I actually had Input Window Timing on to Long the whole time. Now that I changed it, I actually can do side switching juggles without accidentally inputting a special move XD

Best explanation of negative edge I’ve seen

Brrroooo!!!!! This makes so much sense now. I have been straight struggling with accidentle special moves and its been driving me crazy!!! Thank you for this. 👍

[@ericwalker6477]

The release check wasn’t too bad until I started playing Ermac. Then I went back to Reptile and it was so much better. I can’t believe it’s on as default!

[@jorbu1423]

ohh man I cant believe you have ben like this all this time

[@amanshrivastava6596]

This happened with me when i started learning Mileena…. I was executing accidental special move

Of course he's playing wrong, he broke his controller silly

Thanks for explaining this TrueUnderDawg I never understood what release check was so i guess I've been playing every MK wrong! Let's Go TrueUnderDawg!!!!!!! 👊🏻🎮🐉🦂🦂🦂✌🏻

[@slipstream615]

Omg! This video was very informative. I was getting so frustrated with characters performing moves that I did not intend while performing combos. Thank you!

[@wolfhunterplays3954]

I love your content Trueunderdawg!!! I really despise release check! I’ll never understand why it’s always on by default.

[@17thghost42]

You gotta be kidding me so release check has been my enemy this whole time and i never knew it DAMN! 😅 thank you for this

[@AdamF8]

Same here tbh im leaving it off forever now 😁

[@tsvetelin6556]

Thanks to youtube I have learned to have this settings right even back when I started with MK11 7 months ago.. but I would have had some problems if I haven't seen a video from another channel so it's great you posted it too!

[@danteburger6345]

This helped forsure been kind of noticing something up with my gameplay now that im getting more experienced. Did not know about these settings or that this is how the inputs worked. Thanks✌

[@iam1894]

Yea ngl, release check is mad helpful. Not everything is for everyone. Didn’t even realize I had release check when I made it to Elder God, and just kept it on. Once ERMAC came out I started had to change it. But tbh since I’m a geras and a Havik main it really helps with the time stop cancels and what not. It’s really good especially when using a string where the last button input is going to be similar to whatever special I’m canceling into. All I gotta do is do the directional part then let go. Feels a lot smoother and easier to flow that way.

[@ThePeej75]

This explains why I have been getting 122 with input 12 or 121 lol!

[@illuminatidad]

I think the reason for these weird settings is that when you invite people to play this game who are noobs or never played before it allows them to more easily do awesome special moves without them having to actually look at the settings. Basically it creates more hype and action for people who are new and know nothing.

[@iimaru4752]

This actually helped so much with the special move amplify. I thought the game was just programmed/designed stupidly or that there was something wrong with me. No matter what I did the special move amplify only works 1/10 times, I tried doing the inputs differently, holding the amplify button, spamming etc, it was very inconsistent. But now I pretty much get an amplify every time, Yey now I won't have to drop the combo halfway through

[@mecha_nemesis_6897]

I need to test this when I get home cause I wasn't even aware of this! But it makes sense as to all those times when I'm trying to input something else and my ass is just standing there eating a combo

[@willthelemon5681]

Super helpful! I been on the Tekken grind but i wanted to come back to see how MK1 was doing and man its been an adjustment and a half.

[@christianplacek5451]

Omg thank you i never knew this excited

[@MyName1sJosh]

The scenario you recreated with Mileena has happened to me soooo many times after ducking 🤦🏽‍♂️. This is going to save my life 😂

[@Byrdman-mg2mr]

Good example of the last point is scorpion and his back 3. If you duck a projectile and try to punish with back 3 there’s a chance to get the teleport

[@tbgtabias]

literally happens to me all the time

[@GasMK]

Me watching the video as a veteran MK player thinking there was something I didn't know...😅 glad you told beginners I guess

[@Cyber_Syko]

Ive been doing kombo trials with release check, i just turned it off and im completing them no problem. Truly thank you

[@NLSasuga]

I remember MK9, where you couldn't turn off negative edge. Terrible. It messed up my pressure so many times.

[@crunchysx]

thank you so much!! this made every character SO MUCH easier to play

[@bamaguyinny]

OMG! Thank you. I was wondering why during the character challenges my character would sometimes do a triple punch combo instead of a double punch, when I was literally pressing the correct combination and nothing more and why it was so damn difficult to execute some of the simplest attacks without getting something totally different. Input timing is critical. I can't wait to play again tonight. Thank you!!!

[@jaredadams620]

Hmm🤔This is actually a good thing to know, when going through and dissecting a characters moves. This could very-well fix all the issues I've been having.

[@og_paulsack]

Best video you’ve done in quite a while-more stuff like this please!

[@footballn4life1]

Appreciate the overview and explanation! I had forgotten to turn these settings off and was getting those weird unexpected inputs and wondering why.. Thank you!

