Yeah but you might as well use the EX hairball that actually does damage. The EX levitate is quite useless. Also, if you do a string of 2 air combos it will scale harder than just 1 EX hairball :( SO sad
@@TrueUnderDawgGaming it’s definitely possible without it, I think it might be string specific. It could be my timing but I can’t get air 1,1,4 to combo reliably without it. I agree about its use for block pressure though, it removes the delay before acting out of float cancel

I love Sindel because it seems like she doesnt actually use martial arts; its more like she just does intense yoga or aggressively dances and anyone who comes near her gets destroyed.
EX Levitate has faster recovery than regular. It's great for blockstrings/pressure. A regular levitate has a lengthy cool down before you can attack or move, but enhanced can allow you to throw out an attack instantly. Also 13 minus 5 would be 8, TUG
Shes balanced because shes not OP for free. you have to put in the time and the work. Also her kameo cancels are not safe so it takes alot of set up to really be able to do it in a real match especially if opponent already knows she can do it
I knew Mama Sindel would bring the heat in MK1. As a Sindel main, I haven't mastered kameo stealing and it is very hard to do in an actual fight online but that is the tradeoff for such a move. Inspire is used more often than the Kameo steal. I also think the combo does scale when you do an air attack into levitate. The best option is to do an air attack into an ex-hairball and then levitate. Empress Sindel is so fun and is not as OP as some people may have thought originally.
Her kameo stun move is very hard to use. The worst part is, projectile moves like from Sareena, Frost, Kano will still hit you after u stunned them, which sucks
Yeaaahh I agree. I wish they just gave her a more viable move other than those two kameo control moves. Then they gave her that weird back 3 that does like nothing
There is a big gap in her off the top string because I got matched against a Reiko who was Demi god and he kept flawless blocking the overhead part of that string very consistently. She's very fun to play as.
Super makes Sindel look overpowered, a 12+ hit combo that can show off both your character and skills is a really great feeling. I really need to get back into MK 1 after my trip back from Mexico, especially since the last time I played it was after I messed around with different kameos.
It was alright, a family business thing that took way too long to settle on with a lot of waiting doing nothing. Staying offline for the most part and just going out to the farming fields and small central plaza was a nice change of pace. @@ryanclarke6779
In your practice settings you can turn on "remember settings" and whatever settings you leave it on last will be how it is the next time you go in practice unless you change it
The problem with Mortal Kombat 1 is there are so many good characters. I have always liked Sindel but haven't gotten around to really learning some stuff with her. I certainly hope to soon.
I’m a sindel main and I don’t really use the steal kameo move unlike the negate breaker move…. Here’s a tip for some sindel move use either frost or sub zero to use the negate breaker you can still have enough time to combo to
Ex levitates main purpose is that it’s faster, back 2 has a major gap with pretty much everything but if you ex levitate it significantly reduced the gap if not removes it
the opponent just loses the kameo until you use it. I find it best not to gain their kameo but rather to take it away from them and then just beat them in a straight one on one. Nothing pisses off a Baraka player more then stealing Cyrax and never giving him back lol. It doesn't happen often and usually when I do pull it off I take some major damage in the process so i see it as more of a sacrifice move then anything I'll give up a round to take away their kameo for the rest of the game.
Honestly when I saw sindel get her gameplay revealed I was completely terrified that she'd be extremely overpowered and overbearing on the game as I thought fundamentally down to her kit she was broken but honestly she isn't too bad which makes me me happy she's certainly strong but I'm happy that our focus is right now seem to be on nursing Raiden and baraka cyrax rather than sindel as if she was OP I feek like shed be a nightmare to balance
They need to take “Queens Kommand” special move back and give her a Hair grab move. Hardly anyone will try to steal a Kameo, it’s just a waste of a special move tbh.
Everybody commenting shit like "skill issue" is coping. Most competitive players agree she's on the difficult site and has to work really hard to open people up
The video was really good! I was scared to play Sindel but im glad you broke her down for us! Can you do Kitana next? I don't like her in this game, and I don't know if im just bad with her, or if she just sucks
Well as a SINDEL main myself I think your wrong because going up against n scorpion, Smoke or Liu Kang (they like to use they Kameo a lot far away so it’s very beneficial
I just started labbing her a few days ago. I think she's definitely OP if you get sweaty with her. You gotta optimize her combos and learn sick ass setups or she's ass. She's got 2 fantastic armor breaking normals, great range, super safe, good damage, a restand, a meterless launcher, great zoning, plus kameo shenanigans.
@@DorkLord69 You can tell what's gonna be good in practice mode. Questions I usually ask are 1. Neutral. What is their effective range(s) and what's plus on block? 2. How much damage do they get off the moves you're most likely to get hits from? 3. What kind of set-ups can you end combos with? 4. Does this info inspire any kameo synergies for me?
@@DorkLord69 I like Sindel because she seems versitile. You can use Sub kameo to zone all day w/ armor. You can use Sonia and Scorpion get shit tons of damage each touch. She has great oki because f4 hits twice and stuffs most armor moves. Do this after a knockdown and hit them for a full combo. F1 BROKEN it's 3 hits so it also stuffs armor moves. It's also long range, it's pretty fast, special cancelable, and has a follow-up. This means on hit you can do scream and on block you can stagger. And since it's 3 hits, you have all day to confirm which is which. So rn I'm looking for ways to create frame traps that can't be armored through with F1 and I'm trying to find combo routes that give me at least 40% dmg into F4 on wake-up (making it safe w/ an ambush kameo) so they can get relaunched for another 40% combo and then I win.
I'd say Sindel is a pretty balanced fighter. They did give her all these OP specials, but she doesn't do that much damage. You just need to rush her down cause her OP specials are slow. But if you don't know anything about Sindel, well.......good luck lol
They’re actually not as Op as you think. The ability to stun your opponents kameo is rare because you can only do it on a really good hard read and almost all the Kameo’s come out fairly fast and because of how slow it is, you can catch her before she finishes the move, then also stealing the other opponents kameo is situational like Shujinko. Then her kameo inspire move is okay the speed increase doesn’t really do that much, like once you use your kameo twice in a combo you don’t get it a third, and then the EX version is also really slow. The only move I’ve found that gives her enough time to get it off without being punished is sub-zeros freeze, plus you have to use meter for it and again once the opponent sees you do it then they’re just not gonna break thus leading to a waste of meter and you need her meter to really get damage too. You could call it balance but compared to the other characters toolkits it’s they’re two wasteful moves.
@@ORIIHON Just a detail, but Sareena if you have inspire on you can actually use 3 times in a combo and it's pretty nice (any basic string, call Sareena, follow up by her levitate/EX air hairball into launch, catch them on the way down and scream. By the time scream is done Sareena is back full and you can call her twice again). Overall though I agree that those kameo control moves are mostly just nice to haves that are rarely used in game with maybe the exception of with Sub-Zero cause against some opponents it's quite safe to use from far with ice armor on and in the middle of a combo you can inspire after freeze and keep going.
@@ORIIHONand if you freeze your opponent with Sub-Zero kameo and do the meter burn one you would have have to drop the rest of the combo because you don’t get enough time to extend it since the start up frames is so much
Looks like the sleeping on combo has more push than the other options. This helps corner push and zoning even though it does less damage. Sacrifice damage for position?
I’m a casual player. I don’t do all the wild crazy long combo strings and stuff. I just play the game because it’s fun. And I will say Sindel is a lot of fun, even to us casuals. And the brutality she gets for Follicular Homicide (spelling?) is fun-she stabs a hole through the opponent with the last hit. And it has decent range so she’s easy to level up mastery in Invasions.
The ex version is basically instant and has like no recovery after the move starts so it’s just easier to not drop combos basically, its only worth it if you’re not good at the combos get (cuz they hard😭) or for pressure, but most of the time just a waste
Can I request one for Sub-Zero next? I main sub this game, and feel most comfortable with him in this game, but I need to have more optimal combos because with using all my meters I can only get a 33%.
The problem with this character is that their is top 5 characters that don’t need any kameo to be a good character. Everyone uses them and sinful is terrible against those characters.
Exactly! Like the only way sindel can get damage past like 30% is that you have to use at least 1 meter and one kameo move compared to other characters who can easily get 30 without meter or even just using 1 kameo move. Then plus her mix up isn’t even a mix up because of how slow her moves are. I think if they made it where you could cancel her F43 into her levitate then that would make her have a good way to open up the opponent.
Fatal blows do not all do the same damage. Baraka has the lowest fatal blow damage in the game with 32% (without bleed damage). With bleed damage yes! But if the opponent is low on health the bleed damage wont even take affect and in some cases you need it to close out the round, but hes still regardless.

