MAND Hello, My Friend! So, you've decided to kick off the year with your first video-one that’s bound to stir up all sorts of excitement and debates (and maybe even a few “delete this video” requests… just kidding)! Thank you for your fantastic effort and for sharing your thoughts on their current effectiveness-it’s always appreciated. P.S. You should’ve seen your face when talking about Jade MK11... The fiery “love-hate” dynamic you two share is something else! It’s like you can’t be in the same space together… but you also can’t stay apart!
@@horndogaultimate5923Yeah i would like to know something about Shaolin Monk too because i think he is an incredible guy and very skilled player as well.
My God Just don't know why you hate Mk1 Takeda (scorpion) like that. I don't think he is trash at all. I think he should be in A category. I think he is better than most characters in B category. He deals lots of damage and gains shield for a brief period each time he does a special attack. His passive gives him a 2nd life briefly.
Definitely! Especially low fusion, he's very useful. Also he's free to get. He definitely carried everyone's account in specific battles at some point. He's at least an A.
Strike Force Johnny cage is a top 3 fighter in the game with block breaker equips. Legit get the opponent in the corner and you win as long as you get one bar of power every time you do his 2nd combo ender
MK1 Scorpion deserves S Tier...He is so fast! Plus his snare and cripple (SP2 Unblockable) make him top-notch. SP3 is really cool. His passive that makes him invulnerable just cannot be ignored. 🦂
On the official Disord I'm told he's good but suddenly this video says he's garbage. I don't know what to believe, I have no opinion because haven't used him yet.
@theq86 nah man mk1 scorpion is actually really good he has decent basic attack speed and very useful debuffs on his special attacks, team him with martial arts kards and he'll become a monster The only reason mand isn't liking him is cause he prefers scorpions to have same special one as all other scorpions in the game
There should be a tier list for tower bosses and for krypt Krypt relies more on longevity like MK11 SZ where Towers need damage and utility like Joker or MK1 Shang Should be graded differently
DotD Jade is still super good and still one of the top damage dealers. MK1 Smoke is crazy good (S-tier for me), one of my favourite characters and top-3 boss killers. Way better than MK1 Kenshi, MK1 Shang, and probably on par with MK1 Scorpion. You know, regarding damage per second, he can compete with KLK.
The Fujin passive doesn’t work against bosses after the new update, I lot of people said it’s a bug or something, also Classic Ermac have the same problem as Mk11 Fujin
12:30 I agree with that. I can easily pass through towers with only the non-fusion MK11 Scorpion. I am a beginner account. I'm taking Cyrax and Pyromancer Tanya with her. It's great. I usually switch between Cyrax and Scorpion in BOSS fights. With Scorpion, I switch to Cyrax by hitting SP1 and krush. Cyrax has my power generation equipment equipped. After throwing SP1 3-4 or more times, I switch back to Scorpion and throw SP1 krush at the opponent again. Then this cycle repeats. By the way, in BOSS fights, I take Classic Ermac or Silver Kung Jin instead of Pyromancer Tanya. My goal with Kung Jin is to increase my critical throw chance. And with Ermac, DOT damage (soul siphon). For BOSS I use Kung Jin or Ermac.
MK11 Subzero should fall into the S category because it is a character equal to or higher than mk 11 liu kang 1) Giving Mk11 characters another life 2) Frostbite feature 3) Stun + bonus attack on 2nd special attack 4) Being a very good fighter, which is a trait that no one mentions. Even though it is not as much as Liu Kang or Scorpion, it can freeze at the end of the combo. This is a feature that Liu Kang or Scorpion does not have and it does not change the fact that it performs close to them. And another issue is that Mk1 kenshi is also in S Its special attack powers include very good speed and death mark. It also has the ability to receive spam, it will be much stronger if you install the right equipment. Another issue is that it is very difficult to become Fujin S tier. Might be A+ but not as good as in other S characters
Happy New Year, MAND! If you could export your lists to images and link them in your videos it would be so nice and useful! I love watching these but also like to save them as resources to compare and always struggle with getting a screenshot of your full lists. Simply using the tier list tool to export it or link the saved lists in your videos would be fantastic! Please give it some consideration! Thanks!
