Geras in this game has so much tech and such great depth with what he can do, i probably couldnt scratch the surface if i tried him. But always a pleasure to see how you view the character. Super informative
@@burritovoorhees yes, it was either during the spooky block or darth arma block of day one. I wanna say it was around when Grr or the following Geras lost. It was wild to me.
Amazing video! Thanks for putting this all together! Nice to have it all in one place. Looking to try learning Geras soon, its nice to have so many viable kameo options.
I think meterlessly you get more with one teleport cancel. I get 35% max 34 % min. Teleport also stalls a lot for kameo regen. Also you have more step up and reset options
I feel like sub-zero and geras is the most optimal shell for him. Allows him to confirm off 12 meterlessly and allows him to set up clocks in between combos while still going good damage.
Any insight into the timing of the kung Lao kameo teleport combo? Every time I try it they fall out of the temporal advantage before I reappear with kung Lao
For sure no problem, it depends on the normal or string you do the teleport combo with. With F2 you have to teleport pretty fast. When I do it with F2, I do it like “F2,BF1,Teleport” all in one sequence
Does anyone lag really bad online when playing with geras? I have a series s and the game runs great with everyone else but for some reason whenever I play geras online it lags super bad whenever his hourglass moves come out
Whenever I’m labbing hella I feel like doing some of his animations made it lag but I’ve had that happen with Mei as well when labbing her, not sure if it’s MK or the characters themselves
Firm Lao believer, the tele time stop combos allow you to get hourglasses for reverses especially against those 50% a touch chars as a safety net but also extra dmg when needed. But the main helper is that low hat, bullying ppl by spamming it helps his neutral alot since his own projectile is worthless, not to mention those Low OH set ups. My two cents
So in the process of making this video, I learned for the first time that if you keep reusing a clip (since I was editing a lot of clips to make this video) for some reason it doesn’t retain its resolution. The resolution must’ve progressively gotten worse over the editing, ps4-5 share factory is what I used to edit. Now I’m aware of this so I’ll just have to make my videos all in one take without edits to avoid this issue
Yo there's some tech with geras/jax that I found yesterday. If you do a string into time stop and set up the ground pound when they're frozen it will not only give you good damage but you can use the ground pound again for free after jax hits them up to 3 times so you can Ethier go for a set up with 122 or you can try and refreeze them with specific timing. I have a video on my channel showing the max damage you can probably get with it (probably) but I just thought I'd share some of this tech
Its really hard to get the full kombo but it is possible especially the first 2 freezes and if you don't get the 3rd freeze you'll still do like 46%. On the 3rd freeze I do have an idea of trying to set up the inevitable snap but I don't know how you would relaunch them high enough without them falling too fast. I'm excited to see what will come from this
If you’re talking the graphics quality that is because of share factory (I actually learned this in the process of making this video unfortunately), if you make a clip but keep reusing the same clip to add more stuff to, the resolution gets worse. Idk why but it’s something I now know. As far as my mic quality, I know it’s not the best. I need to find a better mic. I hope the gameplay/knowledge was at least high in quality
Awesome breakdown! I like that you're actually explaining this as you go through it. I'm thinking about Lao kameo with Geras even though it's kinda hard with the execution. I mostly use Cyrax and Darrius kameo, so I might start out with them.

He’s got so much freedom, it’s why I love using him and he’s always designed super well aesthetically
Imagine my surprise yesterday hearing the commentators at ECT call him low tier.
@@Dark_Tesla someone said geras was low tier?
@@burritovoorhees yes, it was either during the spooky block or darth arma block of day one. I wanna say it was around when Grr or the following Geras lost. It was wild to me.
Amazing stuff! Very detailed and useful. Thanks for sharing!

Yea I love how many kameos geras can use
Though old, video was definitely helpful thanks for taking the time to share some knowledge, i appreciate u
@@BRM2X I appreciate the kind words, i plan to make an updated version when the game is closer to the end of its DLC
@@burritovoorhees I'll be looking for it
Thank you for taking the time and sharing this knowledge.
Trying to share all I can always
Can you do a short video on just using geras clone. Explain timing in using it stuff. I can’t figure it out yet.
As a Geras/Sektor main, I had zero clue of the majority of those setups. Back to the lab I go.
with frost you can also get a clock after doing freeze of a string then continue combo with f24
For real? I thought they weren’t frozen long enough. How do you do it
er think its just tight timing, i upload clip on my utube
I think meterlessly you get more with one teleport cancel. I get 35% max 34 % min. Teleport also stalls a lot for kameo regen. Also you have more step up and reset options
What teleport cancel combos do you do?
I love this guide so much!
grats for so deep geras breakdown.
btw ur combos are insane 🤪
Thanks, I really wanted to be as informative as possible on this guide
I feel like sub-zero and geras is the most optimal shell for him. Allows him to confirm off 12 meterlessly and allows him to set up clocks in between combos while still going good damage.
I think sub is definitely a sleeper kameo for geras
Nice guide! Thanks for all your efforts and time spent in creating this! I'll be very helpfull to improve my Geras!
Thank you for the kind words!

I agree, I am gonna start using other kameos in tournament once I practice enough with them
Inputs for the 75% goro combo?
You’re the best gear is out there
Thanks!!!
whats up with the video quality?

great video. share your matches in ranked
I think tremor would be good with geras i mean like in my opinion because they both really are like earth benders so to say.
Can we get time stamps for each kameo?
I can put that in the comments but I’m not sure if there’s a way for me to do that in the video itself
@burritovoorhees I think it adds to the video afterwards but if not comments works amazing! ty for this guide improved my play so fast
@@DanielSmith-ll2iw hell yea I’m glad it helped you improve
🐐
Thank you for this guide !
Hearing Motaro is bot4 with Geras hurts my heart.

Do you have a link to the video

Bro make guide for Geras with (Scorpion) kameo, thx
What's your favorite kameo?
Honestly it’s hard to say, I think cyrax now but I’m gonna start using others more in tournaments just gotta get the muscle memory down
that 75 is pretty crazy, sucks they dont synergize as well. just curious is that the highest damage youve seen in game so far?
I think so? I can’t remember if I seen anything higher damaging than that
Forgot his best kameo, shujinko 😂
Great video but the quality is not so much :(
If you’re talking the graphics quality that is because of share factory (I actually learned this in the process of making this video unfortunately), if you make a clip but keep reusing the same clip to add more stuff to, the resolution gets worse.

@@burritovoorheesit was.
Jeez m8...you r genius
Thanks lol
Awesome breakdown! I like that you're actually explaining this as you go through it.
I'm thinking about Lao kameo with Geras even though it's kinda hard with the execution. I mostly use Cyrax and Darrius kameo, so I might start out with them.
Lao is pretty good with geras, he is a bit harder to use compared to the other kameos but is very rewarding
Lao or goro is the way imo. Lao you get in meterless time stop and with goro you can restand with almost any combo.
play with shao plz
