Yoo I hope this was enough to meet your needs lmao. If not though, you should check out my Kameo Klass episodes on my channel. Got one for Motaro, Lao, and Sektor
Lmao thats sick dude. She's hard to get used to for the puppet combos cuz you have to do a lot of holding the kameo button and releasing it during specific animations but once you start to get used to it, you can do some absolutely insane stuff. Lemme know if you find any dope routes that I didnt show!
@@AwesomeBRINKS I did it with 2 smoke ports for like 440 I think but I really liked it for the reason the 1,2,2,4 opens up to be about to get the cutting room four. Usually hard to get opponents opened up for that combo to get into smoke ports
Yea exactly. He doesn;t really rely on kameos for good combo damage, so that makes him able to mess with a lot more kameo options. I love it. I've never tried Sonya with Smoke but I can imagine her giving him some neat extensions
Honestly I mostly look for the point that Smoke begins to twist and lift his foot off the ground during the BF3 before the last hit, thats when I call Janet. I haven't gotten it exactly consistent yet, but its around that point of the animation if that makes sense. Also I may have forgotten to mention it in the video, but you can mix and match the 2 different distance inputs for consecutive punches, and it'll just be whichever one you called first. And for the BF3 version, I call the close version, and then the next one I do the far input so that I can just hold forward to have Smoke walk alongside the juggle. If you end up walking too fast, you might have to hold block briefly before you input the F121+3 so that you don't walk underneath the opponent while Janet is hitting them
Thanks bro for the reply and extra tips, I also realised when smoke twists his foot is about the timing for calling janet but still cant get it consistently to connect makes me doubt how viable it would be online with input delay, if you do manage to find a way to better time janet to be more consistent please let me know bro.
@@dylannn2694 no problem! Yea I still suck at doing it consistently cuz there also seems to be a window where you can get the first punch to connect but the 2nd one drops. I do think it'll be possible to get consistent with it eventually, just by way of getting used to the rhythm of the inputs rather than reacting to a clear visual cue. But time will tell for sure. But I will for sure let you know if I do find a more definitive way of getting it!
I think it's probly a decent team. I wanna do a Smoke kameo tier list one of these days, and I'd probly put Tremor in B tier at the highest tbh. Full combo from armor is really good, but Smoke's armor move is not good, so it's not the most game-changing thing but still good. Some of the mix setups seem good with the ball, but theyre kinda specific to set up which makes them less useful. And then the launchers and crystal armor dont seem thaaaat great to me but theyre usable. I honestly havent labbed him a ton so maybe theres some stuff im missing but as of right now, I think hes just okay. Which is disappointing because Tremor is one of my favorite MKX characters and I really wanted Smoke/Tremor to be my team lol
Oh shit you're totally right, I didn't even think of that lol. Could probly get off like 3 or 4 of them depending on opponent. They can jump over Janet so its not totally free but you could definitely get away with it a couple times
@@ogdudu6872 Good point about using it to bait jump ins. And yea definitely the least useful, but its mostly because of how insanely strong her other tools are for Smoke lmao
Hmmmm, honestly I've started to become a Scorpion believer. But Sub, Lao and Sektor are also up there. Any kameo that lets him get full combos off of a F3>cancel>1114 is automatically super good, and being able to combo off of BF3 makes his pressure even stronger, and Scorpion let's you do both, while also being able to conserve meter for invisibility since you can extend from regular teleports with him. Janet also does both of these things, but not as well in the corner. I love Sektor, but if I'm being objective, I might have to say Scorpion gives Smoke the most
@@AwesomeBRINKS nice! Thanks for the reply my man! Ive been using smoke with scorpion indeed! And really satisfied with him as a kameo! Check out my latest smoke vids and let me know what u think! Soon gonna be uploading new vid tho
@@Riggs010 No problem! I try to reply to everyone that comments on my stuff! I love the discussions and talking about the game/pooling our knowledge and stuff so we can all learn together! And thats awesome! He's a really good kameo. And oooh i will for sure check out your Smoke vids!
That's dope of you to say, thank you! Could definitely make a full combo video with just this team. The combo potential from the puppet stance is actually insane.
Dope vid bro. Still gonna stick to sareena (I’m lazy) but i also hate how buying a non-playable assist character is 6 bucks lmao. Not worth it to me, especially considering I didn’t even buy quan chi. Idk kameos just never interest me all that much aside from maybe sektor. Cheers 🥂🤙🏻
Thanks! It was supposed to be just a chill off the cuff summary but this kameo ended up being so ridiculous that I needed to actually script my thoughts and organize the video like a normal Kameo Klass episode lmao. Totally understandable about Sareena though. As much as I make jokes shitting on her, she's still a solid kameo for Smoke. And my favorite part about kameos is how they let you kinda tailor your playstyle a certain way. $6 for a kameo does seem kinda high. I pre-ordered the premium version so I could get early access cuz I was too excited for this game so I always forget how expensive the individual pieces of content are for this game. Characters being like $8 seems more fair than $6 kameos or $10 announcer voices though lmao. But thats fair, Sektor is just way too cool. Cheers dude 🥂
Ehhh maybe. I can see them increasing the scaling a bit on the jump punch so it doesn't lead to such crazy meterless damage. Unsure about the puppet stuff though. The move is fairly difficult to string together long sequences so imo it should be doing a lot of damage. But maybe a couple of the moves could be altered a bit so you're not hitting such insanely high damage for just having Janet do the stand 4 kick over and over lol
That tends to be the nature of games with assists and such. I think prior to Janet tho, damage could be high but was mostly reasonable. At least in the sense that most characters needed to spend a lot of resources to reach really high damage. But Janet and Mavado just break that completely and let characters get really high meterless damage and its kind of insane lol
There will definitely be a more in depth Kameo Klass episode for Janet. Imma have to do some Twitter research though cuz I haven't seen any of the new tech since I got the footage for this lol
Insane combos. The professor of smoke.
Haha thank you. This kameo is wild. There are so many more variations of the puppet combos than just what I showed. Its ridiculous.
@@AwesomeBRINKS can't wait to see more sauce from you
finally some smoke tech😩 i've been dying for some tech bro
Yoo I hope this was enough to meet your needs lmao. If not though, you should check out my Kameo Klass episodes on my channel. Got one for Motaro, Lao, and Sektor
Am here still struggling with the smoke cancels and now this...looks like my weekend is gone be lit