@@TBxMASTERx the only use it has is for block pressure when people are trying to jab out of back 2 levitate. EX levitate jails on block
I’ve done that without ex, but I get what you mean 👍
@@TrueUnderDawgGaming it’s definitely possible without it, I think it might be string specific. It could be my timing but I can’t get air 1,1,4 to combo reliably without it. I agree about its use for block pressure though, it removes the delay before acting out of float cancel
if u use 114 during the combo at mid screen and levitate without the enhanced version u can get a j2 in there and end it with f1 into scream or df4 but u gotta levitate foward fast@@juiceman5818

Please keep in mind I have not tested this, I’m merely speculating
It does

Btw you actually can tell when she does EX who’s your queen. There’s an aura that glows around her. (The purple aura.)
What I found out about ex levitation is that you can do it twice in a combo but it has to be a certain way you start it
The high hairball eats other people's projectiles When you enhance it. The cartwheel is her armered move.
I agree about her hair being big more often.
Spamming hair balls is crazy

You can double levitate in the air, do levitate, ex air hair ball, cancel that into levitate again. Its a really fast input but easy with practice.
Laggy players make me lose sanity putting it in against wifi players
Sindel is my main girl and I am not gonna change her! I love her game style and I've learnt almost every possible combination!
“S tier mom”😂
u create your own air strings by using levitate and mixing the strings so i feel like it makes sense for her to only have 2
She’s my main rn so I’m glad im seeing this video
God-tier puns

Sindel main here. Overall pretty good, but wish she could open up better. Maybe i just need to learn .
