Wow. That was nice of you.

Listen dude, I don't doubt you can beat me with Reptile, I'm simply saying that won many local tournaments, etc... using Reptile, with many people making fun of me. Now, I never went to any national tournaments or anything, but to be honest, I don't care very much what you think, etc...

Yeah, I'm a noob to the forum, but trust me, I'm not a noob to Mortal Kombat. The fact that you feel you have insult me like that or tell me you could beat me "50:00" is completely childish.

I'm trying to add my $0.02, and if you don't like it, fine, criticize it, but don't act like a little kid whos only occupation in life is sitting on the internet and playing Mortal Kombat and who's only source of self-esteem is putting people down.

And if you are German (not just saying that)

Iss meine Scheiße.

[quote]And by the way, even with a 120 or worser ping I am sure to beat your Reptile 50:00 in MK2...
If you wanna play against me and show me how good Reptile is (LOL) then send me a message, we can play via Kaillera on MAME.
I am so sure because I know that only a noob can say such a shit hahah =)

Cmeth, you have said, and now defined that you don't know much about high level UMK3 play. To say Kabal isn't top tier in UMK3 is erroneous, and I think you would argue with a sign post.

Again, clearly, and anyone will back me up on it, Kabal is the best character in UMK3 hands down. Anyone saying the contrary is not versed enough in UMK3 to even begin to pose a legit argument. The very fact that you are so cautious about being spun is going to be your downfall. You cannot rush down Kabal. If you run in, and block expecting a spin, then he can run jab you (something you've probably never experienced) and the moment you release block you're going to get spun, and if you never do, you'll get run jabbed to death. I'm not saying it's impossible to beat Kabal, but that is the reason he's top tier. Effectiveness::effort ratio.

Queve, about your Neo comment, that is funny, I am easily 10 times the player he is, he'll make up all kinds of excuses and what not, like controller issues, or lag AND controller issues online, but the fact of the matter is, I played him online and beat him 13 to 2, and all he used was Nightwolf and Kabal, while I random selected. Also, my friend the Prophet beat him down in MKT at NEC4. Neo is definitely the best MKDA player there is (and mostly because of lack on interest), but UMK3, he is way out of his league, I don't think he was ever a really good player at it in all honesty, he didn't seem to have the natural ability. He just goes by what he hears and doesn't fully understand what application is.

Sonya's unpunishable sweep, range and damage of her leg grag, fast HK, good uppercut, and to a lesser extent easy/fast projectile make her top tier. Her leg grab has a half screen reach distance, while Johnny Cage's low blow you have to be stepping on the foot of the other person to connect it, so I don't know where that "It only has a little more range than" thing came from.

Matt



LOL! Sorry, I did not knew. I do know he is very good in MKDA, thats why I said that, but I guess I can now use your name as an option to claim that what I say is true and that if there are any doubts, ask Mr. 2kung....

That was a very smart reply. smile

IM NOT TAKING SIDES!!!! All Im saying is, he managed to reply with out any insult and was mature on the subject.

Things you dont see around the forums anymore.

Welcome to the forums Vardlordahl! smile
Yeah, I know that some answer of that sort would come...
I am just sick of that phrases, isnt the easiest way to prove your Rep. is nummber 1 to actually play MK2 and show that he is nummber 1 lol?
Of course not, because he isnt, he is actually the worst.
Because of that fact you dont accept a fight, because you know that you cant do anything against Millena or Liu Kang vs REP... ect.
You try to play the smartass in writing some intelligently reply, i cant do that because my english is only basic. But I think you know what I mean.
The best way to prove that REP. is TOP TIER is to show it in fights.
Thats by the way is the source of such a Top Tier list.
Anything other writing shit like this is theory that isnt real.

But i dont no why I reply, because experienced enough MK2 players know that REP=TopTier is bullshit..
The same with Kabal:Not Top Tier by the way.

First off, I speak German fairly well, so if you want to post in German, go ahead. But I do understand that it's probably difficult for you to post in English i would have a hard time posting in Deutsch.

Second off, I'm not saying I'm number 1, or anything else. I'm simply saying my personal best has been with Reptile.

That is all. I am not challenging you, I do not think I can beat you, I honestly don't care. It's a video game I play in my free time. My life doesn't depend on it, neither does my self esteem. I'm not sure you could say this though...

I have been told there's no one out of *Chicago* who knows what high level MK is for that matter. I however believe that there is no one outside the US who truly knows what high level MK is. My friend Ninja Grinder and his friend Hanzo have said they are high level UMK3 players in their native South America, but when I am shown videos I get randper kombat matches, which I enjoy watching, but that is not high level play, and turning off throws because "It adds an element to the game play" in actuality it takes away from the game and it changes situations in the game to extreme levels, cross up throws to avoid uppercuts and what not. Very silly idea to remove throws. The one nation who could pose a threat would be Japan, and they really don't play it. I posted a few messages on a Japanese board because I was looking through my site referrals to my website www.darktemplarz.com, and I saw this Japanese link, and I went to it, looked through and found someone had a link to the combo videos, and I was surprised by this. I use Altavista translator to try and talk with them and someone actually replied in English and said "Your combo videos are considered a work of art here" and I asked if MK was as unpopular there as I heard, and they said some people play it, but if they did, it would be far more popular here as well.

