I was so scared peacemaker was just gonna be robocop 2 but I’m pleasantly surprised at how stupid fun he is. Hope the rest of the characters keep being like this
22:35 I love that Peacemaker’s “pipsqueak” remark is what pissed off Shang Tsung so much that’s he’s speechless; usually Shang always has something to say, even against trash-talk, heck he always had something to say against Johnny Cage, and Johnny is the loudmouth of the MK universe.
All other characters in a mirror match: "What is this bullshittery, you faker?" John Cena in a mirror match: "Hey this is awesome, let's rag on other people together."
I love that Ed and Peacemaker were both considered by many to be the low-point of the respective line-up of DLC characters but then each came out swinging.
I think the thing that delights me the most in watching Peacemaker is.....he calls out most of his special moves? Mortal Kombat is notoriously a grunts and groans kinda soundscape with few lines of dialogue so having a character be more like say a Street Fighter character or anime fighter character is nice to listen to. Always a good time to be full screen and just shout TORPEDO as you go for a hail mary
Combo trials rarely if ever give you useful combos for online matches. It's the players who develop reliable BnBs for most scenarios, trials are just for fun
Thank god they made Peacemaker the best character in the game. Out of every DC character that could guest star in an MK game he is the most perfect choice ever.
@@binkl2844 I know, but in Mk3 everyone hated him. In MK9 he died, in the animated movie he got killed and he didn't do anything in MKX... Now in this game people finaly like him
@@binkl2844i don’t think OP is referring to how he functions in this game gameplay wise. More so the character’s historic reputation in the franchise of being a boring cop
@Timeforceletsgo, maybe they just haven't played the character because when I first saw the trailer , I wasn't really interested but after playing him, he's actually incredibly freakin fun
In case anyone has issues with peacemaker's kombo trial 7, you can omit the insta-gravity move. You can only hold Sonya's projectile and get close to the oponent to get the aerial combo.
Peacemaker was my most anticipated character cause I love The Suicide Squad and adored his show. I actually got into MK cause the leaks where going around that he was going to be DLC. But he was clearly the character everyone was least hyped for, and the internet made that clear. But now I'm so happy to see people loving him and enjoying him so much!
Not even really related to the video, but the iconic Dood intro is the only hyped-up cinematic intro on TH-cam that is consistently exciting and not cringe at all
That peacemaker combo #9 was insane. A trophy is deserved for pulling that off and If someone achieved that Combo kudos to you 💯🙏 I'd have thrown my controller on that one 😂😭
@@nickdavid1846 My condolences I haven't gotten to Shang Tsung but I can only imagine. Some of the combos in this game are hell to pull off. I'm giving praise to whoever completed them, trust me I feel your pain 😫🙏😂
You can tell Max is having a blast with John Cena Peacemaker. Even Cena’s dialogue is blending in so well with the MK kast, and the combos that he does is insane. He is just a better version of Kurtis Stryker if he was done right and if he had Deadpool’s personality. 10:48 Max creates a new catch phrase “It’s Cena time!”
I agree Max lol some of those difficult Mortal Kombat combo challenges at the end are damn near impossible and definitely way harder than anything at Street Fighter or Tekken I agree.The timing and execution of them are just ridiculous. Peacemaker is a wild character.
I usually just end the video when the outro hits but I was pleasantly surprised when that quip of Max complaining having a good problem and I thought it was hilarious
Awesome stuff Max. Peacemaker Combo Trials are insane and very tough indeed. Not had a chance too Play FF7: Rebirth yet, been checking out Ed and Peacemaker first, too much quality stuff too do but so little time lol.
There was a Raiden combo in deadly alliance that was so long, took me forever to beat it and the one time i got it i had literally tried so many times that it felt like i was memorizing a long cheat code and i ended up getting it off pure muscle memory with zero thought as to the buttons i was pushing
Lol I remember that kombo too. It was long like one of those Tekken 12 hits and u had to switch to his staff stance in the middle of the kombo I believe. I never bothered to attempt it lol.
When he’s like like omg that’s my reaction when I see any of the characters 3rd combo string I’m pretty sure I legit don’t have any character past the 3rd combo string
I wonder how easy it would be for NRS to make every character as open and have as many options as peacemaker does. I'm sure some minor tweaking could make most the roster like this.
I really hope in a future update they kinda adjust the rest of the characters to work in a similar way to Peacemaker. Have the base character be a full character with a bunch of their own sauce, and have cameos be just an extra thing on top that have the ability to push things forward without being SUPER necessary.
the basic stuff is just so mind melting idk how anyone plays tekken, gotta remember so maybe buttons and timeing but now the inputs you hold matter too. i'm shocked these trails even get added as you don't actually end up doing these combos
that shunjinko combo really shows the problem with how kameos were implemented, tremor has inputs just as frustrating as that and they're extremely easy to drop.
NRS definitely needs to do more of this with every character in the game. I imagine it'll be very hard to do and take a lot of time, but if it means characters will be way more fun to play and give this game life, i don't see how it could hurt.
I was so scared peacemaker was just gonna be robocop 2 but I’m pleasantly surprised at how stupid fun he is. Hope the rest of the characters keep being like this
Well for starters he ain't addicted To Nuke he's addicted To peace! 😄😆
@@darius8715nuke is stupid fun
I’d love to see the literal Robocop 2 in a MK game. lol
Takedas gonna be damn amazing
This makes me more excited for Ermac. Imagine the stuff will be able to do with him.

