Hey so in case peeps don't know, the recent patch made it so Darrius can't connect his tornado kick after you do the hold back on pale rider, as it wasn't intentional for you to combo off command grabs probably. Sucks but it's the way it is. :/
Love Reiko's moveset, he feels like an MMA fighter, who specializes in Muay Thai. He has beautiful animations for kicks and takedowns. As a character, I despise Shao Jr. over there, but he's definitely the character I'll main once I get the game.
It’s not Muay Thai at all brother did u see the double leg and the guilotinne throw ? He is straight up wrestler with big meaty punches and crazy grappling entrees
Gotta say this cus i been watchin since the mkx combos but i always seem to come back to this channel cus ur guides are hella helpful and quick so keep up the good work and grind we appreciate you!
@0:49 this game confuses me. I'm doing the exact inputs (confirmed by the input display on the left in practice mode) and my character sometimes just doesn't do the combo. The F124, J21 are fine, but then the last kick never comes out for me...I don't get it.
Yes! I been waiting on your upload, your combo guides are amazingly done and the best for learning the BNBs and then applying nyour own sauce afterwards. Other combo guides lock you into their comfort buttons. Thanks for this Ahmz
What I don't like about other guides is that they get too into what details the character these videos are straight forward the most optimal combos and you figure out the rest on your own
For me, I can do the entire combo with Pale Rider at the end very consistently, but then on the right side, on the left side, I keep getting his running animation. Even when I just do BDF without pressing 1 through 4, he keeps doing his run. I have no idea what I am doing wrong, I can do Pale Rider itself and with other moves from Reiko's movelist, but when I have to do 3, ~ BDF/1 (Pale Rider) he keeps running.
@@Eskimofo13 outstanding pressure, great zone, good combos and overall just has good stats in gen lol (watch rewinds Reiko and you will 100% see why Reiko is so good when played correctly
@@funny2127 he does have multiple plus on block buttons and strings but they’re all highs except for his sweep so you can duck them or the first hit of the strings, his mix is also pretty good but have to be standing on top of them to do enforce it, his zoning is strong but does have a lot of counters like the feat of the zoning in the game with teleports and Kameos, his combo damage is straight terrible though without Darius his meterless is some of the lowest in the game you damn near have to spend all recourses to get 40% (without FB), with the exception of B3 his range is abysmal and his F1 (mid) is like 16 frames which is terrible He’s not bottom tier but he’s close and he needs a lot of help, his combos could use a good damage buff and his command grab shouldn’t be two bars for ex, as for rewind carrying he’s one of the best in the world any character will look godlike when he uses them.
@@The_inconspicuous_sphinx final version has different changes made to the characters meaning some strings may not work the same besides I would like to see some more complex combos
Is anyone else having an issue with the combo with the 1st darrius kameo, 9 times outta 10 it forces me to do the leg slide instead of the grapple even though im hitting the correct buttons, but other times it lets me do the grab its extremely annoying trying to do a combo and it pulls a fully different move when i dont even hit the buttons for it.
One question about 2:53... I do the same 13 hits, but i get 389.0 dmg instead of 404.54... I watched and noticed, that my 3 before last BDF1 does 15 dmg instead of 20... And same with 1:49. How is that possible?
Every time I try to call in darrius he literally goes right past my character instead of going in the middle where I am. Makes no sense please help I’m so confused if there’s something I’m missing
OK so that first guy is an idiot, you have to hold back on the command grab(you know you're doing it right if the side you threw them on is the side he rolls to), and while he's in the air you call the assist, then hold back while the assist is going.
It’s really weird but as soon as ur about to slam their head into the ground you have to hit r1 and then start holding back right after. Still after I stand up I try to do the next grab and my character does a completely different slide move even tho I am not hitting x
I can't get 434 -> BF3 working. I see you inpot BF3 during the third kick, but however and whenever I try inputing BF3 it just doesn't work. Somehow I think I got it off once, but I don't understand what I'm doing wrong. If I input 434 it queues it up, but no matter when or how I enter BF3 after it just doesn't execute it during the combo.
anybody else having trouble getting EX moves out during combos? it legit never comes out for me. Im on ps5. If i do it by itself it comes out just fine. If i do it during a combo it never comes out. I mean never
Oh man I wish I can pull off some of these combos but can’t cause I don’t know if this is an issue with ps5 controllers or just the game where inputs just aren’t registering even though I see that I’m hitting them correctly
As some comments pointed out, turning off release check in control settings might help with executing the suplex grab. The rest is just getting used to the timing. Even with a bunch of practice the move only comes out like 4/10 times.
When I try doing Reiko's Pale Rider move - back down forward 1 it keeps coming out as a forward 1 mid attack ( heavy hook) ? How do I stop this? Is there some timing to it?
I searched for this video because I only knew the F124 J214 combo and felt like learning another so I’m less predictable to fight, so F124, 34~DB3 combo looked right up my alley. But I’m having a really hard time with getting the DB3 off, it feels like it doesn’t let me do anything after 34, any one have any advice? Edit: figured it out, I had to input the special between the animation for 34
If you're using the same opener, then you're still as predictable. Changing the last half of a combo doesn't change how your opponent has to block to stop you.
Buttons differ between consoles and controller layouts, but 1, 2, 3 and 4 are universal in fighting game lingo. It really helps to learn if you're into fighting games, a lot of guides will use this notation.
Love the video. But this tells me reiko aint that good of a character. I don't do most of these crazy cool combos, but I've been trying to main him with at least a good 30% combo under my belt and i can't even utilize it because he just can't open people up. No mix ups at all and they are all incredibly unsafe. Smoke might be cheap but man his mix up game is crazy
@@Bosseroni no bro only Online but who Start on rigth side have a bugged string with the combos Each figth online i have 80-220 ping On mk 11 was ok on mk 10 was ok maybe from germany no good Servers
Please read the description for what the numbers and letters mean, it's really easy! (in MK1 you can't pin moves to the screen yet)
your video IS a piece of shit because you use REPTILE as a boxing bag .
f*ck you and dislike
It’s his fatal blow.
Hey trying to do the Combo at 6:21 but cant get the K [B] input to work he is only doing the normal K any tips
Been waiting for a Reiko guide, no disappointment here, the Darrius combos are especially crazy.
This is an incredible amount of work to edit and make this video with the description in such excellent detail! well done bro.
Weird how he has a spear at character select but nowhere to be found in game.
very true... just the fatal blow I guess
Instead his "range moves" were given by this "red light kicks" so embarrassing....
I find it kinda cool he just throws hands. Saves the spear to Kabob you.
@@viniciuslessa3480Embarrassing what? Don't say stupid things.
He doesn’t use a knife either and he’s got one of those on him lol. I still love playing him though.

