You will definitely face many Sub-Zero players in online MK11 matches and in your locales. Be prepared for this thanks to this excellent guide by Conflictus, an esports professional representing Rize Gaming. This guy is a Sub-Zero loyalist who has some notable success on the pro scene. The video offers a pretty deep dive into the topic, so it would be wise to return to it, revive the info, and get something new to the practice.
The last guide to fight against Jax was really helpful as is this, Sub-Zero can be a real pain in the butt and I hate to always keep guessing, my pea brain can't handle the pressure
Sub-Zero can unfortunately be one of those characters which is just guessing and luck of the draw, hopefully the video I made prevents that from being the case and making it easier for you to deal with him!
My only problem fighting against subzero is ,this thing every subzero player uses,which is overhead slide it's very hard to block,they just do the overhead u blocked,but the slide comes in so fast it's hard to block your feet,scorpion can deal with his ice projectiles easily
I think that its important to tell about some KL Sub gimmicks. For example, b3 > backdash> b32. A lot of people can be caught with that, because they just d1 after b3. Actually its reactable, but you need to be really careful. So if you are not ready, just dont d1, do it on read sometimes if you cant react. Another thing is d1 backdash, it works more times than it should. Usually because of a high ping. Sub doesnt have any d1 special, so you can always poke him immediately, or do something like Scorps f3, or a fast mid. Subs d1 is strange, it is the only d1 that has 0 or even -1 cancel advantage on block, usually its like 6 or 7. So be ready and dont let the sub do d1 backdash. D4 into backdash into b1 is another stupid thing, even though d4 is -9, most your attacks wont catch his backdash, only if your forward dash to him. But its dangerous, because he can just do d4 slide. So even here you have to guess. But you can, for example, duck after his d4 (after you understand he didnt cancel it into a slide) as a hard read to punish the b1. Also dont forget that f2 is actually -3 on hit, so it can be useful to mash when you understand that you didnt react to f2, which is impossible online, of course, because sometimes subs just do f2 without anything
I know that this game is finished but there’s always something I wished were changed. Sub Zero might be the exception for me though, someone suggested his cold shoulder should’ve be an armor breaker as well and I agree. Still I’ll have to that tip about keeping track of his legs in mind.
Should’ve gone over more tech about his creeping ice move. Like how on some of his strings you can jump out of it, or with certain characters like fujin and scorpion you can do a move in between the amplify fujin can do his sweep and scorpion can do his stand 4
It has been YEARS since the game came out, ans I still can't do shit against Subzero. Cetrion, Liu, Joker, Fujin... Ye they're all annoying but they're not invincible. But fuckin Subzero? My half brainded 12yo cousin could easily get on above DemiGod on his very first KL.
wonderful guide conflictus , Thank U dash fight for amazing video , BTW conflictus subzero worst match up is the same as sikander555 . Air gas kabal , jaqi , jade and kung lao 😩
Totally agree. "If they don't hit confirm into ice ball you can punish them" . Poor Subzero really missed out a lot in this game. I was just waiting for "If you duck his throws you can actually punish him". No knock against Conflictus. That's literally Subzero.

"How to play against Sub Zero?"
Me - Counter pick Sub Zero with Sub Zero. That's the only way!
so proud of you conflictus !
@@DarthConflictus Connor, you’re the best! Thanks for the guide!

I just quit when someone picks Sub online. So tired of the spam. Plus it feels like every hit gives him a krushing blow.
Cause he literally gets it 😃
Same here.
I'm learning the fundamentals of mk thanks to this channel. keep this up dashfight 🙏
Thank you Connor, very cool 👍

Its actually not hard to block that, just do some practice in the training mode
Always block low after f2, the follow up string looks like an overhead but its not
I find it hard as well, it's tricky to get one's brain and fingers to block high then block low quickly.

Thank you for the comment and tip :)
@@DashFight can you do Rambo against sub Zero or all characters it's annoying playing against Rambo put him against other hard characters
This was a lit guide video 💪💪🔥
I used to love subzero in previous titles but now he's my number one least favorite character and I refuse to use him or fight him online.
This is wild because I was just going to to make one of these 😂

I agree on his Cold Shoulder on being an armour breaker, sacrifice his mobility for it, sounds good and hope my tip works out for you 😎
You're kidding? This clown doesn't need any buffs. He is already brain-dead
Big help!
Thank you!

Was this a "How to play sub-zero" or How to play against? Seemed more like the former than the latter
Because there's no way you can really play against him, except for being WAY more experienced and skilled than a Subzero player.
wonderful guide conflictus , Thank U dash fight for amazing video , BTW conflictus subzero worst match up is the same as sikander555 .
Air gas kabal , jaqi , jade and kung lao 😩
Very good still hard to master online but great info.
Do we by chance have an upcoming guide for kountering Kabal?
Yeah, in couple of weeks
@@DashFight Sweet deal 👌
I hate subzero players so much all of them just spam slide I rarely see them use combos
Let’s go
👀💪
Played like 50 games against a good sub last night. He destroyed my liu and I won like 1 match. Im trash but still dude😭
Sub zero is pretty annoying to fight against
Bro how many of you are there
Nah this one was mid. A lot of common sense advice here. And subzero isn’t stuck in the corner. He can get out with the THREAT of slide alone.
L
Well, sub in the corner is the best place to put him.
Totally agree. "If they don't hit confirm into ice ball you can punish them" . Poor Subzero really missed out a lot in this game. I was just waiting for "If you duck his throws you can actually punish him".
No knock against Conflictus. That's literally Subzero.
@@tyry_sa lol exactly
He gets out with d4 into slide
you pray 🙏
Cetrion 😭😭😭
Coming very soon ;)
worst tips ever
