He’s unnecessarily slow. From a cage main perspective, Cage can get in his face and counter so much of his kit, despite Quan Chi’s zoning advantage. Most characters can kinda zone out Cage if they predict his movement right, but Quan Chi is lacking because he’s so slow. Plus he doesn’t have amazing neutral gameplay, so it’s almost always down to luck if you hit. I personally hate fighting Quan Chi, but as I got better, I realized that getting in with him is unfairly easy and I hate it. Quan Chi is almost pure zoning and Cage is a rushdown. I don’t like that Quan Chi suffers from his slowness.

a yes ass frames, literally the worst down 1, you need cameo or bar if you want a real mix up and combos mix up whit low requers 2 bars, low health, and if you think zoning nop his zoning is ok, reiko has better proyectiles
The reason Ermac wasn't played as much in tourney is because his gameplay heavily relies on rushdown to overwhelm the opponent into mix-ups, but the name of the game is to play lame- and that's just not quite as possible with Ermac. Ermac is definitely top 10; tourney doesn't ultimately decide the best characters because everyone is playing scared, and doesn't want to take any risks.

@@rc2788 Johnny has the plus frames to take full advantage of his rushdown style. Johnny wasn't even nerfed that much; he's still #1 on the roster, despite what TrueUnderdog thinks. What doesn't make sense is you thinking every rushdoen character has to play like Johnny. No. That is boring, and no one would watch or play MK1, if that were to be the case. Every character on the roster is unique for a reason; It's for creativity. Please, use deductive reasoning BEFORE you start entertaining yourself. 🤦♂️

Rain is definitely an NRS fave. Some trivia: Ed Boon is an enormous fan of Prince and loves the song Purple Rain. Now take a look at the character with that in mind :) Great video as always!
The only main thing I disagree with is smoke. If u pair him with sareena online where it’s hard to react to his either low or overhead combo starter, u don’t have to use his cancel to combo off it either, ur just use her scythes. Smoke/sareena is the most common team I see for smoke online

Sure but their chip damages is freakin insane plus the button mashing on barakas 4444 and his 2 1 down forward 2 along with cyrax's full bar propeller is annoying af.
Glad to see Peacemaker get the nerfs, the broken cheese needed to stop lol I agree with the input on smoke, having to master 'vapors' just to be an effective toon, does seem like allot. He's still hella fun though. I am surprised on Tanya, doesn't come off as that strong a toon. Rain got crazy buffed. But, so did Geras just recently. I am wondering, if your list is based off pre-patch or current?
I think they should make haviks strings faster and being able to cancel is arm launcher the same way ermac and rain can cancel and continue with the combo since it’s so slow slight damage buff and new moves and new launchers and taking away the gaps he has except for the grab one I just think he needs to be faster also being his projectiles stronger and faster and if the projectiles already out it shouldn’t get cancelled out if he is hit bc it makes no sense for that to happen
Good vid boss
I think garris is scarier than people give him credit for, that Sand a trap change made it so that s12 and f24 both get a full combo mid and corner, Movado lets him get full combos off his command grab and regular throw, trimmer. Lets him get full combos off his command grab and regular throw, trimmer. Also lets him get armor breaking 50/50s anytime he decides to do a combo and end it with 1221+3, plus the consistent launcher and different combo routes both cameos offer him. The inevitable being 21 frame startup now means that if you so much as here or see any projectile on screen or any normal, instant time freeze into combo into another clock setup. However, buffing the raw command grab is a damn good idea, drives me nuts that the only way to make the command grab lethal is in the corner where it does 19% if you throw them out of the corner, trimmer is the only Cameo I have found that I can convert off the side of switching grab. So it becomes an actual threat then, but it takes a full Cameo bar for it and a little bit of setup since the best I found was using the inevitable snap after ambushing into the low ground pound to side switch to put them back in the corner and keep comboing
I don’t think GERAS is really that low. He has some of the craziest setups I’ve seen and he’s quite versatile in my opinion. I recommend watching domoralize as he’s the best GERAS and uses him very uniquely.

Than you have his attacks, most are highs which let people down poke you the second you start an attack. He has a mid but it’s extremely slow!!! Like16 frames start up or something dumb like that. None the less he has an unblockable grab but you can down one and turn into a problem for peacemaker if he tries it.

