering you but do you manage to do her reversal combo in the right corner with scorpion? Because i manage to do it midscreen and in the left corner. But in the right corner the exact same inputs as in the left corner dont seem to connect.
@@thomas4489 I’m gonna be honest I struggle a bit in the right corner because weird side switches happen. Left corner is always fine. Input wise I guess I haven’t had much issue there tho. And trust me, you’re never bothering me!
Thumbnail was Legendary 😂
😅😅😅. Appreciate it!!!
I’m ashruh main and she’s pretty easy to execute , this is fast finger stuff and cameo direction awareness and map positioning. It’s gonna take a lot of work lol
You aren’t lying about acting you just said 😅😅😅
lol about time somebody figured out my main
She’s awesome. I just like the way she runs her game plan.
God like combos 😊
This is a godlike comment 💪🏽
Good explanation
Appreciate it!!!
@@sny_guy I’m practicing right now
🥶🥶crazy guide
Yooooo Jose I appreciate this!!! Thank you for checking the video out 🙏🏾
I've been absolutely loving Li Mei & Scorpion. Just about anything is a combo starter and she hits quite damn hard too.
The only things she can't do is combo off of back throw and armor.
If she could combo off her armored she would be legendary lol.
I found a way to turn her back throw into 30% but it’s a secret. Can’t be giving out my tech now.
@@joshuacarter4590 I think this throw tech might be more common knowledge than you think! 😅
@@sny_guy haha most likely 😂
Nicely made video. I uploaded high damage combo, but i doubt i could execute a description vid as good as this. Love seeing Li Mei gameplay, maybe bc i like seeing folks getting hit with lanterns. I liked using Li n Scorpion for a bit, but i kept messing up my Kam calls when it came to switching sides and remembering whether to use far, mid, or close fireball. Went back to Li n Cyrax (da GOAT) and found some easy 50%ers using corner, can check shorts on channel. Trying to use Li n Lao currently for the low hit assist. Found a few 34-40ish dmg combos for mid screen and corner.
I am 100% checking out your shorts. Cyrax is too good in general so I’m excited to see the corner setups! I like how Lao can extend her combos in the corner!
Amazing video
Appreciate you!!! 🙏🏾
Nice guide! You can do 4% more damage with db4 in air with j134 db4. You also can punish pokes with db3 with amp db3 kameo(you should press it very fast) b34 db3 kameo db2 j134 db4. Different kombo route, not better than yours, just to show off with different combos:) 12 bf1 amp b34 db3 kameo 34 db3 kameo db1 j212 db4. You also can use fatal blow after db2 in these combos, but you need you need your opponent to fly really high after the db2
A ton of these were tough and I wanted to make this more beginner friendly. I struggled to execute a full j134 into flipping heel kick with some of the gravity scaling. Punishing pokes into scorpion damn near feels impossible with the 4 less frames of hit advantage you get from enhanced shi zi. Def appreciate all the tips though! Will try my best to implement!
@@sny_guy Well, i cant do your versions of combos because of the j134, the db4 whiffs :) Ive been pracicing punishing pokes for an hour, at first it seemed very hard, but after an hour i can say its definitely useful in a real match, but it really needs practice
@@sny_guy After the amplified db4 into Scorpion it is consistent though, you have to summon Scorpion between the 1 and 2 hit of the db4, then neutral jump 134 db4 is kinda easy
@@КарлКарыч I can imagine it being way too good in matches. I’m excited to get better at it.
@@КарлКарыч well on the 1bar and 1 kameo combos I can do it but once you start mixing 2 Kameos in it gets really sketch. In most of the combos I do j134 tho!
Great guide. Dope combos. It is stupid as hell though that you can't dial the chain reaction in the longer combos. If you input chain reaction to quickly then calculated comes out instead. Dunno why thats like that
I’m with you 100% on that. Li Mei is the only character that I struggle with this on. Appreciate you checking out the video!! 💪🏽
Funnily enough you can still get multiple consecutive lanterns if they don't hit the opponent while li mei's still holding them. For example:
124 cancel into lantern and far scorp when 2 connects. After that lantern explodes, you can toss another, then another, though by then the gravity makes it hard to continue the combo. That's just a wacky example, but in nearly all of her combos with the free lantern setup, if you time scorp a bit earlier you'll be able to whip out more lanterns, as long as they don't explode in your hand.
I hope they don't nerf that 😂
I hope for this too!
Scorpion is def my fav kameo for Li Mei
He’s pretty damn good and hard not to use once that damage starts going off….
Awesome guide man was looking forward to learning her finally after Liu kang and scorp she’s in my top 3 forsure so much fun to use and idk if it’s cuz im shit at the timing or hoping it got patched for my ego’s sake 😂 but that forward 43 back 34 2 kameo combo is not coming out for some reason too much gravity on the back 34 and bf4 to connect 🤔 anyways love the guide tho man def using some of these in online man keep up the dope work!
Edit holy shit man finally got it lmao thought I was going crazy it’s the positioning on back 23 had to be further back to get more air on the kick
Yeah the timing on that is weird! I’m glad you were able to knock it out!!
Thoughts on sub with her? You can get good damage but not as much off a catch, however he’s mad helpful for counter zoning
I looovveeee the counter zoning. Helps with people that use Lao Kameo. I also like how you can confirm into freeze but the damage is kind of lacking and you can’t really pressure a ton. Still think he’s really solid though!
Thank you for putting the moves in the corner!
Of course!!! Thank you for checking the video out!!
Trying to get her down, struggling a bit to feel comfortable with her. Scorpion is great if you get the setups timed right. But sometimes I feel like my hands are tied, like if your not getting those down, its like a wasted kameo spot. Guess it comes down to more practice.
Yeah it’s tough at first but once you get it down you’ll be cooking!
Great guide thanks, im having issues connecting back 3 4 after the enhanced blast any tips?
You have to be soooooo EARLY it’s silly. I still drop it quite a bit. Appreciate you watching the video!!!
any tips for the timing on the b3, 4 for the 1 bar 1 kameo strings. i my opponent just flies over my head or the 4 misses, everything else is so easy. great vid btw
i find stand 4,3 easier than b3,4
I agree with what Shawn is saying. 43 is easier but b34 does more damage. Start entering back 3 when the opponent is at head level.
I got a combo using 1 bat and 1 kameo that does around 47-48% depending on which combination of air combo you use
Yeah I struggled with consistency on some of the air combos myself.
