I don’t know whether to be happy with Havik buffs or sad, because I mained Havik since the beginning but now I feel like all the meta slaves are going to move over to him abuse him and then get him nerfed. Stick with your main through the highs and the lows, don’t jump around to whoever is good.
I think they have buffed the characters way they did because the base roster is very bland compared to noob, CYRAX, and sektor. So a nerf I do not think is coming for Havik
That's what what happens everytime same happened with Nitara and Scorpion. They don't care about having fun they use meta to just win which is stupid. I feel sorry for y'all
Same, but I’m calling it now. People always complaining about him and he’ll get a nerf before the year ends 😒. I played too many fighting games to not see this coming from a mile away lol
@trelliday honestly i got comfortable with old havik so ill be more than content with my new tools ahah now lets just hope we get our classic havik skin
He looked like someone I would normally play, but in a game like this he played too lame, had no real cheese, and had pretty bad matchups due to his kit being so specific. But now he looks like if he gets that hit your gonna learn to respect him. Might pick him up tbh
Noob is my MK1 Spawn forreal. I’m about to be just a vortex main though. Scorpion+Ferra and Cyrax for as many rage quits as possible before her bombs get nerfed
Some keynotes I’d like players to give me feedback on: - Sub Zero + Khameleon in Reverse order. Open up with string into jade glaive or ground freeze, do a string into the opposite one next, and then end the combo with a string into ice clone. - Follow that with the low/OH reset mixup with Mileena now being the phase - Geras is there a consistent way to combo off of Kham: Mileena sai’s off of his overhead? I struggled - When playing Cyrax do you prefer using Kameo Cyrax or Kameo Kano - Both function similarly, Kano just armor breaks instead. - Nitara + Sonya players how do you feel being the reason people will never get on MK1 again? Lol - What buffs does Peacemaker need that are fun but also good? - Sektor’s mid string is unsafe, how do we feel about that?
@@Diff I think for PM they should buff his damage to what it was after his first nerf and make eagely a bit faster but still unsafe. I would also give him back 50 health and give him some new offensive specials, maybe something with his shield where he can absorb projectiles and gain hits of armor per every projectile absorbed. He can go for an unsafe launcher off of this, a safe high, or do nothing. I would keep everything else the same. Geras can combo with hour glass
I love subs in this game. I just wish we could combo with the ice ball. I wouldn't even mind if he got the scorpion treatment, where he has a fast start up but slow recovery if he misses. It keeps us from just spamming ice ball and we gonna be strategic when we use it. His core moveset is great. It's just he still has to use so many resources to be a threat or play the running away game and force the opponent to come to use and we use an ice clone.
Don’t understand the mission that NRS is on to keep the “Grandmaster” SubZer0 literally the saddest character in the Lin Kuei. It’s so frustrating watching the damage that Cyrax, Sektor, Smoke and even scorpion gets vs the person who should be the best of that klan. Don’t mean to rant but I hate how they made ice ball useless and the way SZ damages scales when other characters have way more damage. If they speed up the ice ball to allow it to combo and shorten the cool down on the ice Klone sub will probably move up a tier and that’s not even considering if they buff his damage. Buff Sub Zero!!!!
AYO???? Peacemaker below sub is crazy. I get my ass beat by Peacemaker and Ferra, and I truly believe that team is fucking broken, he still has amazing fundamentals, and with Ferra bro can get a standing mix up! nobody plays him anymore because he is boring. 😅
I feel like Quan was decent two monthes and could.compete with low tiers and some match ups but now that every character and their mom got buffed he sunk into low tier again
Kung Lao needs his teleport. Fighting against any flying character or zoner feels impossible since he has now has to dive kick to gain distance, which opens him up way too much. He is already a stubby character and now you cant even use his safe armor to get in close. The spin buff is nice, but you need to use meter to make it move fast, and youre not able to combo out of it, and you wont be getting any damage out of it either. Does not help he has 3 high strings and his meterless launcher is like reptiles but its unsafe.
Ive spent the past couple days learning noob and I like him at top of B but im not entirely sure. I definitely get what you were saying with the “hard to open someone up” it was especially clear in a mirror match i did where we both spend a good 30 seconds doing strings back and forth trying to mix each other up. I use janet instead of movado, I think she offers more consistent combos, but a lot of mix comes from his instant cancel down back three, she clone sweep. I just feel like he might edge his way into A with all of his possible things at his disposal, but i also see him being held back because of his walk/dash speed as well as his trex arms for pokes.