[@jeremyf1901]

This looks like really good suggestions! I bet this helps a lot of people.

[@Bmxvtec23]

One of your best videos. I always played on long cause never knew what this option meant lol. I always got input errors cause of this and would cost the game. When someone would whiff. Changing this to medium to start.

[@areonsflame4285]

That's good to know about the input

[@QuanuMakeMeRich]

Im so glad you told me about release check. I got used to putting in some inputs backwards because i didn't want the extra moves 😭

[@thatmantruetothegame198]

Thanks so much Man this video is very very helpful can’t wait to switch it and see🙏🏽💪🏽🔥

[@robertstull8759]

I can see release check being useful for players that might have digital mobility issues. Meaning that it's really hard for them to press and release buttons quickly, making it much harder for them to do rapid button presses. They'd still have to learn how to play the game around this feature, but it could allow them to pull of crazy combos despite having slower input times. Even in this case, however, it would be such a niche situation that I don't understand why it's on by default. It would make more sense for it to be like the proximity sounds that help visually impaired players, a great feature for players who need it and should absolutely be included in the game... but not set to default.

[@hiimlorenzo807]

Turning off release check can actually make you play worse. I’m an Ashrah main and I decided to turn off release check and I regretted it because I kept dropping combos that require f2,df3 ex . So be careful when you turn it off.

[@ektrfirefox2571]

Bro thank you for that release check settings I was checking my inputs and I thought I was going insane. I have never seen it or needed in any other fg game

[@ellisi6439]

I usually play MK1 at school since one of the teachers has a PS5 and he lets us play on it on weekends. I remember turning off release check on his console and I don't remember doing a special move accidentally.

[@AdamF8]

Omg thankyou so much for this i never knew about release check, am gonna play with these settings now permanently 😎💚💙🔥👍

thanks for the tips and that’s why he my favourite

Thank you I’ve been stuck wondering why my pop up never hit with Li mei this really helped alot

[@wyrmhaven6843]

my mind is blown, cause i always do things when I did not plan on it!

[@NA_Lead94]

You should put Ermac as an example, because if you use forward 3 and down back 2 with the release check on, he is going to teleport 11 times at a 10

[@jaidora]

I can think of only one reason for negative edge and it’s tied to Street Fighter, you hold down the button on a single input like a forward 1 or 4 that’s safe on block and release it when you see an opening. For MK it’s not as likely than you’d expect.

[@XdMj]

bro this actaully helped, I use sub zero and when my opponent blocks the back triangle I immediately do the ice slide, and before it was bad because like 70 percent of the time the ice slide wouldn't input and it would instead input the ice klone but now i can hit it every time. Thanks underdawg

[@michaelmarshall7725]

I didn't realize this.....I'm gonna change it up and see the results this evening.

[@rotemegozi1044]

Same(the whole time I thought I just suck at the game)

[@rey1ando]

Wish I woulda seen this when the game released 😂 I ended up playing with my settings in practice and turned off release check a few months back

[@IceColdProfessional]

This took my gaming experience from 0 - 💯..... REAL QUICK!

[@TheBassSinger]

I like to use negative edge on Street Fighter but not for Mortal Kombat. It is a game by game basis.

[@AdrianTF1x]

Omg! This is so helpful! I’ve had release check on 😭

[@KoolSocietyFilms]

It’s definitely bad for Ermac with that air cancel move

[@dominiclane8538]

The input thing is real .I was wondering why I could not even complete combos on training even though doing the inputs correctly .I'm switching everything off

[@danipresto]

Wow i def needed that release check tip

[@isaiahcolon6941]

I spent over a 100 hours of just trying to learn the challenges combos the game has for every character and I had that release check on it makes it almost impossible, I even went to Reddit to rant my frustration of how unnecessarily hard it is to do basic juggles, NRS should be sponsoring you, if my brother didn’t watch your videos I wouldn’t be playing this one

[@grimmjasper3189]

this man made the same exact vid when mk1 dropped.

[@ddsolazy]

Bro thank you I’ve been having so much problems with wrong inputs like I know I didn’t hit the buttons to do that move yet it comes out when I’m trying to do something different like for example I’ve been practicing with Ermac butt when I try to do forward four and when I do the knee and try to go into his air stance it does the teleport like wtfffffffff I did not press circle it was fr making me mad bc I couldn’t do the cool combos I saw from super butt now since I turned that setting off it never does the teleport I’m so happy you made this video THANK YOU

[@hotfunyunsop6196]

Dude im so glad i clicked on this video lol been practicing back dashing rceently, and with raiden i would back up and try to do forward 3 and it would end up doing the flying special move instead lol as a mid player as is it made me felt especially dumb

[@Johnny-him]

