I could get it down in the practice mode eventually but I dont have the patience to do it and since I play manily online, that makes the incentive for practicing it even lower lol

I feel you lol
My only interests is offline and tournaments. I was waiting for kitana to be a playable character lol for a long time. Then NRS finally remembered her however during this time I played way to much ermac and I like this guy.
As the countless numbers hunger for worldwide renownI tried to gather all usefull combos in one video. So here you go
)
Sure. Done.@zaf
can you pls include unbreakable combos to to first post. Thanks
Below MoS combos should work out of all starters.
f4~SoulBall, SoulRelease, SoulBurst Up, xray = 47% 3Bars
f4~SoulBall, SoulRelease, ex SoulBurst up, ex TKL, ex Burst = 37% 3 Bars (i know... you can just xray for more damage... but swag
f4~SoulBall, SoulRelease, ex SoulBurst up, ex TKL, SoulBurst = 35% 2 Bars
f4~SoulBall, SoulRelease, ex SoulBurst up, SoulBurst = 33% 1 Bar (only in corner)
f4~SoulBall, SoulRelease, SoulBurst up, ex tkl, SoulBurst = 32% 1 Bar
f4~SoulBall, SoulRelease, ex SoulBurst up, lift = 31% 1 Bar
f4~SoulBall, SoulRelease, SoulBurst Up, Soulburst = 31% no Bar (only in corner)
f4~SoulBall, SoulRelease, SoulBurst Up, lift = 28% no Bars
Do you notice how the opponents animation for b312 is weird with this combo at the end?Well its hard to keep track of everything
These are the iasb combos i got. All relatively easy too if you land an ex iasb.
midscreen
ex iasb, ex tkl, b12, f4~SoulBall, jip f21d2, runcancel 4~burst (35%)
ex iasb, ex tkl, b12, f4~SoulBall, jip f21d2, runcancel b1d2 (32% hardknockdown)
ex iasb, ex tkl, f21d2, run cancel b12~SoulBall (28% into vortex)
corner
ex iasb, b12, s4~SoulBall, jip f21d2, njp, uppercut, uppercut (41%; puts yourself in corner)
ex iasb, b12, s4~SoulBall, jip f21d2, b12, f4~Burst (38%; oppenent stays in corner)
ex iasb, f4~SoulBall, jip f21d2, njp b321 (37%; hard knockdown)
ex iasb, b12, s4~SoulBal, jip f21d2, b12, b1d2 (36%; hard knockdown)
ex iasb, b12, f21d2, s4~SoulBall, jip f4~burst (36%; keeps opponent standing in corner)
ex iasb, b12, f21d2, s4~SoulBall, jip b12 (32% into vortex)
ex iasb, f12d2, 34~SoulBall, jip b12 (30% into vortex)
ex iasb, b12, 4~SoulBall, jip f21d2, b12, f4~ex tkl, run cancel uppercut, uppercut (44%; 2BARS; puts yourself in corner)
NOTE:these can be done mid screen or anywhere really.
why waste 1 bar when you can do same damage meterless?Anyway....for combos, I'll probably post some vids too but was messing around after the latest update for hours last night. Ermac has so many different combos it's crazy which is what I love about him.
Here's mine, hope you guys like
Jump in 2, 2, 2, 2~soul ball(B,F2), jump in with 2, F+2, 1, D+2, Jump Kick, (D,B4)Teleport punch, (D,B1+Block)EX TK Slam, uppercut=14 hits 40% damage
Neutral Jump Punch, 4~soul ball(B,F2) Jump in 2, F+2, 1, D+2, EX TK Slam(D,B1+block), dash uppercut =10 hits 36%(NOTE: for some reason I did this same combo and ran under the guy to the other side and it did 38%) IDK what that's about...lol take that as you will. P.S. if you do EX soul ball and EX TK Slam this combo will do 40%.
Jump in 2, F+2, 1, D+2, F+4, ex soulball(B,F2+block), B,F+1 pop up, NJP(up and 1 or 2), early jump punch, EX TK Slam(D,B1+Block), uppercut=12 hits 40%
Jump in 2, F+2, 1, D+2, F+4, soulball(B,F2), B,F+1 pop up, jump kick, ex TK slam(D,B1+block), Jump Kick, teleport punch(D,B+4), Force Blast/Vicinity Blast(D, B+2)=12 hits 40% NOTE:this combo is both flashy looking and only uses ONE bar of meter for good damage, totally worth it but may seem like thinking outside the box here but hey damage is damage lol.
Jump in 2, 2, 2, 2~soul ball(B,F2), jump in 2, F+2, 1, D+2, Jump kick, teleport punch(D,B+4), EX Tk slam(D,B1+Block) soul burst/vicinity blast(D, B2) =14 hits 39%
Jump in 2, 2, 2, 2~soul ball(B,F2), jump in 2, F+2, 1, D+2, Jump Kick, teleport punch(D,B1), EX TK Slam(D,B1+Block), Throw=16 hits 40%
I have more, just have to write them down via recorded clips.
You can do a bit more damage out of those string. Out of the 222 string you can get ~40% without using the bar.Anyway....for combos, I'll probably post some vids too but was messing around after the latest update for hours last night.

