BIG PUSHER
Um, hi. So these are some characters I would really like to learn but I feel that it's more difficult due to other people not playing them or online people just being... online people. So, here is my list of the people I would appreciate some help learning or learning match-ups as with Noob Saibot(I post this because I like to learn through actual fights: I am going to read everything in the forums like I've done to the Noob forums(EVERYTHING) but it's easier to observe and learn this way):
1. Shang Tsung. I cannot for the life of me learn this character. I can play him in a limited fashion offline in practice mode and I think "This guy is easy." Go online in "real" fights, everything I've taught myself gets thrown out the window and I end up mashing F4 trying to ground skull like everybody does to me, or I'm just sitting on the other end of the screen like an asshole. It doesn't help that a year of MK almost non-stop has done a huge number to my controller but I think I can manage until I'm able to purchase a new one.
2. Skarlet. I used to be sort of decent with her when nobody knew a thing about her, but after dropping her and picking her back up, the entire game plan with her has changed. Some help learning to do fast dagger cancels and such would be lovely.
3. Kabal. I hate this guy so much. Even if he's always a good challenge, I HATE him. But, I can't hate him for execution, I main Noob. When I play as Kabal, I'm not very execution-heavy and you'll rarely see me NDC 80 times in three seconds or even do more than one iAGB(because I can't). I'm sort of stuck playing the easier execution style of Noob and I think this hurts my game pretty badly. Would rather not end up with carpal tunnel though.
4. Sektor. I know this character and I'd consider myself actually decent with him. But, I am NOWHERE near as good as I can be. The best Sektor I know would probably be BildSlash or Zombie, and Bild has been a lot of help but I don't get the opportunity to fight him often. Despite my 3 mains being classified as zoners(Maybe Reptile isn't but I play him like one lol), I want Sektor to be my rush-down character, or at least my hybrid. Help with learning how to fully use what mix-ups and pressure he has would be fantastic.
5. Ermac. Another character I'm very familiar with but I don't know anybody to compare myself to. I play very defensively with him, but I end up going full-screen when I doubt this is a good idea. This is also an odd match-up for me as Noob, so if anybody would teach me him and the Ermac/Noob match-up, it'd be great.
Well, those are currently my top 5, I have a few others(Kratos, Sindel, CSZ...) but right now they take priority. Like I said, all help is appreciated. My PSN is Evil_PandasXD; Clan ID KILLA_Frosting. I probably won't be able to play any time soon due to school and a ruined controller, so just advice is appreciated. Please send me a message over PSN if you're willing or able to help and I'll notify you when I am able to play. Thank you!
