DownFourCast Episode 8: We Want Your Questions! LIVE NOW

Blue Blurs for Life!
We are currently looking to have some guests join us for discussions about the history of their icon characters. For this episode, Smoke and Sindel will be taking the spotlight. Fellow co-host Mr. Mileena is a seasoned Sindel player with solid knowledge on her, but we are also looking into bringing other Sindel players to the mix if possible. As for Smoke, we are hoping to have xSMoKEx join us for that. We will keep you updated as we work out our plans for the next broadcast.

In light of recent events, there has been a change in plan regarding the lead team of the DownFourCast show. Wonder_Chef has decided to bow out gracefully as the host, and in turn, the role has been passed to me. We will be on stream next week via a Skype chat to discuss topics related to Mortal Kombat 9 and anything regarding the state of our community.

For the time being, we turn to you, the community, to ask you for any questions you feel we should ask the players who specialize in knowledge about Smoke and Sindel, as well as anything MK-related if you wish. Bear in mind that any questions aimed at insulting them, humiliating them, or otherwise implying anything negative towards the guests will be ignored. This is not a show to entertain the trolls. I'd like everyone to conduct themselves as professionally as possible.

We look forward to hearing your questions! :)

Expected schedule is 7:00 P.M. CST on Wednesday evening.

Blake, Id like to hear joes take on Sub v sindel. Where he feels sub players are missing opportunities, and where sub gives sindel trouble. I think the community could benefit from a sindel players POV on this.

For the regulars, what was your first experience in an arcade?

Question for everyone: Do you actually think Kabal will become the most used character in the tournament scene, and possibly see several Kabals in top 8?

Good questions to ask for Mr. Mileena and xSMoKEx + potential Guests:
1.) Discuss their take on the controversial Smoke vs Sindel MU, 5-5 and 6-4 figures, their take, their experience, their point of view and through facts, strategies etc.
2.) Possibly have Sindel main Delriach join too for insights.
3.) Possibly have Smoke main KT Smith join the roundtable discussion.
4.) Discuss Smoke vs Cage, Jax, Sonya, Kung Lao and Kabal MUs.
5.) Point of what IF Sindel received the armored Ex Cartwheel, would that failed buff made a difference in the character aside only receiving faster Scream buff instead.
6.) Mr. Mileena - Why did he pick up Sindel, history, used her in MK3 or MKD?
7.) xSMoKEx - Why do does he play Smoke, favorite character etc?
8.) Next upcoming tournament appearances..

Hopefully they will have enough time to get Q&A responses. <3 Sindel <3

I'd like a more elaborate discussion on the "all Kabal" Mortal Kombat 9. Is "all Kabal" the future of MK9 and if it is how is it going to affect the community, tournament scene and the game in general. Why is Kabal S+ tier, what are his strengths, why does Jax give him trouble, what characters can potentially give him trouble. Is he ban worthy? And is it necessary in general to ban Kabal? Knowing that CDJr is preparing Kabal for tournament play, how many Kabals and Jaxes are we going to see?
Questions for guests: did xSmoke play REO after Toryuken in casuals, if yes, what was his impressions of the match-up against Kabal, and REO's Kabal especially. Is he considering to prepare against Kabal more seriously? What are his views on Jax vs Smoke, because we are going to see more Jaxes. Same questions for Mr. Mileena regarding Kabal. And are you guys going to switch to Kabal or Jax if they turn out to be dominant?

Sindel Needs armor only on her ex scream, it would make people respect her wakeup options more, since it already can be cancle it would be like rain's ex roundhouse

It really sux that sindel has no armor besides xray, but in actuality the move she truely needs armor on is ex scream. that would give her something that rain and kabal have which is an armored parry or full combo from scream.;)

Any opinion on Noob or Scorpion would be interesting.

Q: Does KL stand a chance at EVO (or in the current state of the community)?

My question to Mr. Mileena and the other Sindel players is "Do you think she needs armor like a lot of other players are saying?"

After heavy grinding since Texas Showdown, I have updated her Matchup List, and boy, is the Queen Severely underrated.
We will be discussing her on the D4cast this week, so tune in. I will be going by this matchup list.
@DanCock agree, disagree?


Baraka- 6/4
Cyber Sub-Zero- ?/? (refer to the bottom of list)
Cyrax- 5/5
Ermac- 5/5
Freddy- 5/5
Jade- 5/5
Jax- ?/?
Johnny Cage- 5/5
Kabal- 4/6
Kano- 6/4
Kenshi- 4/6
Kitana 4/6
Kung Lao- 4/6
Liu Kang- 5/5
Mileena- ?/?
Nightwolf- 5/5
Noob- 5/5
Quan- 6/4
Raiden- 5/5
Rain- 6/4
Reptile- 4/6
Scorpion- 5/5
Sektor- 5/5
Shang- 5/5
Sheeva- 6/4
Skarlet-5/5
Smoke- 5/5
Sonya- 5/5
Stryker- 5/5
Sub-Zero- 5/5

Bad Matchups: Kabal, Kenshi, Kitana, Kung Lao, and Reptile
Possible 5/5's or 4/6's: Mileena, Jax, Cyber Sub-zero

Reptile could also be a possible 5/5

Overall, Sindel has a few Mu's in her favor, but she goes even with majority of the cast, mainly because she forces you to come in, whether you have the life lead or not, and her rushdown is HEAVILY HEAVILY underrated, which I will go over with VIDEO, on the d4 cast <3

Tune in xoxo​

Mr. Mileena-your view on levicancel pressure compared to NDC pressure and roundhouse cancel pressure. and how viable it actually is? how much you should do it before going into a throw or mix up? Mixing up levicancel with levifireball to keep opponent from poking cancels?
Mr Mileena-your opinion on 44(blocked) into d1 cartwheel mixed up with 44 closefb?
and why 44 isn't neutral(it should be)? f12 being neutral but being easily ducked?
using b3 levicancel to get in and start pressure mixed up with b3 lowfb and b3f2 combo starter?
also talk about how BAD Sindels wakeups are pfft? getting d4 msf1 cartwheeled by sonya on wakeup is really obnoxious, and why noone wakeups with levitate dashback closefb?

I want to know y sindel players dont use u4 as a anti cross over punisher :confused: its so good, but the best cross over stopper she has is her U3, just wish u could fireball link it. U4 can be linked into 44 fire ball when timed perfectly, also the use of her 11b2 string is rarely used and its a good pressure string when linked with a d3 into 11b24 fireball into hairwhip ;)
