There are a number of people on various MK sites who complain about the AI in UMK3 and MKT being too difficult, and honestly, it's not. The AI is incredibly easy to trick. For whatever reason, the most common complaint is vs Jade. In this thread, we will post videos of specific characters being used against other specific CPU controlled characters. For now here is a clip of an example:
Human Kabal Vs CPU Jade
We'll probably go through and make videos every now and then, but they will be full videos for single characters beating everyone using different combos and tactics, broken into clips in short videos. If anyone has immediate requests, post them.

Awesome, I look forward to these!
Was there a reason for the low punching right before the top spin when she was getting up?
One thing I would do also with Kabal is do the ground saw and take a jump kick. The saw would still hit them and I'd do the top spin off the ground for the combo. It wouldn't work in MKT though as the saw would disappear when hit.

Running in with the LP makes them sweep, so it's a free spin everytime.
The saw disappears in UMK3 as well when Kabal is hit.
There will be a lot more to come, keep your eyes peeled.

The easiest way to beat UMK3 on any difficult on any ladder is to use Sindels Scream over and over, the CPU always get catch by it, which is strange, because in MK3 it didnt work that well.
Another thing is, when the CPU has to stand up after an attack, you always can throw a projectile after them, because they always taking the hit.

That is strange because I've found that in MK3, the computer never blocks Cyrax's net or Sindel's scream up close. They are guaranteed hits in that game, but not so much in UMK3.

this is the easiest way
http://media.putfile.com/vscpu-tactics
works everytime, on any player, on any ladder
1st/2nd clips, can be done on anyone, with many players and usub, back JK, cpu throws projectile, slide, repeat, etc
3rd clip not able on female ninjas, but you can land and they will face the same way they threw the projectile for about 3 seconds, time to spin
4th clip, idk looks cool
5th clip, cpu = stupidity

Ok, I didnt mentioned that you have to use airfireballs with Sindel until the CPU uses RUN, then you can catch them all the time with the scream, after that you can choose to make a big combo or to catch them again with the scream when they are falling to the ground.
I made an example video, it isnt well performed, but it shows the concept.
Sindel Scream Trap VS CPU
The good thing about that tactic is, that it makes fun to beat the CPU like that and it goes very quick and its pretty easy to learn.
It works on everyone, at least I think so, beaten highest tower several times with that tactic with no round loose of course.

Yeah guys, this is all good stuff, remember, I already know every single way to beat the CPU lol. The point of this thread is to explore the differences with every character, and the multiple ways you can do it, making the game more fun to play vs the CPU, practicing anti air on moving attacking targets, setting up other combos, etc. This thread should turn out well.
I have tried nearly every single one of these "beat the CPU easy" tricks, and none of them work. Either it's because I don't obsessively play the game day in, day out, or the tricks don't straight up work for everybody. For example, I'm no good with Kabal or Scorpion (both of which examples have been used with conjunction with the CPU Jade on this board). However, I just found a way this morning to beat her with Cyrax... but it wasn't 100 fool proof. It took five tries to get the timing down and everything, and even then it wasn't perfect.
Just as the fact that each school of thought doesn't work for everybody, each method of playing the game doesn't work for anybody.
I assure you I can try that method with Kabal and end up deader than a doornail.

Naturally. The simple strategies don't work for you, so it must require obsessive playing of the game to work. It can't be that you just aren't good at the game, despite playing it as much as you say you have (which actually sounds like an obsessive amount in all honesty).
The CPU strategies may require a bit of thought every now and then but very very little. Just say what characters you are good with and see the easy way to beat Jade with them (because Jade is weak
).

for revision 1.2 preferably
jump back kick, avoid fireball, cpu runs in, hp,hp, hp,hp, pushes them back, run into them, combo off Hp stuns = big damage, but combo after Hp stun is blockable.
but not vs cpu
this thread is no fun, doesnt really teach how to do anything, anyway, still interesting, sort of, that free spin after run in Lp after combo is awesome, never knew about that.
later
note: Lp stun only for females ( except sheeva and sindel i think ) and run in combo must start with either hp or hk, i forget.

Kara jabs are fun indeed, run in, kara jab, block sweep, standing LK, they run in, LP, block sweep, standing LK, until they go for a punishable move. =) This will all be shown in one way or another.

The point of this thread is to enlighten. You can't disagree with learning.
Actually, it can be done. Otherwise the state of education in most countries wouldn't be as bad as it is.
What I'm saying, is you guys will keep saying that the CPU isn't tough, and I'd have to keep saying I think it is, at least with a couple of characters. It would be an endless cycle.

Stop posting in this thread then.
Thank you.
In other news, Konqrr suggested posting a clip immediately with a lesser character, like Mileena, vs the Triple Endurance. This a much bigger message.
Mileena vs Triple Endurance
Enjoy. I get hit a few times but it's stupid mistakes, nothing the CPU can take advantage of.

Classic Sub vs 3X Endurance
He's probably one of the hardest characters to beat it with but there are some tactics in here you can use with him. It was difficult to really make something interesting with him but he is so limited.

Kitana vs 3X Endurance
Kitana can be a lot of fun vs the CPU, good to practice anti air with.
