Ermac Thread - "We are Many, You are but One!"

basically now you can't do the 2,2 lift combo now ur stuck with either b1, 2 lift, 1 lift or 1,2 lift...plus the damage nerf is ridiculous 50% combos now range from 36 to 40... just stupid

if ANYONE can do 50% combo without xray its OP, i dont care what char you play, its OP.

40% is a great ballpark on meterless combo damage for a strong damage dealer (by which i mean stronger then 50% of the cast)

33-40% without jumpins is a decent range for anyone in fact.
 
Fighting style wise, Ermac is the sickest character MK has ever seen. His style is so brutalizing and relentless. It's almost vengeful ! Every move is full of fury. It's gonna take me a long time to learn him to the level that I want to. It's like I live in practice mode with him. Anyone who masters the ish out of Ermac is damn near unstoppable.
 
Before you got back I was a bit worried. Didn't know what would happen to the handful of character threads you're curator of lol.

lol, i had to come back... Rain thread needs me lol

Any good info you have (combo, tactics, tips, etc.) thats its is not in the original post, please post it now so i can take a look and add it.

I will re-test all the combos to edit the nerfed combos damage.

I hope I can update this thread, and Rep and Sub ones during this week.

Thanks. =)
 
Hey I created 2 really good looking combos today with Ermac, which don't do EXTREME damage but hey...too cool!
I think I've already seen the X-Ray combo somewhere, if am wrong it's my invention too lol

fjp; 12xxlift; short dash; b12f1; teleport; push = 38% 11 hits (Notorious_JIZ gave me the idea for this)
fjp; b34xxteleport; dash; 22xxlift; little dash; b2b1xxpush = 37%
fjp; b2(charged 75%)b1xxlift; jkxxteleport; 22xxXray = 62%

Fox when you update the thread you should also add this well known combo to the list:

fjp; b114xxlift; dash; fjkxxteleport; dash; 22xxpush = 48%

Yeah, they're very fun combos, Asodimazze. I do the the We Win combo you posted any chance I get. Very fun as well as the others. Definitely not your invention, but I don't think the Disoriented one has been posted here.

Oh well, I didn't see those combos anywhere, probably someone else got the same ideas xD
I appreciate that you like those :)
 
And the charged b2 one is the highest Ermac damage combo since the nerf which sucks because I think it used to do 65%. Still a lot of damage though. Makes people rage online hahahaha.
 
no meter combo
50% 14 Hits: Jp, B+1,1,4, Force Lift, Jump Kick, Force Port, Jump Kick, Force Port, D+1, Force Push


the same using 2 meter 55%

 
I've found it very, very hard to land the double Force Port online. I've landed that combo a few times, but it just seems like if there's ANY kind of lag it's pretty tough, let alone getting that D1 right after. Very nice payoff if you get it though.
 
UPDATED



Ill update it more during the week, i appreciate if you give me more combos to test, because im sure im missing some.

Thanks

So, I am kinda new to fighting games online and Ermac in general. The only combos that I can seem to land online is the Force Lift-Uppercut-Force Push (2?% damage) or Force Lift-Uppercut-Force Lift. Yea I know those are awful combos. But I am a noob although I am getting a little better each match.

I seem to have problems beating Scorpions and Sub-Zeros also.
But anyways how can I stop a Spear abuser? Because when I block it they hellfire or when I jump over it they teleport. Or when I teleport I somehow screw it up and get pounded and lose most of my health. And when the Spear does hit there's nothing I can do to get out of it. So is there anyway at all to stop a Scorpion that "spams" Spears and Teleport?
Sub-Zero don't get me started.

My online record is 13-38. At least 20 of those losses are to Scorpions (11) and Sub-Zeros (9). Although I am by no means awesome or good.

Scorpions are the easiest to defeat. If they spear, then you can wavedash, which is pretty much dashing while blocking. If you can, try jumping over the spear because that leaves them open even longer and you can avoid a hellfire. If they teleport and you block it, then that leaves them open for a combo.

Wow I actually beat one. It seems my problem is from timing, judgement calls, and making mistakes, like accidently teleporting when they are clearly blocking, don't ask how I managed to do it (lag?). But anyways Scorpions always seem to get the upper hand on me until now of course. Plus I have gotten better at facing Sub-Zeros(in general). Thanks. (BTW why is there people that have like a 500-60 record in the beginners room?)
