The game has just been out, it amazes me how people jump to conclusions when not even a fraction of possibilities have been discovered with the character/kameo combinations. As always NRS players are lazy to figure stuff on their own and would rather copy someone else, which creates a bandwagon of players chanting for an overly used character to get nerfed
Low saw is godlike. it recovers instantly. its plus. used for pseudo unblockable setups. plus you can technically combo off forward grab if you set up low saw. but the timing is soo tight.
@@prsuave420 plus in the corner you can just throw out low saw if they block they at disadvantage and if they get hit you can combo with 121. no need to hit confirm it literally covers both options.
I main Lao, and I think he pairs better with Stryker. Strikers overhead is +6 which jails into Laos mid launcher, which if blocked you can make yourself safe with strykers grenades. Or you can just do one hit, cancel into his up dive kick ex, and drop down with a kick or punch for more pressure into throw. Lao is a monster. But I'm on Xbox and haven't been able to show him off in vids or streams. He's awesome
Did you know he was a Johnny main originally back in mk9? He played on xbox so i was able to play him once in ranked even though im from norcal in the US. It was a good match tho. I played Lao.
Foxy you’re the peoples champ bro. One of the best at teaching, giving us a laugh, quality gameplay, and you got swag playing the characters that YOU like and not just what’s broken. Rooting for you to be the big winner
Hey foxy thanks for this. I have some combos with Lao using the Jax Kameo and I like how you utilize the low hat for mix ups, combo starters and to some degree combo extender. This is why this game is great! Every kameo opens up new and creative possibilities.
Kung Lao cutting a guy's legs off with a bladed hat, then killing him with the same bladed hat with a strike to the head and saying, " You will not be remembered," is lowkey one of the wildest things.
just got mk1 yesterday and have been loving it and i chose kung lao as my main and have 1 kombo! definitely will watch your videos to learn more kombos for him.
Lao/Lao is godlike. He gets a decent anti air off s1/2/4 assist spin. Low saw pretty much makes the whole 212 string plus. Low saw recovers instantly. you can literally low saw then buzzsaw by the time your buzzsaw recovers your low saw assist already recovered as well. and he gets pseudo unblockable setups or make your f2 safe.
@@nolifezay4636 i prefer Lao/Lao for pressure and some zoning. but goro is also good he gets access to armour launchers also scorpion is a good cameo too for armour launchers.
Great hard-to-blockable setup, but I tested this out and Motaro can both reflect the hat or just teleport you behind Lao since the hat doesn't track (thank god lol)🐉
You didn’t test it off ex headlock, can’t escape it there. You could call reflect but that’s still a summon, so it’s not a guaranteed answer. Still a mind game though, Lao doesn’t have to commit to anything, he can just let the hat do the work and bait the tele.
@@AF0xyGrampa I can't seem to find what setup you mean with ex headlock (enhanced Kung.Kussion right?) along with Back+Kameo? But yeah good point about baiting the tele and yes it's still a mindgame
I have been waiting to see Foxy get ahold of Kung Lao in this game. Please break him out at EVO or something! I hope he’s good enough, lots of characters have serious power in this one.
I planned on Lao/Lao the second I saw it was an option, I’m so glad it’s as good as I anticipated. I do wish I could see more Teleport practicality, but every time I see someone use it there’s just a wide open opportunity for the other player. I miss the MK11/MKX Lao teleport.
@@nicklattimorecomedy5497 Yeah, I definitely wasn’t a pro, but would compete regularly at a God level in KL. That teleport switch up was useful in clever tight spots, especially with Buzz Hat.
fuckin tight dude, gonna try the double lao. i've been playing with Sonya kameo and I get a lot of use out of the square wave but that's about it, i haven't been able to incorporate her other stuff too much but i havent really tried either. Sonya square wave can combo off of the armored BF2 which is sick for wakeup, and you can get super good damage doing 121 into square wave into B24 etc etc sick video man you inspired me to play kung lao way back when
I don't care what they say, he has been nerfed beyond reason.I get it , to have a teleport grab is pretty OP, but to not have a teleportat at all is criminal.idc if his cameo has one.
This looks pretty rad. I’ve been having a real problem deciding on who to play. I am trying Johnny but I feel like he has no mix. It’s like everyone has mix or even just 50/50s except him. And he’s entirely reliant on kameo where others are less so. Where would you put lao on your tier list now? Hated seeing Johnny in BOOTY 😕😕
You have to respect a good Cage, hes still mega oppressive, all the characters rely on their kameo too so I wouldnt worry too much about it, but I see what you mean. I think Lao is up there right now though, hes putting people in disgusting blenders
@@AF0xyGrampa yeah it’s just like if playing someone who understands frame data and turns Johnny is still good but not .. that good What do you think of raiden? He seems to be everywhere and is overwhelmingly simple. I’ll try out lao, hoping for character guides in the future bro. Keep up the content man you been killing it
@@howdydoodydoo3631Raiden has no mix. He does stupid damage if you get opened up but most times I play Raiden they literally NEVER open me up unless they make me whiff and punish me for it. Think cage is better than him and I use Raiden lol
Maybe try Baraka, Raiden or Mileena I'd just say pick whoever you like though, cause you're gonna want to learn them eventually, and the only way to learn a specific character is to play that character
only issue i have with the game is how easy the combos are to land and how much the damage output is, i can do a 50% meterless combo with smoke with little to no difficulty. the reason its my biggest issue is because one slip up and someone can can do a low combo hit and immediately go into a cameo which just sets them up so easily to a 50-80% combo
Thats how it’s played at the highest level. You make one mistake and that could cost you the match. Thats why sometimes there can be periods of zoning in a match, neither player wants to make a mistake.
@@AlexStayFly20 theres two ways you can set it up, either standing 3 into a b sareena, or how i like to do it a f32 into a sareena because its a low, then you dash into a 3,2 and another 32, dash into a f12 grab, then go into an enhanced smoke port, into a 1,1 and then another ex port into a 112
in that case its also confirmable into db4 which would be better to do, regardless its always going to be unsafe, not a move I'd want to just throw out without the low hat to keep it safe
Hey Foxy, would this concept work with Shao aswell? His overhead without his axe is 16 frames (from memory) and bounces the opponent. Lao is already good with Shao for the overhead combo with teleport
It feels like all the characters in this game have some dirt, it's just that some have more than others.
A lot more
That's pretty much the netherealm era of MK in general. And Kung lao never doesn't have sayce
Nitara feels a bit like an afterthought. Feels like I have to drag myself through matches that feel lots better with others.
Nah people go say nerf nerf nerf nerf nerf blah blah “OH my gosh he does 40-50% damage with 1 meter ha lol nerf”