How kano Is better than mk1 Scorpion? Lolololol I'm not a fan of Mk1 Scorpion either, but bro, put aside your hate for certain characters and make a decent tier list ☠️
12:45 Agreed, i used him at battle 200 kold tower recently to remove the freezes from Arctic wind while i used mk11 scorpion as a fighter to damage the bosses He worked pretty well,also his huricanes were usefull to deal more damage in that fight 14:10 True,but without him battle 160 kold tower is hell
I will argue that sindel is not only S but at the top of S. The ability to stun the likes of ass jade, diamond Jason etc so they can't pull some funny ish when doing a special, plus just the need to stun in any situation. 25% resistance to stun for the team and the same for unblockable chance. 50% chance to shield break the opp when the OPP is attacking. And that's not even why she's S. My team is fusion 10 her, f10 scorpion and f10 fujin. And she out damages both and it's not even close. Her sp 2 does more damage than either or the 2 and just overall damage output in general. She legit is the biggest damage dealer I have. And that's on top of all the other things that make her great. The rest of the list I agree with for the most part but sindel is godly.
Amazing as always. I wanted to ask which rare card gives assassin Scarlet more value? There was a brief mention of that. Is it the rare from the friendship set?
Mk1 shang is a top 10 S-tier character he can save you and can pickup his combos from almost anywhere. If you play him right you don't need blockbreak.
This dude has absolutely no sense at anything in this game lmfao how can someone play this every single day for years and be this naive. Klassic Reptile, MK11 Sub, MK1 Scorpion, MK11 Kabal, KLASSIC MOVIE RAIDEN (!!!)... According to this man, those are all worse than KOLD SCORPION lmfao this is pathetic.
@@MANDMK I literally mentioned in the comment a few examples on how wrong you are. There's no need for more than that. I'm not even mentioning the pointless pettiness you have with MK1 characters for absolutely no reason lol There's that too.
Mand I love your content been watching for about a year and half and I want your opinion on a gold klassic Johnny cage why don’t we have that character
Regeneration is useless now, there are no game modes where it can help, regeneration is reduced in Krypt and fatal Survival mode. So all characters with regen should be placed at lower tiers
First of Happy New year mand Secondly comon man mk 1 takeda 😂 i thought It was a mistake last time XD also if monk saw this it'll be a big debate all over again 😂
Finally a long waited list. A good one and very accurate ! (Except MK69 Takeda. He is bottom C, not trash c'mon my man why do you hate him so much lol !). By the way do you have any news of ShaolinMonk ? Did he retire permanently ? Would love to see his take on these new characters as well.
I am not sure if BD Kano deserved to be in Tier C, because all those cards are better than him in this tier. The same for Kung Lao and Mk11 Shang and COS Liukang in their tier list.
Excellent Tier List BUT: I'd put MK11 SZ S tier I'd put KL Reptile A at least I'd put Guardian Terminator A I'd put Fujin A tier. He's not S tier sorry. Maybe I'd put BD Kabal A tier. Maybe Rest pretty much I agree. Love your videos Mand!
For me: Fujin and Joker 1 down. Sindel Main A. FireGod + both Scorpion 1, Kenshi: 1 down. On B: Cassie 2 down. KMJC 1 down. And MK11 Kabal still in B but in a better place. On C: Smoke +1 Up, Kitana, Goro, Takeda, Kano: Trash. And MK1 Scorpion +2 Up. Very cool list.
Plz mand do video telling us what are most necessary gears epic and rares we must max Have lot of level up equipment from krypt. What ymost important gearyto start Thanks
I wonder whats the next diamond character we need more S tier list characters especially females since l think Regebrpis Mileena the Only s female character
It's kinda sad that if you delete all characters from B,C and D categories, no one will notice any differences because no one play them. NRS need to rebalance characters. No way you've just put BD Kabal and Tremor in the same team. Tremor is trash, while Kabal has sneak attacks. Same with CoS SZ - haven't you like one-shotted some towers, using Weather Warfare+Scipetre+Spectre's Vengeance on him? It's like one of the 2 character's. who can spam SP1 with freeze non-stop with Weather Warfare. Assassin Scarlett in B-tier is 💀, she can literally melt teams in DOT-team. Spawn in A is ☠☠
I still think MK11 Jade is top A/bottom S. It is easy to give her Diamond-level stats with easily obtainable equipment (e.g., 2 health pieces + Wrath Hammer). BD Kano, Ronin Takeda, and Assassin Kitana are complete trash. I agree with the rest.
the S tier is the same for many years now, it just tells us that netherrealm needs to update the passives of old characters
I need to know how mk1 kenshi is better than klassic reptile and mk11 sub zero.
