PS2...minus the HDD, lol.
I'm not sure how much I'll be playing. I'll be playing for sure, but I'm getting ready to go back to school, maybe as soon as winter quarter. T5 is top priority for me, though. I've been getting down with Initial D, as well, lol. Night of Fire bitches!!! WOOT!!

I'm not sure I'll be playing this much either.
SF3rd is out. That's all that matters. Train on PS2 and go for broke on Xbox live.

Sub Zero didn't suck in MKDA he was one of the best, depends how you use him.
Best Possible fighters for MKD with own moves *cough cough Shujinko
Sub Zero
Hotaru
Jade
Baraka
Quanchi (hoping)

Sub Zero wasn't as bad as some of the characters (like my fav, Li Mei who was really bad) but he certainly wasn't one of the best. There's no real variable way to use the characters in DA if you want to win against a good player. You had to basically stick to one formula, unfortunately Sub Zero's best formula wasn't nearly as good as the truly powerful characters like Bo Rai Cho.
You can be using Sub Zero as well as you can but all it would take is one puke. That's it, lost match for the Subbie player.

Truth took the words out of my mouth. The damage ratio iin Sub-Zero vs Bo Rai Cho was so retarded. Sub can't do anything except turtle up with Shotokan: 3,f+3 to space, and that move has wack ass priority sometimes. Sometimes it misses complete, other times the first hit connects and the second misses,etc. You also need to randomy cold shoulder and never get blocked. You also need to dragon d+2 perfectly without getting interuppted. There is just so much that has to be excecuted perfectly, and there is no room for error. Bo Rai Cho on the other hand can literally win with block damage. Bo can CONTINUOUSLY 3,2 you with no fear of eating anything except an ice shaker. If the puke hits the match is over. If 2 hits the match is over. If d+4 hits theres a 50/50 chance the match is over. If Bo Rai Cho gets any launcer on you the match is over. In a best of 10 fight Bo Rai Cho wins 10-0. I don't care how good you are with Sub there simply isn't a conceivable way to win that fight. It's so bad, in fact, that I literally only use Bo when i fight against other Bo players.

Someone earlier had asked how to use Pi Gua properly. Heres some MKDA Scorpy love homie.
1. Pi Gua: 3 - Arguably THE best move in Mortal Kombat deadly alliance. Hits mid,one of the top 3 fastest moves in the game, does good damage, and is 100% safe if you back dash cancel(tap back,back imediately after you input 3). Mix this up with Pi Gua: 4
2. Pi Gua: 4 - The best low attack move in Mortal Kombat deadly alliance. Hits low, guarantees hell fire on hit, does solid damage and is like 90% safe if you back dash cancel. Mix this up with Pi Gua: 3
3. Shove - Shove leads into a pretty much guaranteed hellfire unless your opponent knows how to properly escape it, and I doubt that, so you should abuse shove~hellfire like it's about to played out.
4. Hellfire - Remember when I said Pi Gua 3 was arguably the best move in the game? Here's it's competetion. Unblockable,Bo Rai Cho can't step out of it, guaranteed if Pi Gua: 4 hits, near guaranteed off of a shove, a guaranteed 50/50 mix up if at close or mid range since the burning animation leaves them immobile and it's pretty safe whether it hits or not.
That's it. That's all you need to be near unbeatable, and idiots wonder why we say MKDA is a stupid game. Anyway, being good with Scorpion is not the moves you use, but how well you use those 4 beauties(3,4,shove and hellfire).

Then it kinda makes ya think that it won't be AS good with Hotaru.
Since he doesn't have Hellfire, and the shove is completely gone.
I have much faith that Moi Fah will be an awesome style.

Oh no doubt. Without shove and hellfire Pi Gua wont be as good, but don't forget the gameplay is sped up, so it's still gonna be will AS LONG as the BDC is still in.

