    MK11 Reversal Throw defensive options.

    Good evening folks of TYM, I have been involved in numerous discussions in the Throw discussion thread created by @karaokelove and during these discussions have taken to the lab to really test out throw properties in MK11 and let me tell you...this is knowledge everyone need to know from the...

    I need advice.

    I really like this character (Mean Streak specifically) I'm struggling tho I use him too honest. AFter F223 I'm reacting like it's -10 when it's -2. But all of his strings leave him negative. He has the F4 and the d1 to check. How are you all maintaining pressure with him? What are your...

    Using Jade's Parry to stop Online mashers/beating D1~throw AND D1 D1 D1

    Good Morning everyone, I am going to post this very disorganized tech video (forgive me, I was in a really big rush) about how Jade can use her reversal parry to beat out D1 D1 D1 and D1 throw. So, to explain what's going on here a little clearer....Throws in MK11 are insanely strong...

    Jade - Overrated, Underrated, or Just Meh.

    I've been scouring threads over the last couple of weeks and have been interested in seeing the response to Jade. Some people seem to think she is great and slept on, other people think she is trash, and finally some people think she is just meh. I am curious to see where most of TYM thinks of...

    What were the best and worst buffs/nerfs in MK History?

    With KP2 launching and a completely revamped MK experience, there has been both praise and unrest among some players. People complaining about Tremor, people loving Ferra/Tor etc. I would like to discuss what you personally think were the best/worst nerfs in MK history? I want to keep these...

    Guide - Ethereal TakeAChance's All In One Ethereal Guide - Updated with Yomi Saltface's Summer Jam Matches! 9/2/2015

    A Guide To Ethereal Mileena By TakeAChance Instead of creating a thread everytime I find some new information with Ethereal Mileena in the lab, I thought I would just create this very easy to navigate comprehensive guide. As some of you are aware, I am now a 100% Ethereal Mileena main. I have...

    Video/Tutorial - Ethereal Pushing Ethereal Further - Optimal Combos and Meter Build by TakeAChance

    Hey fellow Mileena mains, and those who are interested in playing her. Been a while since I have done a video update, but you may want to check out the latest offering. I have picked up Ethereal Mileena as my main variation and until a few days ago, did not spend in depth time in the lab with...

    Tech - Ethereal F14~EX Fade Is Insanely Plus (video) (~+10)

    Check out this video It pretty much guarantees a throw. You have to neutral crouch or jump to get out of it, which is suicide considering all of her guaranteed strings. Anyone who is not Kung Lao or Cassie has to respect a F4 or basically anything you want after it, and if you start mashing...

    Question - Ravenous A plea to fix Ravenous Mileena. *Detailed Breakdown*

    I am creating this thread to bring to light the problems associated with this variation. It is to bring to light some very real issues this variation has and why it cannot be used competively in the current meta of MKX. It is not to bitch, it is not to moan, it is to educate and hopefully bring...

    Question - Mileena The One Major Buff Mileena Needs. Do you agree?

    Before I get 100 people in here telling me Mileena doesn't need buffs, please read this first. I am not asking for a safe 50/50 launcher! I am asking for a tool that is 100% punishable on block and fits her high risk high reward arch type. Here is my proposed buff along with my reasons as to...

    Breakthrough - Mileena Toss out your old BNB's. More Damage, Options, and Mixups.

    Good Morning/Afternoon/Evening Mileena players. After only having a half day of work today I spent some more quality time in the lab with everyone's favourite vixen Mileena. What I have uncovered should change the way you play Mileena. Our current BNB's usually look like this: Opener~roll...

    VIdeo/Tutorial - Piercing Corner Combos With Video and Notation (Piercing)

    Been hitting the lab really hard with Mileena. One of the holes I had in my gameplay with her was I really had no idea what to do with her in the corner since her ball roll made her switch sides. Welp, I spent some time in the lab practicing this evening and thought I would share some of the...

    Post Your FGC Theme Song.

    With a new tournament season upon us (MKX) I thought it would be fun to revisit an old topic found here on TYM. At one point in MK9 history, wrestling and Mk9 produced a hybrid of hype that culminated in a GGA NWO showdown vs VSM. Remembering that was a real fun trip, but it left me thinking...

    Initial MkX Tournaments and seeding.

    Will the first few MKX tournaments have random seeding? I think we should start the game off with a clean slate. MKX is not MK9, or Injustice. Personally, I feel that we truly shouldn't have any seeds until after EVO. Have Chicagos tournament, Toryuken, CEO, etc...all count for consideration...