I have been told that not even my playing ability was good enough to beat anyone from Chicago, but I did in fact beat the only two Chicago players on Kaillera if that means anything. So here if anyone would like to watch, is a bunch of matches with me and The Prophet from shoryuken.com, and he is a little better than I am so that would lead me to believe he is just as, if not more capable as I am at playing against "High leve" players.

http://www.darktemplarz.com/umk3matchvids/

For the record, UMK3, Kabal is the toppest of tier. Anyone who disagrees can play me on Mame to find out, and my Kabal is not even the best Kabal out there. Killer, did you mean it was BS that he was top tier, or wasn't?

Circumstantially, I happen to have come out on top there, the Prophet's Kabal is decent, but we are so close in ability that it's really a toss up a to who is going to win in any given situation. We play differently against eachother than we do against random gamers.

You should watch all the matches if you haven't. I'm also reuploading some older ones I forgot I took down.

I actually live in Chicago when I'm home from school and I grew up in CHicago. I won a couple MKII tournaments like 7 years ago at local arcades, but I'm definitely not "high-level" and I've never seen anyone who is. I guess I go to the wrong places

Interesting, the guys there talk about Nickel City and some tavern or something, they recently started getting together and playing again. You should try and get in contact with them and learn some stuff.

As for my Kung Lao, he's usually better than what was shown even in the videos, I messed up a lot, and also the Prophet knows my tricks. Lex's Kung Lao is pretty crazy. He freestyles all kinds of combos with him.

I used to go to nickel city every now and then - Maybe I'll take some rides over there this summer on the weekends!
@ KungBroken, no I mean that Kabal is not TOP TIER is bullshit of course.

By the way, do you really think there are no other High Level players execpt Chicago?
Common, I know that in the US MK is the most popular, but you can believe me that in many other nations there are MK players that play very well too...
Some really good MK2 playe that I know is from Belgium, another is from France, ect.
There is a relativly great german MK community ect.
I even played an Brazilian MK2 player that was surprisingly good.
So I dont think only in Chicago, USA there are HighLevel players.
And why by the way Chicago`?

Because Midway games is located in CHicago, and this is where Mortal Kombats are all developed. Growing up, Mortal Kombat was THE CRAZE in CHicago. I didn't know one person that didn't rush right out and buy MKI and MKII when they came out for home systems. People would line up outside stores 2 hours before they opened because the Mortal Kombat Games would sell out so fast.

Also, we get all the arcade games months before the rest of the USA does, and even earlier than the rest of the world. We have semi trucks driving around with Beta Versions of new MK games on arcade machines before they are even released (they had this for MK4 beta 6 weeks before it was released - they would drive to parks int eh city and suburbs, and for 3 hours you and friends could in the back of the semi and play MK4 for free as long as you filled out a survey of any glitches you found).

Hell, in 7th grade when we used to have those "career days" when professionals would come in and give speeches about their jobs to us young kids, Ed Boon visited with some other guys from Midway and I got to meet him. My best friend growing up's family was friends with Eddie(can't remember his last name right now) who played Liu Kang in MKI - MKIII (If you beat any of those games it will tell you his last name). I met him many times.

It's just kind of the proximity I think...
I see.
Maybe in Chicago there is the home of MK, but I am sure that there are skillfull players around the world, like in everthing, maybe in Chicago are the most because of the facts.
And about Reptile again, maybe I or you missunderstanded it, I have no problem that Reptile is your personnaly best Character and you do very well with him fighting. I personally like to play with Reptile too, thats not the point.

I just want to say that there in nearly no chance against a skillfull Millena/Liu Kang user to win with that Reptile.

lol Schweinehund

I cannot say for sure that there are no high level players outside the US, but it would seem like a good bet to me. The game's just not popular enough world wide.

And yeah, Reptile's got nothing on Mileena.

Baraka is low in MK2, and high in MKT. The blade spin puts him way over, it's 57% any time someone jumps.

Did you watch the match videos as well as the combo videos? The combovideos were not intended to demonstrate playing skill, but combo inventiveness. Something like 20 variations of Ermac 100% combos were found by us, and I was told by Chicago that if that was true, and all of Chicago players/Midway missed Ermac a single 100% combo, they would be very surprised.

MK2KungBroken Vs The Prophet UMK3 Match Videos

The Prophet is an amazing player, placed 2nd at NEC2 UMK3 tourny, at this point, against the same people, it would have come down to us in the finals. I was not as good as I am now and that was over 2 years ago. There was also a univeral issue with the sticks to all non University Pinball regulars. They were terrible.
