      If you had your partner as sub zero and did noobs block disabler you could do an unblockable combo repeatedly until the effects wore off.
      The move I’m talking about, is the one sub zero does around 1:20 the pimp slap into the dagger then repeat, your Opponent couldn’t do anything but stand there.

    I hope they add a proper Tag Assist for MK1 post launch. It seems like the perfect match given the kameo system and how the story mode showed that they could work in the kameo system with base roster characters, with things like the generic fatal blow moves they used in story mode fatal blows for characters that aren’t kameos in the normal game. A system where you could tag in and out while using your buddy’s cameo when it’s your turn could be a fun dynamic.

    I have so many childhood memories of playing this mode with my cousins and friends. Me and this one cousin of mine I remember would always play with the exact same team of Kung Lao (Me) and Sub-Zero (Cousin). He taught me everything I know about Mortal Kombat. This mode is how I really learned to play MK. Doing a 4 player tag match against our other 2 cousins was also a blast. So many good memories. Learning team attacks and stuff like that was so incredibly fun. Even just doing an arcade tag ladder by yourself can be a lot more fun than doing a single character ladder. If you get bored of playing as one character, you can simply tag out and keep playing. The mode is broken, however, there is nothing wrong with that if you just playing casually with friends or playing against AI opponents. I really hope that they bring tag mode back in MK12.

    I've always used Tag mode for ladders with fighters that I generally wasn't as good with.
    In Tag Ladders, the first fighter you choose is the one that gets the Ending once you beat Shao Kahn, so if you wanted the Ladder ending for a fighter you weren't good with, just pick them first and follow them with a fighter you're great with, and you'll have a much easier time.

    It's a shame that the 'Kameo Assist' was picked over a 'Fully Functional Traditional Tag Team Game Mode' in Mortal Kombat 1[2023].

    One of my favorite combo with Ermac and Rain in mk9:
    "Starting with Rain, enemy in corner"
    B2, 1+2/ B2, 1+2/ Tag/3, 1/ DB 1/ FDash/ B1, 1, F2/FDash/ B2, B1/X-ray
    Dang... Love tags combo. Want in mk11 :/

    Really good that you brought this topic up.
    I really would like to see a tag or team mode. I remember 'Street Fighter EX+Alpha' had this mode where we selected 5 characters in put them an order and the opponent (CPU or player) would do the same. A new character came up as soon as the previous one died.
    It used to be so fun to create such teams.
    In these games, one can only do a 1v1, and it gets boring

    Mk9 was the best because it had fun modes like this that the new games are just missing. Also the challenge tower was great

    Tag was literally the only reason me and my friends played MK9 in highschool. We used to laugh and purposely sacrificed a friend to eat an X-Ray. 10 and 11 would have definitely benefitted from it.

    You say it's forgettable because you obviously never played side by side with someone. Me and my brother were both very good at MK9 and played equally good players online about 10 years ago. It is some of the greatest fun I had playing video games. This video made me miss 2v2.

    I loved tag battle. I played it recently with my friend and had a great time. I hope they bring it back one day because it's really fun.
    I didn't have a great time with story mode. Seriously those 1 v 2 battles kicked my a*s back in the day.

    i miss tag mode, i used to play it the most, i was playing me my brother and two of my cousins, on pc, me and my brother on the keyboard, one on numpad other is wasd, and the other two a controllers,, and now in mk11 cant even play with my brother in the same keyboard, they killed everything

  • @mikaelamonsterland
    @mikaelamonsterland ปีที่แล้ว +2

    i think it's really sad this mode didn't come back for mk11 even though they actually have tag fights where you play as two characters or fight against teams of two characters in some of the game's towers

  • @brandonkennedy4160
    @brandonkennedy4160 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    For me, the ultimate insult is how they basically made MK11 be able to do tag matches, then locked it to specific character pairs in Towers of Time and a couple Aftermath story fights. Literally saying, “We can give you what you want…we just don’t want to.”

    Tag Mode was my favorite thing I'm MK9.
    and it makes me sad that this feature has never returned in the later games.
    especially sense MK11 came out around DBZ Fighters and MvC Infinite.
    and sense MK11 was centered around tournament play.

  • @williamcalhoun883
    @williamcalhoun883 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    I hope they find a way to bring tag into MK11. From what I understand, they can't due to technical issues with the game. They can only get three characters max, which is why shang can't morph in the tower tags, but I wonder if they released very simple stages, with no interactables and very minimal background animations if they could scrounge up enough memory for it. Or maybe they could have some sort of 2 v 1 type of mode, where one player gets the tag options, and the other player gets a powered up version of the character they pick, with more combo options and what not. That would be kinda sick. Anyway, thx for coming to my ted talk.
