Re: TylerLantern's new Kitana Combo Videos

Holy cow. I wonder if he had threw an x ray in there what the damage would be. Possibly full health, but at least 75 to 80 percent.

I think this pretty much breaks kitana.

Except all three of those fan throws needed to be enhanced in order to make the combo work, so there would be no bar to make an x-ray. And since you can only attempt that type of combo when your bar is full, I wouldn't say it makes her broken.
 
Re: TylerLantern's new Kitana Combo Videos

Am I the only person who finds these combo videos really annoying? I admire his skill, yeh, but it's basically a self indulgent way of going "I have enough spare time to come up with these obscene combos that are just the same moves looped over and over and could never be pulled off in a real match - subscribe to my page!"

I dunno... I just don't like how it smacks of elitism. I main Kitana and can land a few 30-40% juggles and love other players doing the same, it's really fascinating to see how different people play the same characters, but I personally HATE fighting against someone who plays like the people in these vids. Where's the fun in spending the whole match in the air watching someone spam the same 3 moves?

Re: TylerLantern's new Kitana Combo Videos

I honestly do not like him. All he does is show kombos in pratice mode. He probably never uses them in a real fight so whats the point in them? The thing I like about these videos were the music. Did he put it in there or are they unlockables?
 
Re: TylerLantern's new Kitana Combo Videos

I don't know I enjoy watching them. It's not as hard as you think if you find the right links and he might be doing it just to show off. I have been doing alot of big combos that I would not normally attempt in a match because I like to play fair. This is crazy because its a midscreen combo though. Very cool
 
Re: TylerLantern's new Kitana Combo Videos

Glad to see I'm not the only one that sees that he isn't a godly MK player. I'm sure I could come up with some damaging combos that use my whole bar but even if you could pull off those combo's you'd look like a spammer and a dick. Doing one combo over and over.

I like to find some 8-10 hit 30-40%'s. Usually easier to land and pull off. And a very comfortable combo for my X-ray just so I can guarantee that it connects without wasting it.

I do like seeing the other kind of combo vids that are like look at this regular combo I found that doesn't use enhanced and x-rays. Like they can possibly be done online if the first few hits connect. But these that are just trying to show the maximum damage possible. It's pointless and misleading like that Reptile infinite video (I know that wasn't it's intent) but it took so many people to point out the infinite was from unlimited enhanced to do
 
Re: TylerLantern's new Kitana Combo Videos

haha, this guy is incredible, he makes some very fun videos showing some crazy combos, he always discover some cool combinations !

Maybe some of these combos rarely can happen in a real competitive fight between two pro-players, but, his videos are entertainment anyway.
 
Re: TylerLantern's new Kitana Combo Videos

Usually I don't like to use this because it's been overused by too many people on the net, but regarding some of the comments on here...

Spoiler:

Besides, these videos are just for fun. Of course no one could do these combos in a real match, so no need to pop a blood vessel over them.
 
Re: TylerLantern's new Kitana Combo Videos

Cool to watch but the spam loop will most likely be nerfed eventually. I wouldn't consider this a valid combo.
 
Baraka vid:


Shame he deals so little damage. I actually think he has a great arsenal. Both for rushing and zoning. His quick lunge forward is my favorite move, it's faster than a ninja slide and covers crazy range. Also, he got this crazy unblockable move with his blades and a projectile. These 3 things combined makes him scary from anywhere on the screen. But midscreen/up close is where he shines best.


Mileena:


Mileena seems really strong and agile. Her combos are very easy to pull off and do a good ammount of damage. But the best thing is she can pull 35% meterless from anywhere on the screen. No need to get the opponent in the corner. Also, she has a few zoning and quick teleport tools which makes her a dangerous wench.

I might end up maining her.

Yeah, only thing I don't like about Sindel is that her combos deal so little damage. Outside of corner I can barely do 20 or 25% which is still ok but not enough to be a force imo. Though she makes up for it with her great zoning.

Another thing I find unfortunate is that her scream move can't be linked outside of the corner except if you waste 1 bar.

And speaking of enhanced moves, they don't do much damage compared to normal versions. I think it's best to keep meter for breakers and x-ray. Otherwise, her only decent enhanced move is the air fireball imo.

Yeah, Sindel's combos are not that good. After a lot of effort, I finally pulled off a 30% damage with her, with one EX move though. If you want to see it, check the Combo List thread.

And yeah, I don't like that her yell is too slow and can't be used in combos, at least not midscreen. But at least her projectiles are really fast and useful.

Cool combo man. Another thing I find weird about Sindel is her Leviate move. For some reason I have trouble moving around and shooting fireballs when I'm completely up in the air. Sometimes I do D, F, punch and nothing comes out. It's really weird.


Oh yeah I finally found who I'm going to main:



Stryker is so badass in this game. I really dig his juggles and mixup opportunities. He just feels right. Only thing I don't really like is his Grenades. They're a little too slow for me but whatever, it doesn't really matter anyway. But I wish he would throw C4 on the floor like D.Dark in SFex. But I guess that would make him way too good and give him even more mixups and combo options.

So yeah right now Stryker is my main and Milena, Reptile, Baraka are my subs. This might still change though. I still want to try out Cyrax, Nightwolf and some other characters.

Also saw this with Quan Chi: during his teleport stomp you can hold left and right to land on either side of the opponent, so if your opponent is anticipating it and blocks (in order to punish you after the block recovery), you can simply land on either side of him and be safe.



Kabal's Dash move can be canceled by pressing Back and Block.

You can use it to fake out opponents, or even better use it to advance quickly on opponents (or even in combos).
