Bro he had said that Cassie was the only one who could special cancel a special move into another one 6 months later in mk1 we learn Jonny cage can now do it isn’t it ironic
I love Enchantress for exactly the reasons you said! She's by no means a top-tier character but she's just so packed with utility moves from the hexes to her parry/mid mixup to the enhanced combo strings freezing, to the invulnerability, to being able to corner combo you at midscreen through use of her trait. Just so many *options* in one character
Except the fact that she gets zoned and spaced out by like half the cast lol! She is a nightmare to use at high level cause this game is so centered around space control tools and projectiles. I always found it weird that a witch like enchantress has no full screen presence, like she can put fear into the spectre but can't throw a projectile???
I agree man. I always liked the enchantress. Too bad they didn't have a skin of her from the suicide squad movie I liked her ancient ethereal or otherworldly look on there but the game did her justice as expected showing her gr8 powers & abilities.
2:05 in Injustice 2 Starfire can cancel her special moves into trait 4:34 Actually this move does have an ex-version. It's faster and has armor 7:55 There is another way to learn. Each curse looks different on the opponent's head, so you don't have to look at the name all the time
@@TrueUnderDawgGaming i know this is a year old comment, but the reason the curses don't look like english words is because they aren't, they're norse futhark runes
8:10 The names of the curses are actually Nordic runes. Kinda. The pronunciation and spelling is weird since they used an entirely different alphabet with some of it being lost
Cassie's "The American Way" is a High with a lot of Start-Up. The opponent can just neutral duck and punish before Cassie cancels into another special.
The first attack is kind of obvious that it can be special cancelled. The recovery frames are lower than the cancel. I knew what it's purpose was after seeing the move/frame data for the first time. There's actually a lot of moves that act this way in mk, just look at the frames
The orb around Enchantress' curse orb is different per rune name (curse), it can be easier to learn the appearance of the orb rather than the name, also so you dont have to look away.
Plus you can back dash right before she pushes her arm out and this will allow you to avoid the move, so not entirely as broken or confusing as he claims to be
I was legitimately expecting "American way" to be a way to get a special fatality, lol. Fascinating move, but now I am disappointed it isn't tied to a unique way to finish the fight
If they bring back the salute maybe they can make it like sagats Kara chancels when it gives u forward momentum and can be cancelled on whiff it could open up new combo options by giving u more range of u have good execution
It's fun coming back to this video after the release of MK1 with Johnny Cage's gimmick being the ability to cancel special moves into other special moves
Honestly even as an enchantress main the only one I remember is fehu and ehwaz 😂 there’s also a broken ability she has “hypnotic spell” the rage quits I’ve gotten online is uncountable at this point
Making me go back and play mortal kombat X like once a month since finding you. Love you bro. Can you make a video on injustice 2 hellboy? Not sure what you would exactly choose to talk about but i figured id drop it in the comments, Also cassie actually is pretty cool, just wish she didnt have a johnny/sonya mix even though it makes sense lol
Well it’s not. No comp players really use it because it still has an armor gap and some characters can just yolo through it and be good (Goro comes to mind). It’s a corner tool to be flashy and have more damage. That’s really it. Also even if it’s still special cancelable, Cassie can’t really use anything to keep herself safe and would still have to deal with your 50/50 then
Guess I’ll comment on Cassie’s “The American Way”. My guess is a joke move like Luigi’s down taunt in smash bros. Killing with this military slap will guarantee being in a fighting game compilation.
I guess if you backdash (or forward dash idk tbh) at the right time when Enchantress hexes you, you can avoid the hex cuz the invincible frames on the dash will save you
If i had to guess, it's...some kind of counter-attack? Like, if you nail her while she's doing that, she'll pull some kind of reversal. The fact it does anything with the slap is wholly incidental.
Damn, I legit thought that move actually did absolutely nothing, because I could never for the life of me ever figure out wtf it did. Wouldn't have been surprised if that was the answer lmao.
Liu Kang in MKX can special cancel out of his Windmill (e.g. FBF4 into BF3 to restand, into enhanced DB2 on block, or into enhanced BF1 to be plus, but it's a high). And in the same variation (Flame Fist), his flame fist buff cancels very fast. So fast in fact that you can combo a windmill into another windmill in the corner. You can also special cancel out of Freddy Krueger's nightmare stance in MK9, but it's not very fast.
Doesn't Kotal Kahn have a move in MKX where he stabs his own hand and he loses like 20% of his own health bar. What is the point of that move? It just makes you lose health.
I played Freddy a bit in mk9 and this slow Falling move wasnt thaat Bad, bc He was a Zonen after all and the move gave him another Option to his zoning game. And if it Hits...you could get quite good damage of it. I didnt use it all the time, but to mixes his zone game up when the opponent was half screnn or so it was a nice thing for inbetween. And as He mentioned in his Video. After certain knock downs it was a nice place Holder or a anti wake up with any shit like wake up teleport any Kind like that
Ok but the Pentacle hex is so freakin slow on startup that you will never be able to use it against most characters cause of projectiles or teleports. Super girl can literally reaction counter her for a full combo with her teleport and starfires trait will destroy her as well.
I think the only character that can cancel special moves into special moves is mkx Sub-Zero, cryomancer variation I guess, after his command grab he can cancel into other specials.
While I've followed the stories of the characters and events of MKX and MK11, I've yet to play them. I'm still trying to catch up Xbox 360 games, that's how far behind the times I am. Adulting is a very busy lifestyle. But anyway, it is 1:33 into the video and I'm gonna guess that it's some sort of auto parry maneuver. Like MK9 (which I own and have played lol) Johnny Cage's X-Ray, but much less damaging and a lot less cinematic. Now to press play, and find out...
I think that The American Way is a massive buff to the next flip kick. That sounds like something NRS would do! :D EDIT: BRUH WTF :VVVVVVV WHY??? Also, yeah I guess you are a psychic.
iirc there were special moves that cancels into special moves in nrs games like sonya’s stance from mk9 and someone from injustice or did i get it wrong
You forgot to mention that each curse has different effect on the target's head. Sure they are all pink so it can still be hard to decipher but it's there
Assuming mk12 doesn't have the f u c k i n g stance switch again, American Way could work as a taunt similar to Sakura's fingerpoke in some of the SF games
Fine I'll play your games, I assume cassies slap's gotta be a re-stand or something like that bc its such a non damage move that its gotta have utility right?
The Cassie move might be a buff of sorts. I don't think I saw it heal. Maybe its a reflector? I was totally wrong but I actually like this version better, it seems pretty fun to use. I didn't watch much of MKX as a competitive game, was Cassie or this move used in competitive play?

