The Strangest Secret Character - Competitive History of Meat
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 1 ส.ค. 2024
- Wanted to change the pace somewhat in my Competitive MK Character History series! This time with one of the more beloved secret characters the franchise has ever seen.
Interestingly, he's actually one of the more standout characters in Armageddon. If you have the stomach for it.

EDIT - Check out my latest episode where we cover Fujin! th-cam.com/video/BkyzpJmAUSk/w-d-xo.html
As absolutely expected this video got demonetised instantly but I really wanted to do a more obscure character this time round. He really is interesting in Armageddon.
There's no getting around the visual nature of Meat so I'll take this one on the chin. Enjoy!
I hope you will cover the competitive history of our beloved matokan warrior Nightwolf at some point.
mad how dose youtube know? thats mad
Please do more videos on the 3d era games, rhey are really nostalgic
Dont forget that he was in the mk 11 krypt and he is a kombat kard in mk x
@@FloodisHorkos4212 nice to see you feel better Joshua
to be honest I think the idea of meat was that it just bleeds everywhere and the joke that parents didn't like the gory blood of MK so they added a character that was nothing but gore
:)
I love that concept I'd do the exact same thing
i think from mk4 they had these parts of damaged char parts for fatalities and they decided hey let's make for fun just one guy who is all these damaged parts put together(why not).
I love the concept of achievements through sheer spite lmao
Instead, they should make it so there is a chance that a character will turn into meat by being burnt by scorpion or getting frostbite by sub-zero
2:08 When your meat beats you
Happens to me all the time in quarantine
r/cursedcomments
Only in Soviet Russia
Exclusively made by EA and a Russian exclusive. Better Pay up now.
( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡ °)
I guess you could call Meat in MK4 the first ever character deskin
That was creative
I love how Meat still has the decency to cover up somehow
It’s a chastity belt
@@ThefifthBishopofGord no beating my meat (lenny face)
@@ThefifthBishopofGord wtf
@@ThefifthBishopofGord yikes
lol
If you taunt someone irl by pulling your eyeball out of its socket and letting it dangle, that would be a real power move.
2nd most powerful power move ever
@@meme_market5949 which is number 1?
I'd be like "You know what. You got it, boss" and walk away.
@@cosmicdoodles2992 probably both eyes
ROACH DOGG JR
I can't tell whats more weird the fact he was goofy or the fact he was good
How is it weird that he is goofy or good?
@@mawrkus8664 Goofy in the relatively serious game of MK and good, since characters like this are generally designed to be terrible.
@@mawrkus8664 goofy cause hes literally a sentient chunk of meat
Good as in joke charecters are usually just that a joke and nothing more
@@mawrkus8664 r/woooosh
@@BeeWaifu Mortal Kombat a serious game, Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha. It's always been kinda goofy of a series.
I just realized how painful that would be to slide your open bare skin on concrete like he does
I think he's used to it by now so it doesn't bother him
A Degenerate Named EJ pain is the only feeling that doesn’t decrease over time . He can’t get used to it
Parsa Shirali Mortal Kombat nerve damage
mindlessunrobot well we are trying to make sense of a character In a game series known to not make sense so
Parsa Shirali true, if people can get up after getting their necks snapped then there’s no need to talk about pain
I wish that when Meat got his skin taken off, he'd have regular skin beneath the meat.
Well if he was playable, i wanna see him before his transformation.
Maybe being a half undead half necromancer being able to control his body remotely.
Thus moves I imagine to be:
Head throw,
Skeleton hand claw,
Temporary stun grab,
Meager regen skeleton hand stab,
High knockback meat hand punch
Blood slide
High damage self damaging heavy punch/kick.
I kinda see him as a brute with little to no regard for his body. He uses his health to deal high damage that are easy to dodge normally. He has to constantly hit the opponent to stay in the fight. His head attack doesn't do much and is a last resort as it's cool down is unbearable.
His technique is just using his sorcerery to move with a goal of getting close to the opponent at all costs however it's weakness is it's inability to sustain itself without dealing damage. As such a foe can easily choose how to approach him.
Overall high punishment low control character that is dependent on mistakes of the enemy. Waiting is hardly an option as health will decrease steadily until three quater of his health. High knockback and jump attacks are his main way to get into close quarters, after this match is almost forfeit.
Murat Tan That just sounds like Havik with extra steps
@@HauptmannKrause maybe
i remember reading his lore back in ps2 saying he always feel immense pain even from dust cause he has no skin, like geeez he feel all those and deciding to enter a kombat...
Not to mention hes always sliding around and getting punched this dude gotta like the pain 💀
To be fair, when everything is agony and you've had to get used to it, punches probably aren't much worse than what he's constantly feeling.
