Man the jiggle physics in this game were crazy, poor Li Mei is probably in so much pain with those things bouncing around

That first stage Li Mei and Johnny Cage were fighting in looks amazing, I think it was called the Dragonfly. The 3d era did have some really cool stages

You are correct it is Dragonfly, deadly alliance had some of the coolest stages in the series

Deadly Alliance and Deception had really beautiful stages. Unfortunately Armageddon was bad and looked bad. The stages and characters models had less textures.
It's actually funny that MK1 Li Mei gets an air-exclusive flip kick, that was born from a bug in KaF. You could set certain specials that weren't meant to be aerial to work in the air and that was one of them.
I really hope to see Kompetitive History of Shang Tsung.

I was just about to type that. (Thank you daddy)
Always saw Li Mei as the female face of the 3D era (counterpart to Kenshi as the male face) for being one of the newcomers of DA that stayed to Armageddon and gameplay at least to a pleb like me stayed consistent. Not so much for her design suprisingly, her SMDA still remains my favourite of hers.
I have a soft spot for Li Mei, and most of the characters from Deadly Alliance. DA was an awesome MK game and I have fond memories of playing that game for hours in my mid-teens. I am very excited for Li Mei's revamped storyline in MK1 and I'm curious how it will go. She appears to have a large role in MK1's story and her role as a trainer for Kitana and Mileena is very interestig. A bit like the Bo Rai Cho for the sisters.
Gonna be awesome seeing her play a major role in a mk story after being a minor side character from DA to MKX. And even better she is voiced and modeled after one of the legendary martial arts actresses Kelly Hu

One of my favorite things about the 3D characters returning is the competitive history coverage you guys will be doing 🔥🔥
Thank you. I honestly didn't expect you guy to do Li Mei until after MK1 was out but I am all for it. Li Mei is one of my favorites from the 3D Era and to see her playable once again is just wonderful
Could we see a competitive history on Goro next?

He is playable in mk trilogy, mk4 , Deception, Armageddon, and mkx, you could also hack the game and play with him in mk9 like they did with Shao Kahn.
Weirdly enough, Li Mei's 4 hit kick, if timed right, you could cheese Moloch in Deadly Alliance. Though the timing is... well, a bit tricky.
Mk meta and competitive history are probably some of my favorite vids ESSPECIALLY for 3d MK since they are such oddball games compared to the 2d
Yes! Good to see you do Li Mei as you hinted in the livestream! 🔥
Damn the old Li mei jiggle physic is crazyyyy😮
great video! always look forward to the competitive histories, great videos for a bath, relaxing and consistently interesting
I never went back and looked at the old Li Mei, since I did that for Tanya back when she came out in MKX and I thought she looked awful. Old Li Mei looks better then I expected though.
This channel is simply phenomenal. I always look forward to these!
I’ve been waiting for another one of these for SO LONG!!!!! THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This was an awesome breakdown of Li Mei. Personally she was my favorite character to play in the beta.
Li Mei in MK1 looks nuts, she looks like the kind of character I'd spend hours labbing. That dragon move she does reminds me of Giovanna from GG St.
This has been the best two months Li Mei fans have ever had. Thanks fam
Great video as always
Mortal Kombat 1 turns every female characters into auntie lol
For me its Li Mei or Sindel as main, I really like Smokes gameplay but Li Mei is such a great looking character.
Liu kang finally got to be the poster boy for mk1 so i think it might be time to see a competitive history of him. Gonna be a long one tho. Just an idea
Let’s go! Li Mei is my favorite female character in MK!
Great overview. I hope you'll do one with Jax soon.
Love the love Li Mei is getting. Def one of my favs from the 3D era. And she came back with a vengeance for MK1. Can’t wait to see her skins. Can QUEEN KITANA be next now? She is long overdue.
I love these videos also would you please do a competitive history of liu kang
I’d love to see a competitive history of skarlet or kitana! Good video as always
Right when I got my dinner ready, thanks guys ✨
Excellent video once again dude. The Li Mei was designed in MK1 is a true reimagination of her, with all the fan service that you would like to see from her 3D MK days to how MK games are now, truly amazing!