What's the peoblem with MK1 Scorpion? How come he is bottom tier? This seems like some personal dislike rather than objective assessment.
absolutely correct.....and it's very irritating when he calls him takeda
@ayushraj0.7 Is there a reason to call him Takeda :D? And for this personal disdain for the actually cool character?
Agreed he just doesn’t like him for me hes S/A tier boss killer tired of him constantly shitting on him wt a dick
He doesn’t play like a scorpion

He is trash equipment cards do a better job and kameos
I think he's in B. But I think he's better than MK1 Mileena.
@@gwendolynmkm-u5t he is in S ^^ can oneshot every character
MK11 Sub Zero deserves S Tier
Agreed
Nope
why ? xD
Agreed, his basic attacks are one of the best in the game
I agree 👍
Strike Force Johnny cage is a top 3 fighter in the game with block breaker equips. Legit get the opponent in the corner and you win as long as you get one bar of power every time you do his 2nd combo ender
😂
MK1 Scorpion deserves S Tier...He is so fast!
Plus his snare and cripple (SP2 Unblockable) make him top-notch.
SP3 is really cool.
His passive that makes him invulnerable just cannot be ignored. 🦂
true
This is true. His passive feels like a maxed out Varmint's Ace In The Hole. Deserves at least an A
everyone ignore that... i dont know why, for me is a S+ and not a simple S
On the official Disord I'm told he's good but suddenly this video says he's garbage. I don't know what to believe, I have no opinion because haven't used him yet.

Krypt relies more on longevity like MK11 SZ where Towers need damage and utility like Joker or MK1 Shang
Should be graded differently
Can you please make a list of best diamond teams?? Like best 10?
I WAITED SO LONG FOR THIS. The only tierlist I believe in. Thank you Mand ❤
Ranking characters ❌ rating personal favour of his favourite characters✔️
DotD Jade is still super good and still one of the top damage dealers. MK1 Smoke is crazy good (S-tier for me), one of my favourite characters and top-3 boss killers.

Wait it doesn’t??? They get on my nerves they are always ruining characters passives to make boss fights more annoying smh!!!
do you know you can beat major of the battles with mk11 scorpion , assassin skarlet and R. mileena. with incurability gear. the damege is insane
Major battles of what?
He's quite literally the first guy that promoted that team with that gear.
@@nachomolaolivera7580 lol
12:30 I agree with that. I can easily pass through towers with only the non-fusion MK11 Scorpion. I am a beginner account. I'm taking Cyrax and Pyromancer Tanya with her. It's great.

happy new year Mand!
Except for the Klassic reptile, I agree with the tier list. Good job👍
I need a video on how to use Klassic Rain best against bosses. Great list 👍
just search my channel "klassic rain" and you will find tons of videos :)
Why i feel like this video is rushed and not accurate, the previous ranking is better, mk11 subzero is an S and klassic reptile is A
No tier list is accurate
I heavily disagree
9:44 not only his sp2, that cripple on tag is unreal.
Arguably the best list I have ever seen. Very well made 👍
MK11 Subzero should fall into the S category because it is a character equal to or higher than mk 11 liu kang
1) Giving Mk11 characters another life
2) Frostbite feature
3) Stun + bonus attack on 2nd special attack
4) Being a very good fighter, which is a trait that no one mentions. Even though it is not as much as Liu Kang or Scorpion, it can freeze at the end of the combo. This is a feature that Liu Kang or Scorpion does not have and it does not change the fact that it performs close to them.
And another issue is that Mk1 kenshi is also in S
Its special attack powers include very good speed and death mark. It also has the ability to receive spam, it will be much stronger if you install the right equipment.
Another issue is that it is very difficult to become Fujin S tier. Might be A+ but not as good as in other S characters
Thank you mand I was waiting for this video love you mand looking forward to more content please continue post on this channel greetings from India 🙏🏻
Happy new year mand.🎉 Thank you for this video. Waiting for your ratings for golds too.
