Mortal Kombat X Official Gameplay Discussion Thread

Nah, it didn't rely on 50/50s as much and the Mix Ups were within the strings them selves or people used Frame Traps to open you up.

Then the 50/50s didn't launch to combo, most of them gave a hard knockdown or advantage on hit.
I liked it a lot better, i dont know why. Both games are awesome but mk9 was just so perfect to me. Dash blocking, combo dashing, and just felt faster, but then again i played Kabal and Johnny
 
MK9 was a lot funner for me too. I still play MKX daily, but my god if NRS ever had the balls to rerelease MK9 on current gen it'd be game over.
 
Re-release MK9 w/ a huge character balancing patch and a training mode similar to MKX.

It would be THE hypest fighter of 2015, hands down.
 
You mean "normalizing" patch.

There's no way in hell you could stop the terror that is Kabal with all those run cancels in MK9 unless you had the stamina bar into play.

I personally like MKX generally better since my main is much more faster (Sub-Zero). However I would play a current gen MK9 for some Kano again.

I'm a slut for raw overheads and Kano simple does not have one in MKX.

Kabal was fair later in the Meta though. still good, but it was guessing after getting hit, the same thing in MKX.
 
I'm glad I'm not the only one who doesn't care about kombat kard stats. My kombat card has Mileena's piercing border with the picture of Sindel screaming in Fujin's ear as the background, and my icon is a pink fireball. Long story short; it's effing cute.

I'm dying to get my hands on the Sonya border where she's blowing a kiss, I want it so bad :love:

You mean the character card? I think that her 3rd one so you need 100 wins. Pick her up. She's braindead easy to play with.

The comic book cards look so f#%kin crispy! I'm trying to get the Kotal, Sonya or Cassie one but the krypt slot machine is being a lame! I believe you have to spend 3,500 coins to get one. It takes forever to earn that much tho. Stupid game!
 
I am NOT good with combos. I pretty much only use special moves/uppercuts. Same in Injustice (MAIN ARES)

Same here.
While I'd love to have MK9 on current-gen, Sub-Zero being faster in MKX in the "Cryomancer" variation is fvcking GREAT!!!
I couldn't stand slow MK9 Sub-Zero and his Ground Ice got nerfed to shit, so that was 1 less move that I could use in combos.
Plus, the Ground Ice move was so damn slow on its own that a blind person could see it coming from a mile away.
 
I know the ice clone in Grand Master is godly, it freezes on touch, it blocks projectiles, it can be thrown or exploded but Cryomancer is awesome, the ice sword (D2) and the sword pop up (F122) are tools I can't sacrifice.
 
Grandmaster Sub-Zero is my main because the Ice Clone gives me so many options (like you stated [MENTION=17968]Cryo[/MENTION]), while also giving me another option to safely follow up with an Ice Ball, but yeah the quickness and Ice Weapons of Cryomancer is awesome.
I think that Cryomancer Subs D2 is 1 of the quickest in the game.
 
Am actually surprised nobody plays unbreakable. It is a very good defensive variation
Grandmaster is so much better. You have so many better options than Unbreakable, you can shatter the Ice Clone or throw the Ice Clone. You also have 44-48% no meter corner combos. Grandmaster is also very good in the corner.
 
I think it's pretty universally accepted that Unbreakable needs some buffs. I don't just mean here, but if you read TYM where the 'pros' hang out, it is one of the most complained about variations. It certainly lags well behind the other two.
 
As soon as I pass all my tests I'll start making a Sub-Zero video guide, at first it will be focused on Cryomancer only since it's the variation I main but I have some knowdledge on GM I can expand upon and then add it to the guide, and I don't have much to say about UB but I'll figure it out eventually.
