One thing to add is the forward throw. If you have 2 bars and spam the block button while doing a forward throw, it will launch the opponent into the air. It’s costly but I use it sometimes to open my opponent up. Love the video!
While messin around in the corner i found the 2nd most damaging no hype combo in the corner (482), its 214, EXDB3, 2, J2, 212, S4, BD1, Cyrax(VH), B2(Hold), S4, BF4. The trick is to delay the first 2 as much as possible then instantly go into J2 to give the opponent enough airtime for you to hit 212. Jus a lil smthn i figured out, but still couldnt have done it before watching this vid coz ive never practised johnny properly so thanks❤
Update for combo. They made it to where you dont have to delay cyrax anymore. If you (hold/press) up and call him, it will force your opponent to fall towards you in the corner.
btw when the nut punch connects you dont necessarily need to summon VH right then and there you can take your time but as soon as you do summon VH you should start holding b2 it still works then it just makes it easier and gives you more time to think
i always come back to learn a new combo, today i learned my first ever 50% combo (7:01) I've been doing it for an hour straight so my fingers HURT but it's worth it :)
see the trick for cyrax to go on the other side is not mostly the timing they land. You have to hit the landing timing for the nut punch. Then instead of doing it instantley you wait for a bit. then call out cyrax. Thats the trick

I love Johnny Cage and you’re one of the reasons I started playing him. I do Cyrax with him too lol he’s so fun to play and this can help to, thank you! And I love the videos! Keep it up!🔥❤️
Mellock really said " the once a month videos type beat I fucks with that heavy shcgasjhdchhsd" but folks better take notes you putting them on game. I can tell from looking at this guide and looking at all the diff clips whew this def take a bit and you aint slock with this lol 6:00
Every time I attempt this corner combo with the Hype, Cyrax pushes the opponent away from the corner behind me where now I am closest to the corner. I have no idea how you can get him to stay in the corner as you charge up back 2. Any idea how to do it consistently?
I’ve been struggling with the the corner combo for 6 months now, I cant consistently get my opponent to fall straight down after I call out cyrax I need help bad
Im new to fighting games and was wondering if anybody could explain to me how to string the dash-f12 into the bd1. Whenever I do it the combo drops. Is there a way to cancel the animation or something?
I think you really maxed out what's possible with Cyrax. I am still going to stick to Styker because Cyrax only gives some damage, but Styker give utility to shadow dash on the enemy for free (with grenade backup), and also to keep enormous pressure because they can't know when you finish your combos. Also, safe EX meter build, and much higher Hype damage is amazing as well. It's really amazing to see the Cyrax route tho, yet I think Stryker give much more than just damage.
First off awesome videos brother! I am having trouble with the ending to the corner combos was there a patch that you can no longer connect S4 into Shadow kick after the charge punch? Needing help!
Make sure your "dummy" is low enough to the ground before connecting nut punch, and make Cyrax is called AFTER connecting the nut punch. Delaying the next input/string in the combo helps with getting them low enough to the ground.
I'll be posting some of my (Mic-On)ranked matches soon, so hopefully there are some sub-zero matches in there. Be what I can say right now, is that Sub-Zero has around a 5-second delay between spamming ice-clone, so I try to get in and apply pressure or bait out moves within that time. I'll also continue my counter-guides for each character as planned🙏
Look at not good at describing but don’t get too close if they’re blocking, usually they’ll try an ice Klone. If you’re trying a move that can be blocked after a combo watch out for that too, they’ll either shield ice slide or ice klone. From range, block downwards as a lot of sub zeros love to ice slide to get close. If blocked, it’s a perfect opportunity to start a combo. Hope that helps, I have more in mind but if anything specific lmk
Idk when this patch was but now bought the game, if you call in cyrax and press up and the same time the opponent always goes forward no matter the timing of nut punch
I haven’t played in so long I came back trying to do the corner combo delayed and he still doesn’t fall back into the corner, I think they patched or nerfed it
Im not gonna lie we might need a new tut, I trying this to hit cyrax after the nut punch and the opponent lands behind me everytime so idk if theres a nerf or sumn cuz I know I should be hitting it (post Takeda drop)
@@TOOWEAKIN there’s a new addition to his helicopter moves to direct where you want your opponent to land, if you press up + kameo you can now send them forward everytime.👍🏽
I have a question how do I hit the back triangle after cyrax comes. when I do it I either do it late or early when do I know when to start charging it up
Charge it right as Johnny's stand animation finishes and the back 2(triangle) should hit near their groin area or mid section as they come down for the best timing.
After that jump upper cut how can I get him to throw that air punch to continue the combo. For some reason every time I try the jump upper cut , it doesn’t allow me to throw another punch until he touches ground.
why does johnny always move back when i hold b2? ive been trying to time it right but it always messes up, do you have anymore tips to share for this? edit: or do i just suck lmao 💀
You're fine😄It definitely takes practice. I hold back first and immediately hold 2(triangle/Y) after to where I'm almost pressing them at the same time. Alternatively, when I try and press them at the same there's a chance it may work, but there's also a high chance that the back punch won't come and Johnny will just start walking backwards.
Up + Kameo is the new move they added to Cyrax's moveset allowing you to send the opponent in the corner every time. The original kameo input sends them towards you everytime.
@@Ryuiro pressing Up with the kameo sends them in front of you every time now. (Up + Kameo) Im going to make an updated guide for post patch cyrax soon. 🫡
There IS a delay you should do, in-between the second 212 and dash-f12. If you're immediately going into f12 after 212, then maybe that could be the problem, so try delaying the f12 into bd1🤔
Cyrax VH means his Vertical Helicopter. It makes Cyrax spin while going up into the air and only hits on falling opponents or airborne opponents. You simply tap R1/RB to call it out and it costs half of your Kameo meter.👍
This is the MK 1 Johnny Cage Bible
😆

It is how many hours i Will have to practice
Actually one of the best Johnny Cage videos out there!

Try to time it so that you start charging it on the 3rd or 4th hit of cyrax's VH, i find that works for me
I just quit this dogshit game and going back to MKX@@AdvanTijj

@@John-qv9zyYes, that string is special cancellable.. when pressing 2, immediately input BD1
treat the whole thing as a string, so press the buttons one after the other in quick succession, even if the moves haven't come out

what do i do if i cant seem to connect the B2 hold after cyrax comes in after the nut punch? im always too late or too early
Just finish the combo in another way
thank you
Are you able to hit VH ?? During the nut punch ?
First off awesome videos brother! I am having trouble with the ending to the corner combos was there a patch that you can no longer connect S4 into Shadow kick after the charge punch? Needing help!
Look at his new tutorial with the new cameo he explains what to do now but how do you keep them in the corner after cyrax it won't work at all for .w
you can do 212 s4 hype in corner and 212 f3 hype mid screen
also rising star j2 hype nut punch mid screen and corner
for the hype corner combo, I cant connect hold b2 after cyrax kameo, my dummy just switches sides after the cyrax kameo. any tips?
Make sure your "dummy" is low enough to the ground before connecting nut punch, and make Cyrax is called AFTER connecting the nut punch.
Delaying the next input/string in the combo helps with getting them low enough to the ground.
@@Mellock2.0 i just did it, and i know my mistake. I called cyrax BEFORE the nut punch. Thanks a ton!
