RATE THE FATAL BLOWS: Mortal Kombat 1 Edition 

I mean his also has a beat to it, a 1, 2, and then three which if they all had would make them way better. Like cyrax does one thing then he's done, Stryker did 3

Police Brutality 😍🥰💗

@@fernygamer6985 ? They just had to stop resisting lmao

@@fernygamer6985”police brutality coming up”

On principle I can’t support Stryker since he 12 😂

he's shooting frame one just like a real cop

​@@Saintlike_0"SIR GET D- *BLAPBLAPBLAPBLAP*"

@@Saintlike_0 social commentary also man if i was up against anything from mk id either shit frame one or try and run

He wanted to shoot from the start, he was just waiting to be told to.

The "fuck your tendons" duo

Also add in the fact that when you start it he does a little dance and during that you can PARRY AN ATTACK to then hit your Fatal Blow

@@bubbon1573 Just for the meme, he got the International Love.

​@@donnycorn3086You put it down like new york city!

​@@H2OHydraulic(I never sleep!)

It’s so much better when “international love” plays with it too

I think it would actually be more brutal to look at if it was done without the X-ray. Legs are not meant to bend that way, and having a more realistic perspective might have a bigger impact. A lot of the other ones are way over the top, but most people can relate to a broken leg.

​@@fendelphiBro that isn't a broken leg that's a shattered leg💀💀 that shit is dust now😭

Yeah it's actually kinda satisfying to look at, I prefer his one to some of the more flashy ones.

Its pretty painful on basic life levels

Me too. I like his martial arts knowledge showing instead of just wailing on people.

Thought the same thing, kinda feel like they should have done 1 x-ray for Kameo and 2 for fighters, this way what happens with Shao doesn’t happen

They probably could have added a crunch sound

Yeah like show his axe head going into the neck and breaking it

Yeah, a bunch of them feel like there's an x-ray shot that is cut.

Slamming them down to the ground with the axe definitely shouldn't have been where the x-ray shot was, for sure.

I agree I like the unique x rays that aim for parts of the body that we don't see often

I like Darrius' because you can see the opponent limping away afterwards, dragging their leg which had the knee broken. Really cool touch.

I like Darrius's not only for the uniqueness of it, but for the relatability of a broken knee and the fact that it's one of the few supers that you could reasonably survive

I don't know if its just me, but I also like Darrius's because the hits just feel especially brutal. I don't know if its the sound or animation, but I always feel the brutality of the hits

I actually appreciate the choreography in Darrius', it's just a very well practiced beatdown. The movement from the knee to the gut to the leg-breaker is so smooth, too.

Kung Lao: "I am a Shaolin Warrior of great skill and descend from a lineage of honorable kombatants." Also Kung Lao: [Drags someone over a sawblade crotch first]

He escaped the jobber status and the bottom tier ranking. All it took was a debilitating disease.

​@@41tinman41and a winning personality

Must've just joined after mk9 or mk vs DC lmfao

Sadly now we have to deal with people hating us for being baraka mains, despite playing him before he was ever top tier :(

I don't really understand this complaint. Baraka has always been cool, just because the story doesn't make use of him doesn't take away from how cool he is as a character. In regards to top tier, does nobody remember Baraka in mk 11? Maybe not top tier, but he wasn't garbage. Now he's all over the story and really good in the meta so now everyone finally feels like he's worth a damn, just kinda strange after he was in the last game and pretty decent too

That's probably why people hated him in MK11 because he was such a missed opportunity. "He has time powers but he doesn't use them? What the fuck Netherrealm? This guy sucks!"

Yeah they made him the “sand guy” instead of utilizing the fact that he was basically a time god. Was so weird

And then the opponent is on the ground yelling out "NOOO" just makes it better for me 😂😂

For me it’s the thumbs up before he does the silly walk and kicks your shit in 🤣

All of this, while Pitbull's "International Love" is playing in the background 😂😂

Nice catch

​@@VeotheVillain His brutality is funny for this. Hope his other fatality can make it in the game later down the line.

@@realfromtherealreality4148 they honestly dropped the ball on Darrius’s fatality, worst one in the game, everything else is cool tho

A leg break is kinda unique too compared to mostly ribs or skulls getting broken.