I’m thinking of starting to play again.. I’m interested in Baraka/Ferra. I mained Shao at release. I wanted to main Baraka but he was very OP in three beginning. Everyone played him.
i know mk1 had a rough start but with all the updates and patches the game has gotten better and i simply love mk1 khaos reigns !! im excited for kp3 and part 3 of the story mode..fun times
Aside from the ex neck snap being genuinely just op, I think havik is fine and if they find a way to balance that move then he will be a balanced high tier
I’m a havik player and even I understand that ex snap is objectively bad for the game. It shouldn’t break armor AND negate the damage scaling. Reversing controls is not a legitimate downside because at top level execution is not a problem. It should either JUST break armor or JUST give a damage boost, whether they keep the reverse controls gimmick is whatever
I’ve been a havik Main since launch and I played him once online and he felt like a whole new character and I felt like I wasn’t fighting for my life for the first time against higher level players
homelander ain't as bad as people think, try fight a good cyrax you can jab him out of normal~flight cancels easy into full combo. he has no decent get out jail free card in the corner, his strings are mediocre and quite a few unsafe moves but yes his whiff punish is pretty damn solid.
Cyrax puts you in one forced 50/50 after she touches you. Homelander mixes you 3 different ways whenever he makes you block💀. Not even gonna talk about all the other bs Homelander has
i keep hearing people say “the 3 havik mains must be ecstatic” but what they fail to realize is this is gonna be another nitara ferra situation all over again where so many people are gonna pick up this character and just shit out 40%+ damage for basically free
I don’t think so. Havik isn’t crazy broken at the moment. He’s way better but not broken. There may be some hype but these fake Havik players will be washed and true mains will remain.
as an havik main, every one has now as interest on him and that is disgusting, we used to have an bottom C character and no one wanted to play him bruh, many people s gonna play him cause he’s now overpowered
Jumping back into MK1 for the first time in a few months which characters should I try out? My OG mains were reptile and a lil bit of general shao and peacemaker
I keep joking that Sub is to MK1 as Honda is to SF6. Good at low to moderate levels, but at high levels, his stuff is figured out and the typical, higher damage just doesn't come out as a result. And inexplicably left to sit pretty much as is. Also, Reiko Mavado is wild. Less over the top damage, but you can do 30% combos off a TON of random connections and pokes and it makes him even better at just not needing the corner to mess you up.
I've been a raiden main for a min but I have the most fun pairing him with Sektor. Although any good player can easily armor if I try to pressure with Sektor.
If you use peacemaker with Stryker or Cyrax it is good imo. Peacemaker has a lot of easy moves you can repeat and they don’t stand a chance. He’s just boring cause there’s nothing new.
He’s definitely one of the harder characters to master on the game. You can get on and do damage pretty easy, but playing well enough to beat top players using their mains? He’s definitely tough
Kitana is not S because she doesn’t have easy access to pressure. Most of the true top tier characters have easy ways to open you up and have great pressure without the need of a kameo. She is good but not S
Warning: This video includes opinions, obviously. If you hate opinions, click off this video. But if you're like me and not biased af, keep watching. Good list, Diff!
Appreciate that! Honestly I think this is a good synopsis of what the community thinks. I caught a cold, and drops have been on, so I’ve been watching/talking to a whole host of streamers about their opinions on this patch and the best characters. Plus just playing all the time while sitting inside haha
Idk about noob being set to only using mavado, both janet's forward kameo and sonya's new down kameo are great for extending combos into his db2 and I've found a 41% and 40% for both. Otherwise I can agree that his starters are a bit one dimensional
Vyletz has a great video explaining but i'll do my best F14 dial in mid, ends in a low. The low combos off her ambush easily, can be cancelled early to combo wherever, and can be mixed up to combo with sonya's overhead. f214 has the overhead launch mixup of sonya, and is plus on block unlike Scorpion's which is negative 12 can have the flawless block punish saved by Sonya overhead low sai's combo into sonya ambush sonya has a fullscreen projectile and can keep yolo ball roll safe etc jump pressure with new sonya move
NRS, for the love of God, at least make it so that if i block/duck one of Homelander's Diabolical Dash attacks, that my punish combo forces normal stand on him instead of treating him as airborne.
As a geras main, after the changes to other characters, he’s bottom 1. The F3 bounce buff has too much recovery to work with pretty much anyone, especially motaro who is his best kameo for his neutral by far. It’s so sad to see b/c geras was always low tier with havik & shang, but they are basically new characters and Geras is arguably worse.