20:03 idk why but seeing the light flash on max’s face from the sonic boom is the funniest thing to me💀
Lmaooooo
Its like that one homelander meme gif
meme material 😂
Watching utter obliteration with an expressionless face 😂😂
😂😂
It's hilarious to me that Johnpeace Cenamaker doesn't have a weird or flashy pose in battle, he's just stanced up.
He stances so still that he becomes invisible to the naked eye
I need this arc to end in Max watching through John Cena's wrestlemania matches.
Max analyzing a Cena match like it’s a fighting game would be dope.
I better see that
Cena vs Aj styles is a good one!
@@CuriousCorduroy”that elbow drop was ambitious, but it is safe. Ooh shit the pile-driver super? That was sick dude”
Which one though?@Richard-Espanol
All other characters in a mirror match: "What is this bullshittery, you faker?"

Happy Chaos mirror energy for sure lol
Of all the things Shang Tsung has ever been called, Peacemaker's pip-squeak is the one that got him?
It’s the first time he’s heard the word.
It's a racial slur where he comes from
Peacemaker learned it from his dad
Nobody calls me a pipsqueak and lives!
I love that Ed and Peacemaker were both considered by many to be the low-point of the respective line-up of DLC characters but then each came out swinging.
I love how when Peacemaker gets hit after the initial interaction before the match he just goes "JESUS! What the hell??" Hilarious.
does jesus exist in the MK universe
@@ftrtrjn next dlc character confirmed?
@@Locustsinmylungs his fatality is forgiving you of your sins, and his love is simply too powerful so you kinda just explode
Peacemaker arcade ending gives up the vibes that he’s been given a toy box he never wants to stop playing with.😺
That whole Peacemaker Kombo 9 section is pretty much me in any fighting game's combo trials, but by like... the 4th combo...
lol
Me with any anti-air combo
I love how both Ed and Peacemaker were left-field bangers of characters around the same time.
Man, after this i think every character needs a revision to make them more fun, maybe that will make the game way better, the basics are there.
You can freestyle combos with almost everyone.
Only a few character combos are this complex

Hearing "Anti Gravity!😂" is probably my favorite.
TOTSUGEKI
Peacemaker gives me MK9 character vibes personality wise. Love how crass he is.
MK9 personality wise
MKX gameplay wise
MVC in terms of presentation
John Cena is peak kino
Max finding Shujinko's cancel's hard was definitely a surprise to me.
I guess it's because I actually use Shujinko but that trial was pretty easy for me
@@gr33nriver77same
@@gr33nriver77same
@gr33nriver77 yeah I don't use shujinko at all and the combo took me like 10 tries, I guess it might just have been release check
Yeah, same. I play Shujinko with Liu Kang and I have no trouble at all with his inputs.
“I’m telling you it’s ESSENTIAL to include a combo for a specific match up with a specific and unpopular cameo”

Shujinko is goated indeed
Thank god they made Peacemaker the best character in the game. Out of every DC character that could guest star in an MK game he is the most perfect choice ever.

4:40 “Anymore, anymore tell me” last words before disaster
Peacemaker really do be insane.
Über-offended Shang Tsung after being called "pipsqueak" is the funniest thing in the whole video.
Shang Tsung cant believe the audacity of Cena calling him Pipsqeuk like hes a child😂😂😂
Got mad respect for you Max for keeping real and not riding Hate trains for views! 👊
Exactly this, if it is fun it is fun, it’s almost like people are forcing themselves to hate peacemaker just to stay on their hating ass TH-cam rants.
Tom Brady is a typical example making about 5 videos hating on mk1 like bro we get it dummy 😂
@Timeforceletsgo, maybe they just haven't played the character because when I first saw the trailer , I wasn't really interested but after playing him, he's actually incredibly freakin fun
18:07, that 'idiot' was really really well delivered, go Nitara
20:20 Max, that's a mirror match lol
12:23 *John Cena is unlocking peace*
BOO YAH!!
In case anyone has issues with peacemaker's kombo trial 7, you can omit the insta-gravity move. You can only hold Sonya's projectile and get close to the oponent to get the aerial combo.
The sound effects of gore and just seeing maxs face is so funny 😂
I've seen an Epic Combo with Peacemaker and Shujinko
Seeing Max have fun in mk is always great
i can hear the amount of fun john cena had recording these lines
I REALLY hope this is enough to get you to try out his series! Knowing all the references makes it so much sweeter, show is fantastic too!
Mortal kombat is extremely fun when you don’t have anime fighter nerds telling you it sucks
Preach

