Hello everyone. I'm doing this series I call "All Variations Liu Kang - Ranked Matches" with Liu Kang on PS4. Due to the fact that PS4 streaming eats your interent, I have to stream with 480p quality in order for online matches not lag. I'm don't stream for too long, 1-2 hours and then upload the entire thing to YouTube. The rules are simple: every new match I take new costume and new variation starting with Default Liu Kang with Dualist variation and ending with Capoeira costume in Dragon's Fire variation. After a few circles like that I'm ending the stream.

Here is the most recent one, I really hope you will enjoy it:


I'm from Russia and can play only with PAL region, unfortunately.

I also upload some funny montages, like this one - kombos into quitalities:


DJ Liu Kang:


This is one of my very first big creations, an entire combo video with all 3 variations, but it was before all the biggest patches as of recent, this video is from May:


Unexpected accidential Brutality:


And my most favorite ne that even Ed Boon himself tweeted on his twitter:

@AssassiN why are you using f44~flying kick mb over fbrc when you have stamina? You missed combo opportunities because you did that.

Always do f44 fbrc f44fbrc f213 fbdc b12 flying kick on block, making reads after f213 (if they're one of the characters that can armour/backdash a follow up) and b12 flying kick.

I know, I realized it every time after I did F44~Flying Kick MB. Yet I barely used the FBRC.
Any tips for the Shinnok MU?

Eh it's a pretty hard one, might be Liu Kang's hardest MU. Best advice I can really say is to play as cheap as possible.

-Use low fireballs to duck Shinnok's gun
-Only do F44 FBRCs to completely lock him down
-Do b12 FBRC always on his wakeup so you'll always be putting pressure on him.
-And I know it sounds weird but don't try to play footsies with Shinnok, he'll wreck you. MB Bicycle kick to directly get and do a b12 FBRC to start pressure.

Most of the times I could low fireball under his projectile, but it's not something I could do on reaction.
It feels weird trying to play footsies with Shinnok. Constant fear of his low scoop or jump-attack with so much range.

I decided not to abuse F213~FBDC in this tournament, perhaps I should have against Shinnok...

Well it's gonna be gone in the patch so just have fun with it now lol.

Pretty much the reason I'm not using it, it's going to be removed anyways. So why bother getting used to it?
I see your point. but since boneshaper will also be nerfed then why not fight broke with broke? It was in tourney as well so I would've done it, even though I never use it when I play normal sets.

Where is this information coming from?

Today me and my friend were playing at my apartement some MKX matches. As a result we did FT5 with each variation of Liu Kang and Sub-Zero, me being Liu Kang of course. You can check out my friend's YouTube channel (http://www.youtube.com/user/Kopiro4ka/featured). He is making some really nice combo videos.



Results:
Dragon's Fire vs Grandmaster (4-5)

Flame Fist vs Unbreakable (5-3)

Dualist vs Cryomancer (3-5)

I should probably post in this forum a little, I'll start with my FF from last month, this is somewhat close to where I am now somewhat.
I see very little FF being repped though.
EDIT: I thin since this video my IAFB game is better and helps me control the air space alot more, let me know what you think of the footage though.
EDIT EDIT: Okay re watching this I played super RISKY man, I feel way safer and my footsie I would think is better now, I'll have to find out soon and post newer footage and compare I think, this just looks like stuff I wouldn't do now.
