A Deep Dive From the Recent CYRAX Trailer In MK1

[@AgilazLP]

Fun fact about MK9 Cyrax's command grab shennanigans (for those who never played it): yes, it was a busted as the guys describe it, yes, it got nerfed - but if you picked Cyrax's MK3 costume, you could still just do it like the nerf never happened lol

[@torchit2302]

Fun fact: Cyrax and Sektor are the only playable ladies in this game without high heels... Edit: also the wasp is the asian giant hornet (Vespa mandarinia), it can grow up to 45mm long with a stinger about 6mm long, the injected venom is not lethal (unless the victim is allergic OR gets stung multiple times) and it is highly painfull due to the large amount of injected venom.

[@PNDKM]

My life was better 5 seconds ago before i learned of this

[@HeisenbonesKR]

Such a weird piece of information to know (the high heels)

[@CGB_Crash]

High heels are very effective weapons, I learned that from Samurai Jack.

Jake's reply to not caring if she's low tier or not sums up how I thought when Ermac and Takeda coming out. It's my favorite character and I'm gonna play them no matter where they sit on the tier list.

Mustard: freaking out about his character being shown off. Ketchup: “sub zero parry! Sub zero parry!” 😂😂😂

[@Sixstonesage]

[@kylereno5383]

I absolutely love how much MK9 Cyrax is a part of her gameplay, with a few nods to MKDA Cyrax. Her design has grown on me big time and its so friggin great to see my favorite robot come back. Shes going to be a blast to play.

[@nadaproblem3023]

I think the genderswaps are egregious. Screw them.

[@BossfightArcade]

I love that she had deadly alliance kicks and the B1 launcher

[@GhostFu]

They gave cyrax a classic ninjutsu string from deadly alliance. She does the backhand chop thing that ground bounces.

[@bilbobaggins3068]

Yeah that Cyrax string that’s the backhand into a kick is straight up Atrocitus’ b2,3. Very well could be a restand

[@Codename_aether]

Similar to raidens back 1,4 in mkx which also restands

[@dimentioo]

omg it is lmfao

[@three_6_D]

Cyrax and Sector were heavily influenced by the Predator, the Net missiles, and Cyrax's self destruct fatality

[@HeadlessMetal]

I have rewatched this like 10 times. I need more Cyrax in my life lmak

[@chillzz_x]

I just noticed her slide ender after corner carry net looks like it has the same animation as her overhead that looks like B2, meaning I think you can do either overhead or low from that and with kameos that could be so strong, I am absolutely LOVING this character rn🔥 Edit: right after I noticed, you guys mentioned it😂 I wrote the comment before you guys said it

[@MrTravyTrav]

Solid analysis as always boys I love seeing so many of the legacy moves returning to these characters, the familiarity always hits. God, I'm so excited for September 😩

[@mandalorianhunter1]

I just watched it and I'm hyped. Guy or girl, Cyrax never stops being hyped.

[@peterevans2854]

Yeah I’m appalled by the amount of hate towards the gender swaps. Now we have both of the genders since they are kameos too. I love the redesigns. Sektor will be the first female I play in MK1.

[@ajmolhussain7025]

​@@peterevans2854 These are the same mfs who complain about Cyrax and Sektor being ladies when the duo where not playable and turn a blind eye on Janet , Frost , the female ninjas (Scorpion, Sub Zero , Reptile, and Ermac) and Madam Bo . The doomposting needs to stop

[@cjhedrick6418]

That fatality's not really at the level of their MK9 finishers, but it's still one of their betters. Of course, since they die in about half of them, anything's an improvement.

[@doootheytho9821]

That 2 hit overhead chop string that launches at around the 1:33 mark. the animation used for the overhead chop… am I trippin or didn’t someone use that chop in one for the 3D era MK games?? It just looks so familiar. If so, nice callback

[@facuuaf]

Yes!! It was a launching attack in one of his stances

[@kobasteele4965]

Yup ironically it lead to a otg combo with bombs

[@peterevans2854]

100 bucks says we will get alt costumes ( for $$ ofc ) of them as MK3 versions + robot smoke. I’m calling it here and now.

[@bumgop]

As cool as that would be, im so tired of the invisibility moves in mk1 😅. Ive put hundreds of hours into the game and i still struggle with reptile and smoke exclusively because of the invisibility.

