    Coming Back After a Layoff- STRESS

    I'm not sure if any of you feel the same way, but after taking a layoff from playing Mortal Kombat or any fighting game for that matter, but mainly Mortal Kombat because that's the only fighting game I really play, I get stressed out about coming back and playing it. I know it sounds weird...

    Kharacters with Easy Execution?

    Hi! I've pretty much asked this for every NRS game, so I'll keep asking. In fighting games, the weakest part of my game is execution. I'll read on here and hear from other people that there are "relatively easy" combos they will get in 10 minutes or so, I'll try that same combo and can maybe...

    CALLING ALL LURKERS- Are You a Lurker? (Poll)

    I was always curious about this. I've been on TYM going on 4 years, and up until very recently I would have considered myself a lurker. Many of you probably don't recognize my name too well (bonus points to those who remember what my name was before I changed it); but regardless I've been...

    Does scorpions spear not capture?

    I'm not sure of the technical fighting game term, but from what it looked like, his spear didn't see rest and the opponent. Maybe I was seeing the second spear in the combo but I can't remember exactly

    Do you think MK11 seems too similar to injustice?

    From watching the gameplay reveal and now watching the exhibition matches, it seems like many people are saying that mk11 is more like injustice and less like mortal kombat. From my point of view, mk11 does look, and in some aspects plays, more like injustice 2 and less like mkx. I'm not sure...

    When/how to use pokes and small combos.

    Okay, I need help with when and how to use pokes and small combos. For example, when I'm playing people who are better than me, they always use pokes to open me up, and I end up stuck in a combo.