Subzero is the only character you got wrong placement, I believe he's an S tier character
We may disagree at some of the ranking but i love you man. You can upload video everyday i'd still watch it :)
Happy New Year, MAND! If you could export your lists to images and link them in your videos it would be so nice and useful! I love watching these but also like to save them as resources to compare and always struggle with getting a screenshot of your full lists. Simply using the tier list tool to export it or link the saved lists in your videos would be fantastic! Please give it some consideration! Thanks!
I love nightwish too MAND hahaha, great band!
Fire god liu with pyromancer Tanya is a super deadly duo mainly because she can support fire god liu
Thanks for the review...a new idea for you(or not) according to the equipment rating (tier list) in f0
How kano Is better than mk1 Scorpion? Lolololol
I'm not a fan of Mk1 Scorpion either, but bro, put aside your hate for certain characters and make a decent tier list ☠️
Just got my 1st Fusion X diamond of MK11 Sindel after 1 year of playing 😅 took break for about 3 months tho
I was telling you to make the diamonds, including the new diamonds to create video it two weeks ago you for doing it rating thank you❤
12:45 Agreed, i used him at battle 200 kold tower recently to remove the freezes from Arctic wind while i used mk11 scorpion as a fighter to damage the bosses
He worked pretty well,also his huricanes were usefull to deal more damage in that fight
14:10 True,but without him battle 160 kold tower is hell
nice to see you again🤗
@MANDMK pls do a video about which friendship gear is better than that character's brutality equipment
Perhaps Scorpion or Kitana, maybe Scarlett, Sub Zero if the gear is fusion 0?
I will argue that sindel is not only S but at the top of S. The ability to stun the likes of ass jade, diamond Jason etc so they can't pull some funny ish when doing a special, plus just the need to stun in any situation. 25% resistance to stun for the team and the same for unblockable chance. 50% chance to shield break the opp when the OPP is attacking.

@@henriksti2 OK
Need golds ranked atleast the comparision between teams like edenian, lizard and onslaught, which team would be good to max out
Mand I love your content been watching for about a year and half and I want your opinion on a gold klassic Johnny cage why don’t we have that character
Regeneration is useless now, there are no game modes where it can help, regeneration is reduced in Krypt and fatal Survival mode. So all characters with regen should be placed at lower tiers
this is a good point actually :)
Regeneration is still good in krypt
Healing 10% every battle is better than not and keep getting wittled down
@@Degatino kript îs king....
Dotd kitana trash@@MANDMK
Not sure what you mean. Joker Batman noobs Regen is OP in all situations.
Jax Klassic it's a B, the damage it can cause with the second SP is impressive.
Next new character will be trash as well right mand
I hope no
First of Happy New year mand
Secondly comon man mk 1 takeda 😂 i thought It was a mistake last time XD also if monk saw this it'll be a big debate all over again 😂
MK11 subzero can be at middle of s tier
I've been playing elder krypt with klassic Jax, the guy's really good👏🏾. Though i agree with the bottom B
Finally a long waited list. A good one and very accurate ! (Except MK69 Takeda. He is bottom C, not trash c'mon my man why do you hate him so much lol !). By the way do you have any news of ShaolinMonk ? Did he retire permanently ? Would love to see his take on these new characters as well.
I was chatting with him from time to time but recently he stopped answering anything in Discord. I have no news about him for months.
Please make a gold character tier listt
Totally agreed with mk1 scorpion...but just dishearted to see Scorpion as trash
Darkest Knoght Noob Saibot comes top Tier I agree
Damn Mand really hate Mk1 smoke.I don't think he's that bad and he's fun to play with 🎉
WTF...MK 1 Scorpion is a solid A or top B... super fun to play for me.
He doesn’t like the fact that MK1 Scorpion is Kuai Liang and not Hanzo Hasashi.
Not even that scorpion sucks in general tbh and i use him he's definitely the worst mk1 character @ElephantforEx
Mk 11 kabal - try him with shinati of north f0 and midnight stalker sight f10 fastest X ray ever
I'm surprised MK11 Rain and Klassic Reptile are so high. I must be under utilizing them.
