Few weeks ago I got beaten by a Baraka player while I was using Takeda. After the match he messaged me saying: Ez! I was going to reply trying to explain why he beat me so easily. But then I thought 🤔 He's a baraka player. His brain is dead. Poor guy... 😢
@@saeed7099 good luck because when you focus on fb I’ll be playing a different game (stealing my turn) mental stack on players who fb in mk can hurt most times cause you only focus on so much when you do such but I agree
@@TabiOwusu Meh, They are all pretty strong players. Sometimes you win or loose based off the "reads of the day". I play with some friends and we know all the tech. But winning or loosing match to match is just your reads in that set. XD It is fun. I dont like playing people who lack the tech.
heres a tip for liu kang players from a baraka main you can punish barakas forward with your 6 frame stand and i believe liu kang is the only character that can punish f3
@@Gruuzol420I mean it should’ve been known by most players that f3 is punishable but hey I just like to help and people still struggle with baraka months later if you have anything 6F on a character you beat baraka
So i wasnt tripping cause everytime i play against Baraka feels like i press anything i fuckin die, take hella chip, and block FOREVER, and armor feels irrelevant. And THAT MOVE still looks STUPID. HIS KNEE IS ABOVE HIS HIP HOW IS THAT A LOW
Even tho baraka is brain dead I wouldn’t recommend new players from picking him up. You gotta learn frames and spacing and how to actually play. You also gotta learn the full extent and values of strings but he mashes so you won’t learn difference cuz it’s all mix
It’s crazy how everytime I pick up a new fighting game I always end up picking like a bottom 5 character and stick with them but as soon as I picked ashrah as my main in this game because I liked the way she plays I’m the bad guy lol. I can’t even count the amount of times I win a match and dude gets on the mic and says I’m carried like bro I just thought she was cool chill out 😭
I feel you man. I was A Frost Main in 11 and it was rought out there vs the blessed characters like Fujin and Air Gas Kabal. MK 1 I liked Ashrah and people complain XD
Listen NRS games are for scrubs , do player who play mk play other games that aren’t considered scrubby ? Yes but some players just play the game because it’s easy and fighting games take a lot of brain power (most characters) especially finding tech so we and others play mk cause you don’t have to sweat so hard against randoms, the skill gap in other games compared to mk is laughable. I say all this to say, who cares if someone thinks a character is scrubby have fun but the idea of this video to let you what is “considered” carried in fighting game terms
“Characters” we can say that nowadays fighting games are main focus so they become easier so more people buy and play not just for online experience but just to spend money. Overall we can say that other fighting games are more difficult and challenging. Tekken, SF, DOA Skullgirls , GG, but again those who come from the older version will say that the newer ones are trash and for scrubs. Regardless NRS is considered a party game and not even taken serious. I’ve talked to plenty pro players in other scenes and they don’t respect us or yall
Complete opposite of carried is Honest and just because you can’t cancel doesn’t make him hard to use. What makes a character hard is how you have to open your opponent up
As a baraka player, baraka is probably the most brainless character in the game. Maybe behind johnny. But definitely doesnt take much thought compared to other characters.
I main Baraka, and he is probably the most braindead if not top 5 most braindead character in the game, especially paired with Kano, but lets not get it twisted, this game is braindead pressure the video game. All characters have braindead pressure if you pair them with a Kameo that helps with their pressure. Baraka just has a limited number of strings, that just so happen to all be good and mostly safe, so its way easier to apply that pressure than most, so ur point still stands for sure.
You can’t down poke into full combo with Shao. His second hit can always be blocked even if the down poke lands. Every character is not awarded the luxury of a down poke combo starter
When she lands her down 1 she can instantly stand 1 jab into a full combo. Every Milenna I’ve faced does this constantly. Down poke into full combo is her go to. Do you not know this?
Honestly if Baraka was ever not braindead I feel like it would be a failure of character design. Man should always be the unga-bunga character on the roster IMO.
@@gummyboots nah he’s not unga bunga, that term is correlated with random he’s more low risk high reward that’s all and his design is fine…. Again I’m just saying what brain dead is
@@jayzbottomlip I disagree, unga bunga is cartoonish interpretation of caveman speak, it's savage and dumb, like cave men. Braindead play, pure wild id and careless instinct. Typically characters are able to play unga because they have low risk, they can beat you with their caveman clubs because they know you often have to respect it.
@@gummyboots you just says what I said but trying to use unga bunga. Only character I can think of that’s close to that is kabal mk11 and shao mk11 other than that eh that term fits players not character design. Nice try tho
Ive been consistently saying Baraka is the most braindead character in the game and people argue me. But look I'm vindicated here, it's not even negative thing to say, it's just facts. You don't have to think with Baraka you just throw the same 3 sequences no matter what.
All this because my channel is about fighting game terms and understanding them, funny cause I know how to beat baraka and never once thought of tweedy, talking with other high level players about terms scrubs over use and this one came up and what character correlate with the term. I literally play kombat league to try stuff out. I play other games at the highest level idc about mk or NRS and people like you the main reason mk is a dying breed that nobody wants to play
Funny, one simple click on your profile shows you literally commenting on this guy's previous videos (flowchart video) asking a whole bunch of questions & advice. Now you choose to comment pathetic passive aggresive-ness. Lol its weirdos like you that really make this game insufferable at times.

