Once again, awesome videos man. It saddens me to see your threads not get the kind of attention they deserve. Watching this kind of tournament level play has been so helpful in trying to learn what works best with each character.

Didn't have enough time to watch them all, but I watched the Cyrax vs. Reptile match and that Cyrax bomb trap combo is ballin. I've been maining Cyrax online and have yet to beat a god damn Reptile so its good to at least see somebody do it. But I'm definitely gonna have to get that guys bomb trap combo down, the one I've been using does no where near that amount of damage. Although I feel like with the online lag it might not be very practical but I'll find out next time I get the chance to play online.

I'll try and watch the rest later.

Never seen high level Kano before these videos. He's better than I thought he'd be.

My sentiments exactly man. Have not had time to watch them all but I def will. Keen to see that Kano gameplay, I reckon he could be devastating if used properly.

Anyways my thanks and two thumbs up to the OP!

Thanks guys!

Anyway, it's nice to see Kano in the mix. So far I've been most impressed with Kung Lao, Cyrax and Reptile! I love that trick when Kung Lao uses the enhanced ground hat move and delays it for a few seconds!

Hey guys, from the tourney footage you've seen so far, who's your favorite MK tourney player?

Mine would be...

Dude, as far as I'm concerned this is now the only thread worth my time on MKO. I am trying my best to be active on the Strategy Zone but no one seems to give a shit about it.

As to your question, I also dig REO, but as a Reptile fan I love watching THTB. (I hope that is right)

I started a thread about tier list a while ago but I think soon we will be able to make more accurate comments about that.

Yes, THTB is correct and his Reptile is pure awesomeness!

I'm really looking forward to see how the tournaments play out and I expect to see more character diversity with each new tournament. Also, very excited about the tier lists. Tom Brady claims Sub-Zero to be the best, I have a feeling Raiden could be no.1, but I'm not really skilled or experienced enough to really know.

In my view Raiden is #1, Kung Lao is #2. There isn't a big difference between the two of them in terms of overall ability to win, but Raiden has the edge.

Also, lol at Tom being butthurt because he lost. Take it like a man.

He did apologize afterwards.

Tom's explanation on what happened & apology.

Amazing gameplay.


Horrible commentary. If we want to be taken seriously on a tournament level we need commentators that know the moves, and dont use street fighter terms.


SHORYUKEN.... NO BITCH!

And watching Tom cry was great. Seriously if your arrogant enough to put EMPIRE on your shirt, you deserve to get your ass kicked by a non-threatening quiet dude.

This is fucking great. I love watching people do these fucking crazy combos and learning them. 2 thumbs up OP, you deserve dragon points for this. I only watched a couple of Tom Brady and PerfectLegend before this. But these videos show some variety and potential some characters actually have. Great fuckin' find man, keep em' comin'.

^ Thanks!




Yeah, I wish they would stop using Street Fighter terms so much. One comment that really upset me was when a guy called Kung Lao a Rufus clone. WTF, Kung Lao was created way before Rufus, so please...
