I see alot of people who are saying xy or z assist, for instance goro does almost the same thing as scorpion, I believe I should have mentioned all possible options and not just ones which I consider to be meta, I will improve on that in the future I apologize
Titaniumtigerzz we where in ranked together the other night New fan here loving your guides I was the rather intermediate smoke haha you should make more content from funny to educational like this
You are probably one the best ‘guide’ video maker out there rn. People should hear you more for sure! You explain things step by step. Keep up the good work!
This is a great guide! I’ve been enjoying Ashrah so much online her timings a little tricky to get down sometimes but she’s definitely one of the most fun characters in this game
Frost is a pretty great kameo for Ashrah too because her freeze assist is a low so you can use it as a mix up with her mid overhead string and then combo off either.
Hello Titanium, Ashrah main here, I find her design amazing! Just to add my two cents, in the corner I usually prefer to end the combo in 2-2-db2 to keep the opponent in the corner. Instead of using the air combo that switches sides. I am looking forward to watching the advanced guide! Liked and subscribed, great job!
You forgot the most important part of her kit is the down teleport, when you summon the teleport you can quickly press down and the enemy will actually stay in the air rather than pushed which can be juggled with Goro or Scorpion, leading to longer and more damage dealing combos
Also one of my personal reason's of why Scorpion is the BEST kameo for her, is bc her ascension slice can be comboed without meter burn thx to his neutral assist, saving you 1 bar so you can meter burn the other ascension slice and do longer combos
Combos are far from the most important part of a characters kit. How much meterless damage they can get is important but if another kameo provides better opportunities for her to get in and get a hit in the first place I'll take that any day
I find Sonya as a good Kameo, especially for beginners. Her jump attack is quite fast, so you can continue most of your strings with Kameo without spending a bar, then following up. Scorpion does similar job, but you have to be more precise and accurate to hit his attack, while Sonya is more straight-forward but effective nonetheless
Thank you so much for making this guide. This is my first MK I'm playing seriously and I've been enjoying her so far. Will need to use her light stance projectile more for plus frame, since I feel like I don't use it enough in neutral and only in a combo after I land 21. Have you tried pairing her with Stryker? I find his ambush assist can help make her bf2 safe or interrupt their punish, allowing you to get in easy from midrange. He can also help her extend some of her meterless combos. I feel like there's potential there, but it's mostly me wanting to try kameos that aren't popular lol.
Hey! New sub and new player at fighting games aswell ( just lab lab lab lol) First of all thank you for the guide it helps a lot getting the grasp of Ashrah! I did try Goro as saw many ppl commenting on it, yeah i understand that he’s kinda like scorpion but I was converting from F2~BF2,K+U,F2, DF3ex,J122, BF2 allowing me to have another “trick” that did the same dmg isn’t it good? Or call the stomp mid air to catch the opponent as he wakes up? Once again thanks alot for this video, can’t wait for the next part!
One thing people tend to underrate when they don't notice though is the health cost. If you play with Goro vs someone with Serena you have 100 less health and considering how often games are decided with basically chip damage in the end in close games, imo you need a significant benefit to sacrifice health, and Scorpion in this case is so close that it's not worth it.
i can do most of the combo perrfectly fine, but a can't do it after the strings, i have no ideia why, looks like after the string the character just stands still
@@Titaniumtigerzz ooh okay thank you I did really good with ashrah when starting out but I’m beginning to face tougher opponents so your advice is super valuable
Good vid! Do you ever use Ashrah’s back 3 or forward 3? I catch people with the back 3 Low a lot and immediately call in Sareena for an easy 40% combo.
@@Titaniumtigerzz Cyrax is abolute best kameo for her. You can combo off of throw meterless 232, f423 (about 325) 223 and 122. and if they block couple of this strings lead into true blockstring after. also you can do vertical copter after any combo that ends with bf2 down.
@@SirrafuSthese are nowhere near good enough reasons to be running cyrax with her, and cyrax most definitely does not work well with her. I understand goro even if I don’t think it’s meta but cyrax really is not very good lol
@@Titaniumtigerzz So having 12 % chip into guaranteed combo if they mash and throw combo and combo extender out of the air is nothing, but throwing projectile which will be punbshed by every single not dead player if done upclose, is better. got you my man.
bros tripping you can damn near get 50 percent with cyrax from anywhere and you can combo out of grab plus the pressure of being hit with her projectile and the cyrax right after it lmao i think he hasn't done enough testing @@SirrafuS
@@Titaniumtigerzz thanks, my eyes are bad, I didn't notice the flash. Out of curiosity do you play with reverse edge on or off because I find a lot of the time when playing Ashrah I get the down back 1 come out when I don't want it to. Only character I get it on. I could be trying to punish a low attack and instead of the punish I swap to dark stance... Gets frustrating in close matches.
You're saying DF3 for your combo starter but inputs on the left show R2 in there. Is there a reason why you're amp/EX'ing the move? Do you have to amp to get the combo or what?
is there a reason why her combos dont work for me? i press them fast i try slow i try to time them, sometimes they do it sometimes they just decide not to
Do you know how to do her grab combo with Goro? I can't seem to find instructions online. I try it and it just knocks me down with my opponent. IDK if I'm not timing it right or using the wrong one.
@@Titaniumtigerzz Nice! Watched some of ur sonic matches and saw that u didn't use. wasn't sure if you where not used to using it or if you thought it was bad... I'll check that new video when it drops! Very nice content!
I see alot of people who are saying xy or z assist, for instance goro does almost the same thing as scorpion, I believe I should have mentioned all possible options and not just ones which I consider to be meta, I will improve on that in the future I apologize
(Side note cyrax is not good with ashrah at all but you should go with whatever assist you find most useful)
pleas go do more testing i think you are using cyrax wrong much respect tho @@Titaniumtigerzz
@@fadah5591I keep seeing it in the comments so if I find it’s a solid option I’ll put it in the advanced guide!
Titaniumtigerzz we where in ranked together the other night New fan here loving your guides I was the rather intermediate smoke haha you should make more content from funny to educational like this
@@Titaniumtigerzzjust a question but how do you feel about using general shao. I remember you using shao kahn in mk11
You are probably one the best ‘guide’ video maker out there rn. People should hear you more for sure! You explain things step by step. Keep up the good work!
That means alot!
This is a great guide! I’ve been enjoying Ashrah so much online her timings a little tricky to get down sometimes but she’s definitely one of the most fun characters in this game
Love the insightful detail dude this is a lifesaver. Please continue with ashrah info
Frost is a pretty great kameo for Ashrah too because her freeze assist is a low so you can use it as a mix up with her mid overhead string and then combo off either.
You can also use sub-zero
Most underrated character that’s at the same time busted af, I love it.