new Competitive History video, pog 🍿
Hi Mustard, one of Li Mei's strongest Baji Quan combos goes this route: pop-up, pop-up, 4, FF2. The second pop-up in a row lauches the enemy high enough to allow you to end the combo with standing 4 followed by FF2 special. Hitting an enemy on punish with a pop-up doesn't happen often, but the damage from this combo alone is higher than any combo in her 2nd or 3rd style. This works on the PAL version of the game, so playing at 60 frames should make it even easier.
Iv always liked her and her deception design is still her best design. I'm surprised you are covering her mk1 version since that was a beta and things can change.
CAN’T BELIEVE SHE’S FINALLY BACK WOOOOO
Great video! I’m curious how you’re going to rank the strength of characters in MK1. Would you do it with or without cameos, better yet would you incorporate specific cameos into a future competitive history? Excited for MK1.
I’m so excited to see Li Mei In a 2D fighter.
Can't wait for story of Shang Tsung, I wonder how good was the agefluid sorcerer

Horrible until Deadly Alliance where he was really good, close to top 5. Horrible in Armageddon from what I've heard, really good in IX, and top 10 in XI.

Man these 3D MK games look amazing in hindsight. Deadly Alliance has some pretty back grounds which says alot cause of how sick the 3D era stages are

Not sure if you grew up with them, but they are flawed, there's no getting around it. MK is better in 2D. But they've got a charm to them. Deadly Alliance is the least broken of the 3, and it's more fundamental based. The worldbuilding is the best though

@XXMatt0040XX How you enjoying them micro transactions, at least I can boot up a 3d MK game and not worry about that.
I've always felt the "hate" that the 3D era gets is trying to rewrite history. No one hated those games and they are still fun to play. Also, maybe it's just me but I'm much more a fan of quick snappy combos as opposed to each button being mapped to a specific limb and not being able to sidestep on top of that. Also three fighting styles. I love the newer games but I miss the old combat.

It would be so cool to see a red dragon competitive history video, with both Mavado and Hsu Hao in it. A Drahmin and Moloch video would also be pretty nice, or even a Blaze and Onaga video.
Some of those deadly alliance are certainly something
I really like how unique she looked in DA compared to the other games, I hope they bring that costume back.
with MK1's release and Baraka actually being top tier I would love to see a Baraka competitive history. I don't know much about pre NRS competitive as I didn't get into watching the competitive scene until MK9, but from what I know Baraka has never been good until now. He's been one of my favourite characters ever since the arcade era, and I would love to see how his gameplay changed over the years, but was unable to keep up with most other characters.
Li Mei definitely got lost in the shuffle in deception. Everybody was so excited about the many returning legacy characters that she got a little ignored I think. I've always thought hat she was massively underrated in that game.
I recently got into these vids with the release of MK1 and have wondered why they’re not called “Kompetitive History”
i'd love to see shang tsung in one of these!!
3D MK is my favorite Tekken.
Will you do competitive history of Johnny Cage one day?
I'm hoping for some Science Of MK1, since MK11 and MK1 are just so different with their meter, and Kameo. Plus a remaster of those videos couldn't hurt. It's hard to find channels or forums that explain certain tech and the fundamentals.
Love your guys content - I always make sure to save the video for dinner time for maximum enjoyment 😍 If I could say one thing though - do you guys have something against Kitana on this channel?😂 Not one video about her and it would give you more of a chance to explore games you’ve never covered before like Shaolin Monks! If I could ask for one thing it’d be to give Kitana the praise she deserves in one of these breakdown videos!!

She felt like a Female Liu Kang with a Mix of Sonya and Jax in a Great Way, it’s good to see one of the original 3 from the 3D Era Returns.
Amazing video, but will u maybe make a kitana competetive histroy, benn waiting a year for that, shes my main and Id like to see how she was across the older games 😀
Oh we eating good today!
She was my main during the beta
Competitive history of Baraka!
We're so back
Do kitana next! I love these and she's my main.
Make a Sindel one 💜✨️
I hope gearas is next mainly because of how many of his moves are banned in competitive in mk11
Any plans for Liu Kang competitive history?

For april fools, you could do competitive history of the joker in mortal kombat, because he did appear in two games Competitive history of batman might be funnier though.
Sad that they nerfed her juggs😢
If you do a competitive history on a character that is a kameo in mk1 will you cover there kameo appearance?
