how to play ermac like a PRO in mk1

[@nergal2741]

really well thought out and structured video mate! currently trying to get into ermac and trying to gather all the best explained info i can get, without all the default "here's combos x y z go" keep it up!

[@Nerdybdirty]

Ermac had been my fav since mk9 and when he came out for mk1, he was so frustrating to learn, but once you get the hang, it's rewarding

[@cl0ckwerk]

That’s it! He’s very hard work but extremely rewarding once you know how to play him properly

[@cutiepauu]

got to elder god and won final kombat because of this guide. thanks for awesome guide

[@cl0ckwerk]

Congrats g girl! Glad I could help 😂

[@emmagorington4559]

That definitely happened...

[@XxSYNDROISxX]

W vid mate i feel like i've already gotten better just by watching

[@cl0ckwerk]

Happy to hear it mate! Glad this was able to help ❤️

[@DATABASS-LKM]

Watching this guide definitely helped me to see what i need to improve with ermac and opening people up cause i dont mix my options up. Would definitely like to see stuff with other kameos see whats possible as i main cyrax with him. Always like watching ur ermac dude, keep up the good work 👊

[@cl0ckwerk]

Thank you so much for the kind words mate! I have played cyrax with him before in another video but not since cyrax got buffed. I’ll get around to trying that team out again soon. Glad you enjoyed the guide

[@ajray7665]

Sick guide bro! Ngl I have a whole separate controller for Ermac because I had to break in the D-pad to get wayyy better at these cancels 😂.

[@cl0ckwerk]

Glad you enjoyed it mate! And yes, he is definitely a character where you have to break in a whole ass dpad just to play him 😂

[@KillDozer44]

Your Ermac is goated

[@cl0ckwerk]

Thank you bro ❤️

[@GeneralCba]

cancel into b2 is the top tip I give. I got hung up on his cancel and pressure, but this mid is the game changer. His defence is kinda pants, and getting in can be tough BUT once hes in, it's showtime (until I drop the combo and lose the round). EDIT: I like to use janet for her restand mid screen but for sure gonna add the 400 meter less extension in the corner. HIs armour puts me off still, should be at least a mid. EDIT: This guide slaps, but in future Id rather hear your voice a bit louder than the music...could just be me getting distracted by headbanging

[@cl0ckwerk]

Glad you enjoyed it mate! Thanks for the tip. I’ve been struggling lately with audio and I’ll definitely work on it in the future! Also cancel into b2 is woke catching people trying to press

[@GeneralCba]

@@cl0ckwerk ye cancel into b2 is THE drug. People just won't press a button as its range is mad and pulls them in for ez combo, which I then drop

[@Smeechy]

@@cl0ckwerkno your voice volume is perfect it’s the background music that’s too loud

[@nergal2741]

@@GeneralCba hey, new to Ermac, want to learn (and maybe main?) him. By "cancel into b2" do you mean canceling bf1 *backwards* into b2 or forwards ?

[@CyberTakahashi]

Great video bro. Just a recommendation mix the music a bit lower I guarantee atm it’s peaking over your voice quite often.

[@N2nyo]

Btw I just realised that the input window for the dash after bf 3 is super long, meaning that you can input the dash long while the special animation is playong, then wait until you see ermac start to dash and then jump. It's still tricky since if you click jump before ermac dashes it will cancel the dash, and there is a small window where you can cancel the dash into jump too early and the jump 1 will whiff, but it still makes it a tonne easier. Hope this helps

thx for this man, good guide👍👍

Thanks for the kind words chimp!

[@yomrwhite607]

letsss goooooooo

[@salemmortem4337]

Ermac has been my favorite since umk3 when he first dropped is the year the live action Mortal Kombat movie dropped an when I came to be my dad slapped the cartridge in the console and we would play for hours he is no longer with us but til this day anytime he is on a game he is my main p.s. my dad was a kabal who would splatter my bones across the screen by accident

[@davidepanceri8192]

I can't do the overhead into f4, idk if there is a particular way to input it but it's the only cancel i just can't get consistently

[@EdwinLopez-hf3uw]

Idk if I want to go through the pain of pressing BF1 FF after every button press

[@cl0ckwerk]

It’s definitely a pain, but it’s 100% essential to do at a high level unfortunately

[@tejasvaniya2664]

Good one

[@shotgunsherman]

Yo ty 🙏 so much for the vid man!!! Also what do you do for the janet timing to get the 3 hits Everytime? I sometimes just dont get the 3rd hit. Any tips? Ive tried going fast af with the buttons and slower i cant seem to find the sweet spot.

[@cl0ckwerk]

My bad bro sorry I didn’t explain in the video. Try and watch the inputs on the left hand side during the Janet combo section and you will see how it do it. I double tap for the first two and double tap again when she goes up for her second punch and it works 95% of the time for me. I don’t mash it because it feels more inconsistent. Thanks for the kind words, I hope this helps!

[@shotgunsherman]

@@cl0ckwerk I didn't even think to do that, lol very helpful, you're the reason I picked him up, the way you destroyed ppl with the overhead and cancels it looked sooooooo fun! And it def is, I just need more time with him to get to a good level. I'm at level 2 of 10 id say.

[@Le_Tia]

I can not get the timing on the F2 into the BF1 cancel into F4, DB2, etc Any tips? Timing.. anything?

[@cl0ckwerk]

Like I said in the video it’s just practice practice practice. There’s no trick or specific tech to get it. It took me a few days to be able to get it down 90% of the time but I’m sure if you stick with it you’ll be able to get it!

[@wessuge6763]

Thanx for the video but the music was way to loud.

[@DroppedByGio]

How do you cancel so fast??

[@cesarlmozo]

What controller do you use and settings please ❤

[@gabg6020]

what's the timing for janet to get all three punches? I tried mashing but still cant get it consistently. great work btw!

[@cl0ckwerk]

I’ve found that timing it works much better than mashing. Remember to hold the direction at the same time too some people don’t realise you need to hold it while timing it correctly!

[@nergal2741]

i think if you kinda count like to 4 seconds where she does each hit by you pressing the buttons beforehand, you would leave out the 3rd, so that it's like R R _ R and i think the timing is that the last time you press R is when she hits her 2nd hit. So something like R R (then she jumps twice, while you pause for 1 sec:) ^ ^ and then time it to sync : ^+R

[@mkxlplayer1446]

How are you doing f2 into f4float if you "can't do cancels fast " lol

[@richardzca]

whats with the third janet hit after f43, so inconsistant

[@hayaSe2992]

just boughtthe game yesterday, with Ermac and Janet, and i cant even do the easiest combo 😢.I feel like a rubbish

[@yockhunter]

How’d he get that skin?

[@cl0ckwerk]

It’s a premium skin, can get it when it’s in rotation for the store

[@damecreations1480]

any tips on how to make janet hit 3 times consistently after bf2 in the corner

[@cl0ckwerk]

Best way I’ve found is to double tap for the first two punches, and as she’s rising up for the second punch double tap again for the third. You can also check the inputs on the left hand side to see the timing I do to get the third punch. I don’t get it 100% of the time but I’ve found that timing the punches works better than mashing it

[@Kaeydo]

What’s your input window timing?

[@cl0ckwerk]

Input window timing is short!

[@MidTierMenace777]

Do You have coaching sessions? I'm really bad

[@cl0ckwerk]

I don’t do coaching personally but if you like I can send you a link to get lessons from the best ermac player and he will be able to teach you many things I can’t

[@cl0ckwerk]
