Whether you hate his char or love him (like I do!), there’s no denying Bo'Rai is one of the strongest chares in MK. His Sumo stance is simply put DEADLY, his drunkin stance is quick and has great combos, and his weapon stance takes the best from both worlds heres a few pointers for those who want to dominate!
Sumo stance- This is a great stance! Take my word for it, yes it's hard to get the hang of but once you do... DAMN! Not only does it do tons of damage, but Bo moves faster in this stance then another. There’s one HUGE draw back, he hits he hits hard, but it takes forever to recover! An opponent can get in a painful combo it you throw a punch or kick at the wrong time. When in this stance get in a strong hit then fall back. Wait for your opponent to mess up then make him pay, and repeat. The best is his shove attack, (either X and forward or Y and foreword, I just do it without thinking now). It's quick and sends your opponent away.
Drunkin stance- One of my favs cause it’s so damn unique and It throws your opponent off. This stance has great combos that do lots of damage, however if you don't know the combos it's not that damaging, so study before you use it! Once you got it down you can be kickin your opponent ALL over the stage! While you could go offensive with this, I still fight more defensively, like with the sumo, but hit with hard combos instead. This stances biggest flaw is the fact it slows Bo's movement to a crawl
Weapon Stance- Simply put it's a combination of the first two. I like to use it when my backs up against a wall, well at least a wall of spikes!
Puke- This is a hard special move to pull off but is VERY helpful! The thing that makes this so tough is if the opponent is two close it doesn't effect him and leaves u open. If the opponent is too far he won't come near the stuff and side step it. THE best use for this is keeping your opponent at bay so you can escape out of a death trap or hit him with an earthquake.
Earthquake- see above, for one use. Another great use is to keep an overly defensive player from becoming a pain.
Monkey flips/belly slam thingy- These are both great moves to use every now and then to surprise your opponent. HOWEVER don't use them to much cause the flips are easy to block, and the belly slam doesn't do much damage.
Escaping death traps- Bo is at a slight disadvantage when backed up against a deathtrap. He has no moves like scorpion or raiden to escape, and is slow moving so can't quickly maneuver his why out like most others can. The best technique is go high on defensive and fight the enemy off with your weapon, or puke while your opponent is slipping/trying to avoid puke, GET THE HELL OUTTA THERE!
