I always wonder, like do they feel better after you've taken 80 percent of their life and they do wake up yolo x ray. Is that considered an accomplishment?

Xrays can turn the momentum.

And as always... my philosophy is, make them prove they can punish you or keep their frames tight enough for a trap. If not, get hit bruh.

All of these are quitality-punishable. The opponent will probably yank out the wall plug if you beat their "unbeatable tech".

Mileena: Roll after blocked Roll
Usually when I get a flipkick blocked as Cassie, I'm holding block praying I don't get punished. Clearly I'm doing it wrong. I should take a page out of mileena's book, and do another yolo roll after the first one is blocked.

You can just block high against Mileena and punish with 112~quitality.

Kitana: D1 after blocked point blank fan.
I know I'm -8 after a fan is blocked, but this is online MKX, where frames go to die, let me just D1 to continue my offense.

D4 into quitality.

Kung Jin/ Ferra Torr: NJ punch
I love match starts against online Kung Jins. There is nothing more predictable then a match start against Kung Jin. NJ punch FTW. I'm pretty sure Jin has a lower back tattoo dedicated to NJ punches. And why Torr is allowed to swing Ferra around like a rag doll is beyond me. Someone please call child services and report this brute.

I like to start the match against these with a dashcancel into njp into full combo. It automatically combos into quitality.

Full Auto Jacqui: Gunshots
Not much explanation needed here. It's always a treat though to see how the react once you're in their face.

Yeah the moron that thinks this is Counter-Strike or something. I combo air fireballs into quitality.

Whole cast: pokes
Block fan? Poke. Kotal blocked shoulder charge? Poke. -7? poke. -11? Poke. Poke gets blocked? Poke again. Seriously the online scenes obsession with poking is very much real.

Block into poke back into spamming d4 until they try to jump, njp into quitality combo.

The excessive jumping it throws my game off, i hate when i play a laggy jump happy person, its fucking annoying to deal with.

And ontop of that the hitboxs online are just amazing, kitanas Jip2 is simply horrendous that bitch can catch me from halfscreen with 2 jumps -_-

You can spam D3 with Ermac, and if they block one, the input lag won't allow them to block F4. Sometimes you'll get the rare match without noticeable input lag, but sadly most of the time you'll have at least half a second of input lag online.

Every Kung Jin player is like "Look, mom, i'm on a trampoline".
Goro players are very stubborn as well. They think "That dude just totally punished my telestomp. That must've been an exident. I'm gonna try the same thing 5 more times later that game".
Cassie players can't stop using b12 even when you punish it every time with a flip kick. And i'm not even talking about online Cassie's. I mean, look at Jer vs Yipes matches. b12 is addicting. You can't get enough.

It's no secret MKX online is... Laughable to say the least. There are pretty much 2 metas at this point on for online and one for off. In this online meta, players are able to play the game in a way that simply would not lead to results offline. It also seems that certain characters have a particular way that all players play them in an online environment, some more annoying and head scratching then others.

This are just a few. What do you think? What are scrub online tactics do you see the most often?

I don't know; adapting to those "tactics" won me 3/4th of the ranked matches. I couldn't care less about this BS, though my connection might be better. What bothers me much more is the disconnect once you

- Corner an oponent
- Win a game
- Win a round
- Punish yolo specials
- .....

the reasons to disconnect seem to be endless

Yeah, a lot of people who do that know what they're doing and will get a 35%-40% combo off of it. There's nothing you can do. You just eat the endless D3s or eat the combo. :(

yeah the online is sickening, NRS some how took a step backward in the online department.

what i hate the most, is my combos drop... im demo sonya, should be enough said but ill continue: if i drop one of my stun grenade combos after my 3 grenades are used, i have no grenades. that means no reset, there goes half my game, combos out the window....

  • then im dealing with a steroid induced Liu Kang, mashing, D3 into F44, FF.
depending on the day or luck of this mess of online, its unpunishable, i normally punish after the flame fists after eating a few D3's then i know the F44 is coming so i block it. sometimes i cant block something i can smell a mile away.

  • scorpion inferno, oh yeah, those scrubs that, D3 into grab, or guess what another predictable tele.
  • the Goro safe Punchwalk into spin... yep somehow safe
  • The raiden Superman spam
  • endless barrage of Subs Slide to B2 How are those safe?
love how online it seems like Kotal WG's Are safe on every string, no matter what they have poke down, out range you, endlessly barrage you with BS button spamming, some how turns into what feels like one giant blockstring.

I just picked up Johnny Cage (cause fisticuffs is hype idc) and his bnb f24 d1 f24 nut punch is hard af to do online consistently. Offline I can no problem, but online I drop the second f24 often.