Yo! Sup Diff!? I got a question for you, how do u think that the GhostFace's Fatality will work on Kenshi since he doesn't have any eyes? 😂😂😂 Let's Go Diff!!!!!!! 👊🏻🎮🐉🦂🦂🦂✌🏻🙏🏻
Smoke: "In Kombat league he is much better like b or a because you CAN'T COUNTERPICK HIM" I love how they think smoke benefits from high pings 😂 when actually the cancels are going to start to miss due to the short input it has on it 😂 Btw, Takeda, sub, geras and lao, are waay more dangerous and safer to use than smoke
I dont belive we se her much on Evo! Ashrah as u call boring, yes.. however it`s the same as easy to read too. She need no buffs, however she need some more staggers or something. her mind games is not worth the S for me. And somehow shes different online than offline to worse online. So much that Ninja killer and hes friend also talk about this in a match.
And yet Subzero is STILL garbage. I'm really not understanding what NRS is doing with SZ. He's gotten almost zero buffs. Whatever he does get is pretty much worthless. They come out with these awesome characters like Takeada, Cyrax, Sektor etc. Meanwhile SZ just sits there and sucks. I really don't get it. Like make him competitive! He's a legacy character just like Scorpion.
I agree about Sub but Takeda was considered weak already and got a HUGE DAMAGE NERF! 😭 still fun and my co-main though. Nitara is better amd still gets HUGE DAMAGE 😵
I’ve put more hours into the game in the past 3 days than I have in the last 3 months haha. On top of watching streams for drops constantly. Things could change though, that’s a fair point. I just had a ton of thoughts and this is the easiest way to talk about every character.
Imagine how good this game were without kameo, but now they have to fix their own game 1 million times cause of their stupid kameo system and why they dont take 2-3 pro gamers and let them test new fighters? They can tell you immediately after one day, what is to strong or what they have to work on.
Why would you nerf a character that completely relies on their mobility & plus frames to do literally anything? He has no projectiles & his damage is average, yet, consistent. Johnny is quite balanced as he is, now. If any more big nerfs were to happen, he'd literally be bottom 3. Johnny would still be good with the entire kameo roster, but he wouldn't even feel like an MK character with the nerfs you're asking for. 🤷♂️
@@Nuggetlord6969 Exactly. Some characters are S-tier not because they're broken, but because they were well-thought-out (with minor, justifiable tweaks). For example: Johnny Cage & Homelander have completely different reasons for being S-tier; one is busted, with seemingly no way to be fixed- while the other is a genuinely respectable pick, similar to Ashura (just a few more controllers sent to console heaven 💀).
I go directly to Cyrax, then I press X for purchase, and it says "this character is only available for early access with the purchase of Khaos Reigns expansion" then I press continue, and it takes me to the $50 expansion
@kamyar_hajizadeh Yeah I don't do story mode at all and last expansion all I used were the kameos. Definitely not falling for that trick again. They're trying to make this a $160 game! lol It's really insane when you think about it. It doesn't even pack the same punch as games half it's size content wise.
My bro used nitara from the start and she was allways top 15 even tho He diddnt think that but she was and still is A Charakter that can be so scary to jump at and fly Like that is strong that she had so manny unsafe moves was balancing 😃😅
Yeaaaaah, I have a nitara friend and her getting a free dive kick with Sonya now is kinda wild. I’m just standing there too scared to hit Scorpion’s b2 to try and anti air
@@Diff yes i allways Said nitara has all the Tools in the world and the biggest damage since Release of the Game and people called her weak or Low Tier but she never was now with Sonya giving her the Pistol that gives her a free Grab or the plus Leg Grab its Just crazy plus the newest kick Attack its so good She went from amazing but No one used her to super amazing and everyone uses her 😃 I Like that Scorpion alot of bufs and Things He needed but i would Like Scorpion and smoke get alot of new moves 😅😃
@@Diff what i learned from playing against my friend That by the way Beat alot of pro Players even karnimani and i learned Dont anti Air or jump at her And when you Play against nitara dont try to Up Block nitara can be Up blocked but If you Focus too much on Up Blocking IT makes you unfocused 😃😅
nO way u think takeda is C tier he the most fun character in the game to me and ive been very successful wit him i have takeda at A tier u just need to know the setups and the shMIX
@@OpenMiker-rp4eo wit the right kameo he strong!!! i use him wit tremor sektor and frost the setups i have is pretty effective 💯 got to God rank with him last KL season

whats that bandana looking thing on your head? it looks wierd ngl no disrespect btw
I don’t know whether to be happy with Havik buffs or sad, because I mained Havik since the beginning but now I feel like all the meta slaves are going to move over to him abuse him and then get him nerfed. Stick with your main through the highs and the lows, don’t jump around to whoever is good.

