    I kind of wondered how variations would work “in lore”. Like, would Scorpion just wake up one day and be like “This feels like an Inferno kind of day!”

    i'll always wish that tremor had at least one variation that didn't change his look at all, both crystalline and metallic entirely change his main colour/material and aftershock removed his mask, which is one of the coolest parts of his design, and i hate it when characters get unmasked, let alone when it's mandatory. makes me want to run him variationless even though it removes some variety since his base look is so cool

      @@sophiegrey9576 They aren't busted by any means, not at least nowadays. Nowadays even with variations, unless someone smoked bongs in the lab with the nerves to learn every matchup and is a god at reflexes, some of the cast give the borgs a run for their money. And i say that because i play Smoke daily. Tremor for example, or Liu Kang on any of the two popular variations. Always make turtle and think harder for ways to break their offense. I think many would just cut Triborg out directly too, but he ain't busted. Also welcome to the KnM videos binge watching club. Bump on old comments xD

    • @PNDKM

      Kano is the traditional variationless case where he simply has less moves in variationless, so there's zero point picking it unless you're messing about.
      That's the case for most of the vast though, so I guess it was always designed to be that way.

    This is why I love your channel, you actually post innovative and interesting content. Most of these other MK channels post the same things as each other and go with the apparent trends in terms of topics. I don't want to hate on the other channels as I do still watch them, but you guys are the top for MK in my opinion.

    • @PNDKM
      @PNDKM  6 років тому +24

      My philosophy for content is always to make videos that I myself would love to watch for other games I don't have much expertise in.
      That's why we have Science of MKX, MK Meta etc. It's all content I wish would exist for other fighting games I don't understand much about.
      I don't wanna hate on other channels either. Those folks work hard and everyone has different goals for what they want to achieve. I just like sticking to the videos that excite me personally.

      Pretty much what I was trying to say with my comment, I can tell the content you choose to create is of a genuine interest/curiosity and goes quite in depth.
      I'll repeat though, I don't mean to hate on other channels as their style most definitely makes sense (and as I said, I still watch them), I just love this one the most for MK because to me it's the most interesting, creative, and informative!

      In my opinion it's hard to make all variations for all characters God tier EVO, Gfuel - Red bull winners.
      But as a Raiden main I use them all to an extend and as I have observed people do get confused because they dont know the match -ups beyond the usuals.
      So it's a win-win situation because I get to not get bored by constantly changing my movesets and i also get wins where I shouldn't due to the fuss a non common variation creates.✌

    If this is the case, they better have a robot in there which can be customized to have missiles, bombs, nets, and teleporting uppercuts. Could you imagine playing as Cyr-ektor?!

    Variationless Triborg is really bizarre. I expected it would just look like the grey Triborg you see on the character select screen, without Cyber’s Sub misty ice effects lol. Just for clarity’s sake, does it not have an X-Ray either?

    If you think you are a good mkx player then try playing and winning with variationless jacqui briggs.
    Also Kotal in varitationless is damn hard to adjust to, but even if its harder its ultimately fun but once i found this was an option it extended the games life to no end for me.

    Isn't it better to first learn a character how he originally is and then use the variations, for me as a beginner or a casual player of fighting games, this makes more sense in my opinion.
    Weird that they made it like that, i think they first made the characters and then made the variations so it fits into the game and takes out some weakness from the character it has.

    I'm an OG MK player & I don't really like the whole variation thing. To me it's kind of a lazy way of giving characters more moves. Just give the characters all their moves/abilities, like in most other fighting games.

    • @PNDKM
      @PNDKM  6 років тому

      I really don't follow that train of thought at all. variations give extra moves to characters? Nothing is lost because of it?
      Scorpion has always had tele, spear and takedown. In most games hellfire as well, but all the variations do is give massive gameplay variety in addition? I don't think that's lazy at all. The opposite if anything.

    • @BlackSuperman2099
      @BlackSuperman2099 6 років тому

      @@PNDKM Allow me to elaborate. I'm stating that the character should have all those moves by default. There should be no need to switch styles in order to attain different "variation" moves. It's "lazy" because instead of incorporating all those moves into a single style, you have to select which style you want for the accompanying moves. If anything the variation should be able to change in the middle of battle, somewhat like Shang Tsung's (or Street Fighter 5 Zeku's) transformations.

      @@BlackSuperman2099 If characters had every move as default, the game would have been a mess. Can you imagine if Quan Chi was allowed to do his bat zoning whilst standing in sorcerer's armor?
      Changing mid match/mid round would be interesting but entirely different.
      I definitely disagree and think "lazy" is not the word to use. A lot of thought and effort went into the variation system and it's by far the game's strongest feature IMO. 3 different ways to play a character means I can revisit Bo Rai Cho in 2019 having never played bartitsu before and have an all new gameplay/learning experience for example. It's a lot of depth.

      @JaeEunA 6 років тому

      Cubelarooso It’s not possible, as often some variation specific moves change but share an input with another move. I main Kitana for example, and in one variation her DF1 gives me a horizontal fan in the air. In another however, that same DF1 does a downwards projectile, which changes my mixups entirely. Still, the limits and strengths of each gives a nice range to the styles of play even for just one character.

      Cyber Sub-Zero was a non canon character in MKX, as Sub-Zero had already returned to his human form. Canonically Triborg was Sektor, Cyrax and Smoke. This is also confirmed by dialogue lines where Triborg introduces himself as being those three combined into one.

    Variatonless is basically there just so you can play as the character's default look. Some variations I love, but I hate how their appearance changes and some moves classic moves are restricted to just one. Erron Black has his hat only in Gunslinger, Mileena's bite is only in Ravanous, and it removes her mask. Sub Zeros ice clone is only in Grandmaster. Just unnecessary visual changes and restrictions that turn me away from using a variation. I believe the variations should only add exclusive original moves, not restricting specific ones to a variation and doing unnecessary visual changes. The visual changes should only be sublte. Perfect examples of it done right is Mileena's Ethereal variation. Mileena's skin turns pale, her eyes glow more than usual, she gets ancient markings on her arms and she has added teleports, no moves from her are taken away, just added, which makes it one of my favorite variations, also Mileena looks very attractive with pale skin. Variations should've been more like that, subtle visual changes and only added moves