He rips his eye out as a taunt, he doesn't give a f
I think he just got used to the pain or something, I mean the man launches his head for crying out loud
No wonder Earthrealm lost the first 9 tournaments (Not sure if that's still the lore)
I now want Meat in MK11 even more after learning he's a grappler!
Sad ur bad
Nah Hsu Hao that was his fighting style.
I'm down with Meat returning in Mortal Kombat 11. It would bring more variety and originality to the roaster and offers alot of creativity for revamping. Also @#$% the haters! 🍖🍗🥩🥓
🖕🏿
@@elmono6299 Meat was pretty much made to show off the gore graphics of MK, seeing that MK11 is making use of their best tech yet, its the best time to bring him back~
and yes, @#$% haters xD
Well sometimes the meat beats you
in real life, you beat your meat
in mk, the meat beats you
🖕🏿

@@ThefifthBishopofGord im sorry
@@LlLnig okay
Alternative title: “watch meat beat his meat”
He was beating everybody’s meat
He must consult with his meat
When you realise mk armaggedon did the "brought back all character" thing before smash ultimate
Pretty sure other series did it before mk armageddon. Loved playing that game.
MK Trilogy did it first.
Is Frost in Armageddon?
@@icyatlasartworks yeah. Every character.
@Şpøŕčķỹ, O Cara Chato Da Internet ತಎತ ....and havik. At least, I never saw havik. Or Kid Thunder.
I would really like if they added meat as a secret character, not as dlc because hes not really ment for that. But since they probably have a 3d model of the characters "meat", it would be cool. Kinda sad secret characters have been complitly replaced be dlc.
MrTeucro99 breaks my heart
Yeah, I actually miss the days where we had to earn them
@@hidan407 ye. Now you just have to earn money to buy em
Well, there ARE secret characters -- IN DLC. Triborg had Cyber Sub Zero as a secret character.
current mk would never do something like that where they wouldn't be able to charge people for a bonus character, unfortunately
I don't know why but for me his friendship would be a T-Pose
I hate myself for laughing at this
@@topaz_talon I know I know
@Elias Black ?
No, because he looks like a Character being modeled, or a bootleg
It would be him dangling his meat
....his whole body of course,that's what i'm talking about.. definitely
*LOOKS LIKE MEAT'S BACK ON THE MENU, BOYS!*
That's from LOtR right ?
I used to main Meat in Armageddon. I never knew he was just cheap. I remember my cousin was one of those always-want-to-win types so he stopped playing Armageddon with me pretty quickly.
"Fleshed out." OH YOU KNEW WHAT YOU WERE DOING.
Fatality ideas for Meat:
- Fleshed Out: Meat stands to the side of the opponent and slices down on them like a guillotine with his cleaver, skinning the front of the opponent's torso in a clean cut. Meat performs his grapple and slams their back across his knee, freeze framing as their guts explode from their stomach.
- Ahead: Meat rips his own head off and makes it bite into the opponents throat, ripping it out like Liu Kang in MKX. As they bleed from their throat, Meat grabs his head by its stretchy eye and uses it as a flail to crush the opponent.
- Skin Dip: Meat jumps onto the opponent and both dissappear into a puddle of blood on the floor. After a few seconds, Meat emerges from the puddle, peeling off the pieces of skin that the opponent left on him.
I could imagine Meat being reimagined as some giant "The Thing" type monster being held deep inside the Outworld palace in a future title. Maybe a sub-boss with shapeshifting powers? Imagine having to fight Meat in a lair smeared with gore that he could sink into to teleport or change forms
In the mk Armageddon meat ending he aquires shape shifting powers, but because He can be anyone he is not really himself anymore, feeling empty he disappears to be never seen again
absolutely disgusting, i love it
That's obscene bro I love it. Gory and brutal!!!
It would be probably be kinda silly to bring back Meat in the modern MK context, but I think it would be a really cool character design for Skarlet to use Meat as like a puppet character. She controls blood, so she creates Meat and uses her blood magic to move him around like a weird fleshy automaton.
Glad to see breakdowns on some of the weird characters in MK's history, a lot of folks like to sweep the 3D MKs under the rug. They're not GREAT games, but they're wacky fun.
Or you could have Meat be the first blood mage. And his name might not have been "Meat", but everyone ended up calling him that because nobody could recognize him anymore. He could even be a teacher for Skarlet, and might warn her about how blood magic might actually be more of a curse than a strength.
@@theorangelantern8771 and why is a curse?
@@Ahrone1586 Look at his body. HE HAS NO SKIN. I'm pretty sure you can see how it can be a curse.
@@technounionrepresentative4274 Meat the blood god,
I donno how to feel about this.
@@temkin9298 *f e a r .*
I wish we could see a revamped Meat or Mokap. I've always loved joke characters, its a bummer modern MK takes itself painfully seriously
You must be completely put of your mind if you think it takes itself seriously lmao. If anything MK11 compared to X and 9 is a much, much more light hearted and goofy game.
