Great guide but most Lui Kang players just like to use the 3 hit combo that starts with a low hit and rinse repeat. So much potential thrown out the window. It saddens me.
EX Low Fireball works pretty well, from my experienceGreat guide i'v been working on it all morning. Quick question, does anyone know of any move Liu Kang can do on wake up? I'v tried a couple of things but they never worked. I'ts probably something obvious lol. Thx
Having trouble linking the b1 after the second b+312. Is there a trick to it, or do you just need to do it really fast?got 1 for you guys,
d,b+2, d,b+2 b+312 b+312 b1 Bicycle kick 39% wit Enhanced its 42%
Funny that he was doing that. I have actually been using that combo for a while even before the damage nerf. It used to do the exact same damage as 4 reps of (38% pre-nerf) but I did it because it was a more fun combo without being too difficult. Now it's actually the better option.Noticed ATL Redd using this combo at CEO:
dash, dash, xx Bicycle Kick
You get 34% from this. Compared to the standard four iterations of , Redd's combo deals an extra 1% and you build some meter because you used a special move. Not a huge difference between the two, but what, Redd's combo is objectively better and it's not like it's prohibitively difficult to do. The only reason I could see using four instead is because if you carry them to the corner with that combo you get a fifth . But if that's not the case you may as well get the extra 1%.
Oh wow, you're right. That gets you like 37% meterless midscreen. Timing really is strict on it, though. Given that it's only 3% more damage and much easier to drop I'm not sure I'd try it in a real match, but it's good to know you can do it.You can also do 3 reps of into the xx Bicycle Kick or 3 reps of into xx Bicycle Kick but my execution is a little poor and I'm not as consistent with those. If you're more confident with your execution, you can go for those for the best possible damage options.
3 reps of into xx Bicycle Kick does 40% midscreen. If you have trouble linking the Bike Kick, try doing the Flying Kick instead, which nets you 38% midscreen.Oh wow, you're right.

Thanks. I was able to get this after a little practice. Seems like the trick is to get them high enough with the first two juggles. It's possible to hit the second and/or third rep of in a way that makes the impossible to hit. Got to do those two iterations of as early as possible. Once I realized that it was easy.3 reps of into xx Bicycle Kick does 40% midscreen. If you have trouble linking the Bike Kick, try doing the Flying Kick instead, which nets you 38% midscreen.
The Bike Kick one is the highest dmg midscreen combo I've been able to come up with, and it's pretty easy after about a day's worth or practice in the lab.
Yep, i noticed that too, the ability to link the ending depends entirely on how u do the first 2 reps.Thanks. I was able to get this after a little practice.

this is essentially what i've been using for my corner bnb.corner combos you can do b,312 nj 2 dragon stance 1 jf 4 ex fireball or regular and 3 reps of b,312 43%+ or more depends on how well ur timing is after each string...
If you start it with instead of , you'll get more damage. Not sure how much, but it will be more.Liu Kang's 48% Midscreen Combo with X-ray included:

Good stuff. I'm on vacation at the moment, so i can't test it, but is there anything else besides the after the x-ray? I know that 3-hit combo is relatively weak so there might be a more damaging option to put between the x-ray and the Bike KickYes, I know.
