Time for another Mortal Kombat 1 guide! By request, lets go into specific detail about people who mash and spam crouching attacks in MK1. It can be frustrating to deal with if you don't know the answers, but, hey, I got the answers for you, so time to learn the game systems and hope this helps!
Thank you for this video, seems every Raiden players just wants to crotch sniff, aka just stay jabbing then go into electrical leg sweep, you block then try to counter & they just go back to jabbing, shits dumb
Rooflemonger, Kitana doesnt have an overhead, how can I open my opponent up. It's especially hard with Reiko who has great projectiles and those characters that 50-50 you to death (sub zero)
I love how DSP was used as an example and then Roofle added insult to injury by saying "This is where education beats ignorance every time." He blasted DSP so hard with that. 😂😂
Typical cry baby that is always complaining without putting any effort to learn the game, MK1 just came out and he wants to be the world champion already 😂
You realize its just him doing his schick to get hate views and money right? He's known for this, he leans into it, like most lolcows solely making money off streaming. I'm not defending him, he's a whiny moron, but if he acted normal and tried to learn from his mistakes he would not get the attention he gets. Negative attention still brings eyeballs and money. This is something I don't understand people still don't get, especially with guys like DSP who have been doing the same song and dance for over a decade.
It is so true. Had this happen to me recently. I was having trouble dealing with Omni Man for a while and it was feeling "cheap". Then I remembered, Oh yeah there is a thing called up block. The rest of the night I had zero issues beating Omni Man. Anytime something feels cheap stop and think what am I not doing to counter this that I could be doing.
I'm confused as to why dsp lied to his audience and said kameos were locked behind invasions mode, it was so blatantly untrue, but like you said...ignorance 😅
Thanks for all the uploads! Long time MK fan, but this is the first time I've tried to actually play more than just the story mode. Is there any way you could make a video about finding gaps in combos with the teleporting characters like Smoke, Raiden, and Mileena? I feel like every time I come across one, it takes one mistake and then I'm just dead. I don't even really know where to look for what mistakes I'm making because the teleports are very hard to read for a beginner.
@@jordanbeaman6911 training mode play as one the teleporting character put cpu on reversal, when you do the combos cpu will try to counter the combos giving you said gaps.
I can honestly say, throughout the years, your videos have made me a better fighting game player while also deepening my love of the genre. Thank you all you do and for sharing your knowledge with us!
It's really rough as Scorpion because he has 1 mid, and they want you to use it because you can duck the second hit for a full punish. Mashing and ducking vs Scorpion is really strong.
@icediddy that cockroach is gonna outlive the internet and his content is the most boring, dead air-filled snorefest out of any streamer out there It's all silence, or complaining, and chat is always turned off so there's zero interaction
Well, maybe if you different content for each game. It's really all the same excuse going back as far I've seen (Vanilla SF4) "Connection sucks" "I didn't do that" "It won't block" "That's cheap" "Online Tack-tix" "This guy is an idiot" - not sure what that has to do with fighters but you know, his dent's buy it "You have no honor!" -- He doesn't use this anymore, but like...it's my favorite lol. Reminds me of my little bro when we'd play SF2 and though sliding trips were OP. YOU HAVE NO HONOR!!!
Playing this game with the mindset of actually wanting to improve and get better at fighting games that SF6 gave me has made me realize how simple MK is yet my brain has such a hard time understanding it. I’m just kinda struggling to know how to get my offense going when it is my turn. I’m also just really bad at getting in. I’m learning though. I won’t be winning Evo anytime soon but I can tell I’m understanding things more. This is kind of a ramble honestly sorry but uh thanks for all these videos you put out. You’ve been a great help to me for years as I try and get more into this genre that I love so much but have always sucked at
Im genuinely loving baraka’s online play. Hes aggressive and still has defensive tools to maintain his space on the fight line. I like being able to slam opponents from midair combos and then hit them with my projectile and dash into their face
Great tips! Sadly *some people* refuse to learn. A sign of maturity is preferring to be told you're wrong and then become right rather than to not be told and to stay wrong. But I suppose that takes a strong ego and not a fragile over-inflated one!
@@kims4149d1 was definitely not punishable in mkx. Plenty of characters had a -3 or -4 d1 which is exactly why you saw a lot of people just mash it on block.
They made a very good change in this one and made all down 1's fairly negative on block If your opponents do a string and then spam down 1's be patient after blocking the string and block the down 1 and after that attack them. They will be in a large disadvantage after you block the down 1 so if theu try mashing any button after you block the down 1 you'll hit them first But if they land a down 1 don't attack them. They'll be + after landing a down 1 so you won't be able to attack them and they will hit you first
@@JBlxckk you're probably using a slow string. Down 1's are -12 on block. As long as you use a move that isn't over 17 frames she shouldn't be able to interrupt
Not really similiar, but it reminds me of a situation where I got very salty in. Like 6 or so years ago when I was playing Xrd with a friend, I got stuck in the corner alot. And it just wrecked me over and over again, to the point where I just flatout asked "what should I even do before I throw this game away?" My friends answer was "just don't be there". Which sounds kinda rude, obviously I don't wanna be there, they're putting me there. But after some time I realized what they meant: GET OUT OF THE CORNER. Use every option you have and not just sit there and take all the abuse. Sit down in training mode and see what you can do about the situation. It was a little eye-opening and also just absolutely pleasing to put my friend in the corner instead.