@@neroamarou3256 have you seen the amount of Omni Mans? You have to have them all the time in the air otherwise you will get spammed
Bro this guide is best Ashra guide I’ve seen so far.
Can’t wait to see your advanced guide!!! I’ve been using her at tournaments but losing to Baraka/Cyrax…
my first tourney I lost to baraka/cyrax then baraka/sektor

Im long time MK player as well. Picked up Ashrah in mk1. Looking forward to the advance guide. Subbed
So glad I’m picking up ashrah
Great guide, will take seriously especially knowing it’s coming from such a top player
Thank you so much!! Been playing a lot of Ashrah 😊
Ty for guide, and we need more!
Thank you! This is exactly the kind of guide I was hoping to find :)
These guides are amazing.
Can you make a comment or a video about how she has changed/options/kameo?
She’s mostly exactly the same! But I should have talked about Lao assist more, he’s super good
@@Titaniumtigerzz thank you man. It was mainly aimed toward the patch changes. I saw you had a comment prepatch. Thank you.
@@Titaniumtigerzz i know theres something different on her arial overhead. Ill have to double check.

Ahsrah + goro is insane
Ty for video ,which cameo should I use against Johnny, that's the only 1 I have issues with when he is on me like white on rice 🤔
I heard you’re the best ranked player that’s awesome on ps5 right that’s amazing😎
Hey! New sub and new player at fighting games aswell ( just lab lab lab lol)
First of all thank you for the guide it helps a lot getting the grasp of Ashrah!

