Your honestly a really wholesome dude. I enjoy how you can appreciate when the opponent is doing a combo and you kinda cheer em on a bit. You seem like a good sport.

[@m.raflyyanuar9886]

That's what I'm saying! Part of Waz's skill is being able to appreciate others and learn from them.

His honestly is a wholesome dude? How is his honestly as wholesome dude?

[@Ted_from_Mars]

Smoke: was there smoke in your eyes? Kenshi: is that a blind joke?

[@Wazminator]

LMAO

[@sheLuhSy]

Smoke is such a good character in this game and his fighting techniques are so unique and different from how they used to be

[@kwamintaylor4247]

Smoke has always been my favorite MK character. I’m glad they made him a contender in this game

[@florianl8273]

I love how every combo video on KZbin also contains at least 1 insane Raiden combo

[@meander281]

Smoke was the first character I chose to learn this game and its going awesome. Still learning ofc :) Love you Waz! ❤

[@rejner8364]

I can highly recommend to try Smoke with Darrius, might sound stupid but if u learn how to time his ambush assist you can go even for 80% dmg mix up combos! Worth to give Darrius a try ^^

[@spookynemi1996]

I want to see waz do combo trails for all characters.That would be a cool video

[@Dylan08280]

Same

[@CloudNine938]

Im so glad that smoke is back and he's my main. His damage is crazy.

[@Franiac32]

I'm already focusing on Smoke and Shang for this game, so I'm sooo glad to see this videos. Your Smoke is looking klean!

[@Wazminator]

GETTING THERE!

[@MrDrugfreeboy]

​@Wazminator maybe a tutorial on how all the smoke cancels work. Looking to main Smoke but first time playing mk in 15 years.... been trying to practice it but seems impossible

[@kevinacquah9649]

Damn Waz you always impressively amaze me in every MK game. You're the best Waz.

[@toro_sensei]

Never was a huge smoke fan in past games but I really like his design here, on top of that he basically is a dash cancel character which are some of my favorite types of gameplay in my games, although the input method is different for his “dash cancel” it achieving the same thing and I also love that your using sektor kameo also what I like pairing with him I love the restand for smoke since he is heavy mix up character

[@onlysinseer]

I've been labbing Smoke today, too. I kameo with scorpion to extend the vapour combos with a launcher after F12 to stun, and the keep up with F12,1+3 Really fun but timing is crucial. Lemme know of you try it!

[@Yukon27]

bro that match transition at 7:03 was amazing

[@minime1988]

Been doing really well with smoke in ranked he's fun af, Sareena ofcourse is a great kameo for him but Darrius is way more fun. Darrius can hit confirm and full combo off any of Smokes normal strings and if you mess up the cancel and hit someone with his B,F,3 you can full combo for 40% off that too, also allows for grab combos if you call in Darrius mid grab you have enough time to get a 25ish% combo off of a GRAB... Same goes for naked teleport if you can land it, you have enough time to call in Darrius and full combo no meter.

[@JusticeCordell]

Never seen your channel before but I love how you kinda encourage your opponents makes me happy to see a non toxic player in the community. Subscribed also to see content

[@BeardedRage]

Bro this shit was so fire...Smoke is the only character I've put any real time in with...definitely gonna stick with my boy for awhile

[@Caliburnz]

I LOVE playing Smoke with Sektor

[@callmefreeze]

Imo sonya is the best kameo for smoke with her flying attack you can get it after f11grab string, b23,f4, d2,32 and smokes regular throw its pretty crazy!!

[@jtrent4137]

Anyone have any tips for how to do the smoke bf3 cancel consistently? Keep getting bodied because I’m having trouble getting to damage as smoke

[@rahulramsunder4826]

Bro please give us a tier list of all MK1 characters from the "most broken" to "needs a buff".... Because (no offense) u say alot of the characters are strong... So a tier list is a good thing I feel

[@Wazminator]

Maybeee soon

I been loving this character and the contents fire as usual man keep it up 🔥

[@MoRiSnipeR01]

Hey Waz thx for the content❤️. Sub Zero is one of my mains. You think he'll be suitable to be used in high level tournaments or gameplays?

