Sheeva's 2nd variation, Deadly Dragon, is about plus frames. She has a special that can be hit confirmed to guarantee a followup a hit/throw mixup off of every touch. It's not a combo variation. Both V1 and V3 hit higher damage combos, so it'd be silly for V2 to be a combo variation.

ehh, I'd have to disagree, v2 is definitely the one you pick for combos. A combo variation doesn't necessarily have to be higher damage. v1 and v3 might have higher damage, but they're niche, whereas v2 combos off of anything cause of dragon charge. It does have nice plus frames off of the spin, but Sheeva already has fantastic plus frames off of her strings that you can get strike throw mixups off of in the same manner. Not to mention the fact that v3 is much better for mix anyhow. I personally think v2 is still a combo variation just because you have significantly more combo routes, which is what a combo variation would be about. The plus frames are just a perk of that variation, but it's definitely not the centerpiece.

@PNDKM

3 жыл бұрын

@@williamcalhoun883 That's why i always talked about V2 as a combo variation, because you can combo the shield into most things, which is always important for characters that otherwise have limited pathing. V3 having Death March is similar at least, but every time I see good sheeva's use V2, it's for the dry keepaway and the conversion/whiff punish potential. Always happy to hear about other playstyles though.

I don't like how they made sheeva look in mk11. the part I can't really articulate well is the hair, I changed it immediately because I don't like her base hair but I really don't know what they did with it. the part I can articulate is that they gave her much softer facial features and to me that doesn't really look like Shiva, in previous games her face looked feminine but strong.

Is it just me or MKA's Sheeva looks really good design-wise compared to like every other MK game ?

Armageddon Sheeva's HTH probably had the boss block animation as an incidental carryover from it being one of Goro's HTH styles in the PSP & Gamecube ports of Deception

I told this story in the MKT meta video but back in my childhood i'd visit family in dominican republic every summer. And in DR there are gaming club/cafe where you can pay to play their large library of video games. Here me and my cousins would play MKT on N64.

I can’t get enough of your channel. Absolutely love it. Thanks for all the content!

Just got done rewatching this entire series! So well done! I think diving into the competitive history of Frost would be amazing! Maybe a video going over guest characters and their viability? Either way I'm stoked for more

One of the arcades at Metrotown in Vancouver/Burnaby BC, Canada was fortunate enough to get the early builds of MKIII. In the second build of the game, Sheeva was broken. Her Tele-Stomp effectively infinited, and it was really hard to avoid because it's startup was so good. Once I (for fun) beat the game with her by just flicking the joystick non-stop, so she just stomped all the way through the entire game. Including over Motoro and Shao Khan. Took no damage. That build didn't last long, though. By the next weekend it was updated. Good thing, because she effectively made 1v1 unplayable if anybody picked her. I wouldn't be surprised if this wound up being why she was made so bad. It's possible they just could not balance her. I think I managed to play all the early builds of this game. A 7-11 not far from my mother's also got an early MK2 build. Vancouver seemed to get a lot of sweet arcade stuff. This version of MK2 had Sub Zero able to do the freeze portion of his Freeze and Shatter fatality during a match. It was unblockable and you didn't defrost. If you had the life lead, you just won. I understand live testing games; but a few of these things I am surprised even made it into any live build at all. How do you not catch these in quality control?

Good stuff! However, Sheeva can "escape" the corner trap in UMK3 by buffer the teleport stomp while blocking. This will make a juggle i.e. pushback the player who does the corner pressure. In some scenarios, she can even do the Teleport through the jabs in corner!

Great vid Fun facts. On the SNES version of UMK3 she was removed from the rooster; but she wasn't totally deleted, allowing a lot of bugs. In MK3 on SNES, her friendship wasn't programmed properly, and cant be performed.

17:18 Robocop lookin like Daredevil from the Netflix show

So I have a question. In the SNES, there was a cheat/glitch to play with an invisible Sheeva in UMK3. Obviously she wasn't used in competitive play, since she could even glitch the game, but it got me thinking... if that wasn't the case, do you think she'll be viable? Would be completely invisible at all times save her?

I remember one time at a MK3 arcade where 2 guys where playing against each other only using sheevas umblockable stomps, it was soo stupid and they had like a lot of arcade coins soo even after i and other kids defeated then easily they just keep doing that, that day those guys made most kids leave or play another machine (since MK3 was the most wanted at the time)

Hey man, that stomp in MK3 was the most broken move in the world when I was 5 years old.

Love this series!

Thank you for yet another amazing video. You guys rule.

Even though Sheeva was bad in MK9 she was always my go to pick as a kid since she could really cheat the AI in ladder

Great video as always but...You have a terminator clip from the movie in your competitive history playlist lol (that mistake happends to me a lot too and idk HOW haha) and the sheeva video isn't listed there also. Just trying to help and again great video bro!

I actually really grew to like her in mk9 and started to mess around with her in the older games. great vid.

sheeva does rlly well on the ai matches in mk11 for me at least with the build im using

5:54 looks pretty high tier to me 😵‍💫🫣😍

That MK9 set was really cool to watch. Would love if you referenced real footage after character analysis more. Especially for MK9 and up.

Her mk11 f443 string looks so similar to the umk3 hk hk lk bhk Great call back from NRS!!!

She is on my auto-pick when UMK3 came out. She is my go to pick at arcades and tournaments. Even though my favorite character is Shang Tsung, Sheeva will be my warrior queen at actual Vs modes. Picked her up quickly too. The highest combo I ever made with her at the arcade was 8 to 10 hits... not bad for someone who never played with joy-sticks before. Using SNES controller I reached 13 hits most of the time and 17 hits at so-so. I would love to see how I am with Sheeva in the MK11 game. She looks so awesome and radical in that game. Love the many style they gave her, but still retains all of her classic moves too. 😎👍

I can't wait to see what characters you cover next in this series. (I personally would like to see the joker covered at some point even though he isn't really an MK character)

I'm hoping for Baraka or Kabal next up :D You guys have been making so much stellar content lately! 2020 needed stuff like this. Keep up the great work Ketchup! ❤️

I know it's probably never gonna happen anytime soon. But my favorite MK Kharacter is always gonna be Kabal... I honestly can't think of a single game where Kabal has ever been bad

What puzzles me the most is both Goro and Sheeva had the tele-stomp in Armageddon, but the inventor of the Tele stomp, Kintaro, didn't have it in armageddon.

I remember when I was a kid, playing UMK3, and when I wasn't using cyber Smoke, I would pick Sheeva against certain players or characters and all I really knew how to do was stomp, ground pound, and 7 hit canned combo. That's pretty much all you needed at the arcade against the average player.

I still think her mk Armageddon default costume is her best look.

Looking at what we got on MK3, I'd say the initial idea for Sheeva was having a high risk/high reward character, easy to hit but that you don't wanna get close to... a Zangief, but without the grappling part (though her grab was good i don't feel it counts)
