Can somebody please teach me how to use this guy in a fun way with extended juggles and fun kameos to use with !

I have seen so many comments and watched some gameplay footage on how complex this characters combos can be! I am pretty sure there are other ways to make it enjoyable as he is a pretty cool character! Never really had a chance to use him yet and would like to but just wanting to hear other opinions on his gameplay and how enjoyable it can be. Thank you!

Best Reptile NRS-Trailer Fatality

If you've been following my polls, you'd know that I'm planning on doing an NRS-Era Armageddon fanfic, that Scorpion got his Variations and Brutalities finalized and Sub-Zero got his design chosen, and Smoke, Tremor, Cyber Sub-Zero, and Sareena got their Fatalities decided on, the latter getting my MK11 fanfic's Go to Hell and MK1's Inner Demon as her two Fatalities. Now it's time for the secret fighter and the final original MK Kombatant to prove why Zaterra reigns supreme with his Fatalities, Reptile.

And since he showed up in my fanfics, I have something to add with the trailer Fatalities-

Mortal Kombat 11 (Fanmade):Clean-Up Service

Reptile spits acid into the opponent's eyes, blinding them as it eats away at their pupils, before grabbing them by the back of the head as they scream and smashing their dissolving face into the ground, bursting it open. Reptile notices the acid pool already formed and spits some more onto the ground, creating a sizable puddle that he shoves the rest of the opponent's corpse into, only their legs remaining outside to twitch on the slow-motion screen.

Will holiday fatalities make a comeback in MK1?

I expected them back in the store around Halloween and Thanksgiving, and it seems nothing around this Christmas either. Will we get them again? If not, is it possible to buy them online?

Honestly, just using these towers to level up the characters I have not really used yet! The costumes do not really phase me. What is next for MK1 in the new year??

Does MK1 feel like it grasps too much to the past?

I don’t know if anyone else feels it but to me I feel like MK1 should have just been a fresh start to the plot for the most part, I actually like (some) of the changes, such as Tarkat being a disease, and the swapping of Raiden and Liu Kang. But I feel like having the bad guy being just Shang Tsung but from Aftermath is really not great, and it pulls from characters who could have been interesting but aren’t due to lack of screen time, mostly Tanya, Li Mei, Sindel, and Reiko. Like the point of it being Mortal Kombat 1, was a fresh start but it might as well just be a big dlc to MK11 since it’s basically just that game but retreaded. I feel like a better twist villain would have been someone like Kitana or Kenshi. Someone typically or always associated as a good guy who as a villain could have still showed the Liu Kang’s timeline wasn’t perfect but was more interesting then the last bad guy again. Also I know mortal kombat has never been a “simple” or “realistic” series but hasn’t there been enough time line nonsense between MK9 and all of MK11 and Aftermath to have had a game without alternate dimensions or a multiverse concept. I don’t know I could be totally alone here but I feel like the set up of a political story involving outworld could have been far more interesting then the mortal kombat equivalent of avengers endgame that we got.

I was under the impression that Kasual was supposed to be fun

I beat the story and a few towers, but I cannot for the life of me even win a round. It's bullshit that I spend the entire match stuck in a combo with no room to breathe.

This is the first time I don’t feel excited about an upcoming DLC guest character..

I mean we're entering a new year and I'm seeing no one on X or anywhere talking about him...if it was Kano, Sonya or even another interesting guest people would've been more hyped

Character change in ranked

Characters change needs to be in ranked because I feel like the biggest problem is having to be forced to certain kameos for certain matchups, like I hate facing kitana with any character that has no projectile or slow projectiles especially kitana jax

Anyone know how to beat Hellfire Scorpion?

So I'm on invasions and I'm at the fight where if you beat Scorpion you get his Conflagration skin/palette. I get past the first 2 rounds but the explosive wire things are what's getting me. They're doing stupid amounts of damage and can't get past the first 3 without dying to the mass damage. If anyone could help me out with this, much appreciated.

Where are the seasonal towers

The seasonal towers aren’t showing up for me, I’ve tried in the towers of time but it’s just the 6 hourly towers at the back and the usual 3 in the front. How do I get the tower in the far background?

A prediction on Hanzo and Kuai Liang in MK13

This thought just came to recently but I think is a pretty good guess on what's gonna happen to those 2 in MK13

Kuai Liang is gonna bestow his pyromancy to Hanzo, thus making Hanzo the new Scorpion (like he was in the old timelines). Kuai Liang would basically be Hanzo's mentor on how to use his pyromancy, mentoring him to use it with wisdom, care, and proficiency. And it works since Kuai Liang is a previous pyromancy user so he works best as Hanzo's mentor. It also builds upon the relationship both Hanzo and Kuai Liang had as clan leaders now turned friends, almost brothers after Kuai Liang discovered Quan Chi's plot and revealed to Hanzo. It also fits as in Kuai Liang's words, his pyromancy is a "Closely Kept Family Secret"

https://reddit.com/link/1hloysf/video/pastwmzwpv8e1/player

What better way to make Hanzo, a hungry orphan left by his own parents, understand that he's now part of Kuai Liang's family, than letting him in on this closely kept family secret and bestowing the pyromancy as a mantle to him?

Kuai Liang would also lose his pyromancy as a result, so to continue defending Earthrealm, he'd need a power of his own, a power worthy of this wise warrior now leader of his own clan the Shirai Ryu. That power is cryomancy

It was Bi-Han's power, and Bi-Han was the more ruthless brother of the two, Kuai Liang knows how cold and cruel cryomancy can be, only he can wield it with wisdom and care as to not be more devastating than needed. So Kuai Liang gets cryomancy making him the new Sub-Zero (in the New Era atleast)

With this we basically go back to how things were, Kuai Liang as Sub-Zero, Hanzo Hasashi as Scorpion, and Bi-Han as Noob Saibot

Shang Tsung not working

So I recently bought the game on sale on my US account (it was cheaper on that) and because I wanted the full roster so I bought Shang Tsung on my UK region account because the game ate the dollars I had and I had spare pounds left. But when I try to play as him, he's just greyed out like I have to buy him but I already have.

I've deleted and reinstalled the game, I've restart my console and I've been checking the status of the game but nothing is working. Is there a way to get this to work or is it a case of "because it's not the same region dlc" for literally the same character?

Best Way To Play Old Original Series?

I'm heading back home for the holidays and hanging out with my old cousins I used to game with when we were kids, along with all of our own kids.

I have virtually every system back at my parent's place. Is there any type of anthology or special edition that has the say first three games in the series? Or suggest a best way to play them?

There are a few retro game shops in the area, too, so all suggestions work! Thanks!

Kreate Fighter

This might just be me, but I think too many games are missing out on the hype train of “creating your own character.” How many of us don’t spend almost an hour making our own character to send them into the world and be the hero or villain, interacting with other characters, and seeing them in cutscenes. Honestly, MK1 was a missed opportunity. They reset the timeline, and especially with that crazy ending they gave us there wasn’t a better opportunity. Hopefully the next game will do better.
