Post subject: Two MK2 related questions |
 |
| |
Ok, I'm starting to become a decent MK2-player.  I found some good ways to beat the CPU and I'm having no more trouble with Kintaro if I'm using Scorpion or Sub Zero.
Still, there are some things that piss me off and I haven't found ways to avoid them yet.
- After the CPU sweeps me, they walk up to me and throw me. Sometimes after the throw, they walk up to me again and throw me a second time (Happens when I'm at the edge of the screen). Is there ANY thing I can do against the throws? And don't say "Don't get sweeped".
- Why can some characters like Mileena, Kitana and Kung Lao uppercut jumping opponents, while others like the three Ninjas can not?
- What's the combination and dictance for Baraka's "Cut off head" fatality? None of the combinations I found works for me.

Maybe u can jump kick after that sweep thing...
the barakas fatality was written to be between close and sweep :S I havent succeeded in that too 
I dont kno about that uppercutting the jumping opponent... But maybe its just a special character feature... Like after split punching Kunglao with Cage u cannot uppercut him after that, he just bows so low after that... I can uppercut any character after that, but not Kung Lao

Well, you've found out the jump kick, jump back, jump kick... strategy with Sub and Scorpion. Thats how I do it. Anyways, for your questions...
FOr the sweeps... I find this a ridiculously cheap move that the computer is able to do, especially on very hard mode. THe fact is, DON'T ever sweep an opponent that is near you because the range of their throw is twice as long as yours and they'll just do it way more easier. Opponent usually don't sweep human players but I'd hate to say it but here's a little neat trick if they get next to you.
When close jump straight up and immediatly punch in the air. They'll try to jumpkick you but it won't work. If they don't jump, you'll hit them with the jump punch and then immediatly do a roundhouse kick. Only in MK2 that roundhouse kicks work wonders.
Now I haven't had any problem uppercuting jump kicking players at all. Maybe the timing may be off or something... I don't really know what to say about this.
The decapitation fatality for Baraka is close distance and hold block... Back, Back, Back, High Punch. This should work. Baraka's impaling fatality is close distance... Back, Forward, Down, Forward, Low Punch.
I got a feeling that the question was for me though.

well, you can either, try jump back and kick them as you go back, or try down and lp, a quick low blow, same for kick, a quick low kick will keep them at bay, If you jump back you run the risk of being hit with one of the CPU's projectiles.
Baraka's head slice is close range (hint an easy way to do it, jump right next to your opponant, keep pressing back it doesnt matter how many times as long as its more than 4...when you land next to them, hit hp...and that should execute the fatality)
Regards,

Oh yes they do...
Anyway...your "Jump up and punch" tactic is good. Although Cage uses his high Fireball on it and Scorpion spears you.

Yeah, some character it works on... not all. When I usaully jump back with Scorpion, he hasn't thrown anything at me. He just stands there and make a little growl... not his tuant. I just go back and kick him again and then do it over again but he does various things. Like the stomp or an uppercut. Don't ever kick him high becauase he'll grab you and slam you. Kicking him low works really well.
Total MK.. Well, my knowledge of Baraka's move is three backs and then HP. I've done it like this always. Same thing with Jax' arm rip. Which is 4 blocks and then LP.
As for the sweeping.. maybe it because I kick the computer ass so bad that they don't have to sweep me.

As for the sweeps...I think it's maybe the consoles we play MK2 on. Did you ever compare MK3 MAME to SNES?? There's such a big difference in the AI (and cheapness of the CPU), maybe it's the same with MK2.
