3:32 this line got me thinking about how funny it is that Sindel and gang are 10,000+ years old and still regularly lose in the tournament to a bunch of 20 yr olds.
Yes, what is mind bogling is how Shao Khan is just as old is a heavy weight 8 foot tall dude with a magic war axe and armor who is part of a stronger legendary draconic race descendant from onaga who has been going to wars for all that time, and still looses to a 20 year old in a kimono. Liu Kang really did Shao Khan dirty, he must have given him the equivalent of draconic mega Artritis when he was born.
@@avmrb42 well and now that I think about it none of Earth's champions had super powers either. Johnny cage no, Kenshi needs sento, Kung Lao is just the hat story wise, and Raiden needed to be given a talisman. The Lin Kuei are all our powered individuals and they don't even compete.
@zato-1766 Mortal Kombat never took their villains realistically, because the good guys need to win, but the last game they straight out nerfed the outworlders to a non-treat. Which is a shame because honestly Shang-Tsung is not a very apealing villain being a skinny scamming street-boy, turned wizard that just learned magic and got mad with power. And Quan-Chi is just a court mage that learned necromancy rather than the demon king of Nether Realm. While Shao Khan and Syndel are outworld's queen and king, who battle hordes of Monstrosities and conquered the most inospitable of the realms trough sheer streght, but still get beaten easily, by the likes of Reptile since he joined team good guys. The Stakes were so low they had to bring an alternate version of him that was a Titan to make him a threath. The good thing is that now they set themselves up to have to make either Sub-Zero Onaga or Shao-Khan the main villains for the next game, so big hopes for the next story line. Hopefully we get scorpion to be the hero this time.
@@avmrb42 i remember there being an old canon explanation back in the early 2k's and late 90s. That something about humans just being more spiritual or whatever, balances out the power scaling. Allowing them to keep up with outworlders experience.
He hasn’t really used his kung Lao noogie either … this dude is really good tho … my only gripe really with kung is his spin has no combo potential I don’t even know what it’s for
Kung Lao is better than he's ever been in this game. Bnbs for every character end the same. He has several combo routes if you want them but good players maximize damage when they get it. With every character
@@youngroosevelt38 both have armor enhanced has mobility but have pretty slow startups so I don’t see them being combo Enders … at the moments it’s not to useful lol
Seeing the projectile battle and watch you and that Kung Lao pick at each other for an opening is just so cool to watch i suck too much at the projectile game😂
I got to play a handful of matches with Kung Lao the other day i just wasn't feeling him. I hope that changes when i get the game myself and practice. I love Liu Kang And Kung Lao.
Because of the distance and how she is slightly stunned doing scream, she is unable to get a jump in to continue the combo. Either that or the timing is super strict.
By the way, Sarina is also suitable for Kung Lao, today I tried to pour 456 damage on her with two camps, and this is with one meter. Trash and fumes guys🤣🤣🤣
Yes for combos she suitable for everyone..But she doesn't cover up Lao gaps..She dont help him combo from his best move his Armour launcher's..She dont make his strings plus or safe..Because you can punish her back kameo move..Its all about the style you want to play and people don't seem to understand that.
@valhalla8140 ikr. Game hasn't been out for a week and people are like "PATCH THIS ITS BROKEN" like bro eventually you will adapt and predict it. It's called "getting good"
@@SanityBH exactly, give the game some time, people would learn the match ups and we will have a higher level of game play than a boring game where every character hardly has any creativity or excitement.
I hate what they did to my dog spin in this game..made me put him down instantly
Kung Lao is underrated in this game
Raiden is the meta
@lamontbeverly7374 raiden smoke scorpion all op
@@fudmucker1000 smoke is good too! Liu kang is the worst character on this game 😓
Kung Lao is underrated in all games.
Game ain't even out yet 💀
I don’t like how they did kung lmao dirty in mk1. No teleport but 2 hat throws instead..
That shit got me heated bro and why they got the spin like that
Absolutely kills me, the Kung Lao Kameo teleport is absolute buns too
There are 3 certainties in life:
- Death
- Taxes
- Kung Lao being low-mid tier in every game he is in
Lol what? Mkx is it joke?
@@valmar2013 he wasn't top tier in X. He was mid.
@@WoodyWoodson1984Yh but he was for sure either slap bang in the middle or even High-Mid in the right hands.
@@WoodyWoodson1984Tempest Lao in mkx is upper A Tier if you got the exectution

I think I speak for all king Lao fans when I say mk1 really ruined kung Lao this year
How does he end all his combos the same way smh

I haven't labbed Kung Lao much, but I believe his spin is for ending combos now. Maybe the enhanced version has armor?

@@Iamkiingdrew
Lol well damn that sucks. I barely tried out Kung Lao before I moved on. Loved him in 9, X, and 11 tho
Seeing the projectile battle and watch you and that Kung Lao pick at each other for an opening is just so cool to watch i suck too much at the projectile game😂
SINDEL, KUNG LAO, SIREENA, GORO.
didn’t think i’d ever see this matchup, everyone too busy playing baraka and mileena
Bro splash is always got a crazy lao frfr
ahh the best sub playing lao. nice
guess right splash
Kung frost is dope he can reset after his mb db2
great gamers
Splashman was really good with Sub-zero at the beta. He got a few matches with sonicfox
Yeah he was but dat was temporary, Splash is known as a Kung Lao main in MK11 glad it carried over to MK1
The best sindel hands down
I got to play a handful of matches with Kung Lao the other day i just wasn't feeling him. I hope that changes when i get the game myself and practice. I love Liu Kang And Kung Lao.
this is the nintendo version or why the lag
Why dont u jump punch after the stunning scream?
Because of the distance and how she is slightly stunned doing scream, she is unable to get a jump in to continue the combo. Either that or the timing is super strict.
Well, he faced the best damn Sindel in the game King👑❤️
Kameo assists are so cheap! I’m probably the only person who plays without them!! And that’s on Mamas
I just love watching your Sindel. Makes me wanna put the time in with her. She seems so complex.
By the way, Sarina is also suitable for Kung Lao, today I tried to pour 456 damage on her with two camps, and this is with one meter. Trash and fumes guys🤣🤣🤣

@@tryingtochangemyways5074 Everything Lao does is safe and that's not an exaggeration. Sonya is the best kameo for lao though
lets play some sets ??
cant believe KL air kick is safe on block...I remember its was one of the easiest Krushing blows in MK11 when punished lol
It is most definitely not safe on block. It’s -16 to -22 on block
its splash bro famous lao player in all mk
Teleport move??
best kung lao??
90% of the video he is zoning you
Why people think about sindel just like a zoner and everybody begin to spam projectiles over and over. Come on she is better than that...
you should play zytheshock hes the best lao imo.
Butta from the HEESE village beat him the other day. I like shock and his Lao x lao will be dope
Cap I'm the best Lao
Lao has a safe armor leading to a full combo.They must nerf it in next patch
wtf are you talking about lmao
@absolomb8873 I think he's talking about his back forward 4 Amplified into Sonya
Nah fam, no nerfs let it rock, let this game be as broken as possible 😊