Ermac needs them for other cool stuff
1 Bar isn't really a waste since Ermac gains it back quickly. Two bars or more sure but one bar is nothing to me. I do a lot of air cancels which gain meter. Plus, that and remember online sometimes the B1, 2, F4 doesn't always cancel. This one guy I was doing similar combos and kept whiffing was actually quite annoying lol so this is another reason why I substitute it with some other combos. He has many(no pun intended) lol
It's fine, I don't post here too often so you're probably unaware that I have used Mac since day one lol, remember Ermac also gains meter FAST so 1 bar isn't a big issue for me.You can do a bit more damage out of those string. Out of the 222 string you can get ~40% without using the bar.
- jip, 222 SoulBall, jip, f21d2, jik teleport, b12 f4 burst is (41% meterless)
Lots of variations to do a ~40% meterless without using a bar too. Also i think 43% was max out of 222 so save the bar unless you use it at the start and go for vortex.
Neutral jump without bar
- njp, f3~teleport, f21d2, run cancel b12~Soulball, jip b12 (33% vortex)
- njp, f3~teleport, b12, f4~SoulBall, jip b12 (31% into vortex)
- njp, f3~teleport, b12, f4~SoulBall, jip f21d2, run cancel b12~burst (39% meterless)
You can end the last one with whatever for the same damage or extend it with a bar for a bit more damage. Hard knockdown should be little less.
F21d2 starter is a the same thing as the 222.
Dont get this the wrong way friend... dont want to be a jerk or something... just saying, keep the bars if you
These combos are just some of my favorites personally but it's good that with the latest update, his damage output is higher on the sb.
1 Bar isn't really a waste since Ermac gains it back quickly. Two bars or more sure but one bar is nothing to me. I do a lot of air cancels which gain meter.
It's fine, I don't post here too often so you're probably unaware that I have used Mac since day one lol, I just don't post a lot of my tactics but remember Ermac also gains meter FAST so 1 bar isn't a big issue for me. Plus, I do a lot of air cancels for mind games so trust me that one bar means little to me lol. By just doing the flight and disappear you gain meter(since that is considered a special move) Another thing, I've also noticed for some reason, some of these combos I posted do MORE damage to different characters like Jacqui, I did the 40% ones and it showed 42% one bar which isn't bad at all lol. I taped it so I can post it if you'd like to see. So there's also that to consider different damage output depending on character.
The votex I know about but believe it or not I don't always do it, I'm more of a zoning player so for me I don't always rely on vortex's, resets etc. I do a lot of air cancels in my game and combos when practical. But appreciate the post none the less. All good though, I've been using Ermac since day one he's pretty much my main but I also use KJ(Ancestral and Shaolin)
I've also seen quite a few combos here using 2 bars that do less damage then some of the ones I posted so I think everyone is different with combos especially, there's combos in here I'd never thought of and some have told me online the same lol. Guess we're all unique but hey we all use Ermac so that's what matters
Well yeah, now you can with the latest update buff as you said, indeed but I also don't mind spending one bar since Ermac gains it back really fast. This doesn't bother me, I have also noticed the damage output is different on certain characters. Jacqui for example, the 40%(one of the ones I posted) did 42% one bar is worth it, of course meterless good damage is always a + but one bar to me is worth 40%+, since I'll gain that back quickly. Just my opinion on that topic of course. This is one thing I noticed not a lot of people seem to talk about with Ermac or characters in general. Ermac gains meter fast. Most of the time I've found I spend one meter and save the rest for breakers or rarely the Xray to finish someone off.
I tend to go for damage lots of the times as well as i am not a fan of vortex and 50/50 galore either. But extending combos outside of vortex or for vortex setup is a waste in my oppinion - at least for most combos. Its so little damage that you can just not do it and us an ex-burst/ex-tp on block and you get same/more chip :-/ Further i agree that online timing can be a b*tch, but for example the combo with 222 i mentioned does ~40% even if you would cut it short; removing the b12 iss just 1% less i believe.1 Bar isn't really a waste since Ermac gains it back quickly. Two bars or more sure but one bar is nothing to me. I do a lot of air cancels which gain meter. Plus, that and remember online sometimes the B1, 2, F4 doesn't always cancel.

