Here we are with the Beginners Guide to Mortal Kombat 1! This video covers a lot of the aspects of the game and in part is designed for True Beginners, so if you are a bit more advanced or come from other fighting games feel free to use the time stamps to skip around to whatever makes sense for you! Make sure to check out the "Choose a Main" and "Choose a Kameo" Videos linked in the video description as well for complete coverage of the cast. Hope this video can help you out!

@nitr097 10 месяцев назад

The vid looks great, but i wouldn’t call it a “true beginners” guide anyone who hasnt played a fighting game doesnt know what “back 2” means, you should explain that thats when you press the left arrow to go left on the screen and press triangle or Y, ik that might seem obvious if youve played before but for absolute beginners things like that arent, i remember it was so hard to find tutorials at first because no one talked about the terms they were using to refer to a lot of things and i had no idea what they were talking about.

I don’t think they assumed. the community was very vocal for the last 3 years at least. coming from mkx to 11 was such a downgrade in depth, execution, and skill expression. It has nothing to do with age or maturity, rather the community’s taste.

I may have to send this to some friends of mind who also got this game. Some of the new mechanics and changes with old ones interest me.

@Guy-9 10 месяцев назад

The attack height stuff is extremely important since many people love to stick to a "default" defensive postion (usually crouch block), that they almost always go to when they want to play defensive so if you can figure this out and get around it, even if you can't get huge combos out of it, you will win. I had an opponent get salty at me because he was crouch blocking the whole time and so I just spammed overheads and grabs. As Reptile, you can't get a lot of big combos off his few overhead options, but damage is damage, so I won.