Sikander taught me the power of flawless blocking. You do that sht all you want homie. I’ll worry about the plus frames later
@@saeed7099 good luck because when you focus on fb I’ll be playing a different game (stealing my turn) mental stack on players who fb in mk can hurt most times cause you only focus on so much when you do such but I agree
@@jayzbottomlipsikander not even at your level and he wants to take tips from him instead of you is ignorance
@@TabiOwusu Meh, They are all pretty strong players. Sometimes you win or loose based off the "reads of the day". I play with some friends and we know all the tech. But winning or loosing match to match is just your reads in that set. XD It is fun. I dont like playing people who lack the tech.
@@TabiOwusu that’s not what the word means but…. Sure lol whatever you think or say matters to me
Flawless blocking doesn't always eliminate plus frames. You have to take the time to learn the block adv for both scenarios.
heres a tip for liu kang players from a baraka main you can punish barakas forward with your 6 frame stand and i believe liu kang is the only character that can punish f3
And Lao since he has a 6f jab too
Why would you help them counter you?
@@Gruuzol420I mean it should’ve been known by most players that f3 is punishable but hey I just like to help and people still struggle with baraka months later if you have anything 6F on a character you beat baraka
Doesn't matter if he uses Stryker or kano behind it
Thanks JayZ for improving my trashtalk 🙏
😭😭😭
I hate how Barakas b3 looks. Still a year in and if I’m on auto pilot I stand block that shit on instinct. It should be overhead-mid.
STG HES LITERALLY LIFTING HIS KNEE OVER HIS HIP HOW IS THAT A LOW
Yeah im learning havik, gonna armor through all that
Barakas 444 combo breaks through meterless havik hyperarmor
@@reskriptor7779 yeah no i'm gonna armor on every baraka input
I’m glad I’m not the only one who says this character is brain dead.
I really like this video
So i wasnt tripping cause everytime i play against
Baraka feels like i press anything i fuckin die, take hella chip, and block FOREVER, and armor feels irrelevant.
And THAT MOVE still looks STUPID.
HIS KNEE IS ABOVE HIS HIP HOW IS THAT A LOW
the knee hits mid, but the second hit is him stomping on your foot
What are your thoughts on Smoke? I personally feel like he requires a lot of effort to play at a high level.
Even tho baraka is brain dead I wouldn’t recommend new players from picking him up. You gotta learn frames and spacing and how to actually play. You also gotta learn the full extent and values of strings but he mashes so you won’t learn difference cuz it’s all mix

Mk encourage scrub play, so most plays who play this game are casuals who cry about everything. Just ignore it and realize you getting better
I feel you man. I was A Frost Main in 11 and it was rought out there vs the blessed characters like Fujin and Air Gas Kabal. MK 1 I liked Ashrah and people complain XD
I don't know if this should keep me away from the character or inspire me to try him out. lol
Nitara scrub here btw

@@jayzbottomlip seems every fighting game community thinks their game is for scrubs.
@@gummyboots it's like the FGC equivalent of "the more I know, the more I realize I know nothing"

3:07 im also not sure but i think liu kang can do it as well with d1 into bf4
Would Ermac be the complete opposite of carried. Hard to use but high reward?
Complete opposite of carried is Honest and just because you can’t cancel doesn’t make him hard to use. What makes a character hard is how you have to open your opponent up
As a baraka player, baraka is probably the most brainless character in the game. Maybe behind johnny. But definitely doesnt take much thought compared to other characters.
baraka = brain dead but johnny it’s more like auto pilot imo
Also a Baraka player, definitely braindead but for me Liu Kang is far above everyone.
Nitara is more brain dead
@@Gruuzol420
Agreed
So besides spacing, armor is probably the best option to curb some baraka pressure?
Yes also creating a mind game that plays off his d1
Wish scorp had this pressure
I main Baraka, and he is probably the most braindead if not top 5 most braindead character in the game, especially paired with Kano, but lets not get it twisted, this game is braindead pressure the video game.

4:55 what do u mean sareena kameo what can she do that's special
shes stops kanos and baraka
Invincible wake up
Love the content man but you need to turn down the sfx or something its hard to hear you over Baraka beating ts outta Sub.
Bro I hate this about this game so much!! No thought behind a move just be safe by a kameo!!!
Can’t beat it might as well use it
Milenna Home lander and slew of other characters can down poke into full combo. Cheap bs!
Yeah it’s pretty strong. Gotta be careful
I do that with Shao DB3 sometimes, it's a gamble
You can’t down poke into full combo with Shao. His second hit can always be blocked even if the down poke lands. Every character is not awarded the luxury of a down poke combo starter
@@Blackpillscape isn't that the same for all characters? Explain how Mileena gets a full combo after a poke
When she lands her down 1 she can instantly stand 1 jab into a full combo. Every Milenna I’ve faced does this constantly. Down poke into full combo is her go to. Do you not know this?
Honestly if Baraka was ever not braindead I feel like it would be a failure of character design.

Liu Kang is a character that carries players also.🤦🏾
Yesss he does

You don't have to think with Baraka you just throw the same 3 sequences no matter what.
Most of the roster is brain dead brodie, baraka is simply one of the most braindead
Nah, kameos can become brain dead or promote it but nah I don’t agree but I see what you mean
Smoke is a brain dead character
If you play like this delete the game !
Lmao
All this because of 1 loss on KL to Tweedy...
Makes sense, tweedy admits to playing low effort, brain dead characters
All this because my channel is about fighting game terms and understanding them, funny cause I know how to beat baraka and never once thought of tweedy, talking with other high level players about terms scrubs over use and this one came up and what character correlate with the term.