As always, a pleasure to watch your videos, they are precise and educational. you do a great job. thank you brinks
Thank you!! I'm really glad to hear that!! Always a pleasure to see you leaving dope comments too, so I super appreciate it, dude!
Labbed 1,2,2,4, forward kameo into 1,2,3&4 🔥
Hell yea! What kinda damage did you get from it?
@@AwesomeBRINKS I did it with 2 smoke ports for like 440 I think but I really liked it for the reason the 1,2,2,4 opens up to be about to get the cutting room four. Usually hard to get opponents opened up for that combo to get into smoke ports
Made 2 people quit on combat league lol😂
@@drouxbag94 yea for sure. I see people getting hit by the low at the end of F1224 pretty often.
@@drouxbag94 lmaoooo its always hilarious to make people ragequit
Smoke does pretty good damage on his own, but i always used Sonya, Frost , or Sub zero.
Yea exactly. He doesn;t really rely on kameos for good combo damage, so that makes him able to mess with a lot more kameo options. I love it. I've never tried Sonya with Smoke but I can imagine her giving him some neat extensions
Any tips for timing janets punch after bf3 / viscous vapours?

What do you think about Smoke Tremor?

Also just a little more time to build meter by canceling down back 4
Using the Mime move
Oh shit you're totally right, I didn't even think of that lol. Could probly get off like 3 or 4 of them depending on opponent. They can jump over Janet so its not totally free but you could definitely get away with it a couple times
@@AwesomeBRINKS yea true but a forced jump in can be handy too, when they attempt to jump over you can anti air or up block
@@AwesomeBRINKS you’re right tho it is still probably one of the least useful tricks she has for smoke
@@ogdudu6872 Good point about using it to bait jump ins. And yea definitely the least useful, but its mostly because of how insanely strong her other tools are for Smoke lmao
Who do you thinks is the best kameo for smoke and why?
Hmmmm, honestly I've started to become a Scorpion believer. But Sub, Lao and Sektor are also up there.

she will get nerfed

damage in this game is dumb

But Janet and Mavado just break that completely and let characters get really high meterless damage and its kind of insane lol