[@yaskygaming]

And yup! That's a new kameo move for Subzero

[@CRiSiS_iNFiNiTE]

honestly, since i was little ive wanted sub zero to be a villain again, and im sooooo happy we get evil bi han back. i know they’re just gonna kill him off again, but im loving it while it lasts

Hope Cyrax does The Predator Self Destruct👊. This Really reminded me of "2018 Shane Black The Predator" The Suit Quinn puts on at the End of the Movie.

[@FlappableElf]

Dang! This trailer gave me chills! I really like the fatality, it reminds me of Li Mei’s in MK Deception! It is a little too quick though

[@edd4131]

I think it’s perfect. Super dope and straight to the point.

[@OsOl0K0_ttv]

I'm not seeing anyone talk about the overhead cancel into low, that's the craziest thing in this trailer.

[@MrMcCoy987]

Someone really loves the Yautja. There are a lot of predator references in here.

[@chrange9714]

I do agree that the fatality, while definitely cool, doesn't really fit Cyrax.

[@MARK-r6c3k]

It's Cool you guys are finally getting your characters back. You've done so much for the franchise.

[@joossenk]

maybe Cyrax Tremor could be good. You could make some moves save with him just swaping trought his elements while hitting in the swap and the armor is good.

[@vilek_7235]

I was definitely not expecting cyrax to be a capoeira style fighter, and as a brazilian that makes me so happy because I've always wanted to see that in a MK game

[@aSTROnomical_8]

The bomb is homing cause she meter burned it and I bet the new with the corner carry us also only because she metered burned it as well

[@aSTROnomical_8]

If that B2 she canceled out of into a low is an overhead that will be one of the best moves in the entire game cause you are 100% guessing

[@vmj2000]

Sektor might be a Black Widow

[@ryanrowe1975]

Can’t wait

[@kyb7795]

I wish this video included the reference moves you were referring to

[@TeddysStarksGaming]

[@magicmamba915]

[@wraithcadmus]

So, I stopped playing MK much around Trilogy (yes, I'm old), but got back into fighting games recently on a technical level. Is everyone actually bent out of shape over them gender-flipping Sektor and Cyrax or is this manufactured outrage? I always felt they were the replacements for Daniel Pesina's ninjas in the day because of all that mess, but turned into their own thing, so making them capoeria power armour seems just... cool?

[@idiotwithanopinion8082]

MK just has a really toxic side to it. During 11, people got pissed Jade wasn't dressed like a stripper and was wearing armor, they got mad that Tanya was given more black features, claiming she was never black when she always has been, and now they're mad that Cyrax and Sektor are women. Has a Sektor main from X, I absolutely love the change and am honestly more worried whether she'll play like the Sektor I know but based on how much MK1 Cyrax has taken from Mk9 Cyrax, I'm much more confident my main will be back in her full glory

[@chazzt.k6576]

Absolutely manufactured outraged. I don't understand how any from of Cyrax look at this trailer and be disappointed. Their designs look sick and gameplay looks like the best they've ever been. In motion they don't even look like women, they look like cyborgs.

First, I will be Honest I laugh in the Red Wedding Joke as I find it Ironic as GOT is from WB and I’m hoping Harumi doesn’t Die Again, Idc if Cyrax is Genderbend, as a THlCC Accent, or a Human with Iron Man/Midnight Angel Like Armor instead of a Cyborg, as long as Mustard has Nets, Trick Bombs, Saws that would make Predator and Green Goblin Blush, Clever Tactics, is accurate to the Character’s Lore, and Ninja Like Reflexes that makes Her more Human than Machine with a Similar Gameplay to MK9, I’m Ok with this and NRS didn’t Disappoint as I’m Happy Cyrax is Playable as a Individual after 13 Years, still has Humanity and Judgement that makes her Different from Sektor and will see the Flaws of the Clan with Sub-Zero and Sektor being the Best Example of them Corrupting It, Her Gameplay is Fun with Speed, Agility, Tactics, and a Mix of Martial Arts and Ballerina Style with the 3D Spinning Kick, has a Cool Fatal Blow and Fatality that’s Simple Quick, Painless, and Unique as Possible and I love it, the Wasp Animality makes Sense as she does Look and has the Colors of Bumblebee, Looks Badass, and My Youngest Sibling is a Huge Fan of the Mustard Ninja, Even i know PND Mustard is Happy the Character Return, Welcome Back to the Land of the Living Cyrax and this Shows NRS can do Genderbend Characters Right than Rocksteady and Sweet Baby Inc.