That Mileena combo at 3:28 was insane!
indeed that was filthy
Poor guy was trapped in the corner and couldn’t even get out😭
Bro stg that combo was crazy how does she get after grapple combos that’s wild
Woah
I still can’t believe you can call out your Kameo during that
Kung lao assist is criminally underrated. Just for the low buzzsaw alone.
Dude seriously, also with some grabs you can call in his teleport and get around 20%
Low saw is godlike. it recovers instantly. its plus. used for pseudo unblockable setups. plus you can technically combo off forward grab if you set up low saw. but the timing is soo tight.
@@pancake3576 right! It's great in block string. Leaving u plus with enough spacing that most characters d1 will whiff depending on the string.

Ya the grenades make sense too, I like the low hat since he can frame trap projectiles full screen off it, and makes his F2 game good too
I didn't understand what you said but fuk yeah!!
I need help with Lao
@@a.k.s7613 Pro gamer talk lol
I just feel like you burn through so much meter with Stryker
That combo Dizzy pulled of was disgusting
Do you know how much time has passed, hoping that you return to maining Lao? In other words, I love this.
Did you know he was a Johnny main originally back in mk9? He played on xbox so i was able to play him once in ranked even though im from norcal in the US. It was a good match tho. I played Lao.
Kameo Lao gives Lao all his classic moves that he doesn't have in MK1.

Thinking about picking up Kung Lao I wanted to pick him up in MK11, but never got around to it so this time I’m going to commit 👌
Do it brother. My mans is just as stylish as he is deadly 😂
Truly F0xy was The Great Kung Lao all along.
Hey foxy thanks for this. I have some combos with Lao using the Jax Kameo and I like how you utilize the low hat for mix ups, combo starters and to some degree combo extender. This is why this game is great! Every kameo opens up new and creative possibilities.
Nice I use jax also w lao and got a 51% so far it’s a meter dump w no fb lol setups nice too because ex upkick
Love this! Lao has always been my favorite, and Ive been learning with Lao/Sektor online kasual. This is great inspiration 👌
Kung Lao cutting a guy's legs off with a bladed hat, then killing him with the same bladed hat with a strike to the head and saying, " You will not be remembered," is lowkey one of the wildest things.
Remember on X he would say "learn from this" Lol learn what they're dead🤣🤣🤣
Well played bro!
I enjoyed watching your Kung Lao 👌🏻
I didnt even think to use kung lao with kung lao ive been using scorpion to get some nasty combos gotta try this

You and Sikander are my favorite MK content creators and players. Thank you.

