Welcome to the Mortal Kombat: Shaolin Monks Game-play/Tier thread! Like the fighting games, I feel that Monks has the same potential to come up with some kick ass custom combos with each of the characters. With that said, you, the MkO community will be able to discuss and share new ideas like where/why each character should fall onto the Monks Tier list. This should be decided by how each character performs in the Solo, Koop, and versus modes to find out who is the best rounded character to use. With that said lets start the discussion. (Very special thanks to Versatile and Konqrr for starting the other awesome game-play and tier list threads of which I based mine off of)

UPDATES!!

[8/17/05] Hey guys!! Welcome, I know that Monks isnt even come out yet, but the demo did. I played it and I think that it is soo much fun. We already have 3 characters to start off the Tier list, thats if u guys wanna include Baraka, judging we cant play as him but we did get a good look at his style of fighting. It hasnt been confirmed yet but I have a good feeling u will be able to play as Baraka in atleast the versus mode, prolly not the adventure though. So with that said, has anyone found any kick ass combos yet?? Like whats the biggest combo uv done so far and whats the most exp us gotten from a combo, stuff like that. Iv already come up with what I think the tier list should be but if u have any opions about it and how u think it shold be, please post what u think, no1 will be flamed or disrespected for what they think, id hope. This is going to be so exciting!! IT HAS BEGUN!!! –Shang Tsung

[8/17/05] I updated it with some new unlockable things that can be found in the demo, they are kinda useless because u cant see them anyways but its cool to know when the game comes out. Im just gonna leave it up for now, but around the time the game comes out im gonna take it off because thats not really what this thread it about.

[8/18/05] It would be nice that if when you type out your combos use this key below. It can get cofusing somettimes when everyone is using a different key.

[9/23/05] Now that the game is out we can now really get this thread going, So i need u guys feedback on who u think should be in the top tier??

TIER LIST!!

#1
Liu Kang!


Why? – This is only based on what JoRdAnMaN says, so this is not final at all more like a filler for now until ppl reply. I feel that he is the best so far because he seems to be much faster then the other characters and his combos seem easier to pull off 10+ hits.

#2
Kung Lao!


Why? - This is only based on what JoRdAnMaN says, so this is not final at all more like a filler for now until ppl reply. I thinks hes number 2 because there are only 2 playable characters at the moment, so it would be kinda hard to prove that hes worse or better then Baraka. Anyways Kung Lao has some cool looking combos and useful special moves

#3
Baraka!


Why? - This is only based on what JoRdAnMaN says, so this is not final at all more like a filler for now until ppl reply. Hes number 3 because we cant play as him yet and only have a glimpse of him by fighting him. With this glimpse he looks like he could do some heavy damage with his wide ranged attacks and speed

Useful Combos –

Misc

Unlockables!

(How to view them? I have no idea, I dont think its possible in the demo)

1. In the first room of Goros lair, knock the skeleton off of the wall and you will unlock a Koncept art
2. When running across the pit to the left keep looking north-west, and you will see a Golden Dragon Koin, shoot your characters missile at it and you will unlock a Koncept art








Aww its the end of the thread, but this is only the bare beginning, please join me on this journey in unwrapping all of the game-play secrets and fun! Check back often for new updates. (Ps : Please remember that this isnt my thread, its OUR thread so if u have any feedback or anything that I could do to help it look better or just anything please tell me)

FIRST, Here's a good combo that I like to use with Liu Kang on the PS2 version!

hit square (3x), triangle (2x), jump and hit square (3x), circle , triangle, and R2.
It should be a 13 hit combo.

As of the Demo, Kung is #1. Teleport adds a lot of spacing options. Hat throw kills oni after the initial launcher; quick, dirty and effective. Some kung combos copied from my post in the faq.

Oni Death Combos: Kung Lao
Key:
q = quick attack
p = power attack
l = launch attack
j = jump
m = modifyer
t = throw
* = charge attack
^ = move(s) done in air

Note: m+t does no damage, at least in these juggles. It's meant to close space and look stylish, instead of just walking up. Meh.

q , q , m+l , m+p = practical
l , l , m+p = practical
q , q , m+l , m+q , ^ l ^ , l , l , p*
q , l , l , m+t , m+l, m+q , ^ q x 4 ^ , p
q , q , j , ^ l ^ , m+q , ^ l ^ , m+t , m+l , m+p

5. Kitana
6. Johnny Cage
7. Reptile