this is a great video man, people like you make it a whole lot easier for people like me to get better at the game.
Best combo guides on RUclips, been watching since MKX
Thanks for doing this videos, it helps a lot.
I have been following you since MKX.
For everyone having difficult with doing the pale rider right after the Darius hit I turned release check off and it works everytime now
you saved me so much time, thanks!
Oh shit thanks a lot
Honestly I ain’t mad, Kenshi can wait, I’ve been hyped to learn Reiko
Fax
theres already a kenshi beta guide video idk if it is viable though
That guy is overwhelmed with joy rn

Facts it suck that I don't like him as a character but his fighting style is what I need
I think his fighting style matches his personality very well though

Reiko is one of my top favorites to use in MK1. Along with Baraka, Johnny Cage, Havik & Raiden.
Yes! You my friend are the man 💪🏽 was waiting on reiko
Reiko is so good in mk1, best version of the character
Instantly gravitated towards him! That he has his Armageddon look is a cherry on top.

All your video has been helpful. I am a casual and would like to play a little better. Perhaps going to tournament one day.
kitana next pls, also love the video keep it up :D
Can never get Darrius tornado kick to land during my throw
Same 😑
Input kameo the second you see the characters visually swap side then hold back so you do the no side swap version of the command throw
One day we'll get Ashra video
I knew Reiko could do more but damn this is crazy
Reiko my beloved
One question about 2:53...
I do the same 13 hits, but i get 389.0 dmg instead of 404.54...

GOOD! thanks man. Maybe Kung Lao or Liu Kang next?
Did Darrius got nerfed? i tried literally more than 30 minutes all the ways possible and can't connect his kick in the BDF1 command grab

Plz The General next
i been trying to do 02:53 combo all day and I cannot get the Kameo to come out correctly. any suggestions?
Press the kameo when Reiko is in air, is very easy
OK so that first guy is an idiot, you have to hold back on the command grab(you know you're doing it right if the side you threw them on is the side he rolls to), and while he's in the air you call the assist, then hold back while the assist is going.
The trick will be watching the feet of the opponent, call Darius immediately when you see the feet of the opponent nearly going vertical.
the timing for the bf3 off starters is killing me
ahmz1404 used to main scorpion in mk11 right?