The Shaolin monks are all on smoke this year bro
I just realized I’ve never heard you talk before
Fought dizzy this morning and that mak violated me.. that ass whooping felt racially motivated 😂😂

Bold claim with PL in the scene
some sick movement with the back and forth dashing

KL feels 1000 times better than he did in mk11 imo. Im a KL and Ermac main, my pockets are always Baraka and Noob.
Yea I’ve been using Sonya wit Lao, but now I want to know if goro or Lao is best kameo 😔
Dang that Mileena is crazy good
You finally joined the gang brother? Welcome.
Kung Lao seems like the type of dude who would use his own damn self as an assist.
AYYY LAO GANG IS BACK.
1:51 I'm so mad Johnny broke out of that I wanted to see how schnasty that combo was gonna get 😂👀
Kungl Lao + Kameo Kung Lao is such a funny team but works so well
Dang, that Mileena played so well. Nice gameplay.👍🏽💯
I like using goro in order to get 30% off of his armored wake up and being able to combo of his back 33
How do I unlock goro?
Play story invasions or kL and you’ll unlock him by leveling up your account
You can get about 35% off armored wake-up with Sonya kameo.
I love that hes double lao lol
3:30 omg swaggg
Shhhhhhessshhhh. This makes me want to play Kung Lao even more
Perfect Legend Kung Lao got some styles too
Good thing the green makes it okay 👍
foxys academy in session 📝🤓
I see: A Foxy Video
I think: he is correct
3:10 Dizzy loses the first round and then claps back with a 55% COMBO LIKE IT WAS NOTHING!!!
5:24 shao be like : talk to the hand
Kung Lao pretty great with Sonya, Goro, Cyrax, Sub, Sektor
I was watching your stream when everyone asked you to play Lao and you said you wouldn’t ha!
Damn i love this channel.
The 6:02 wake up was epic
Sub zero mythologies and mk4 have never been matched when it comes to the energy and vibe they brought to mk
Good old vWsym swagging around
Low hat meter recovery is nasty
Your dope with him , ive been maining him since mk2 , just never got upto pro level . He is good. I need to try out more assists with him .
Lao Me would make an amazing tag name imo 🤣❤️👊
Thanks FOxy, very informative and useful.
got the mk deadly alliance kontent music
Man this some fun time here
tf was that mileena combo daamn
Got hit by it too shit was insane
Came for Kung stayed for Mileena!
To think I thought Kung Lao was gonna be trash because they took away his teleport options. Prove me wrong.😂
Deadly Alliance Ost!
What's better than Foxy playing Kung Lao? Foxy playing 2 Kung Laos
But honestly, you having access to Lao/Lao feels like Netherrealm is stacking the deck, you goon.
Stryker, goro, frost / subzero. Are really good kameos for him
Lao?
@nolifezay4636 yes, actually Sonya has best combo potential for him if u get a hit in.
It's more fun when all characters are broken than all shite
Well his earth remains true 🏆
What are the songs used? They hit so hard
And ur playing against a crazy good player too. Foxy just too good
Kung Lao that’s the guy
Goro is pretty fun to use w my boy
Because of 1 overhead mixup Kung lao has everything we want except his signature TELEPORT move lmao. Naaaaa
Teleport was always a lose button anyway. It still is even on the kameo Lao
A 558 combo is crazy
fuckin tight dude, gonna try the double lao. i've been playing with Sonya kameo and I get a lot of use out of the square wave but that's about it, i haven't been able to incorporate her other stuff too much but i havent really tried either.

BRUTALITY!!!
Can we get a Pt.2 of Lao pls
Fax who plays Lao and is good on yt?
@@nolifezay4636 check out scar, he was crazy in mk11 with lao.
Meh, as mix ups go it’s just 1: you got a stronger read and poke game. Just means you play decently, you can do that with any character you learn

Maybe try Baraka, Raiden or Mileena