That s*it.
Anyone can tell me names of 1 and 2 characters on the intro?
to be fair, I thought that the slap of cassie was a re-stand... until I saw -4 on hit
It also doesn't restand...

@@TrueUnderDawgGaminglol
@@TrueUnderDawgGaming i know this is a year old comment, but the reason the curses don't look like english words is because they aren't, they're norse futhark runes
I guess Cassie from MK11 also can cancel her special move into the Fatal Blow, which nobody else can
Yeah I made a whole video on that. Wild that she has that option 0_0
@@TrueUnderDawgGamingwhere’s the link?
8:10 The names of the curses are actually Nordic runes. Kinda. The pronunciation and spelling is weird since they used an entirely different alphabet with some of it being lost
Lots of things in MK 11 can be confusing since people play the most mind-games in that.
Guess-Kombat 11
“Then you know of the bitch slap….”
*Proceeds to whack Kotal like he does Jade*
I honestly thought The American Way was only there for that one Brutality. Good to see it have some application.
Cassie's "The American Way" is a High with a lot of Start-Up. The opponent can just neutral duck and punish before Cassie cancels into another special.
I would actually love if guess the confusing move became a small series
Keep up the good work! :) These videos have been keeping my fg spirit alive!
I am surprised that all the moves that invert your controls didn't at least get honourable mentions. like Jason's "Pursuit" move, for example.
The first attack is kind of obvious that it can be special cancelled. The recovery frames are lower than the cancel. I knew what it's purpose was after seeing the move/frame data for the first time. There's actually a lot of moves that act this way in mk, just look at the frames
Honestly thought the American ways only application was the brutality.
But also always hated the salute with the wrong hand.
I just realized that they gave a keep away character a teleport. I wonder who thought that would be a good idea.
Harley quin injustice1 does have a special slide that cancels into another special move
The orb around Enchantress' curse orb is different per rune name (curse), it can be easier to learn the appearance of the orb rather than the name, also so you dont have to look away.