I use Darrius/Johnny Cage and I love it because it connects so well. Like the enemy is trying to limp away and Johnny walks up to smash their face in the camera

He doesn't rip them off he dislocates them I'm pretty sure

He actually dislocates the arms, not rip them. He does that to Liu Kang in Mortal Kombat Scorpion's Revenge

@@JoaoLucasK they literally rip out of the sockets and the arms clearly are being ripped in two

@@21Handguns he doesn't you can see the silhouette of his skin, doesn't make much sense but he rips them off on the inside without the skin

@@NeonReaperMkVII still,logic still applies. Acting like just because he may not have ripped their arms means that it still isn't ridiculous regardless 🤓🤓🤓

Her XRay/Fatal has been waaay too similar the past three games. It weird to think her MK9 is the most unique imo

@@adiris8827the mk 9 x-ray is way too similar to jade in mk11, i would say her x-ray in mk11 is the best simply because of the bounce lol

And the target opening their eyes and realizing what's about to happen is a nice touch too. Their face just says "Aw, shit."

No one: Cyrax: 3-0, cry!

Yeah but compared to the others fatal blows by the kameo, it feel pale in the end

He rated Sektor higher than Darrius despite him literally only just don't the equivalent of a super. Aka shooting rockets.

Darrius has the best Kameo fatal blow in the game in my opinion! That frickin leg break! OUCH!!!

Because it wasn’t brutal in the sense that it was overly fatal I think. Easily the rating I disagree with the most.

Dude, anyone could do a darrius fatal blow in real life LMAO

He was always my main but but that’s true, a lot of people hate him Before

samee

I compare MK1 to MVC1 a lot

I mean, in a game called MORTAL KOMBAT, I'd be going for the head to.

I think u didn't get the joke@@coomcharger6105

I bet she did with liu kang too

she watched infinity war😋

There are some unique fatal blows in the story mode that have no X-ray after all. Scorpion will dislocate your arm when you fight IIRC.

"it's the show where the scores are made up and the points don't matter"

Instant win for the memes alone

What are you talking about? A long time to go thru menus? You literally only have to go to character select and pick the next characters… then you’re right back in and can immediately perform X-rays. If you think that takes a lot work then you must have never had a real job. Lucky if so

@@derekwhite4312 You ok dude? Rough day at work or something? I'm sorry for what you're going through right now but hopefully things will get better for you!

@@junglecackHe’s not wrong, man. Max does a lot more actually meaningful stuff, so praising him for this just feels demeaning. He enjoys what he does; treating it like he’s working in a business office is completely unnecessary. The editing and management deserves praise, but don’t glorify every menial thing he does. If he does something _remarkable,_ it means something to be thankful. Everyone who plays the game goes through the menus.

I absolutely loved Shujinko and Havik in deception so I was so fucking stoked to see them return.

Like he hits you upwards with the axe, then clashes with you in the air(kinda like his old upwards shoulder charge) and then maybe he grabs you and swings you towards the ground to then land on your ribs with the X-ray shot at the end. I really don't understand how anyone working on mk1 could see some of these xrays and think: "Meh, good enough", especially after comparing them to ones like Geras' or Raiden's, like if you're gonna deliver cool X-rays, don't just give them to some characters and then half-ass the rest you know?

I think keeping the launch into the air with no X-ray is good, but instead having him slam down into the opponent and having a face-down X-ray as the axe and his legs make contact and crush both their ribs with his stomp and their skull with the axe. It lacks the signature brutish strength that Shao has as is, like OP said.

@@scarymeunster9095 Ooo thhat sounds awesome too, it's a shame that the reduced the amount of x ray shots from the 3 in mk9 to just one, like specially with the cameo gimmick they could have kept it and made it so the cameo has 1 X-ray shot and the main would have 2. That way you could have Shao dash towards you after he launches you but this time he grabs your head and crushes it againts his to show just how strong he is, then as you land on the ground he would land and crush your ribs with his legs, or hell maybe the axe as you said

@@scarymeunster9095 Actually it think something more akin to your idea would be him throwing you upwards with the axe, then clashes with you and slams you into the ground and as he lands on you there could be 2 X-rays shots back to back, 1 of his legs crushing you ribs while he hasn't made contact with the axe yet, and the it pans to your face being shattered as soon as the axe hits you

it’s a good combo

I imagine it just isn’t enough to get a lot of good commentary going. Gameplay or major things like cinematic Fatalities or endings have a good bit to talk about, but the Fatal Blows are designed to be very compact and quick. There’s not much to go on besides what you see in the little choreography portion.

Torn groin for sure lol

"to prevent toxicity" I'm sorry what?

@@Arcademan09 remember how the finish then screen in mk11 was much longer than the one now, usually if I lost or a friend or even a youtuber the opponent would have enough time to t bag 10 times or more and then fatal

I don’t think Geras can actually open entire timelines at will, just points in a single one. Geras still needs the Hourglass to restart history in his 11 ending, so I imagine opening borders between them would take either that power as a Titan or something similar, since they’re the only ones who seem capable.