[@Wazminator]

I think he is fine but his damage is kinda sus haha 😵‍💫

[@MoRiSnipeR01]

@@Wazminator oh btw I've found a 32% combo no bar, and a 39% one meter bar and one cameo bar for Sub. Thx for your reply Waz bro❤️🔥

Waz as a tribute to my boy Rain, could you pls do Rain? Also if you do, what do you think about Rain being more of a zoner kinda character?

[@Wazminator]

Recording Rain video today 🔥

I don’t think I have ever won against a smoke player 😂 Busted for me 😂😂

[@geebee2020]

These mastering videos are just as cool as the story ones man good shi

[@sharvisharvz_pyrotechnics5559]

FYI, if you enter a combo with Sector as Kameo and hit right bumper twice, the missle with auto lock on your opponent to setup for another combo.

[@artOVtrolling]

I think it’s Kameo button 2x. Once is just a down missile.

[@SamuraiQuin]

Waz, your Smoke is scary! I am currently using Goro for Smoke. You can kombo of setups you normally wouldnt be able to and build pressure.

[@ribbz22]

Sektor def is the best w/Smoke. You can use uppercut to combo from the low/overhead and he gets insane oki. Anything that ends in the corner with flamethrower is a reset and 50-50-throw attempt.

[@KauriSavage-wg2op]

Can you imagine if they added Krushing Blows to this game😮

[@Indy_Pint]

Smoke/Sektor main here 💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾 Smoke fight so arrogantly on here lol love it .. too me he’s def top ninja now

[@tristanchriesmon1056]

Wow...my brotha ur making smoke look sic I'ma definitely have to use him now I really enjoyed the matches

[@DragonDoper]

Smoke is a solid character, reminds me of Mad dog from The Raid. Sick, he is the only reason I play MK1 and scorpion

[@TSNMLitoFightingGamesPassion]

Waz “Main The Cast” Inator was only showing 2% of his actual power! That Smoke combo in 2:05 was an example

Did anyone else notice that 🔥 transition at 7:06

[@wickedjack2752]

Hey waz if you didn't know if you go invisible then do a brutality smoke will remain invisible for part of it. Make its look better

[@SavagePitbull-x-]

I’m loving smoke. I’m just having issues getting the cancel consistently

[@JayDone16]

I’m just asking anyone here. What kameo do you recommend for reiko? Cause so far I’ve just been manning Stryker.

[@JayDone16]

Maining

[@Wazminator]

I recommend stryker too lol

[@JayDone16]

@@Wazminator yea his mix ups are OP👌

[@redjaguar6883]

Try Goro if you get the Shao Kahn looking mask for Reiko. It's a great team. It'll be like the good ol days lol. Goro as sub boss with Reiko looking like Shao Kahn.

[@michaelhurst4909]

Ready for the random select gameplay

[@jeremynelson5332]

It would be awesome if u could post videos of combo tutorials on each character. Your insane at mortal kombat

[@PqraNoiia]

I post that

[@darthuchiha9870]

GG man. I’m new to taking online seriously and I picked out smoke for a main just on aesthetics, good pick I guess LOL

[@andrewedwards7477]

So we just not gonna talk about the nasty transition at 7:00

[@diegobustamante4141]

I'd love to see some General Shao gameplay, great video as always

[@derek3920]

Waz nasty with it

[@thabisomodisakeng5989]

I want to see Waz play against Sonicfox that would be dope

[@NerdLegionInc]

Try Jax cameo. It opens up so many more combos. Sonya also pretty good

[@FrankLeBluff]

Hey, I was wondering how you go invisible at 3:10 ? I've never managed to do this

[@jorgeaguilar1403]

I’m wondering as well!

