Friday Night Fisticuffs - Mortal Kombat

[@ImpalingWire]

this channel made me feel like i actually had freinds. i really miss them

[@ninjawork111]

this intro hurts every single time.

[@richardpreston7333]

We all do

[@MinishCapKing]

The intro actually makes me feel sad 😭😭

[@crapnuggets202]

My first video by these guys was the MK9 machinima back in the day

[@PrinceZakariyya]

same.

[@Nickropolis]

"I desperately want to see Johnny Cage in MKX old and sagging" "...and he still thinks he's the best" So basically, you want Ric Flair as a playable character in the MK universe?

[@hardcorescissors582]

You sir are brilliant.

[@gamedragonify]

Nickropolis Johnny Cage wins FATALITY! WOOOOOO!

[@NeutralGuyDoubleZero]

Nickropolis Hes actually aged really well in mk x despite being like 43.

[@billyjoe7225]

Nickropolis already happend

[@codyrochester5061]

Well Ric spills enough of his own blood to be the new "Meat".

[@PunkDuck]

MK9 is to me what Mahvel is to Woolie. I'm so hyped that you guys made this video.

[@LargeInCharge77]

Its not too late to get help

[@MrReaperjon]

"I just hope Duck Hunt is in smash 4" "Nah man that's gotta be photoshopped"

[@MetalVannan]

It never fails. Despite watching each and every single episode of FNF, that opening still makes me feel like a part of the friends and warms my heart. Every time.

[@zaodedong9935]

Woolie seems very welcoming, "You ready to play?" It takes me back to the couch VS. games of the 90's.

[@TheSecondOne123]

I should not have laughed as hard as I did at "Burn Victim Freddy".

[@Squidbeep]

I can't believe it's been over 4 years and barely anybody has noticed that Matt switched the controls by accident

[@parodysam]

He’s like the switcher!

[@PureMetalDragon]

So I feel like dropping some random MK trivia. According to the rumours, when they were making Johnny Cage, Boon and Tobias where looking a real "Hollywood" sounding name. They already had Johnny, but apparently it's when one of them saw an ad for a Nic Cage movie that they settled on the last name. Now top of the irony, Nic Cage is a huge comic nerd, and decided to name one of his kids after his favourite Marvel hero: Ghost Ride, aka Johnny Blaze. Yup, Nic Cage has a son named Johnny Cage.

[@GreaserMan]

Well, that's just not true. I know that because his favourite Marvel character is Luke Cage hence the stage name Cage.

[@Shadowfire204]

Fun fact: the actor who played live action Quan Chi in that Sub Zero game was actually the original Kano actor

[@johnnyjoestar3449]

"Trying to burn a guy named rain doesn't sound like a good idea." Meanwhile in the MKX comic.....

[@holdencole4896]

Meanwhile, in Tanya's MKX ending...

[@maryray4960]

Johnny Joestar Rain:AHHHHHHHH IT BURNS IT BUUUuuuuurns (this is not an exact copy of what rain said in the comic because I never read them)

[@jakejutras5420]

@@maryray4960 so why the fuck comment that way? And 4 years later? Lmfao

[@joescannoli7660]

Mary Ray sounds like something the cultist or Caleb say in blood when set on fire.

[@michaeltheodore5149]

"Set fire to the rain" - some British lady

[@wollsmoth69]

Pat was trying so fucking hard not to just say “everything on Max’s channel is absolute clickbait”

[@tiredburns6021]

Not much has changed.

[@nexusgiga]

one year later, both alien and predator are in mk

[@zaneseibert]

And Duck Hunt was in Smash 4.

[@AzeemKhan-qg7kk]

They also mentioned robocop & terminator and now they are in mk

[@aceofhearts573]

I learned so much from watching these videos....now we will never get new since the friendship ended.

[@PhoenixDemon94]

this is still my favorite MK game from the past generation for a couple of reasons. the game was ripe with easter eggs, even if you sucked, you had fun, the game included Babalities which were fun to pull off against friends, and this is the last MK game that had visible damage to characters as you fought. i don't know why Netherrealm Studio won't bring that back

[@CerinianLady]

Ermac's head, arms and legs blew off his body was awesome!

[@koushiro27]

This reminds me of when I beat all of mk konquest. Why did i beat all of mk konquest

[@BananaMate]

Because it's amazing

[@InsomniacUN]

Not gonna lie, I thought it was amazing, too. I beat it like 3 times, maybe more.

[@jorts6255]

Man fuck konquest. Fast forward about 10 years later when I realize it was actually shit.

[@Mareepu]

In accordance to your lovely icon, my first thought was 'did you mean beat _off_?', complete with the eyebrow wiggle and elbow jabbing. Then I hit myself for being a terrible person.

[@TheStrongNerd]

Dat thumbnail tho

[@Hannya_c]

I was waiting for a Face/Off reference with the magnetic floor lol

[@AussieDragoon]

Scorpion and Ninja Reptile are masters of the face/off. They keep switching faces to see if anyone knows the difference.

[@omomomo951]

11:52 GJ MATT ON SWITCHING THE KICKS LOL

[@JoaoLucasK]

23:26 - When Stryker says "Police Brutality", he's definitely not kidding

[@joeysingingchannel]

Watching Woolie just eat it from the hacks in Test Your Luck mode made my goddamn week.