That's what what happens everytime same happened with Nitara and Scorpion. They don't care about having fun they use meta to just win which is stupid. I feel sorry for y'all
I just want to play him because he’s actually a fun character now 🤷🏽♂️ especially while I wait and save for KHAOS REIGNS
Don’t worry about other people bro just play your character and have fun lmao
I've been a havik main since the game came out, and i could not be happier about this ahahah
Well deserved, and nice to see ya David🤝
Same, but I’m calling it now. People always complaining about him and he’ll get a nerf before the year ends 😒. I played too many fighting games to not see this coming from a mile away lol

You need to do matchup characters…. Who can be counter picked against whom. Who can beat who in the game.
NOOB Saibot makes me excited in more ways than one…
Noob is my MK1 Spawn forreal. I’m about to be just a vortex main though. Scorpion+Ferra and Cyrax for as many rage quits as possible before her bombs get nerfed
Nobody talks about how every single button reptile has leads to a combo with mavado.
With Tanya’s nerfs he has a top 2 auto shimmy
Standing 3 into full kombo is js amazing lmfao
@@Luh0grestanding 4 is the only button that doesn’t string to 30%+ combos. Honeybee figured him out completely
Kameo Scorpion is another one that Reptile works well with.
Homelander is cancer ☠️
Some keynotes I’d like players to give me feedback on:
- Sub Zero + Khameleon in Reverse order. Open up with string into jade glaive or ground freeze, do a string into the opposite one next, and then end the combo with a string into ice clone. - Follow that with the low/OH reset mixup with Mileena now being the phase

RIGHT
No more nerfs only buffs and more buffs
If you use peacemaker with Stryker or Cyrax it is good imo. Peacemaker has a lot of easy moves you can repeat and they don’t stand a chance. He’s just boring cause there’s nothing new.

Why is Mileena so good with Sonya? I didn’t know that was her preferred kameo.

F14 dial in mid, ends in a low. The low combos off her ambush easily, can be cancelled early to combo wherever, and can be mixed up to combo with sonya's overhead.
f214 has the overhead launch mixup of sonya, and is plus on block unlike Scorpion's which is negative
12 can have the flawless block punish saved by Sonya overhead

The slight damage buffs to combo starters is NOTHING with the damage nerf to his MAIN source of combo damage 😭
Diff when you streaming on Yt?
Tanya has been really quiet for awhile. Mhmm... I wonder why?
10:15 I’ve never had this issue against homelander my combos work fine with anyone
F32 for Scorpion is janky with it idk, camera gets weird to juggle 3 in a row for the 1 bar optimal
I dont belive we se her much on Evo! Ashrah as u call boring, yes.. however it`s the same as easy to read too.
She need no buffs, however she need some more staggers or something. her mind games is not worth the S for me. And somehow shes different online than offline to worse online. So much that Ninja killer and hes friend also talk about this in a match.
Do you play other then scorpion ?
He does just watch his other vids
Definitely a little biased with scorpion, but I still would rank him mid A tier.
I can never get over how bad he once was in the first couple months, to how he feels to play now. It's one of the biggest glow ups in MK history haha
I don’t even play homelander and still labbed 26% off Ferra. Plz give him a real nerf netherrealm (meterless)
Shang sung shape shift should be seamless
Geras can actually confirm off of f3 with motaro teleport with d1 then time freeze, however the timing is quite tight.😕
Almost not worth it, too inconsistent but what else is knew as a Geras player smh Up ferra in the corner works
Ah, the weekly tier list video
this Diff skin goes hard
i just want to leave every time i see a kitana player
And yet Subzero is STILL garbage. I'm really not understanding what NRS is doing with SZ. He's gotten almost zero buffs. Whatever he does get is pretty much worthless. They come out with these awesome characters like Takeada, Cyrax, Sektor etc. Meanwhile SZ just sits there and sucks. I really don't get it. Like make him competitive! He's a legacy character just like Scorpion.
Im a sub main😔
I agree about Sub but Takeda was considered weak already and got a HUGE DAMAGE NERF! 😭 still fun and my co-main though. Nitara is better amd still gets HUGE DAMAGE 😵
Hi from Argentina man! Is it stupid to request a skins top tier?? This patch got us some really good ones!
