@@jameeljames1092 yup, you know it man. I played some mkx it was alright, good fun, but it didn't feel the same way without dash blocking. Even tho the run mechanic was from the original games, mk9 still felt like THE game to me. Legit pressure and mindgames, not just 50/50 guessing all day. And then mk11 came out, i just watched a couple of videos, saw the breakaway bullshit and didn't even bother. I hope we get a remake of mk9 (there's been some rumors about that) or a new mk game in the same style.
I love how smoke wasn't even intended to be played like this, but xsmokex was just absolutely fearless with the character, turned him into a pressure machine. Getting in the face of johnny cages and kabals? No problem! Just pure aggression. Love it!
@@kaykier no he didn’t lol. Total misinformation. Waffles would do d1~sb, he did not ever abuse standing 2 as I did and it’s auto correcting with micro dash.
that quan chi is no joke, he wiped out half the canadian team single handedly. its amazing how he could barely do anything vs xsmoke, who is on the same level as reo's kabal.
these smoke resets are op first one is 70% and second one even more thats only from 2 bars , people bitchin about Quan who does 45% of 3 bars if blocked and one of the slowest characters with worst wake up in the game lol
for everyone bitching about the reset, yah its a fucked up thing in the game.. BUT that being said, it's not even closest to the most fucked up thing in the game. There are a ton of bs glitches and smoke doesnt have the only unblockable reset. Jax has one, Cyrax has one that is 100% reliable also he has non breakable ones that lead to like 60%. As a smoke player myself i'm not gonna down play smoke not being good cuz he is good, but his reset is far from easy to consistently hit. the spot for the f4 changes each ammount of hits in the combo because of gravity scaling. also it depends where on the map you are because the corner is another variable in it. And you have to look at the risk reward compared to other resets in the game that are guaranteed with practice. Smoke buries himself by wasting a bar of meter if he misses it. It's a complete gamble most of the time. if you miss it you lost a bar of meter and might not have breaker for when u get caught. If you hit it, if they werent completely empty on meter when u started the combo they have 1 bar built from the first combo before the reset so chances are they have breaker anyway.
But Jax has to be close and it's not like super hard, and Cyrax is always reliable with some training, but smoke's reset. Gotta tell you timing is the key, and you have to watch where the smoke cloud it's gonna land and when. For me it's the most difficult. I'm a smoke player by the way.
Bryan A. Long-Khoy Laiza has nothing to do with the smokebomb it's all dependant on the f4 and where you hit it at / with how much gravity scaling (number or hits) in the combo. the smokebomb is gonna cancel the same time no matter what with f4 link.
I said smoke cloud that's the enhanced for doing the reset. And yeah absolutely it does depend on the roller coaster kick, but also on the smoke cloud. Less or more delay can fuck the reset up.
Yah it does a lot of damage, but it's very hard to pull it off. The timing on the f4 has to be perfect and the timing is different for all types of set ups.
Tiers change a lot as people begin to learn how to play previously underestimated chars.I dont believe in the tier system. 16 bit owned with Kano (who is considered the lowest of low tiers).
i actually think he's really hard to use. the timing for his smoke bomb when an opponent in in air is very tight plus punishable teleport and no damaging projectile. i suck with him but any character can be good if uses right
I simply cant believe he was just 15 during this, god damn flawless Smoke play
Cuz he playing like a bitch
After 6 years I’m still amazed on how good mk9 was
Still the best mk game
@@grannywalter without a doubt it is

@@grannywalter an mk9 remake with more characters (from armageddon) would be perfect
@@grannywalterlol mk1 has the same goated movement now.
Best smoke I've ever seen.
without a doubt, THE BEST
Glass sword is an amazing smoke player as well. If you saw the tom Brady team vs pig of the hut team glass sword runs through a ton of pigs team.