"Eat this bird." popped me. 😂
12:06 you mean to tell me John Cena wasn’t invisible this whole time 😮
max's reaction to an incredibly difficult combo string is my reaction to literally any combo input in fighting games.
I usually just end the video when the outro hits but I was pleasantly surprised when that quip of Max complaining having a good problem and I thought it was hilarious
Max popping up during his outro complaining about having cool fighting game characters right before ff7 was hilarious to me. 😂
2:25 wesker moment
John Cena was born in the Sauce, he was molded by it
Awesome stuff Max.
Peacemaker Combo Trials are insane and very tough indeed.
Not had a chance too Play FF7: Rebirth yet, been checking out Ed and Peacemaker first, too much quality stuff too do but so little time lol.
Just wanna say how nice it is to have a "celebrity" voice performance in MK and it sounds fantastic. Cena really went all in !
Mom: Sweety, we already have a Guile at home.
John Cena: SONIC BOOM
I swear Eclipso is one of the most used DC villains for when they want a bad guy to fight in the background of some other story
There was a Raiden combo in deadly alliance that was so long, took me forever to beat it and the one time i got it i had literally tried so many times that it felt like i was memorizing a long cheat code and i ended up getting it off pure muscle memory with zero thought as to the buttons i was pushing

Broh I never had so much fun playing a fighting game like I did while playing Peacemaker, this character is fricking awesome!
PM is going to be one of the most rewarding to learn, what an absolute beatdown he can serve
Evil mirror John Cena be like: "You can see me, I am solid as FUCK!!!." *uses hands like binoculars*
Here's hoping this ends with Max studying the frame date of John Cena's actual WWE matches.
so glad he’s enjoying peacemaker as much as i am this character is so good
I love how Peacemaker casuelle shoots his opponents in the knees
Playing against Nitaras AI is like fighting a crackhead IRL
Lol u mean how she flies all over the place?
Actually let out a holler at 14:25 that combo was damn sexy
That Shujinko one still eludes me lol.. idk why but I haven’t been able to finish it lol
I just can *NOT* get the 22grab part of the 5th challenge to come out no matter how I vary the timing of it... it just does not work :(
Hope this gets more attention for the peacemaker show it’s honestly super good
This game needs updates to bring every character to this level of insanity.
Just imagine the weird ass flying shit ermac is gonna have if this is any indication of future releases
Who would have thought that one of the most fun characters in a MK game would be John Cena. Never in a million years.
Good lord..the damage from some of these combos is actually nuts
Looks like netherrealm tried to sneak in a promove in the last combo
2:24 for a hours I thought he was saying it incredibly 😂not anti gravity
I was hearing "Anti Purpose!" for some reason😂
😂😂😂😂 I would've never guessed this guy would be Max's character!!! 😅😅😅
I wonder how easy it would be for NRS to make every character as open and have as many options as peacemaker does. I'm sure some minor tweaking could make most the roster like this.
it's extremely fun to see peacemaker and striker save the multiverse
Something about Quan Chi reminds me of squidward😂... Who designed Mk1 Quan Chi has questions to answer.
Lol it's like u can picture Squidward in Quan Chi's costume😂😂
Loving that outro edit XD
I’ve had my ups and downs with this game but peacemaker makes me want to play this game over and over… he’s the funnest character in the game by far

CPU Cena is like "I'm an E. Honda main"
“Ten times harder than anything in tekken”
Yeah aight. Do taunt jet upper.
Those combos were insane and fun to watch!
16:37 missed one, quick before the YT bloodhounds get ya
I just need now for max to watch the peacemaker show
Vigilante should’ve been the cameo to come out with Peacemaker. That would be so sick!
the basic stuff is just so mind melting idk how anyone plays tekken, gotta remember so maybe buttons and timeing but now the inputs you hold matter too. i'm shocked these trails even get added as you don't actually end up doing these combos

that headbutt grab sounds so satisfying to land lol. also Ealge-e 😂
I hope ermac, takeada and homelander are as interesting as peacemaker and don't feel underpowered like quan chi
That’s cool I can usually do like the first move of the combo in training then get way to frustrated and skip task
So John Cena gets to pretend he's Guile and E. Honda, but as Peacemaker in MK1?
Neat.
Ladies & gentlemen...
He's got the sauce.
*Looks at the thumbnail*
Wake up Babe, new chat emote just dropped😂
Playing peacemaker made me wish we had a no kameo mode
I feel like it's coming. The game has only been out 6 months.
