I've had the game for about 3 days. I'm just focusing on one charactor right now so i can learn and train to pull of some good combos. Right now i'm working with raiden. I have worked on the challenge tower, practice mode, and tons of player matches. I've memorized each combo attack in the move list yet i still cant streamlessly put together immpressive combos. I know apart of it is my controller. However, i know if i just keep practicing i know i can work around it. Thus, the advice i need now is this: where can i go to get some idea on how to streamline combos. How to put them together. thx
 
Watch YouTube videos. PRACTICE PRACTICE PRACTICE!!! Ive mained Subby since the game came out and have him mastered but I still discover now combos. But if you have a problem try putting in a special move at the end of one regular combo right after the input. Some combos will only allow for the first two hits and then something, but for good Raiden combos you wont have to worry about that. Just keep discovering new things and experiment with things.

The BIGGEST tip I can give you is make your button inputs fluid. If you do that your almost guranteed to get the combo pulled off.

Hope this helped :)
 
Start with simple combos. The first character I learned to use was Liu Kang, not my favorite, but he's quite easy to play with. Trust me, you'll find at least 1 character that matches the way you play.
 
i say pick a character with a easy stun attack. so scorpion, sub zero, cyrax, kabal, quan chi, or rain

lulwut? It isn't the controller

But I say head over to the character's thread
 
Welcome to TRMK!

The first place to start is to know which moves start a combo. Look for attacks that launch an opponent in the air. stun, or can be cancelled to another move.

I'm not familiar with Raiden in particular, but this guide may help you get started.

 
I hate Raiden lol so I shouldn't help you but anyway just check out the character threads. Many members are willing to help you. Just not me......you Raiden user ;)

well i have a problem with my D pad. Some moves work better with the stick, other work better with the D pad, yet the D pad is my bigggest problem cause its teh older oxbox controller and its a well known issue.

And thx everyone else for you input :)
 
I don't play with Raiden, but he has the easiest corner combos

Try this:

JP, 3, 3, 4, 3, 3, 4, 3, 3, Superman

Easy Mileena combo that can set up bigger moves:
Teleport Kick-Ball Roll- Uppercut*/Neck bite-Split Kick-Neck Bite
* If you use UpperCut, that's the end of this combo.
