  • So Mavado is now live for Mortal Kombat 1, the latest in the long line of Kameo characters and as a kameo he is very strong with very powerful abilities! I do not like this character, but even I will admit he is bringing a lot to the table, so lets deep dive on his options and gameplay!
    You can view the patch notes that dropped here: mortalkombat1.bugs.wbgames.co...
    0:00 - Mavado is still a nerd
    2:02 - Landmine is silly
    5:17 - The Wacky Line
    6:36 - Combo monkey ability
    8:27 - Breaking the rules
    10:29 - The Alpha Counter is here
    12:31 - No seriously he's still a nerd

    I HATE MAVADO, but he is a pretty strong kameo in this game. This will not absolve him of his crimes of wasting my god damn time in MK deadly alliance, but its a good start. Like vid if you think Mavado is a bum too

    I think one of his biggest strengths is the fact that he can turn a lot of stray hits into full combos. The way his combo kameo call works, it only comes out when they are in an actual juggle state, in that sense it is a build in Option select. For example, think of all the johnny shadow kicks people randomly get hit by, every one of that kicks can now be a full combo.

    Mavado’s alpha counter feels a lot like Spawn’s armor break move in MK11. Both introduce mechanics that are requested by the player base. In Spawn’s case, armor breakers were then universally introduced to every character (in varying degrees of success) on the roster with ‘season 2’. It wouldn’t surprise if Mavado was a precursor to such a situation in MK1.

    So while watching this video...(i also played him a little be4 coming to work) off the whim, i realize...the way mavado's 2 combo extenders are set up...technically he only has 1 TRUE ambush which is his landmine...the rest are actually like summon calls (hear me out). If u think about it, You use his combo extenders AFTER ur characters animations are done (like a summon), not DURING the attack animation (like an ambush)...the only difference is ur character is not posing...his combo cameo moves are like hybrid summons (if u will)...u have to call him in after a cancellable normal (like a summon) or after a special move...but there is no pose for your character to be in (like an ambush)

    I hope people are seeing that mk1 is getting nuttier and better. People hated 11 then loved it. Mk played like to complain and every time a new game comes out they praise the last game till their very specific characters come in. We begged for 3d characters and if an anime or player came in with nitara it be a massacre. If we keep complaining and asking for changes and characters instead of learning a new game it's gonna hurt the next releases. I think we should have gotten a new dc game or a vs game. When is there gonna be a tag game with mk dc that's on the tag game level. Like it's been leaked that if we keep our heads out of our butt that there was a possibility for a 2v2 game mode. Idk, I'm going off the deep end but a 3v3 mk dc game would kill it or a DC game to try these goofy mechanics would be cool. But injustice games had anime installs so if we had installs and tag between 2- or three characters it be sick. But let it be known files have hinted at a more free form two v two. That we have to support the game 🎯 f we want a strong future. Microsoft has been prepping the ki team and if you don't think that they can release a new ki your crazy because it has the most loyal fanbase. If I was mk I'd have a ki/primal instinct season. But I've only played fighting games since they were invented.

    Honestly, of the big 3 FGs out, I'd say for my money that Mortal Kombat is actually on-top, when it comes to characters. Like somehow, Mavado is remotely "cool" character, at least in gameplay aspect. They really are putting their heart out for DLC and it's honestly nice to see. Nothing against T8 or SF6, but MK got that nice output of DLC. In a years time, we are getting 6 characters and 5 Kameos. Granted, T8, obviously a 3D Fighter is much harder to just throw a character into the game, given how many moves you gotta put into that one character and change the animations slightly. But SF6 ooohh my, I WISH we had the MK treatment of DLC in terms of characters. And I'm saying this as a SF fan. So good job NRS :)
