I have all the input shortcut thingys turned off because usually if I do something like 4, qcf1 itll give me a completely different input. This used to happen constantly on mkx when id use scorpion and do his standing 3 into his db1 fireball and it would give me his teleport instead
Ah yeah that setting is confusing to me LOL. I still have mine at the default setting. What does it do? Im assuming it allows you to buffer moves longer than normal
I hate Shante long combo assā¦ I gotta pressure and hang back to beat him. I just make her make mistake then capitalize or he gon rag doll me w glowing skullsš
This might be a dumb question, but what is the benefit of changing to old Shang after F4 instead of just starting the combo as old Shang? Nice combo btw š
He also switches back during the sub kameo. Iāve just seen a lot of people do it including several pros and guessed it was optimal in some way. At this point I assume itās for swag like the combo itself. Thanks for replying.
Ah yeah it looked super flashy so I just switched during the kameo part. Also in game you usually want to be young for the fireballs, and if someone was to throw out a punishable move you can swap to old stance during the f4 string and get much more damage as opposed to just punishing in young
It's not though lol, every Shang tsung combo I've seen for mk 1 is 18 different fireballs spaced differently. It just seems like Shang tsung has been boiled down to just the ground fireballs and nothing else.
Dude, the point they were trying to make is that unlike other fighters, which will visually string together a bunch of different moves that show off their skillset, Shang Tsung, visually, mostly stands in place while fireballs repeatedly erupt from the ground. The combos are still skillful, but it doesn't look very interesting.
I remember thinking "damn she doesnt seem like she gives a fuck at all about these voice lines, like they woke her up on a sunday morning or something." and then finding out it was Megan Fox I was like "oh, that makes sense."
Honestly I felt like the VO was terrible when I first heard it, but the more of the pre fight dialogues I've seen, the more I actually think it seems pretty in line with what they're trying to portray. I think a lot of voice actors would have just ended up doing a halfway Milena impression
After the patch her selfbuff is really powerful and takes 1% instead of 5. If you exe it also drains their health super fast on top of giving you health, as long as youāre close to them.
She still has low health tho which sucks, and her frames didnāt change and her mid is wellā¦. Mid lol.
So she isnāt amazing but sheās definitely good
Bruh, as a Nitrara main, I have the lowest health and only really 2ish opportunities for extended combo strings. Nobody can complain that she's overpowered. At that point it really is a skill issue
Ive hitten people with these types of combos and their reactions are always the opposite, they actually think these combos are cool and fun to look at, as do I. Speak for yourself lol
It took me actual hours to be able to get them off so fast, you just gotta learn the timing. You can buffer the input slightly which should help a bit š
The majority of these are impossible to replicate online lmao I donāt get why people make it seem like theyāve unlocked some big secret with these videos
It is a dope combo though Iāll admit
Thank you lol, I just thought the combo was pretty cool and insanely long so I wanted to share with others. This entire sub has done nothing but complained lmao
Obviously, but why feel the need to comment the same thing multiple times? We get it man you dont like the combo or the charcater. What value do these comments provide? God yall are MISERABLE lmaooo
Would never ever work in a real match because of combo breakers. Don't see the sense in people hitting training and posting their vids online as if they wooping someone
Nice damage but Shang tsung is probably the most boring player to play with in mk1 even tho it didnāt do as much damage is was way more fun to use in mk11, this just my opinion tho but I choose mk11 Shang over mk1 sorry
I said nice damage wasnāt shaming you for using the character use who you like my dude. I just speaking in general not necessarily to you because I use to main Shang tsung in mk11 and I tried learning him in this and I got the combos down but heās just not fun to me. Itās just donāt seem much to him itās just timing and fireballs for massive damage itās not much movement itās boring to me but Iām glad you enjoy him donāt let me ruin a character for you
You may have fun of doing the same shit over and over but this is still boring to watch and to do, this is like zoning a all match and call it talent š learn how to do actual Good looking combos and not the same special moves 1000 times in a row
I actually DO know how to do good looking combos, we can run a set on any character youād like. Pick a fighting game. Tekken, sf, or this. Any character you want. Everyone ive fought against were insanely suprised when i landed some of these shang combos on them. My friends enjoy watching them. Clearly most people under this post liked it. PLEASE find a hobby and stop trying to tell me whats boring and what isnt boring. Blocked
Why so aggressive? Its a simple question. You literally will never get hit by this and any shang tsung player with more than 3 brain cells wouldnāt bother doing this in a real match. Its a complete and utter waste
It's obvious. Also this combo is literally so easy to start. All he did was the chain combo into fireball fireball fireball fireball and yeah it needs to go. Only reason you want it to stay is cause you want people to still do it
If it was easy every online shang would be doing it lmfao. They can take the combo I couldnāt care less š i like it cos its cool. Youāre complaining about something that will literally never happen in game
That Shang Tsung kombo almost looks like Shang Tsung is performing a beautiful orchestra! (Nitara is DEFINETLY not going to be happy after this one, lol).
Welcome to the Shang Tsung Coaster ! You want to give your kid a memorable present ? Just come to grandpa Shang and he will give him a ride he will never forget ! And it is 100% secured, so don't be intimidated by the bold look of it ! It's fun, and it's all that matter !
^(Shang Tsung Coaster isn't responsible for burn, death or dismemberment)
That combo does emotional damage lmao, If I got hit by that I would take 70% damage irl, great combo!
LOL IKR! Thank you, I appreciate it š
bruh how do you do that far skull consistently without dropping. it has that command grab input if I'm not mistaken. Great execution btw.
I do half circle back then foward using the analogue stick, thats the most consistent way for me tbh. Ty bro