It does have a Brutality if you unlock it, but that's pretty much it.
It's for that juicy brutality and the mind games with that move is seriously open because Cassie's got so many other specials in that variation
You can actually avoid Enchantress curses if you back dash!
The slap was the start of the OshTek KK in a Wheelchair's journey
Count this as my third time watching your videos and subbed
What's so funny is that Kotal does know the bitch slap
His Forward 1 in MK11 is a vicious bitch slap
Thanks underdawg for everything that you do
If they bring back the salute maybe they can make it like sagats Kara chancels when it gives u forward momentum and can be cancelled on whiff it could open up new combo options by giving u more range of u have good execution
I love that the first one is just a REKA and the confusion is palpable
Cassies move is for taunting. Lol
It's fun coming back to this video after the release of MK1 with Johnny Cage's gimmick being the ability to cancel special moves into other special moves
Doomsday QCF+2. On launch day, this move was personally responsible for, at least, 15% of store returns.
Honestly even as an enchantress main the only one I remember is fehu and ehwaz 😂 there’s also a broken ability she has “hypnotic spell” the rage quits I’ve gotten online is uncountable at this point

Brutality
If you ko someone with that slap you're a God. The humiliation makes people want to quit
Damn I thought Cassie chest and stomach was showing in her default costume 🤣
That's crazy, I knew the slap was a special cancel, but I thought you use it for combos or something, I didn't know it's best use is block shenanigans
Well it’s not. No comp players really use it because it still has an armor gap and some characters can just yolo through it and be good (Goro comes to mind).