I really don't like the whole, let's destroy the top tiers method of balancing. All you did is make two characters unappealing, and there will always be some new busted af replacement. It would be better to make the characters meet halfway. Nerf the top tiers less, buff the low tiers more.
I haven't finished the video yet but seeing as we're in the plz buff tier and Geras still hasn't been put on the list makes me so upset. I just started learning this character and he's so fun but I really feel his issues :(
Raiden’s chip was massively nerfed, I’m pretty sure Scorpion has better chip damage now.
Favorite KZreadr
I don't game allot really. Today I played Mortal Kombat 1 twice, that is how much I love this game. I still get confused on which kameos to put with which characters but over all I am really enjoying this game.
So will the final 8 not just be Johnny and Peacemaker now? (I guess not the latter because of how he got nerfed) And everyone still using chameleon and kano as cameos?
So which main fighters and cameos are tournament viable?
Tier's out guns out! 💪
Rain is him
Omni-man slept on? Are you on drugs? Every other match is against an Omni-Man.
I picked up Li Mei as soon as I got the game so I’ve been sitting pretty
When did the update release? I just turned on my ps5 and there was no update
Not gonna lie i feel that NRS has a straight vendetta against havik. No buffs since season 1. But constant indirect nerfs. All the while glaring flaws all over eg. Projectile startup. Or the so easily interruptible back 22 which is his only actually viable string and also the fact that his down 1/4 doesnt cancel into anything unlike everyone else or even jails. And the biggest culprit a lack of instant armour move. 3 hits of enhanced armour means nothing if the opponent can just casually take a nap and react to it or be so slow the armour can be easily broken like by liu or even mileena. I dont know why NRS is not buffing but nerfing him instead.

Wow! My boy Liu Lang is S Tier. I like that. I always thought Liu Kang is A Tier but you shocked me on that one!
Nitara is one of the scariest characters to fight when she is in the right hands and wirh the right kameo. Ermac I would rate higher too ...
Unpause I was sleeping on Kitana 😈
Do they allow the ninjas to have extra cheese every game? I get an up block or its clearly my turn and sub zero, smoke, or scorpion, can jump out of immediate grab attempt. Scorpion seems like he can jump over any projectile or clear hit in time while other characters can get hit by my attacks. Lastly, i don't think the dev team plays this game online before release. You almost need computer like speeds to react to hits and kameos online.
Ninja killa was using Milenas movement gimmick months ago
That's how you use Pause 😂They not like us😂
Where's your Buddy Diff?
UnderDawg in your opinion who's the best Character to use for the average casual player that's a not that good like me?
Scorpion has some really good mixups his >A+Y >O+triangle >B+Y is really good you can give so many teleport cancles and predict alot of things and air spear chain combos it jumps from 20% to like 50% and you only need like 2 bars its pretty easy to play him I'm not saying hes top there but he is still should be and the very good tier
Facts about Smoke. He's a Yolo fighter.
MY REALM GOT DESTROYED THANK YOU TRUEUNDERDAWG
As a li mei main I’m surprised that you put her in very strong I think she have to be in lacking I love her but she still needs buffs
This was a pretty good list. I would only probably personally put Scorpion up a little higher, but I still think this list feels about right with everyone.. Well, okay, I would probably rate Scorpion, Reptile, and Ermac higher personally, lol.. But I'm still good this! 🔥👍 #MK1🔥🐉
I’m surprised Quan chi isn’t further up
You should rank bottom up to finish with the top characters.
Baraka is definitely not lacking 😂
And watch as when all of this becomes outdated when Tekada and the Kombat pack 2 characters come out. Oh Trueunderdawggaming I have seen from interloko and the grunt noises that sound like Kotal Kong are indeed his voice lines and to prove this if you do chapter 15 of story mode and you choose Gearus when Kitana gets tackle you get to hear Kotal Kongs grunting

Are Li Mei’s buffs really that good?! Her reversal lion lick against d1s was already there. She forces players to rely less on d1s. Her 4312 string has no gap now, right? But it still starts as a high. Exploding her own lantern will make it hit mid now but the horizontal range is still bad. Her f3 has faster recovery but still not that useful imo. I’m not complaining and I’m a Li Main. I was gonna be excited about her mid lantern but it doesn’t seem that different. Also, her combo damage with Janet got nerfed. Omni-man can do about 41-46% damage mid-screen, no meter AND no kameo 😵 He isn’t as stubby as Li Mei. Fujin is my fave’ MK character so I can admit he was tops in 11. I’ll hold out on where to place Li Mei but I can see how Li Mel could be top 10. Not too surprising.
atleast i can still play kenshi

That’s crazy you put Mileena that high considering she has ZERO safe combos each one can be upblocked for crazy damage. Each one of her Sai throws are by far one of the worse in the game on BLOCK, they can’t hit full screen and if you throw them up close -16 standing on block & low Sai is -23 on block.