I think Stephanie said it best and i paraphrase, at some point, when the game shows you how it plays, its not up to the game to bend to your perspective on how things work, its up to you to figure out what works. It shouldnt have been that hard for him to figure out how the game plays, especially since he was top 4 in evo in SF once
@@trenvert123 Stephanie is trans. People who resent the trans movement trying to force them to use words try to push back by using Stephanie's old name as revenge. Imo the stephanie transition worked great! She looks like a real woman now. And hilariously, her skill at the game got much worse after becoming a woman. Accidental sexism there, steph.
As a brand new player to fighting games this video was super helpful. I've heard the word poke a few times, and they seem an important part of the game, so its super helpful learning what they are and how to deal with them. Thanks for your hard work Rooflemonger!
Haven’t watched this channel in almost a year! Came across you from dbfz, glad to be back, your breakdowns/tutorials are amazing, you structure your videos really well, and explain things thoroughly, keep up the tips and guides!
Mortal Kombat/NRS mechanics always feel strange to me in the beginning. So, videos like these are always great refreshers on my options. Great work and thanks for the video.
@@Tactical_TurtwigI don't treat him as a member of the FGC, he is a lulcow and that all he is. Hate watchers support him just so he can continue being a total loser.
Is this guy famous? Who is he? It looked like a bunch of whining in a clip, "I can't come up with a solution to a spam attack, so game sucks", I thought pro fighting game players are better than that. Edit: Oh, I missed the part about "IN HIS OWN WORDS he is the best SF player" nvm, some doofus then.
Basically the only "accomplishment" DSP has is top 4 in a tournament for an over a decade old game that wasn't the latest installment in the series and was ported badly to one console that EVO just happened to run the tournament for that game that year, and while many great players boycotted the game, DSP actually had practiced on the same, shitty version of the game and proceeded to place fairly high in that tournament. And as you perhaps may have seen from this video, that 4th place finish hasn't sadly translated into being any good at other games at all
The hilarious part is not only is Raiden good. He's genuinely the easiest character too. You get huge combos that are very very easy and have nutty neutral. Great mix is just in his buttons too.
You can't prove Phil wrong dood. He's gonna sue ya now for copyright...... Big ups bruh, the problem Phil has with MK1 is like all other fighters he tries to play it like Super Turbo. He was literally trying to do Hadouken's the other night when his audience told him its not Street Fighter, do button taps....
I learned about DSP years back thanks to you, so it's makes me happy to see to refer to him as how you shouldn't act towards struggles like the Down 1 spam, lol! But yeah, this'll come in handy for when my friends need to learn about the game. I know they'll get a kick out of the DSP bit.
I actually welcome the FGC content creator timeline where it becomes a standard order of practice to use DSP clips as a foundation for guide / education videos.
Its been great following your cintent over the years, i dont play every fighting game you post but i started off here from dbfz and I definitely became a better fighting game player since all your vids:)
Excellent informative video. As someone who wants to take this game seriously, I didn’t even know this in the slightest and you got right to the point. Really appreciate it. Thank you for the hard work.
Damn dude, i have watched this video twice. First time when i just started to play the game and i didnt get anything from it, but when i started to struggle in grandmaster i watched this video second time and got boosted up to semigod instantly. Thanks a lot.
Throws are treated as highs sometimes in mashing situations like this. I've been having problems with this as well people mashing d1 after -6 -7 and getting the turn again even before I can throw the game is fun but I wish this wasn't a thing.
Really enjoyed the Video Roofle, however at 5:10 I’m not sure I agree. -8 is barely punishable, you have to react instantly to get that punish which often won’t happen. Another trick that you don’t mention that I personally use myself is down 1 into special move. If the opponent mashes down 1 back, they get hit by the special. It’s risky but works very well on mashers. You’ve inspired me to make a video like this as-well and get my knowledge out there too 😃 Let’s all beat mashers together! Great video 👍😄
Very nice video. Concise and informative. 👍 Never seen him lose it so must until that Scorpion fight and didn't realize down jabs were an issue, at all.
Never would have guessed you were a fellow DSP detractor lol. When I saw the thumbnail I said “lol DSP should watch this” and then you mentioned him directly. Hilarious
Lol it's so funny that DSP is so elitist while he literally needs to play the tutorial. It has a section on frame advantage and the crouching jab. I know that not everyone replays tutorials when they've been playing fighters for years but it's always worth to check in and get a refresher.

Never would have guessed you were a fellow DSP detractor lol. When I saw the thumbnail I said “lol DSP should watch this” and then you mentioned him directly. Hilarious
Lol it's so funny that DSP is so elitist while he literally needs to play the tutorial. It has a section on frame advantage and the crouching jab. I know that not everyone replays tutorials when they've been playing fighters for years but it's always worth to check in and get a refresher.
I am pleasantly surprised that I am enjoying MK1. Great upload
DSP really getting around these days, feels like 2013 all over again
This was really frustrating me as a Shao player since so much of my stuff is a high starter, so thanks for the video!
This guide makes NO sense, DSP clearly stated that he couldn't do anything, so nothing can be done, period.
Omg thank you. Seriously best guide.
Dsp did nothing wrong. Okay snort.
Perfect. Even the outro song. Capcom vs SNK 2
Yes…Raiden sucks…smh
Raiden is crazy good in this one for sure.
Thanks, very informative. This game is great but very overwhelming for a new MK player, your vids are helping a lot !
