    Dealing with how demotivating losing is

    Losing is supposed to help you learn, improve and in general make you better at the game. However it feels like I'm the exception to this rule as I feel like losing rarely helps me improve. A couple reasons I feel this way: - I lose against every type of player. It doesn't matter if they are...

    (Salty) I'm trash and I need help

    Hey guys I'm very bad at Injustice 2 and I'd like to not be garbage anymore. The video below shows 3 ranked matches I played as Red Hood. I felt like I played very poorly, which probably means they're good for finding out what my issues are. Sometimes it feels like my issue is matchup...

    List of gaps punishable by normals or parries

    Discussion MKXL Non-gameplay related feedback

    As a competitive community it makes sense that we talk about balancing 24/7, but I figured it would be good to change things up once in a while. This thread is for discussing all things MKXL that do not directly relate to gameplay and/or balancing. Some examples: - Graphics - Music - Story -...

    Question Balancing thinking and doing?

    Most of us have heard the phrase "Think before you act" and it goes without saying that this applies to fighting games as well. But to what degree? Far too often I catch myself thinking too much about what I should be doing or what my opponent is going to do. This means that I focus too much on...

    Who has/has had the best avatar?

    I'm sure we all have our favorites and I think it's time we commended those who have S+ tier avatars. I have several I quite like: - Yoda pepe, @Dankster Morgan: http://imgur.com/GbtkHm0 A terrific avatar for a man with arguably the best name on TYM. Every time I saw this avatar, I knew I...

    Finding tech and finding new uses for your tools?

    Discussion X-ray combos for your character

    So I've been poking around several combo threads in my quest for the swaggiest combos in this game and X-ray combos more than fit the bill in that department. In most combo threads however, X-ray combos aren't mentioned. The purpose of this thread is for you to list the highest damaging or most...

    What is the swaggiest combo you have?

    For the few uninitiated, 'swaggy combos' refers to combos that are insanely cool to look at. In this case I'd like to know what swag TYM has up their sleeve. I'd prefer the combos to be doable in an actual match so I can potentially use these combos and kreygasm afterwards.

    Question - Thunder God Maintaining pressure with Raiden

    Something I very often run into while playing Raiden, Thunder God specifically, is that it never feels like it's my turn. Raiden has too much recovery on his normals and strings to stagger strings for pressure and his cancel seems too slow and - to be good for pressure. As such, I'm having real...