Enhanced Sweet Dreams had armor for some reason. This move was amazing when Freddy was cornered.
Deep Sleep
Creating the ultimate mk character :>>>
Subzero has a special move that cancels into other special moves…
The command grab
IM HERE WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO YEAH
"Nobody in Mk9 could zone like Freddy"
Nood Saibot has entered the chat
Yeaaaa 😂😂😂😂
Yeaaaa 😂😂😂😂
@@pap313_ Yeaaaa 😂😂😂😂
Sweet dream does have an ex version and it's extremely good because you have armor
Favorite mktuber drops a vid as I’m looking for one to watch as I eat 🥹❤️
I guess if you backdash (or forward dash idk tbh) at the right time when Enchantress hexes you, you can avoid the hex cuz the invincible frames on the dash will save you
Okay, you gave me ten seconds
I think it's some sort of Taunt
If i had to guess, it's...some kind of counter-attack? Like, if you nail her while she's doing that, she'll pull some kind of reversal. The fact it does anything with the slap is wholly incidental.
Today is a good day for the great underdawg has graced us with another mk video
Damn, I legit thought that move actually did absolutely nothing, because I could never for the life of me ever figure out wtf it did. Wouldn't have been surprised if that was the answer lmao.
Improvement for American Way: combos into 20 bitch slaps that total for 5%
You can possibly combo into The American Way in the corner or during a corner combo.
Liu Kang in MKX can special cancel out of his Windmill (e.g. FBF4 into BF3 to restand, into enhanced DB2 on block, or into enhanced BF1 to be plus, but it's a high). And in the same variation (Flame Fist), his flame fist buff cancels very fast. So fast in fact that you can combo a windmill into another windmill in the corner.
You can also special cancel out of Freddy Krueger's nightmare stance in MK9, but it's not very fast.
Ha, that intro is pretty much Kotal Khan in MK11 anyway.
Doesn't Kotal Kahn have a move in MKX where he stabs his own hand and he loses like 20% of his own health bar. What is the point of that move? It just makes you lose health.
I'm pretty sure it gives you a damage buff
It gives you a big damage buff and you get health back after its over in certain variations
Scorpion sin blade is a special move you can special cancel into a teleport in MK 11. I have a video of it on my channel
Cassie:hmmmm I wonder what should
I call this move?
It should just be a simple slap call it the American way break
Time.😂
Intro was absolutely hilarious
I'm guessing that it buffs one of her attacks.
Edit-Man caught me lacking.
I thought the slap was some sort of demoralizing brutality
I think Liu Kang's windmill punches are special cancelable
You can cancel cassie's upwards kick amp into the backwards kick if only the last hit of the amp upward kick hits the oponent.
Only thing the bitch slap is useful for is for a tiny bit of percent after f4 cause you can cancel it into flipkick
Cassie's attack was a straight up bitch slap...its to disrespect the opponent😂😂
Kotal did not know of the bitch slap
I have no clue but I just went and played her for the first time and died of laughter 😊😂
I played Freddy a bit in mk9 and this slow Falling move wasnt thaat Bad, bc He was a Zonen after all and the move gave him another Option to his zoning game. And if it Hits...you could get quite good damage of it. I didnt use it all the time, but to mixes his zone game up when the opponent was half screnn or so it was a nice thing for inbetween. And as He mentioned in his Video. After certain knock downs it was a nice place Holder or a anti wake up with any shit like wake up teleport any Kind like that
In mkx you can cancell two specials in to another specials.
Liu Kang with his fire hands buff has that property too, and even not meter burned
2:09 flame fist liu kang can cancel chain punches into a special
2:05 feel like it’s better as a meme tool on the fatality screen-
Oh. I thought you're going to mention Sugar Punch's criticism of NRS games' animations.
I love the American way because to me it'd a humiliation move as I finished a match to fatality via a that move and it had me rolling
i figured the cassie slap was just a way to flex on someone
Ok but the Pentacle hex is so freakin slow on startup that you will never be able to use it against most characters cause of projectiles or teleports. Super girl can literally reaction counter her for a full combo with her teleport and starfires trait will destroy her as well.
2:06 cassie cage in mk11 how could u not think of that
I think the only character that can cancel special moves into special moves is mkx Sub-Zero, cryomancer variation I guess, after his command grab he can cancel into other specials.
imagine finishing ur fight with that move hhhhh so disrespectful
The bitch slap😂
Taunting move for cassie
Guessing Cassie's move is just a taunt that can do damage like Luigi in Smash
While I've followed the stories of the characters and events of MKX and MK11, I've yet to play them. I'm still trying to catch up Xbox 360 games, that's how far behind the times I am. Adulting is a very busy lifestyle.
But anyway, it is 1:33 into the video and I'm gonna guess that it's some sort of auto parry maneuver. Like MK9 (which I own and have played lol) Johnny Cage's X-Ray, but much less damaging and a lot less cinematic.
Now to press play, and find out...
Just figured out how to corner combo the bitch slap
Enchantress is using nordic runes in her move. Huh neat.
I think that The American Way is a massive buff to the next flip kick. That sounds like something NRS would do! :D
EDIT: BRUH WTF :VVVVVVV WHY??? Also, yeah I guess you are a psychic.

Swag and to troll your opponent
I can name and describe over 3000 yugioh cards by the artwork alone so remembering 4 curses is ezpz

It's a joke move, basically a taunt. Something you only use to mess with your opponent.
B@#$! Slap probably suppose to be one of those disrespectfull confusing moves:)
