Spam can also be a good thing
What if you're playing someone who turtles, plays 90% defense, and only backs up to wait for you to jump in and then attack you. You keeping your distance and spamming forces them to break out of their shell and go on the offense which in return makes it easier to attack them. Of course that doesn't mean to spam the whole match.

Keep in mind that there are plenty of ways to get around a spammer
It just takes you 5 seconds to build a strategy around it.

can certain characters just not fight that kind of strat?


I don't believe you choosing another character would've changed the outcome of the match against that Jason
This is the point you realize that it's not the character you're using or he's using, it's your defense. Blocking overhead or low.
You don't have to block on reaction yet. Majority of the players online(90%) play in a pattern. So try to recognize the pattern they're playing in and it should be much easier to play against them. As you continue, it'll be muscle memory.

Not claiming to be pro
In fact, I would consider myself average at best
But here are some tips for people who are beginners to fighting games/mkx

-Consistency is everything. Large combos mean nothing if they are extremely difficult and are easily dropped. Consistent low/med dmg > High inconsistent dmg
-Work on spacing. Back Dashes. Forward Dashes. Neutral Jumps.
-Work on combos for specific situations and not just from the neutral stand. Examples of situations : Jumping into standing opponent. Jumping into jumping opponent. Opponent jumping into you standing. Standing 2 character spaces away.
-GRAB. DO NOT FORGET TO GRAB. It opens the opponents defense A FUCK LOAD.
-There is no such thing as being honorable/dishonorable in a fighting game. You do what you can to win and so will they. Learn to adjust because you can. It is a fighting game with a given set amount of tools so if you don't take advantage of it, others will. Even I get frustrated and make remarks/complain, but this is the bottom line. There is only win or lose when it comes to fighting games.


this guy is a true fighting game player. the fgc is very dead on these forums im glad somebody plays

I don't think you should end any combo with an uc if uc means uppercut
Use uc strictly for anti air(jump ins)

If you spam arrow and they can't get around it then that just means they can't adapt. How you feel about it is entirely you, but a win is a win. I don't spam personally because I get bored and feel like it takes no skill personally, BUT if I die to it I don't call them cheap/unfair/unskilled. It's part of the game and there are in fact ways to counter it and if I wasn't good enough to get around it then it is what it is.

This isn't a world competition, national event, or contracted fight. you go into these matches 1v1 no rules set. If it's in the game, it's fair.


kung lao has 2 combos that are 54% with 1-2 bars you use uppercut enders for and a couple corner ones where you can uppercut in the corner and catch them falling on the otherside with forward 1 (might be 2 i forget)

I personally dont like ending with uppercut because of the recovery frame and knock away.

Play meh breh :D