@@reservoirfrogs2177 A lot of Midway Era folks seem to think that about lately. Music, visuals, whatever, fans seem to think that the current MK has "lost" what made their series so special even though they tend to forget or ignore that those fans did not like or even appreciate guys like Meat or Mokap.
I would love to see meat return in mk11 or a future mk game. he has potential to be a very cool character
It would be kool if he was secret kharacter
MK needs more dedicated grapplers.
If I remember correctly his head was a usable in the klassic towers of MK11
Hes swimming in pools of blood in the krypt
@@hoohag5371
He also occasionally jumpscares you when you use Kenshi's blindfold.
Looks like Vinny had his character in a fighting game before it was cool.
The amount of damage that meat had in mka made me think he was a boss character.
I really love how you don’t just explain the character! You explain the utility of his ablitities
I want them to add this character to MK11 and make him laugh and smile everytime he gets killed by a fatality
Unironically one of my favorite MK characters. Very fond memories involving him.
I can only think of vinny's beloved worm puppet when I hear the word meat used as a character's name.
I was so sure that Meat was featured in Deadly Alliance that I was going to leave a comment about it, until I looked it up and realized I was thinking of Drahmin the Oni, another skinless character.
I mean Drahmin is pretty much Meat but way better.
Drahmin isn't skinless though
I was thinking the same, but it turned out *I* was thinking of Blaze! Hidden? Check. Copies other fighters? Check. Wears almost nothing? Check.
Meat: Throws his head as a projectile
Fatality: "Am I a joke to you?"
Grew up playing Armageddon and was never disappointed with the roster😂
10:17 Hmmm, windy, I wonder....
(Bruh obviously Fujin lol)
You might have been baited. It could be bo rai cho
Or Hsu Hao and his windy palm clap? Maybe Jade and her Vanishing Winds? Suspense!
@@GockGawk9000 LMAO true😂
Meat is underrated and should’ve been on MK 11
I agree. Meat deserves a comeback. 🍖🍗🥩🥓
I was a big Hsu Hao fan so when Armageddon released the similarities made me play meat a lot back in the day
You’re weird if u like Hsu Hao
@@blainecarter990 you arent wrong
@@blainecarter990 nah
wow that's a first
I kno it's weird, but 1 of my favorite things in comix/fiction is when continuity and redundancy gets cleaned up. In the MKU, think of the reveal that NoobSaibot was the mk1 SubZero. I think another awesome retcon would be that MEAT "evolved" into Drahmin.
or maybe drahmin became meat ove time
Now this is the content I want directly injected into my veins.
Great job as always guys.
Chameleon: HAH! I am every ninja in game.
Meat: I AM EVERY CHARACTER.
Man, the next Super Meat Boy looks amazing!
I don't even play MK, but i just have to say that this is very interesting and structured video. I love it subbed!
My favorite move in MK is the arm cross fall backwards teleport.
Hilarious.
Nothing better during quarantine than K&M playing and talking about their Meat.
Meat, Meat, Meat!
I like them talking about beating their meat
Meat moves
Bowling ball
**teleports behind you**
Eye fling
The meat slide
No be seriously they should of put the sound of someone slapping meat for the sound effects
Honestly I would die laughing if Meat gets added to Mk11.
2:54 this air combo was insane.
An obscure yet crazy character, awesome stuff. Looking forward to the Fujin episode.
PLEASE I'M BEGGING YOU MAKE THESE MORE OFTEN. THIS ARE SO GOOD!!!! But I'll always watch what you guys make.
His (forward, forward) and (back, back) teleportation is so satisfying
Armageddon was the most fun game. Unlocking all characters was fun!
Broooo this is a throwback for me. I used to play meat all the time against my brothers in Armageddon on splitscreen.
I love this series so much, please keep going until every character is covered!!
I doubt Meat will ever be brought back which is sad because like. What a perfect character for this game on appearance alone. But I genuinely wonder what a “modern” Meat would look like? How would they change him and what would he do in the game’s story if anything? Just fun to think about
Meat was that character that everyone talked about but you thought it was just a lie, until you searched it
I love his catch phrases.
"Let's put some MEAT in your bone!" and, of course, "It's-a me, tea!"
The one thing I loved about MK Armeggedon was the ability to create a custom looking and named character with 2 different fighting styles, that could be used online. I don't know if they brought it back for MKX or MK11, but that would be cool if they did.
I always thought Meat and Drahmin were brothers when I was a kid, i just thought their bodies looked similar
Haven't played MK in years but clicked this when I got it in reccomended. Video was really easy to follow without any confusing jargon. Deffo subbing
I was terrified as a kid when I unlocked him in conquest
its ok to be afraid of greatness my friend
@@ohioanguy6440
I'm still disappointed that he's not a skin in mk11 like seriously they can make him a skin for every character
Great indepth stuff as always! it's nice to see some of the obscure/weird characters get the spotlight
I have never seen a video of yours before, but I must say I hope you teach the character in all of them. I will never play this game or character but I still really appreciated the ability to learn his moves and when or why to use them. Well done! Thanks.