Scorpion is just better imo! Goro is a valid option though, just don’t listen to anyone saying cyrax lol

Please cover the benfits of light / dark stance
In the advanced one I will!
Please more guides bro
i cant hit forward two after the crumble string i don’t understand:(
nvm kinda getting it just inconsistent
Hey thanks for the great guide！Do you have any tips on how to time the 21 df1 f2 combo?
Most of the times either the df1 or the f2 don't come out 😢
It was really Helpful ❤❤❤
Still waiting for the ashrah in depth guide homie im trying to improve my gameplay from what i have now 🙏🏼
It’s in the works! I’ve been incredibly busy I’m sorry lol
Looking forward to it !!!
Would you recommend using sareena meter steal during ashrah’s throw since it keeps them in the same spot?
Yes I would! But rarely it depends
@@Titaniumtigerzz ooh okay thank you I did really good with ashrah when starting out but I’m beginning to face tougher opponents so your advice is super valuable
Thank you, dude
Have they change the throw so you can’t combo it? The only way I can get scorpion to hit is at full screen
Hey, they have not changed it but if you need help figuring it out I can try and show you how if the video isn’t helping enough
@@Titaniumtigerzz I’m on Xbox. When do you press R1 exactly?
@@Rebecca-witetry to do it during the second teleport through them!
@@Rebecca-witeif you need more advice you can add my discord captain tiger#4758 happy gaming!
Good vid! Do you ever use Ashrah’s back 3 or forward 3? I catch people with the back 3 Low a lot and immediately call in Sareena for an easy 40% combo.
It’s useally not to useful to use these moves at a high level! Especially the low so I didn’t go over them
What's the best option for your combos when you can't amplify your dp for damage?
I’m having a really hard time enchanting her moves any tips?
Try making sure your pressing the enhance at the exact same moment as the 1234 that you might be using!!
Isn’t Goro better than scorpion???????
Cyrax is the best kameo for ashrah You also forgot her low you can speacial cancel out of and her second stance this was rushed.
Cyrax is definitely not useable with her lol

How can you go into air kombi after down forward 3? It only lets me if I meter burn it
U have to burn meter to do it
You have to spend meter!

@@Soldmysoulforablurayplayer yup happens to me all the time gets me killed lol..i started using down and X instead of square
@@Soldmysoulforablurayplayeralways off for every character!!
I personally prefer sonya for high damagin kombos. Awesome guide though
Sonya isn’t a good option with her competitively but I understand!
What about sonya?
This was very helpful..
You're saying DF3 for your combo starter but inputs on the left show R2 in there. Is there a reason why you're amp/EX'ing the move? Do you have to amp to get the combo or what?
You do yes sorry!
@@Titaniumtigerzz np thanks! Would be cool to know more about meterless options too!
Yo what's up tigers+Ty for that
New subscriber here, the timing of scorpion kameo grab assist can't seem to get the timing right
try cyrax way better
I forgot to mention but wait until she stops on her second teleport!
@@fadah5591and cyrax is super terrible with her but you can get with whatever works best for you!
@@Titaniumtigerzz Yeah i figured it out thanks
Love your videos. Keep up the great work 🔥🔥🔥
is there a reason why her combos dont work for me? i press them fast i try slow i try to time them, sometimes they do it sometimes they just decide not to
this vide is 8 months old so maybe they just patched the timings?
Any reason why Goro isn't considered as a kameo option? Is it because he essentially fills the same role as scorpion?
And he gives + on block on unsafe strings as well
He offers more than scorpion
Goro has his uses! But it isn’t nearly as good as the other options, I can get into it if you like but it’s definitely not a contender
Hi, any tips for landing the projectile-dash, f2- projectile?
I’m having trouble applying the pressure because the f2 is duckable
Understanding your ranges!!! It takes practice
2:17 how can you combo out of df1? Unless it's after 21
At a distance it can combo into buttons! And on set ups I’ll get into on the advanced guide
@@Titaniumtigerzz oh wow, can you give me specific example?
RELEASE THE ADVANCED GUIDE
bro didnt even talk about the dark stance
That’s in the advanced guide! It’s not something you should use until your advanced with her
Bro.. do you do private coaching lessons?
Yes but I charge!
@@Titaniumtigerzz how do i get in touch?
TT nooooo
Don’t teach them the ways 😭
also use lao for zoning matchups cuz he just outzones everyone including reiko 💀😅
This is true lol
Surprised goro isn’t mentioned as a potential kameo. I still like scorpion better but they go well together.
Looking forward to the advanced guide
Do you know how to do her grab combo with Goro? I can't seem to find instructions online. I try it and it just knocks me down with my opponent. IDK if I'm not timing it right or using the wrong one.
Cyrax is the best i think. same thing as goro basically, but 50% more life.
@@Xyos212 call goro just after she does the last slash
@@silverpower6912ty
You never use her other stance?
I plan to explain it in the next video!
@@Titaniumtigerzz Nice! Watched some of ur sonic matches and saw that u didn't use. wasn't sure if you where not used to using it or if you thought it was bad... I'll check that new video when it drops! Very nice content!