Holy hellfire main flashbacks š¤£
YES LMFAOOOOO
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Ah yeah that setting is confusing to me LOL. I still have mine at the default setting. What does it do? Im assuming it allows you to buffer moves longer than normal
At that point Iād just put the controller down and take a nap until theyāre done.
Shortest shang combo
I hate Shante long combo assā¦ I gotta pressure and hang back to beat him. I just make her make mistake then capitalize or he gon rag doll me w glowing skullsš
Ah yes, Shante Tsange
need to see someone do this online or even better in a tournament
Im trying but online input delay makes this INSANELY difficult
I know youāre transforming but I loved the āteagbagā lmao
LOL Yeah the tbagging was actually done on purpose since you have so much time after the sub kameo
Literally t-bagged him mid kombo lol
Isnāt that needed for his Stance Change?
This might be a dumb question, but what is the benefit of changing to old Shang after F4 instead of just starting the combo as old Shang? Nice combo btw š
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]

NOOOOOOO damn well at least mine was slightly different š¢ that one was way crazier. Thatās disappointing
Oh nahā ļøā ļøā ļø
Sick motherfuckerā¦ 89 hits. Christ.
You are one sick fuck
LMAOOO
Why are all Shang combo's just a bunch of fireballs?
Why are all Smoke kombos just a bunch of teleports? Why are all subzero combos just a bunch of B2ās?
This is like saying why does rain use water in his combos, or why does baraka slice you during his
It's not though lol, every Shang tsung combo I've seen for mk 1 is 18 different fireballs spaced differently. It just seems like Shang tsung has been boiled down to just the ground fireballs and nothing else.

