    MK11 Not Returning as Evo 2020 Mainstage game

    I ain't even mad. At this point, I can say I tried really hard to like this MK11 for what it is, but it's just bland and not very fun. Also, I'm pretty disgusted with the way they presented all this cosmetic shit as a cool new add-on to the game, when in reality, the whole game is essentially...

    When are you going to make a thread on why you suck?

    Kombat Kast 10-2-19 Recap

    Wow I love the design. I just hope they give him good frame data on his normals and block strings because his moves are so stubby. Then he'll be a close-up rushdown monster, otherwise he's probably gonna suck lol

    What’s next after 3rd variations?

    Give all the base characters more strings and possibly special moves (like how Tekken does it) . A lot of fighters feel barebones and lacking in combo and special move variability. Like give Raiden his teleport on all variations. Seriously, what's Raiden without his iconic sparkport? A fucking...

    Hot Take: Third variations will have little to no effect on the meta

    I'm hoping they change the first 2 variations for all or most of the characters as well. Everyone could use more strings and possibly specials, a lot of the fighters just feel so barebones with few options

    Kombat Kast 9-25-19 Recap

    I'm aware of most of these, option selects are a fundamental part of high level play in most fighting games. I'm not a fan of the block/hit option select in this game as it makes fighters with good staggers even better and removes the need to react and hit confirm. But I digress, I was...

    Kombat Kast 9-25-19 Recap

    I like where this is headed but it's a shame they're not giving all the characters new base moves instead. All the variations seem very stripped down as it is, so now we get the option to choose another stripped down variation I guess... Here's hoping to NRS giving all the fighters more...

    NRS does not acknowledge this website as something they follow.

    There's still lots of tech and setups and matchups discussion going on for MK11. It's just migrated more to discord and Twitter. TYM used to be THE centralized place to go for all the high level of play discussion and reference, but this is no longer. Shout out to @Somberness the Greatest MK9...

    NRS does not acknowledge this website as something they follow.

    Too many scrubs and casuals are on here, the whole mood of the forums has changed. Threads these days seem to trend towards whining and bitching unlike the Mk9 days where they were geared towards discussing competitive strategy.

    Rate NRS's Balancing Job of Your Main Character(s)!

    Geras - 10/10 A+ Geras got nerfed slightly more than they buffed him. NERFS > I'm glad that they removed his true 50/50 (both options used to come out at 18 frames) completely and made it now just a fuzzyable mix. True 50/50s are cancer and I think NRS has done a very good job - Balance wise -...

    Jacqui's whiffed throw can only be punished with ranged normals...

    Well if you're not even going to bother trying to adapt then don't bother complaining about it either.

    Jacqui's whiffed throw can only be punished with ranged normals...

    If you watch the frame by frame (press . to move forward 1 key frame, press , to move back) you'll see that jacqui's throw animation creates space between you as she pushes you forward with her front leg and then resets her position on recovery. I'd argue it's an intentional design of the...

    Characters You Don't Mind Losing To?

    I only get mad when i get 50% 50/50'd in the corner by Sonya. I don't have a problem losing to any of the characters in particular. Either you get outplayed or you don't.

    Do you Regret Buying Premium Edition/Kombat Pack? Do You Think That People will Still Care by the Time Final 2 Characters are Released?

    I don't regret buying it. However, I'm concerned with NRS due to their lack of communication and because of how unfinished the game was at release. I will certainly be more wary of them in the future when I spend money on their products.

    Instant Air Gun Shots?

    I am referring to the air gun shots that will hit a standing opponent. What's the deal with them? The gun shot special doesn't come out if I input it soon after jumping. I've tried using a keyboard to execute this also as I wanted to be sure it wasn't my lack of execution. The only high...
