How To Improve At Blocking, Punishing & Escape Throws! - Mortal Kombat 1 

little kid was a G😹😹😹

I have a problem with holding block too much lol, not used to this system after tekken/marvel

That’s untrue

@@edxleeand then i accidentally input BF specials sometimes lol

Yea it's so weird

thanks doing gods work!

@@MadDoggGames you’re welcome

Welcome aboard!

Glad it was helpful!

Thank you very much!

I’m trying to understand what you’re saying can you dumb it down a little bit? Sorry for being stupid lol

Ok kylo ren

I’ve covered it in a separate video in the past in depth. It was really worth learning because of the counter measures. But now if you compare to the past, there isn’t a whole lots of benefits in trying to learn something so difficult.

@MadDoggGames Yea, I know about Flawless block across MK games. I was just conveying that more players should add it to their resume of defense. Yes, it's a difficult technique, but that's what practice is for. I catch myself doing it more now I'm aware that it does help. Thanks for the link!

bro cpu on very hard is almost impossible to me lmao

Very hard CPU isn’t exactly the best practice for a beginner as it is more of a timing your input kind of game as the CPU reads your inputs straight away and that’s why it counters you. It does teach you to keep your nerve and not to mash and deal with pressure but you can do better in actual practice mode where you can repeat drills and practice combos without the CPU beating you senseless. Beginners tend to panic or rush and enter their inputs quickly and mashing is not a good habit. For example, if you get knocked down and straight away hold delay wake up or try to do a surprise attack with wake up buttons, the CPU will already know and respond accordingly. There’s a certain sweet spot in terms of timing where you input buttons without the very hard CPU countering you. I’m a beginner too but I’ve had enough practice to where I delay my inputs so the CPU can’t counter me and I can actually play against them decently. I suggest playing on hard instead or just going into practice mode and do drills first before playing very hard.

Great idea!

You'll learn to love it

@@samislam6842 I didnt

I mean I just explained what it is in definition, i dont think i have to show everything right...

I don't know what education system you grew up in, but in my case if the words "how to" is mentioned, there is a proper example or a fine result shown. Chemistry, Biology, Physics, Math,..in English too. Heck, "how to" videos from other FG creators show examples or results. Anybody can make a video with footage and say "practice, practice, practice"@@MadDoggGames All theory, and nothing practical.

@@AllenJohn it’s not that deep lmao. I added Fuzzy Guard segment last min and was too lazy to make an actual clip calm down. It’s just a concept not a hard core in depth breakdown. This is to spread awareness, not a step by step video because that concept can be explain in further detail and can be it’s own video. Against many scenarios, and matchups. I just skimmed through it. Didn’t I do that in the rest of the video? Ps. Don’t you know the English language is vague sometimes? This is still a HOW TO VIDEO. It’s “HOW” you practice that makes a difference. Otherwise, how do the PROS improve so damn quickly? Because they know what to look for. It’s not just practice practice. Anyone can do that. This video DOES show you DRILLS that many aren’t aware of for learning how to improve defense quickly. I’ve been teaching MK for a long time now and you will be surprised that these “common sense” things are not applied as much. If you let people try to figure it out on their own, they will give up most of the time.

Fuzzy guard is one of the important guard techniques in Tekken (my FG of choice) @@MadDoggGames And, there is a 60 second video explaining the fuzzy guard for MK11 with an example on youtube. You couldn't show a successful fuzzy guard in this whole video? And used Johnny Cage and Kung Lao as an example for what? An unsuccessful fuzzy guard ? That is counterproductive. It was easier to learn on how to handle the "Johnny Cage/Kameo Kung Lao" hat pressure via a match between TGC Turkey vs Kevo (East Coast Throwdown 2023 - Mortal Kombat 1 Pro Kompetition | Day 1 Pools) than watching the short video on fuzzy guard. Timestamp 5:45:50 Any tom dick and harry can become teachers, but not all teachers are skilled to teach well. And don't use excuses as "English is Vague". When I questioned you, you started thinking and you mentioned "This is to spread awareness". The word "Awareness" is not vague, and it can be replaced with the word "Reminder". Either of those two words should have been mentioned in the title of the video instead of "how to blah blah blah blah". I am not judging your skills, other videos or your personality or anything about you. Just one section about this video. Consider this criticism. When someone write "How To" , it means "HOW TO" and not just spread awareness with no examples or results. Make you intentions known from the very beginning, so people like me don't have to waste our time on being made "aware".

I don’t know why you complaining about Johnny Cage when other characters have it much worse to deal with. Like Smokes options are all save and full screen. Ashrah as well and Raiden overhead

@@MadDoggGames not just Johnny. All 50/50 characters are cheap.
