MK9 was the sweet spot, MKX improved upon MK9 and I personally like MKX the best, but MK11 just overhauled the mechanics too much, combos kinda suck, and fights feel slow. MK11 lacks the speed and intensity of previous games.
Small arms? He was like the best character when it comes to his neutral The dude was the footsies master U have to be confusing sektor with someone else
It depends on the character: Sektor D1 is -15 on block, -9 on crouching opponent hit, -7 on standing opponent hit (!!!), and Smoke D1 is -13 on block, -1 on crouching opponent hit, +1 on standing opponent hit. D3s are generally better, Sektor D3 is -8 on block, +9 on crouching opponent hit, +2 on standing opponent hit. Smoke D3 is -7 on block, +10 on crouching opponent hit, +3 on standing opponent hit. By the time of this tournament players knew how plus/minus things were, that's why you can see Gross (Sektor) doesn't use any pokes in this clip, while Waffles uses a bunch of D3s.
Smoke got free d1s on block in this game because his smoke bomb cancel would catch you trying to push a button every time! His counter poke and poke game was ridiculous but of his smokebomb and ridiculously fast b2 overhead
Most of the things that are broken in mk9 are kept safe from the abuse of noobs behind a fairly large wall of execution. Like that smoke reset is not easy to pull off. Only true smoke mains are getting that every time.
Smoke was the best. I can't believe they still haven't bought him back yet (I don't count Triborg)
Thank you for not counting triborg as smoke
Why though he was so good? Not to mention he fit the game perfectly, mk community is so ungrateful it’s laughable
@@yourmometer WE MISS NINJA SMOKE
He’s back in mk1
Waffles and smokex will always be the goats
Dude yes, otg resets all day
My jaw literally dropped watching that comeback holy
The best kind of matches are the ones where the crowd is so damn loud.
Made my damn heart beat fast 😂 nothing will ever touch mk9 imo.
I didn't even know you could land a hit after a teleport punch wth
only in corner.
no way, they're playing at the backroom!!!
We need the Living Forest in MK11
Please remake this game new net code
you can already play this game with steam's remote play. It's much better with the default online netcode of MK9

@@dzunglong4034 Or just play with parsec
*Teleports behind you* Nothing personal kid
Where there's Smoke there's Fire
Geez when mk was fun

@@user-du2bd5cb8z Literally the best MK to date but okay buddy
Gross was my favorite sector player back then. He was so smart even with sectors small t Rex arms lol
Small arms? He was like the best character when it comes to his neutral
The dude was the footsies master
U have to be confusing sektor with someone else
@@savagepat4987 yeah footsies. 1, 2 hits barely had any range. And sektor and nightwolf were my mains. Yes small arms.
One HP and a Smoke’s pressure game
Only a true master
Fuck a new mk game just remaster this one and triple peoples healthbars so you dont get instakilled by someone experienced
Damn that teliport has like no recovery on wiff
Pls someone can tell me how minus are pokes IN THIS GAME? i guess they didnt know frame data, they use them as theyre plus (or 0)

D1s were almost always punishable on block and minus on hit, D3s and D4s were used to poke, which dealt almost no damage.
Smoke got free d1s on block in this game because his smoke bomb cancel would catch you trying to push a button every time! His counter poke and poke game was ridiculous but of his smokebomb and ridiculously fast b2 overhead
Damn man. I MISS THIS GAME!
where does the phrase “only a true master” come from
I think it comes from 16-bits commentary as he often said that. At least he’s the one who made it stick in the MK community.
What happen to the legends
The brokenness of MK9 just added to the overall fun
Is it broken if everything is broken?:x
Because MK11 is so not-broken amirite
Most of the things that are broken in mk9 are kept safe from the abuse of noobs behind a fairly large wall of execution. Like that smoke reset is not easy to pull off. Only true smoke mains are getting that every time.
Bruh plz smoke for mk12
Mk11 is ass
Ha ha ha. He mashed D2 and lost because of it. I guess 9 and 11 aren't that different.
he definitely didn’t mash brotha
@@fendii6395 My bad, he just rapidly pressed the button with unnecessary force and without thinking.
He literally D2’d once the entire match and lost from guessing a 50/50 wrong. If you’re a noob just say that
@@ryanturner5703 Exactly what I said. Great minds think alike bro.
PS: don't worry, I won't tell.