Wafflez originated this type of gameplay in tournaments. xSmokex was just simply a better Smoke player.
@@kaykier no he didn’t lol. Total misinformation. Waffles would do d1~sb, he did not ever abuse standing 2 as I did and it’s auto correcting with micro dash.
@@Mk_xsmokex 5 months late asf, but nevertheless, thanks for the correction.
While I'm a huge Quan fan, that smoke totally bodied him
🤓
"this is it! he's not dropping that shit." 5:02 I love it
one of the best matches i have seen.
fantastic players! i cant believe xSmoke is 15? amazing.
that quan chi is no joke, he wiped out half the canadian team single handedly. its amazing how he could barely do anything vs xsmoke, who is on the same level as reo's kabal.
Some great wiffs and punishes from that Smoke. AMAZING!
I hope Smoke and Noob return in 11. Please, please.
Unfortuanely :(
Tutsiki Yançek we got noob at least and smoke lives on as a consumable and also some of his move ish is also in Shang Tsung and scorpion
no
"He isn't dropping that shit."

my boi is back
I was 3 11 yrs ago damn and I played mk9
Damn. I was hoping to see a godlike Quan Chi. That would be pretty damn interesting and original

It cancels into ex smoke bomb the same time bro. Only thing that matters is the f4
Yo its tournament calm down
Yah it does a lot of damage, but it's very hard to pull it off. The timing on the f4 has to be perfect and the timing is different for all types of set ups.
smoke,smoke,smoke,smoke,smoke ,smoke,smoke
He said, He'll inform me when he does.
I can't believe how young xsmokex is
lol loved how they called smokes ex smoke bomb a reseat as if there’s anything you could do about it haha
Man both of these players are fucking God like supe is a fucking monster when he played playpal and smoke is just a fucking beast
Quan Chi's enhanced portal is bullshit
Excellent Quan Chi
Is that reset patchd or something?
me encanta jugar Personajes extraño y poco comunes , en todos los juegos, y siento respeto por los que tmb les gustan :) . Arriba Quan chi Player
Tiers change a lot as people begin to learn how to play previously underestimated chars.I dont believe in the tier system. 16 bit owned with Kano (who is considered the lowest of low tiers).
5:27 "OULAY" , btw add me on PS3 i show you a better smoke .
Lmao
where i can find this to watch full?
Where is xsmokex now? Does he got a TH-cam, twitter or twitch?
I’m around but I don’t post or play a ton anymore. I was doing some early mk1 content with smoke but the games just aren’t good anymore in my opinion.
@@Mk_xsmokex oh shit he responded! Yeah personally as a kid I loved mk9 more. 11 is slow. 10 is fun but MK1 is dog shit
Quan is so free in this matchup :(
still fun to watch, I know your pain insup :P
Was he against a 10 year old playing Quan chi? Most of the spamming community are kids
its literally the other way around , xsmokex was 15 years old at this time.
idk why everyone hates his primary custome its cool i like the hair and everything
It's still cool but it the secondary costume looks more like a primary costume. It looks more like a ninja
yes
I miss smoke
Does the reset at 0:26 still work or was it banned?
when is he playing again? xsmokex?
He need to go to MLG Dallas
xSmokex good job
still works...not banned at all
Is he better than Wafflez though?
Yes.
oh sounds good.
this smoke is godlike
how the fuck can smoke be a low tier character?
cuz Boon is outta his fucking mind thats why
Smoke is my favorite ninja!
Wow so pro
Holy Smoke ! :D
Nah their pro skillz just make it look broken but its balanced.
very good smoke very skilled against a quan chi spammer
Da hr...quan chi e o maior
BEST SMOKE EVER!!!!
BEST SMOKE EVER IS TONY-T
Wafflez is great no doubt.. But dan is the smoke of America
I had a better Quan Chi was ranked 19 in mK 9 but I didn’t play that much my winning percentage was like 80
good match - cheap reset vs cheap rune trap
I'm a fan xsmokex
no
Smoke monster
Smoke wins!
aaaaand Im deaf
Best smoock ever
smoke is godlike, way better than smith
insuperable is a better player than smokex. hes just unlucky
jia oliveira you're a idiot,smoke is low tier character.
Smoke is not low tier. Where are you getting you tier list from?
I see better
I saw better
Smoke is so fucking cheap, Jesus Christ.
You say that cause you have lost so many times xD
How? Lol you must really suck
i actually think he's really hard to use. the timing for his smoke bomb when an opponent in in air is very tight plus punishable teleport and no damaging projectile. i suck with him but any character can be good if uses right