Thank you this will help so my dad doesn’t use the same move in for online

[@incrediblis]

release check is actually very helpful to me, i got a new controller with a very meh dpad so executing is way harder but with release check it's way easier, instead of 4bf4 I'd just do 4bf and get both inputs

[@resixrasool7552]

One of my friends need these settings beacause he just press everything all at once 😂

[@aaronwright412]

I needed this help. Just started playing the game and I keep dropping combos

[@rogozo2410]

[@Kazusa.]

thank you, now it feels so much better

[@almightyddadogwilson1743]

Thanks my guy,I never knew....seriously I didnt😮😅

[@bloondestroyer0]

damn this helped, I can finally cancel correctly

[@Ash-gi8yr]

I don't play with negative edge on but I've heard some people find it more useful for timing armoured gaps as you don't need to input the special timing in the gap, or time the special input to complete at the gap, you just queue it up and then release the button - but I have no personal experience with it so can't comment on if that's helpful or not or a good trade-off or not.

[@colbygilmore8003]

People should explain setþings more often

[@datboyetv]

Man this is why I keep gettin random inputs or missed inputs wen I come out of things like block and wat not smh yea im turning that shit off asap

[@barrytooth4306]

This explains everything thanks

[@Jovanoblitz]

Thanks for the Information

[@Azteck9]

It annoys me to no end that if I'm walking back, then blocking with Ermac, after I take my turn back, if I press forward 2 fir his overhead, I get the grab instead. NRS needs to get with the program of there should never be Back - Forward or Down Up moves. Theres enough DF and DB commands to give all these characters 8 special moves.

[@JoeMercer7]

So I’m new playing doing tutorial and was wondering why I couldn’t do the combos properly release check was stopping it

[@epic-arcade-hub]

I am A mortal Kombat player I stream sometimes my game, I want to try mk1so much love that game

[@Lance.Gardenhire]

Oh, so I need to turn off easy input's. I've been ducking people and trying to do D1 with subzero, and so many times I've wondered why the iceball starts coming out.

[@OrdinaryGonzo]

I've had these settings right long ago and I'm still trash 😅

[@MacSauceMcNeely]

So while doing this I noticed peace maker has new adio after a brutality ..can you do a video on the newer audio added to characters? Idk who else may have this. Note: he made fart sounding noises after a brutality ..also thanks alot your videos are Hella helpful informative and just str8 up entertaining!!! Keep at it fam!!!

[@morganelli0t]

There's no fucking way that release check is real, do yall have any idea how many times I dropped a combo with shao because I wanted to end it with 4 + DF2 but the game kept thinking I was making DF4??? NRS gotta be trolling with this

[@AdamF8]

I feel the same way been playing with release check on this whole time and not able to connect kombos fack nrs

[@chewyloyalty]

I play with release check on as I naturally block anytime I’m not attacking. I feel like it gives me a few moments during dial up to change my mind or go a different combo route. I rarely do NEVER have a special move misinputs

[@AidenSabin-g3b]

lol I play with Release check on because its easier to hit confirm. If I have it off then the wrong specials come out. everything else is off.

[@jorbu1423]

You forgot to mention that using the dpad is alot better than using the Joystick.

[@flyingmagicalguy]

I actually need negative edge on, I don't quite comprehend why, but combos seem to come out if it is on, if it isn't I struggle more to do them, important to note, I'm playing on a computer keyboard.

[@Nuggetlord6969]

I think release check is on by default so casuals who just spam can get cool moves immediately. If that’s not the reason I have no idea why it’s on cuz it’s evil

[@Swooperz11]

This is more advanced but I just swapped my dpad on my DualSense for single button dpad buttons. Inputs are cleaner and no mistaken inputs

[@kash3613]

How did u do that? Something off of Amazon u bought? I need to know lol

[@Swooperz11]

@@kash3613 Yep! Bought a pack off Amazon. The seller was eXtremeRate and the pack also came with the tools necessary for disassembly. It can be a bit tricky and stressful disassembling the controller. I have only done it a handful of times and I was able to swap the dpad for the replacement buttons no problem. There are guides all over KZbin. My one complaint is the replacement buttons sit a bit higher on the controller than the standard d pad, but other than that I have no complaints. I would recommend the chrome buttons as well, I got a matte set and while it looks great I don’t love the feel compared to the smoother standard set.

[@Swooperz11]

@@kash3613 Yep! Bought a pack off Amazon. The seller was eXtremeRate. The disassembly wasn’t that bad. Just follow one of the many guides on KZbin. The only complaint I have is the new d-pad buttons sit a bit higher on the controller than the standard d-pad. I also don’t like the feel of the Matte paint finish, I wish I would have gotten a chrome or a clear set for a smoother feel. Other than that they really do make a difference.
