Mileena Thread - "Let Us Dance!"

Mileena is just awesome!
First i went along with Smoke, Sektor and Stryker as my mains, then a little Mileena here and there.
It's a funny story though why i picked Mileena now as my main...

I was facing a dude on ranked twice, i'Ve beaten the sh*t out of him with mileena twice and both times he rage quitted, but i was far away from skilled, just knew some n00b kombos, but i did win anyway.
After a few matches i faced this dude again and he picked mileena aswell, now he beated the f-ing sh*t outta me with awesome kombos and well timed counters, i was so impressed that i practiced a lot with this beasty hottie.
And next time i faced this guy (idk why i meet so many people very often again, not many players in EUROPE?), anyway it was a mirror match and this time he had not a bit of a chance, again he rage-quitted ;)

Then i decided to stay with her, cause i practiced a lot with this beast and i discover almost every day in online kombat new sh*t, and i love her 1st fatality, it's just awesome to eat the face off a player after beatin' the sh*t out of them.


But as allready mentioned, Kung Lao and Kano are the most difficult enemies for me as mileena, the others are not really a big problem.

There is one kano player here in europe i faced a lot of times, and you propably allready know what he does all the time, but with mileena i got the biggest chance to beat him so far.
I just keep a lot of distance and when he comes near i just throw a sai or two and i almost stay on D the whole match and the most hits i land are with D+4, if he spammes a lot of his butterknives, D and wait for tele-kick and pray to the elder-gods to land it. Most of the kano players always follow the same pattern and when you've figured it out you have a chance. Fighting against kano is always a pain in the a** and i always play dirty when my opponent picks kano.
But those matches are far away from balanced and they are very hard to win, but when you win and your opponent has some balls left he didn't spam, it is a pleasure to eat his f-ing face off!
 
Hi .....

This combo is one of the easiest to do, was me that suggested it

the trick lays in 2 options :

1) Instead of do separate the Ball Roll comand as B,D,4 .... do it this way

B,D+4 (push D and 4 together, at the same time)

or

2) use the "yoga flame" technique (lol, remember Dalshim ?) :

do a complete 180 move starting from B,D,F, +4, passing through the diagonals arrows ... work anyway for Mileena Roll Ball

Do one of these 2 options as soon as you push the second 4 comand in the combo, this way, you buffer-link the Roll Ball "inside" the 4 button , more or less.

Or go in training mode and train only 4, + ball roll until catch it correctly, if you do ball roll a split second after pushing 4 button, you do it all the time

Yeah, B+1,4,4,Ball Roll Uppercut works, 26% damage .... I suggest you to dominate complete these other 3 combos here too ..... are the easy BnB Mileena combos, and, do at least more or less 1/4 damage of 100% full bar, and, you can pull of anytime you hit the first move :

Ball Roll, U+4, B1+4, Uppercut - 24% damage
B+1,4,Ball Roll,B+1,4,Uppercut - 28% damage
U+4, U+4, B+1,4,4, Ball Roll, Uppercut - 32% damage

They are the basic BnB you should master to have a good BnB arsenal to use any time online, hehe ......

Simple, you know if you connect your first Ball Roll, or Boot Down, or Split Kick, you have options to follow next you a good combo.

XD :)

Thank you very much for your helpful advices.
I will start practicing/implementing them as soon as I can get some play time in... which, sadly, might be Monday night (while waiting for the Skarlet DLC) as I am terribly busy this weekend.
Thanks again!

PS: Yes, I do remember Dalshim!
 
Guys, I think Mileena was nerfed. Today i played a lot of matches online, and her combos do less damage. One of mi bnb combos (splits x2, b1,4, 4, roll, b1, 4 XRM) does 4 percent less damage (from 46 to 42), and a one meter bnb combo at the morning did 40% and now just 37%, WTF!!!!!!!

EDIT: my fault guys, she wasnt nerfed at all. I was a little confused in a match, thats all.

Anyways, im so happy for the Mileena fans. I think she is mid high or high tier, paired with Kitana and much better than the rest of females. I want to share all my tactics!

Mileena, is one of my fav female characters. I love her alternate outfit. Sonya wasn't a high tier huh? Well I can kick anyones ass with her.
 
How did you follow an uppercut with a Ball Roll? What's the technique?

you need to do a very quick uppercut after the overhead and the timing should be perfect for uppercut and ball roll
Note: if you kept holding the buttons d+2 Mileena will duck and roll ball won't connect
 
Hey Nameer, i just try and works well, but:

- It´s too damn hard to do, almost 1 of 15 (I mean, i try 15 times and i could did it just one time!)
- The damage is not so great, I mean other bnbs work so much better and are less difficult (sometimes with higher damage).

This is just my opinion, too. Nameer you must such a good player to pull off this combos time after time, but for me just dont work it.

Thanks for the combo, Im gonna keep trying.

I don't do this kombo in real game due to hardness and less damage kombo as you said

here is my kombo that i use in real match


Note: I forget to add JP when I recorded it,with JP the damage will be 38%
 
Pretty damn cool man, but sometimes I find a problem with the last part (JK, telekick and air sai), cause sometimes i miss the sai hit.
I promise I would put my BnB soon!
 
Been using her more and more and nothing is better when a character kicks ass AND is extremely fun to use. I can't do any of those combos with like teleport kicks and air sai blasts. The timing can be so precise. I prefer good old using splits then like back+1, 4 (I believe) and the ball roll to figure out some quick easy devastating combos that can catch your opponent off guard.
 

Very quickly made video using training mode recorder and holding iphone, it's straight ghetto, forgot to add some instent air sai blast combos oh well.

I don't know why people even use Mileena, I find her very easy to counter and easily comboed. And trust me i've played some really good Mileenas but I still manage to beat them. Also she's very slow with her combo starters.

Easy to counter but high unpredictability