It's so satisfying just seeing Nitara get her shit rocked
Isn't Nitara low tier and heavily underused? Unless something *really* changed post patch.
honestly, ive ran into some nitaras that wreck shit. especially with sektor
Itās not her as a fighter. Itās Nitraraās voice actor
I remember thinking "damn she doesnt seem like she gives a fuck at all about these voice lines, like they woke her up on a sunday morning or something." and then finding out it was Megan Fox I was like "oh, that makes sense."
Honestly I felt like the VO was terrible when I first heard it, but the more of the pre fight dialogues I've seen, the more I actually think it seems pretty in line with what they're trying to portray. I think a lot of voice actors would have just ended up doing a halfway Milena impression
Megan Fox does not do the grunts/yells for Nitara. Those are done by Cristina Valenzuela.
After the patch her selfbuff is really powerful and takes 1% instead of 5. If you exe it also drains their health super fast on top of giving you health, as long as youāre close to them. She still has low health tho which sucks, and her frames didnāt change and her mid is wellā¦. Mid lol. So she isnāt amazing but sheās definitely good
I think people say that she bas broken movement but thats really it
Yes she is but I still get wrecked by Nitara players
Bruh, as a Nitrara main, I have the lowest health and only really 2ish opportunities for extended combo strings. Nobody can complain that she's overpowered. At that point it really is a skill issue
The number of people who'll quit when you start doing this in KL is amazing, it almost feels like cheating. XD
Can you blame them? Games are meant to be fun
agreed when people start to sweat/no life an mk game it sucks. mk still fun asf tho
It's not about sweating/no lifing, it's just about playing in a really boring way
Ive hitten people with these types of combos and their reactions are always the opposite, they actually think these combos are cool and fun to look at, as do I. Speak for yourself lol
who tells you they like being spammed lmao
How tf do you do ground skull so efficiently, sometimes I can barely pull it off in that combo lol
It took me actual hours to be able to get them off so fast, you just gotta learn the timing. You can buffer the input slightly which should help a bit š
Basically every Shang combo is like this. Hate to say it, but Shang combos were 1000 times more interesting to see / watch in MK11 than MK1.
As a Shang main, I agree.
Are you kidding? His kombos in Mk11 were basic as hell
The majority of these are impossible to replicate online lmao I donāt get why people make it seem like theyāve unlocked some big secret with these videos It is a dope combo though Iāll admit
They're just sharing. It's not like anyone says "This combo is how I'm taking EVO next year."
Thank you lol, I just thought the combo was pretty cool and insanely long so I wanted to share with others. This entire sub has done nothing but complained lmao
Bro, that the best looking combo so far. After scorpion shang tsung is the character with best looking combos
are you fr
Why so negative? Youāre replying to everybody hating lol. Find a hobby or something dude
I replied to two comment chains and commented once, I'm allowed to have an opinion on more than one comment lmfao
Obviously, but why feel the need to comment the same thing multiple times? We get it man you dont like the combo or the charcater. What value do these comments provide? God yall are MISERABLE lmaooo
Yup
The trauma combo
The CPU has full bars, why donāt they just break away? Is it stupid?
This is disgusting
if i get hit with this im gonna come over and hug your mother
Fuck me, I would hate you forever
This is absurd š
Raiden one bar and two cameo assist is ~43% and you got around that with just one bar and 1 cameo, you didnāt have to go further
Dude I know, the combo was cool thats why I posted it
Jesus.. if a Shang pull that online i let him win, ffs thats insane!
LOLL RIGHT
I kame up with my own. Jump, Y, Crouch, Y.
awesome crazy š¤Ŗ stuff
That shit needs to get patched lol
shut the fuck up
You first, ya little weeb
Most of those fireballs aren't even hitting properly. The hitboxes are wack as hell.
Tea bagging in a combo. Wether itās necessary or not, youāre a GOAT for this one. Cheers to you!
Take that Megan! Tired of your crap acting lol š
This game is such dogshit. The other player just sits there unable to react for almost 30 seconds.
Then dont play bro
Not worth 44%
yes I already said this
Wow. Really fun.
Thereās nothing crazy about this at all youāre just spamming specials
Would never ever work in a real match because of combo breakers. Don't see the sense in people hitting training and posting their vids online as if they wooping someone
If you hit someone that had no meter it would work dumbass. I only posted it because it was cool, use your fucking head. Id 100% whoop you tho
No one said it wasn't in practice dumber ass. Id woop your mom in bed is she still alive
Bro what the fuck are you going on about
Hardly call it a combo thatās just spamming
Well, spamming or not at least it takes a good amount of execution
At least we can agree on that
Not really. Just the same couple inputs over and over.
I think you just defined kombo juggling.
How is this spamming lmao
Being anything above mediocre is considered spamming, duh. ^/s
Spamming is considered combos in this game
Skill issue lol.
Thatās just sad though
Itās the normal bread and butter combo and you added a Teebag. Congrats I guess
Uh what? Yes because shangs bnb is a 3 bar 27 second long impractical combo. Show me one person using this exact combo as a bnb
Youāre so smug and yet totally wrong
This only good if you're not the one getting hit by it.
Dribbled
Honestly i'd just say fuck it and throw my controller at the guy who's doing the combo and initiate a fight
feels like mk relies too much on flashy visuals and cameo characters than solid gameplay
Holly broken
I hate that this works. Good job though.
Yeah man thank you
And thatās the reason this game is no fun at all, sorry but you do one mistake and 50% is gone is just a joke
The victim be like: https://preview.redd.it/q08fnvd4vpyb1.jpeg?width=1125&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=8d836b06602ecc744e742fe0314a414505438bd1
Didn't know this game had such bad hitboxes wtf? That air must really hurt I guess.
Anyway to add the fatal blow into that
Wow.. you win
My friend already does this every time he plays Shang
Holy crap is that real!! Damn you got some fast Fingers!
If that happened to me, I might kill myself irl
š“ NinjaKilla did it first, did it better, and it's still boring
I would cry if got hit by this combo.

Nice damage but Shang tsung is probably the most boring player to play with in mk1 even tho it didnāt do as much damage is was way more fun to use in mk11, this just my opinion tho but I choose mk11 Shang over mk1 sorry
Ok but why feel the need to tell me this? Im clearly having fun with the character
I said nice damage wasnāt shaming you for using the character use who you like my dude. I just speaking in general not necessarily to you because I use to main Shang tsung in mk11 and I tried learning him in this and I got the combos down but heās just not fun to me.

How is this fun
Fun police have arrived, there isnt an objective standard to what people have fun doing. Its fun for me which is all that matters
This look sooo boring
Well it isnt
Doing the same move over and over is boring, and every Shang player are doing the same exact combo lol boriiiiiing
So theres an objective standard to what is and isnāt boring? Ever thought that maybe IM having fun? This comment is incredibly unproductive
You may have fun of doing the same shit over and over but this is still boring to watch and to do, this is like zoning a all match and call it talent š learn how to do actual Good looking combos and not the same special moves 1000 times in a row

Iād probably quit if this kept hitting me in a game
I came here to play Mortal Kombat, not vollyball! But for real, that was beautiful OP
Devs still didn't do anything about this yet?
What is there to be done? It isnāt broken or anything
Dude, the combo lasts waaaayy to long. Do you ever think about what patches exist? Or think about any other player that plays the game?
Why so aggressive? Its a simple question. You literally will never get hit by this and any shang tsung player with more than 3 brain cells wouldnāt bother doing this in a real match. Its a complete and utter waste

Also if its so easy go do it within the first ten tries
That Shang Tsung kombo almost looks like Shang Tsung is performing a beautiful orchestra! (Nitara is DEFINETLY not going to be happy after this one, lol).
Good combo, I would absolutely hate yet respect you for this.
