Agreed. His design is incredible. I’m pretty good but still get beat by the cheese in this game. I’m over here dash canceling while Scorp/Ferra is safe on everything and running.
Thank you for making a video on my boy even tho i don't play him with Janet anymore he,s extremely Kameo versatile and fun with everyone. Can you make a video on Reiko next cus i feel like he's more slept on then Ermac and he's really BUSTED ❤
This is awesome, I plan on being a Ghostface main but, I do plan on using these character breakdowns eventually to learn how to fight against certain characters and I’m definitely looking forward to more of these so that way since Ghostface is going to be my main character, that way I can learn to fight against the rest of the roster using your character breakdowns
When I finally decided to learn the game I decided to main ermac and he's not easy to learn for sure. Very enjoyable though with how much freedom his movement offers and he's got solid damage with janet and scorpion, might have to relearn him as a second main to kenshi
I’ve been saying this for so long bro. Ermac is secretly Nuts, he’s literally a slightly worse version of Rain, Safe Jump off Of a Throw Kombo, Safe Jump if he Shimmies you, 53% in the corner, a Insanely good and underrated Mid, that pulls you in, and has large hitbox, unbelievable Comeback Factor, with Glow, Or Without It. Even without Glow, his comebacks are stupid, because it’s one throw Kombo, or Shimmey, into safe jump, into armor breaking Setup, then they eat the EX Low and die
reason nobody plays ermac is clearly because people dont wanna have carpal tunnel after a month of playing ermac. I like the character design but the constant cancels you kinda have to do, nah thanks im good. They are not that hard, you can learn it in an hour pretty much.
@@thomasbruzzese6419I beg to differ, mk11 basically every character is easy but there's multiple characters like kenshi, takeda, ermac, and others who are complicated to master on mk1.
@@thomasbruzzese6419 go lab ermac and tell me how long it takes to get 10 consecutive 12bf3,ffj122; 10 consecutive f2 cancel into f4db22 and be able to "freestyle" long cancel pressure, it's all a matter of consistency and it takes time to build it
The problem is you has hit so so many times to make any damage, Cage and Geraz can hit you 3 times and half the bar is gone, hermac you just has to hit so so many times
I used to struggle as well but once u get the hang of it it's really easy and consistent. Just don't let go the forward/back button before the third hit comes out and try find the timing
I was looking for this comment. I use Janet and I press her button 3 times only. If you press R1 twice consecutively, she'll automatically do two jumps. On the second jump, press R1 as the second punch hits the character and that'll make the 3rd jump come out. Basically press R1 on hit during her second jump. I don't press R1 more than 3 times for 3 jumps. 18:21
Bro , what you think about kung Lao ( character) , How bad is he , and does it have any chances to write NRS nerf freaking characters such as Homelander or sindel
@@zlee5159 b24 on block, cancel. Heres the mindgame: you go for pressure or you backdash b24 again to beat poke and/or look for a confirm. Theres no reason to do b24~EXbf3 when you can go for pressure meterless anyways. Also EXbf3 only jails into d1 so you just spent meter for more fake pressure. You punish pokes, they no longer poke, you go in for pressure after conditioning. If you condition, spend meter on bf3 and they block it, you wouldve been much better off just using that conditioning to throw them for 20% into safejump
The other underrated is Liu Kang, why people say is ok... that mf is broken. 6 frame punish. F4 crazy stupid mid. B2 10 frame mid. Great proyectiles, that EX Dragon, come one, antizoning proyectil. Broken output damage. And... hyper easy to use. Liu Kang is a control, crazy broken char. I'm sad he's so boring to use.
@@EstebanSolanoCordero he gets stomped in the Sindel matchup tho (like almost every character) which is a deal breaker for super high level games. In KL league tho? He’s big body
Scorpion, that’s who I run with my Ermac, good damage off of any touch and you don’t have to be super crazy with the cancels, just hit confirm into the soul grab,bf2, and continue with scorpion, every time on any touch
So here are my suggestions. Lao is great for hard to blockables and for Zoning and counter zoning Sonya is great for onion ring setups and 50/50s Frost is great for Orb loops and having access to the corner at any time Sareena is your best vs Havik and Kenshi for her zoning and constant meterdrain Mavado does a lil bit less than what Janet does but you have a better time vs zoners
Liu actually has a hard time vs Ermac. Your only -7 is S123 which you can live without by not doing it and S21 is cancelable so they're not punishing that. Liu can zone out Ermac/Janet but he has a hard time vs Ermac/Lao or Sareena for the Zoning war and the range Ermac has on his normals really destroys Liu and even when he's winning the Zoning war, Ermac can pop a Death Embrace and boom he has the life lead
@@abofazl_thelion exactly if you you back cancel off s12 or throw off their timing with by do it off s1 and catch them wiffing its death and mental sacks every time
I’m loving all of your new videos. It’s awesome to learn from a legit pro like you. Thank you
this character absolutely obliterates my mental stack when he's got the pressure goin 😭😭
Agreed. His design is incredible. I’m pretty good but still get beat by the cheese in this game. I’m over here dash canceling while Scorp/Ferra is safe on everything and running.
LoL. Yeah. It feels bad to loose to being cheesed out XD.
Loving these I hope you do the whole cast