BDC still worked at E3...but that build felt so much slower than MKDA. I doubt Bo will be as good..still top notch though..
Ver, you should really quit talking shit to people
1. you never played MKL to my knowledge because of various excuses
2. noone has seen you play that i know of...plus you have no vids of you playing anyone..or any kombo vids online.
Im not doubting you have vast knowledge of MKDA or mk..you know what youre talking about strat wise..
Ive played many good mk players..my vids are online..I played at TIT5 against MKL..I played RayRokka.. ]ombat ..M4C and other people at E3..
you gotta earn respect bro..not push it on people.
still your bro

I played him in Jersey, he was great, but I sucked.
he did play ReptileStyle and they were 1-1, both of them were really good in DA.
EDIT: and he also beat reptilestyle, Sub vs. Scorp, and had a great match against his reptile, I can say honestly that he can compete with the best.

Im not pushing respect on anybody. ReptileStyle and his friends Craig and Vin are all better than anybody you faced at TiT5 besides MKL, and I am too. This excuse you talk of between me and MKL was sort out a long time ago, so i haven't the slightest clue why you're bringing that up. I asked of MKL several times to come to the tournament I was holding at video game world, and he did not show. It is out of my hands if there were misunderstandings, but like I said I needed a ride, and I could of got one, but I am not traveling 45 mins away to some place ive never been to when we didn't even set a time or date especially when it would of been at a MAJOR inconvenience to person taking me there. I doubt if your mind set would be any different if you were a 15 year old without a liscence.
I've played Konqrr and several other players in the old school Mortal Kombats. I remember wanting to play you but you said you were sick of online MK and didn't want any part of it. If you still want to play I will go onto an internet connection and download MAME. If you have ZSNES i can play you in that too. If you doubt i can play MKDA just ask my boy Greg(ReptileStyle). We had match vids, but SST never put them up. Again, not my fault. I've seen your match vids, and I am sure you're good at MKDA and other MKs, but there is nothing that I viewed that impressed me in the least bit, but that's obviously because of MKD being a new experience and it being 40% done. I know u have skills.
So in summary, it was never my fault that no one has ever seen me play, but I have technically faced better players than you, but in a far less quantity. Cuz like I said, from what i've seen in vids. Greg,Vin,Craig>anyone you've ever faced except Bill and perhaps Ray. I beat all 3 of them, I am sure I can hang with you. Of course these questions will be answered when MKD. My black ass just needs to get some money quick.
Sorry if I can came off as being a bitch in this post or somethin, cuz u know u my homie and all, but I remember u saying something like this on MIRC, and I didn't think you were serious so I let it fly, but now you come here postin this shit and I kinda got ticked. Cuz Konqrr has just as little online vid credibility(oh wow his fuckin brother?) outside of combo vids(which mean nothing when it comes to fighting), but no one dogs him about it. So this kinda hit me in the heart.
Still your homie
Vers

BTW steve..gimmie ur aim. I lost it and ive been wanting to get in touch with you for a while. Long time to chat.

Don't mean to make this an MKDA thread, but how about dragon 4,b+2? Unless you use it all the time, hard to see it coming + you often get some wall damage out of it as well.
As for the version question, I'll probably be playing on PS2.

I will be, don't you worry.

I forgot about that move as well. That's a must use vs Bo too, but again, if it's blocked the match is over.

Edited for the sake of the thread.

To get back on topic, I heard you can CB while you are being juggled. Is this true?

Tekken blows
MK rules all.
And yes, unfortunately, Combos Breakers can be uses to break out of juggles.
Retarded isn't it?

My fault.
And yes, it seems that way. In the Gamers Day video that was released, I saw two characters that were sir juggled use the CB and it countered as if they were on the ground the whole time.

I won't say anything but this: Do not say things that will have some people get angry; it might end this thread if flames ensue.

bite your tongue
I know the problems expressed about Sub-Zero but he's always been my favourite character, I have to give him a big chance before moving onto higher-tier characters.
Looking forward to playing as Hotaru seeing what different strategies people will use as Hotaru who owned all with Scorpion, surely no MK:DA Pi Gua specialists with overlook it, despite differences between Hotaru and Scorpion.

Any other Scorpion fans have faith that Moi Fah will be awesome?
We haven't really seen much of it but I really have high hopes for it.