[@jorgeaguilar1403]

I think I found the answer… db4 is his low teleport. If you hold forward is cancels. I BELIEVE if you ex and cancel he goes invisible! Will try in the lab later!

[@smoothcriminal_]

Smoke is definitely top 1

love your videos man. watching you has made me into a better mortal kombat player. taught me so much and taught me to love this gave

[@basketballlegend4053]

play low tier Sub (I can actually say this now cuz of the nerfs)

[@dimitriskanteres2623]

What nerfs did he get besides the very very low damage? I don't know because I don't own the game but I watched gameplay of SubZero in the beta

[@IQRyze]

Yo waz I finally got ur notifications i haven’t been getting them since mk1 but I’ve always got notis on

[@MrShiftySide]

I honestly hope he doesnt get nerfed. Its still early. I imagine in time people will be better at dealing with his mix. Hes the only real mixer we have rn. If they gotta do it just dont touch the 50/50 game he has pls

[@karl343]

He won't get nerfed, Sonic Fox has Smoke below top tier. He is a fairly well-balanced character, not broken like Raiden, Baraka or Kenshi.

[@MrShiftySide]

@karl343 I agree. But casuals are the louder majority and usually complain more about what's seemingly "cheap" than what's strong. Smoke is so fun in this game I'm maining him despite being a Scorpion main since deception

[@karl343]

@MrShiftySide Casuals opinions with regards to balance don't matter in an eSports focused fighting game. The developers will listen to the pro player's feedback and balance accordingly.

[@michaelking7874]

He's not cheap bro your just that Good!

[@willlyboii]

Smoke top 5 frfr

[@Wazminator]

Might be 👀

[@donovandoesart]

Lui Kang on top

[@cloudlop]

My main they did not disappoint

[@wallgolfing]

Jesus is King!

[@devondavis5119]

Amazing combos

[@CameronDC-Grimes]

I don't think Smoke is cheap, i think they have added veriety and fun to MK1 instead of having a watered down version resembling MK11

[@jackjax7921]

MK1 or MK9? Which is objectively better?

[@IcedCrit]

always a good day when Waz posts

[@iliketacos369]

🌮

[@TwistedIdentity]

I decided today he's my main. Has so many 'peekaboo' attacks, gets me out of a bind every time XD

[@caseystradley4660]

Mk is too intriquite for me, watching other people play characters us so awesome, then I play and I can never combo so I’m stuck hittin a x,square,triangle combo over n over, and it’s so slow so it doesn’t even look cool it’s just boring

[@regku6731]

Waz or anyone who could possibly tell me where to send my clips to show I managed to pull a 52% combo( practice but in a online match it does 50%) with smoke after watching this video and I want to see if he would like it.

[@Nicoshow_FGC]

I dont know if is only me , but i miss smoke bomb on smoke and the green projectiles on Johnny cage, Mk1 is good , but dam (not the RESETS , only throwing smoke bombs, smoke in this game is like a generic ninja idk),

[@eh4372]

I’m actually really fed up of fighting smoke his smoke teleports are so cheap it’s literally guessing game for most of the match. Feels to cheap Iv even just stopped fighting them. I get ok one match then I leave. Can’t put up with it. Not fun

[@jessestewart3835]

I'm struggling to beat anybody who just crouch blocks because he has only 1 overhead and it's easy to block...20 hours learning smoke wasted

[@j88dragon]

Awesome man I had no idea you had a twitch channel I will definitely be giving it a look you make amazing videos man and I feel like you definitely have what it takes to compete against some of these guys tournament-style

[@fallenangel4209]

To all the smokes use frost guaranteed damage if you grenade teleport and frost freeze at the same time. More guaranteed damage if you freeze after your back triangle leap then follow with a number of devastating combos trust

[@tommyrecognize6]

This is why this game isn't fun to play online tho for me..I don't want to learn and do the same 2 30 hit combos over and over... and that's all everyone does