Isn't fujin bugged currently? Are u using the pre bugged fujin
Didn't know that he was bugged
Look into it
Thanks for not hating mk11 jade anymore 😂 she literally carried my account for a min
I am not sure if BD Kano deserved to be in Tier C, because all those cards are better than him in this tier. The same for Kung Lao and Mk11 Shang and COS Liukang in their tier list.
Excellent Tier List BUT:
I'd put MK11 SZ S tier
I'd put KL Reptile A at least
I'd put Guardian Terminator A
I'd put Fujin A tier. He's not S tier sorry.
Maybe I'd put BD Kabal A tier. Maybe
Rest pretty much I agree. Love your videos Mand!
I also think that DOTD Jade is better than Assassin Jade
18:33 when he told him trash I was like "what " 😂
6:43 One of my favourite characters. He is super good.
I agree for the most
Part but mk11 jade is S tier,her support helped me build
My account.
Mand make a list for Gold Kards
MK1 Scorpion deserves Top or A Tier!
No
@@theta38Wrong
You should put COC JAX AT C cause his SP2 DEALS LOTS OF DAMAGE he is like a support to have more damage
For me: Fujin and Joker 1 down. Sindel Main A. FireGod + both Scorpion 1, Kenshi: 1 down. On B: Cassie 2 down. KMJC 1 down. And MK11 Kabal still in B but in a better place. On C: Smoke +1 Up, Kitana, Goro, Takeda, Kano: Trash. And MK1 Scorpion +2 Up. Very cool list.
Mk 1 samsung is ,s tier
11:30 why MAND keep saying Takeda 😅 its Scorpion 🤣😂
MK1 Mileena is better than you think. She is a 1 man army as a fighter
The best diamond is mk 11 monk and mk 11 saurian
And worst is mk 11 sub-zero and mk 11 scorpion
Plz mand do video telling us what are most necessary gears epic and rares we must max
Have lot of level up equipment from krypt. What ymost important gearyto start
Thanks
Do gold tier next
Immediately clicked on this
I wonder whats the next diamond character we need more S tier list characters especially females since l think Regebrpis Mileena the Only s female character
14:27 MAND exposed as a metalhead lmao.
poor mk1 scorpion😂
remember guys, he is one of the strongest. trash only for MAND
Trash for me too so it's 2
@ did you max him out?
i always use him with FX
Make a video on talents for this update
It's kinda sad that if you delete all characters from B,C and D categories, no one will notice any differences because no one play them. NRS need to rebalance characters.
No way you've just put BD Kabal and Tremor in the same team. Tremor is trash, while Kabal has sneak attacks.

Assassin Scarlett in B-tier is 💀, she can literally melt teams in DOT-team.
Spawn in A is ☠☠
I still think MK11 Jade is top A/bottom S. It is easy to give her Diamond-level stats with easily obtainable equipment (e.g., 2 health pieces + Wrath Hammer). BD Kano, Ronin Takeda, and Assassin Kitana are complete trash. I agree with the rest.
Mk1 scorpion crazy he A and Mk1 smoke better than everyone on list should be b his top fav characters because his funny
Bro put mk1 scorpion in trash funniest thing have ever seen 😅😅😅
Ah yes, MK1 Scorpion at trash tier, as expected...
Mand fujin is bugged😢😢😢
I don't hate mk11 jade anymore..lol😂😂
Hell yes finally
Klassic reptile is a A tier character
Mk1 scorpion 😭
Kenshi mk 1 is one off the top!
Mk 1 scorpion is good i think! For me is A
I think MK1 Takeda deserves Mid B😢
7/10 tier list
Why do you always call mk1 scorpion "mk1 takeda" ??
Scorpion MK11 the best diamond in the game
Damn finally
These tier lists r getting redundant now. Why do we need this so often, 2 characters added, new tier list (which is basically the old one.
I do that once per year
He did the last one at the beginning of last year
@CRACKERJACK01 really? It felt like recent. Ok my bad then.
Mk11 scorpion the Only 10/10 character in the game the worst rate in that S tier list is 9 mk11 fujiin
Kenshi mk1 as A, while Smoke as C. So funny, but so wrong. Scorp MK1 as Trash. Its like an only for fun video)