Yeah that one particular combo seems practical the 222 one that you and metzos listed, and shouldn't be an issue online so that's good. I agree for the most part, only thing I may not do(very risky) is the random EX SB(unless it's already part of a combo) because if they block it or jump/avoid it that's just a bar wasted know what I mean? I'll admit though aside from me doing tons of air cancels, wah wahs lol to gain meter faster with my style aside from not minding to at times spend one bar I just enjoy unique combos you know? Like you said, can never have too much combos to spend meter on lol. I enjoy variety, this thread is loaded with it for Ermac MOS especially which is awesome.
Yeah, but the thing with those combos is online effected a lot of the RC ones which really annoyed me lol. Ever do a mid combo going on then LAG spike lol, kills it instantly. Used to really annoy me so I said screw it, I'll go with safer connected combos lol. I play a lot online, I know offline this isn't an issue of course. I know Ermac can't zone as well as MK 9 did, without the TK push no doubt but he can still zone and play great head games with air cancel like MK 9 is an element not a lot of people took advantage of and honestly I don't know why. Canceling the fall in mid air with the wah wah(disappear) lol into NJP combos or random tps you'd be surprised how often this screws with someone's head. But anyway, of course now with with run it really nulifies zoning in general. Personally, I could have been fine with the longer dash but whatever...lol
If Predator has strong zoning abilities or is strong in any way beside simple rushdown or 5050.... ppls will cry about it 24/7 in like a hundred threads & he will share the same fate Tanya has to endure now.
lol true, I just hope with MK 11 NRS does something to incorporate zoning again and not just the aggressive player ie running mechanic. I mean sure it's good for getting in but most matches probably a good portion don't even use it outside of RC combos you know? Just a shame but hey MK is always evolving, changing I'm sure at some point again we'll see a zoning game or characters again. It's why I love using KJ ancestral and get shit for it all the time lol deemed as "cheesy or cowardly" apparently because I keep people far...lol
Check the parts of your post i highlighted.Yeah that one particular combo seems practical the 222 one that you and metzos listed, and shouldn't be an issue online so that's good.

Here's to Ermac! I just miss his zoning abilities not being as solid as MK 9's but hey the run will do that I guess *shrugs*

Yeah I agree the range does suck on the B3 why I rarely use it, Though I have used it on jip, B3, TKS ex, in a close match that 50/50 can make a big difference when mixed up with his launcher combo and 222..
I am also I wont lie not a the biggest fan of RC combos, very risk/reward and in a close match that can cost you. I've done the vortex and such and meterless 40% earlier one I just felt they were a pain most of the time, so I turned to more practical ones that'll connect easier. The last combo you posted though I'll check out, seems practical and not insanely difficult to time on or offline. Which is good, plus you save meter. Though for my combos I still hope you guys enjoy them, they're more flashy some of them anyway than vortex combos but hey I don't mind.
Yeah, I am hoping Predator has a good zoning variation. IDK about you but the running really does limit zoning tactics in MK X, probably my one beef lol along with RC combos. Other than that, I enjoy MK X. But as another Ermac player I'm sure you know what I'm referring to with zoning the hell out of your opponent lol.
Besides, negative edge effects those combos you listed half the time and just aren't practical. I'd rather spend one meter and get the 40 guaranteed over risk vs reward no meter combos.
