@@Peaterbeaterchickeneater Yea lol, that's why labbing is huge! Gotta use real pressure that doesn't fall apart with a poke. There's always gonna be some kind of risk, but some are better than others 🤘🏻
@ yeah the ermac pressure is easy to read for the most part I think rain can be pretty tricky but they got to be good at it and smoke is fake as shit you just mash on him lol 😂 good video though man
@Peaterbeaterchickeneater Facts my dude Smoke pressure is the worst unfortunately 😅 Rain seems similar to Ermac to me in that they can both punish D1 pokes, but Rain's cancels are a bit slower, so you have a bit more time to react. I think Ermac has the best cancels overall since he can be plus too! Thanks my dude! Let me know what you wanna see next! 🤘🏻
Ermac fake pressure kinda real tho. But if someone cancels are on point and random af both of their cancels are real especially with the new buff with 💨
I would love to see a series on general MK fundamentals for beginners because, with me and my friend Jacob getting into this game as fresh beginners to the fighting game genre this should really helpx
Really good and informative video! Although for me, as a new player (or rather returning, i played until UMK3 back when i was a kid), it was still a bit too fast in some spots. Nonetheless, i saved the vid to come back to it. (maybe you could turn on to show the buttons next time, so it's a bit easier following what moves you do?) My personal problem with the biggest feature you mention, the recordings, is that i barely know all about my current main Noob Saibot, so i basically know almost nothing about the other chars, so i can't really record a string i have problems with to work it out .. I also like Ermac as fighter, although not sure if i should divert before learning Noob properly ... but he looks really cool in the combos. This season, i started playing some Kombat League and i got to a decent start with like 7-2, but then the last two days i absolutely get obliterated, mostly by newish Steam accounts with low levels ingame putting out spotless combos and always blocking everything i try to do ... As a gaming veteran, i've seen many tricks players use to win, and have to ask how common it is in MK to have cheaters? Or am i just absolute dogwater? I did the last two Invasions and all the challenges there to 100% and have about 90-95% clearance of Tutorials + tutorial-combos. I checked out your tutorial on Noob Saibot and have to say, i have a really hard time hitting the Janet jump after the F3 overhead .. is there a trick to it? Also, one of my biggest problems i think is that i tend to overreact to fighters like Smoke/JohnnyCage/LiuKang and tend to desparately get out of the constant pressure and my fingers/hands start cramping .. how would you go about fixing that? Big thanks, and keep up the top tier guides!
Thanks for the feedback my dude! 🤘🏻 I will be turning on button logs for future vids. As far as labbing goes, that's the exact reason to lab. You will be much better if you learn other characters and how to play them as well as the ones you like. Part of that is recreating what you fight against online and checking the other character's strings one by one on the move list until you find the ones they're doing. You start by labbing against the things you struggle dealing with online. Trust me, it's worth it! As far as Ermac, he is a very cool character for sure, but he is very difficult to use. I have a guide on him here: th-cam.com/video/cGDiY6idpBw/w-d-xo.htmlsi=9O9G2VxvorBdcLB1 I think it's good to explore, but it sounds like you're focusing too much on combos. It's better to learn frame data and fundamentals like: What moves are unsafe? What are you best pokes? What are your best punishes? When is it your turn? These things will make you feel much more confident! As far as cheaters, it doesn't sound like cheating, you might just be doing stuff that's unsafe without knowing it. I don't think you should bring yourself down over it, just practice and get better! 💪🏻 Let me know what you wanna see a video on next! I'm always down to help 🤘🏻
@@MushaFGC hey thanks for the detailed response! will keep that in mind and spend more time in the lab. As for wishes for your next videos, I saw your "Pressure and Combo guide" and maybe something from the opposite side would be nice, with focus on some basics and fundamentals.. maybe something like "Defense and interruptions/getting out" (or timings when you can get your turn back, without just using the Kameo breaker) in tough situations/corners/etc. I know it might be tedious for you to "repeat" the basics again and i finished the tutorial with all the specific mechanics and techniques and terms like Punishes, Pokes, Pressure, etc, but some things like Reversals didn't stick as well ... So not in a demanding way at all, but more like some more ideas for your videos, since you asked about what we would like to see ;)
@@adamvalenti3521 Nice man! I like to say "practice mode is not optional", so definitely a criminally underused part of the game! Learning how to use it is key! That's why I made this video going through it. Let me know if there's anything else you want me to go over. Hope it helped my dude! 🤘🏻
Great vid man but I have a question. I’ve been trying to lab a auto confirm off of sektor’s b34 into ex db4 but can’t find the right way to lab it. Random kombo only works on the first hit and random hit is just random and I want to lab the second hit of that string specifically any tips would be appreciated
I get you my dude... It can be tricky recreating things for characters you don't know, but it is worth it. Doing this will let you play the whole cast eventually! The more characters you play, the better you understand the game, the more you'll improve and win 🤘🏻 Let me know what you want to see next!
Such an underrated and much needed topic to address 👌🏽