Are you going to live stream
Johnny speedbag command grab 🙏
peacemaker loyalist here. i agree he sucks. after the havik, shang buffs peacemaker is definitely bottom 1
kind of early to tier list i think things still being figured out
I’ve put more hours into the game in the past 3 days than I have in the last 3 months haha. On top of watching streams for drops constantly. Things could change though, that’s a fair point. I just had a ton of thoughts and this is the easiest way to talk about every character.
buff peacemaker
Imagine how good this game were without kameo, but now they have to fix their own game 1 million times cause of their stupid kameo system and why they dont take 2-3 pro gamers and let them test new fighters? They can tell you immediately after one day, what is to strong or what they have to work on.
Day 1 combat league I went 9/0 with smoke sonya
i like your deception li mei cosplay pretty nice lookin
HUH?! 👀
Diff would you ever play Rain in a live stream?
Still Johnny on S Tier. What is it with this Guy that they cant Nerf him ?
Why would you nerf a character that completely relies on their mobility & plus frames to do literally anything? He has no projectiles & his damage is average, yet, consistent. Johnny is quite balanced as he is, now. If any more big nerfs were to happen, he'd literally be bottom 3.
Johnny would still be good with the entire kameo roster, but he wouldn't even feel like an MK character with the nerfs you're asking for. 🤷♂️
@@KingDeadMancook. Johnny without khameleon is kinda meh these days
@@Nuggetlord6969 Exactly. Some characters are S-tier not because they're broken, but because they were well-thought-out (with minor, justifiable tweaks).
For example:
Johnny Cage & Homelander have completely different reasons for being S-tier; one is busted, with seemingly no way to be fixed- while the other is a genuinely respectable pick, similar to Ashura (just a few more controllers sent to console heaven 💀).
And here I am - I just want Cyrax and they're like, "Give us $50!" I can't buy one character? Screw these guys. Don't give them your money!
Forreal? I thought we could. Can we buy Cyrax only at a later date?
I go directly to Cyrax, then I press X for purchase, and it says "this character is only available for early access with the purchase of Khaos Reigns expansion" then I press continue, and it takes me to the $50 expansion
Wait few days and it will become purchasable
@kamyar_hajizadeh Yeah I don't do story mode at all and last expansion all I used were the kameos. Definitely not falling for that trick again. They're trying to make this a $160 game! lol It's really insane when you think about it. It doesn't even pack the same punch as games half it's size content wise.
In October, I believe they are sold separately
Road to rank 1 when?🥲
My bro used nitara from the start and she was allways top 15 even tho He diddnt think that but she was and still is
A Charakter that can be so scary to jump at and fly Like that is strong that she had so manny unsafe moves was balancing 😃😅
Yeaaaaah, I have a nitara friend and her getting a free dive kick with Sonya now is kinda wild. I’m just standing there too scared to hit Scorpion’s b2 to try and anti air
@@Diff yes i allways Said nitara has all the Tools in the world and the biggest damage since Release of the Game and people called her weak or Low Tier but she never was now with Sonya giving her the Pistol that gives her a free Grab or the plus Leg Grab its Just crazy plus the newest kick Attack its so good
She went from amazing but No one used her to super amazing and everyone uses her 😃
I Like that Scorpion alot of bufs and Things He needed but i would Like Scorpion and smoke get alot of new moves 😅😃
@@Diff what i learned from playing against my friend
That by the way Beat alot of pro Players even karnimani and i learned
Dont anti Air or jump at her
And when you Play against nitara dont try to Up Block nitara can be Up blocked but If you Focus too much on Up Blocking IT makes you unfocused 😃😅
Sub being subject to one kameo just to move up to C tier….sounds like D tier to me. cx
Am I the only one who habitually teabags Homelander I beat on principle alone?
Raiden still does DAMAGE?! With all 3 bars?!
Raiden is boring AF in this game: lore and gameplay. Fujin shoulda replaced him as Earthrealm’s protector back in 11 or earlier 😭
i think cyrax hmelander havik sindel and sektor are top 5 right now.
Insane recency bias
nO way u think takeda is C tier he the most fun character in the game to me and ive been very successful wit him i have takeda at A tier u just need to know the setups and the shMIX
I HOPE so! Ninja thinks he sucks and that HUGE DAMAGE NERF hurts. FUN character though. My co-main.
@@OpenMiker-rp4eo wit the right kameo he strong!!! i use him wit tremor sektor and frost the setups i have is pretty effective 💯 got to God rank with him last KL season
I want Omni man to have a command grab so bad
I think it would make sense for his stance
I will defs be trying to play all s tiers as am a shang sung main
WHERES ROAD TO RANK 1, IM FIENDING FOR IT
Geras can convert w his normal kameos on F3
So sad about Tanya HER DAMAGE IS SH*T NOW
3% lower on bnb’s right?
@@Diff I think so ya if not lower 😂