These are my favorite videos you do! Keep em coming. Very excited to see a Shinnok one or one of a character who appears in every game like Raiden or Sub-Zero just to see all the tech throughout the years
An actually good character guide that reasonably explains a character how to play them and combo routes truly impressive
I'm pretty sure Meat was in Deadly Alliance wasn't he? You should do Mokap sometime if you havent yet. I dunno why but he amuses me-
Yesss he was. But if I remember right, he didn't have a weapon back then, neither fatalities. Also, he was a secret character.
Dammit Ketchup, now i am really anxious for mah man Fujin!
Keep doing these videos! They are REALLY interesting and fantastics!
I dont even play MK but love these competitive history vids. Keep em coming :)
one of fav characters to play from Armageddon
Was playing mk11 earlier and saw the ketchup and mustard tower up. Immediately reminded me of this channel
Yo, I cant believe Mortal Kombat predicted a smaller Attack on Titan titan
I love the silence over his unlock picture for a second and a half. I fucking lost it for some reason
I always thought mks setting was kind of surreal especially in the older games. demigods fighting one another in landscapes that look like fever dreams
Still surprised that Meat made it into Armageddon but Tremor didn’t
How do you do those aerial infinites? I've attempted to do them a couple times, even looked up a few videos and answers from forums, but to no avail. Is there a trick to doing it?
My MK Meta for Armageddon covers how to do it :)
@@PNDKM Ok, I watched the video and I think I have a better understanding of how it works now. Your help was greatly appreciated! Many thanks and keep making more awesome content.
Not many knew about him. Thank you for making this clip 👍👍👍
I will never forget kid me unlocking this guy and screaming in horror
It’s nice to know Meat covers his meat
If there is ever a collection of all the Pre-NRS MK games, I’m gonna go pro with Meat
Meat deserves a comeback
0:04 when you've been hit by and/or struck by a smooth criminal
I loved this game and loved this character. He was so solid.
That grab doing 20% damage and being able to almost infinite in the corner had me rolling.
most educational mortal combat video ive ever watched like I'm not lying
check out my other episodes if you liked this one :D
Imagine Meat as a playable character in MK11 with an instant limb healing artifact gear.
Moves:
meat ball
Rib bone stab
Head cannon
Flesh grab
Flesh summon
Flesh port
Torn swinging arm
Eye gusher ground bomb
Gear : butcher knife
Chest amulet
Face mask
During the events of Shao Khan reign meat formally = ? was a human of extraordinary power that was a experiment of vase amounts of energy. During my ritual sacrifice. I stole the flesh amulet from the dark priest and killed them. Wondering earthrelm and brought into the timeline merger by Kronika. I seek to know why i was sacrificed for a reason. This amulet is keeping me still alive.
Dude I knew I wasn't crazy when I thought there was a skinless guy in a mk or some sorta mk clone. So glad I found this video
9:21 I don't remember Sindel being that THICC 💀
I love how they introduce characters like Meat into Mortal Kombat games. What started as a way for developers to shortcut their processes ends up becoming an incredibly unique idea that opens up more ideas. I think that's what makes Mortal Kombat's universe so compelling.
You can't just say no pun intended when the pun is intended. That's illegal.
Mk12 should just pull an Armageddon and put every single character they have
Thanks for the tip. I'll check him out!
I can't help but think most of these written-off-by-NRS characters would be outright amazing in a game structure like MK11. In a game all about Krushing Blows and customizing a fighting kit, a character who literally has no skin and spends all match trying to get in close and GRAB you would be a massive changeup since even with characters like Sheeva and Rambo, we don't have a true grapple focused character. All input grabs are blockable unless it's the traditional grab, so giving Meat the ability to port in close and perform unblockable grabs at different heights would be substantial.
Vote for Meat in Kombat Pack 2
I really hope Meat gets added as a kameo fighter in MK1 I would have him as my kameo main 100% lmao.
Great video. I really like obscure characters.
Mortal kombat 12 needs to bring back the original characters I miss playing as mavado
If you ever wanted to play as a fallout ghoul in a fighting game
I wish that when scorpion uses his flamethrower fatality on meat, he just turns into a steak dinner
Wow I’ve literally never heard of meat. Cool seeing a new character after all these years
Meat was so mean back in the day. Plus the one liners you could use were damn near limitless.
Brooooo this was my long lost memory
I remember playing armageddon as a kid (I was trash at fighting games) and never choosing meat because even as a child the concept of someone scaping around on their flesh just made me cringe lol