Reiko is NOT slept on lmao hes just not fun to play his game plan is boring its just command grab then spam throwing stars
This gotta be a series which I need at least once a week

Great video! Ermac is my main since the day he came out. Great video! Dude, can you tell me what controller you’re using?
Keep doing that bro , do it with all characters and great video btw 🔥👏🏻
chill xombat rewind already giving people enough sauce😔
These vids are really good mun, keep em coming
Loving this series of videos
Keep it up G
My favorite character to play, i played him since he got released. Insanely fun and strong
Great content btw, big fan here, Sindel breakdown was very nice.
Who's next... thx bro.
Love these vids. Helps my smooth brain understand.

Loving the Ermac attention but don't get my boi nerfed.
We get it bro you got to elder god
Please paste the buttons on the screen. It Kinda makes it easier to follow.
NRS servers make Ermac misinput like crazy on the cancels
No they dont lmao, skill issue
More!!! More breakdowns!!!
I play someone who plays ermac and I get restood into str8 fucking mix or strike throw game lol. He’s good af
W glaze
@@HandcraftedKOB that’s ahhh. I been asking for games still got my pc just got update it and still get frame drops.
KL boring this season. Just want games
The problem is you has hit so so many times to make any damage, Cage and Geraz can hit you 3 times and half the bar is gone, hermac you just has to hit so so many times
Every time I fight a Ermac player I don’t know what to do about the insane cancels.
u just gotta guess when he’s gonna cancel and either stand up and hit him before he hits you, armor through it, or poke him out of it
@Xombat what do you say about armour on frame 1 on FBs 👀
Just subscribed brutha !! Thought I was lol
Love MkReo type videos
18:20 janet is my least favorite thing about playing ermac because of how much i be spamming my kameo button, and she still not be doing 3

Bro took my title
Was labbing ermac and with goro and Janet. Janet is better off grab and better optis. Goro just gives better combo off sweep and 14% grabs.
Do Mileena next
s3 bf3 ex jails as is plus i’m pretty sure
ermac n cheese
also do reiko walkthrough next 🫣
I got elder god with him last 3 seasons fairly easy, people love to mash and he baits pokes like a god
Bro , what you think about kung Lao ( character) , How bad is he , and does it have any chances to write NRS nerf freaking characters such as Homelander or sindel
18:34 so frustrating. Most of the time i get 2
You have to do so much to get combos going
For me , who know how to play ermac is broken , all the things can cancel and still pressure
Ex bf3 isnt real off of b24 or any other button or string. Even though its plus off of the cancel you can always d1 out of it. Its bunz
its real when he backdash cancels and your wiffing a d1 in his face lol
@@zlee5159 b24 on block, cancel. Heres the mindgame: you go for pressure or you backdash b24 again to beat poke and/or look for a confirm. Theres no reason to do b24~EXbf3 when you can go for pressure meterless anyways. Also EXbf3 only jails into d1 so you just spent meter for more fake pressure.

It couldn't have been a triple buffer nrs? Why nrs?
Its not that hard just learn the timing
@@lufgx it's obnoxious
Goatmac and washedbat 😂😂😂😂 jk love you bro

B2 10 frame mid.
Great proyectiles, that EX Dragon, come one, antizoning proyectil.

ermac lao is the way
Underrated my ass lol
I just don’t like janet, id really want a another kameo that synergizes well
Scorpion, that’s who I run with my Ermac, good damage off of any touch and you don’t have to be super crazy with the cancels, just hit confirm into the soul grab,bf2, and continue with scorpion, every time on any touch

Frost is great for Orb loops and having access to the corner at any time
Sareena is your best vs Havik and Kenshi for her zoning and constant meterdrain
Mavado does a lil bit less than what Janet does but you have a better time vs zoners
Please keep spamming the guides 😂🙌🏼
Love him so much but he’s way too hard to play
Ermac broke
This is definitely not the most uderrated character
Most strings minus 7 so Liu kills this
Liu actually has a hard time vs Ermac. Your only -7 is S123 which you can live without by not doing it and S21 is cancelable so they're not punishing that.