[@SeanMoscardini]

How unbelievably terrible they are at performing fatalities will always be a source of infinite frustration to me

[@yozen1995]

As soon as this showed up in my sub feed a lightning storm happened outside, I'm not sure what to make of this.

[@tat2kid714]

Me too... :|

[@StrikeTeam99]

***** The storm is coming can you feel it!? Zubaz confirmed

[@ultraspinalki11]

Woolie: "Kotal Khan looks like my guy." Ohhh boy.

[@li-limandragon9287]

To be fair Kotal was awesome in MKX and the MKX comic, it was just MK11 they ruined him along with most other characters especially Shao Kahn.

[@ultraspinalki11]

@@li-limandragon9287 In MKX? You mean when he got wrecked by bow-and-arrow boy and then chickened out when Shinnok was freed?

[@JohnD131]

I like how Patt calls Chang and Choi "Cheech and Choi" and no one minds it. Please, someone draw Cheech Marin with Choi, I think that`s a good pair.

[@HashUpAshole]

So everyone hear the news today about Goro being a DLC character? Thanks Ed Boon!

[@SOH94]

It's a pre order character...

[@HashUpAshole]

Blackstarkills Oh shit, that is even worse. Fuck off Ed Boon and pre-order bullshit.

[@shinesparker1169]

Fuck Goro.

[@CosmicApe94]

HashUpAshole implying Ed boon is the only dev/studio to have DLC or PRE order bonuses. Fuck off

[@Tsureiki]

gamer4life That doesn't excuse it, you fuck.

[@SwagbitoUchiha]

MORTAL KOMBAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAT!!!!!!

[@MrTheFro1]

Every fucking time I see your profile pic and name, it gets a chuckle out of me.

[@llOrochill]

How's Rin

[@erwin21381]

Fight!

[@ParagonBourne]

Toasty

[@SSIILLIE]

Y r u everywhere. I dont mind tho...

[@spartan3924]

It's so weird watching an hour of a game and feeling like there is more to do I still think Mortal Kombat is one of the most fun to watch fighting games especially when they actually pull off the good kombos

[@mitchwhite5496]

This is like watching early 90s Bulls highlights

[@dawsondebell1603]

I remember playing as Jax against my friend and I got Armless Kombat. I still beat him, but then Jax held up his meat stubs and screamed "Get Some!" GET SOME WHAT?!

[@DemPop]

"I can't wait to dig Freddy in the new Shoujo game" God damn it, Matt

[@richardpreston7333]

Pat's Australiophobia is a highly underrated moment in SBF Zaibatsu history

[@li-limandragon9287]

As Australian myself, it feels me with glee. Dunkeroos are disgusting tho.

[@demilung]

Kenshi and Noob are two characters with Jojo Stands.

[@briancahill9594]

Anyone else think Dio would feel right at home in an MK game lol?

[@TheReaper2380]

6 years later still a great vid but why 13 ads seems a bit much

[@NurseValentineSG]

20:21 John Cena vs the Mummy. Coming soon to Disney DVD.

[@lazyeyedjalen9291]

Freddy Krueger, Rain and Kenshi are amazing DLC characters. Kenshi being the best

[@lazyeyedjalen9291]

***** I had an amazing team with Baraka and Freddy. they fit so well together.

[@SauceX206]

JalenXHoward I ran with Rain and Sub Zero.

[@GreenGimmick]

Didn't Kratos appear in this one too? Think about that for a moment. There is a Mortal Kombat game where Kratos can fight with Freddy Krueger.

[@SauceX206]

GreenGimmick on PS3 only

[@markclay3705]

GreenGimmick i thought kratos was freddy's replacement. correct me if i'm wrong though.

[@trenchcoatjoe1891]

To this day we still don't know how the rounds got fucked up

[@shooterb0y23]

I played the ever loving shit out of this and actually got good at this back when it first came out so I'm gonna be watching this with the most judgemental eye in the world. My arms are crossed and I'm making weird judging noises right now.

[@shooterb0y23]

They're like "HMMMMMMMMM" in case you're wondering.

[@Mareepu]

shooterb0y23 , is it a low-pitched 'HMMMMMM', or a high-pitched 'HMMMMMM'? Because the pitch completely changes the intent of the judgement noise.

[@shooterb0y23]

Mareepu Low pitched, I do not like what I see. I am now stroking my beard and raising my eyebrow.

[@wadespencer3623]

Marge noises.

[@injuryman]

I love how Matt accidentally switched Front and Back Kick and no one noticed.

[@UltimaKeyMaster]

Injustice video: "I'm gonna pick the greatest DC hero of all time...Scorpion." MK9 video: "Who is my favorite Mortal Kombat character? Freddy Kreuger." Nice call back there. XD

[@PrimeTF]

This video's not in the playlist, can you fix that?

[@chnmasaki]

Woolie, sai are used for: Stabbing - poking with the palm heel across the "hilt" Raking - hooking anything you can with the hooks Trapping - catching swords, staves, or spears in the hook and then disarming or breaking the weapon in question Smashing - as you said, using the pommel to strike, reinforcing a punch Parrying - like a sword, deflecting an oncoming attack Flicking - with the hand holding a hook, flicking the opposite hook, pointy end, or pommel into the face or soft tissue of the enemy And planting rice. Sai are bad ass. The only two things that are ever bullshit are throwing them (metal weapons were never thrown unless they were caltrops) and holding the main part of the "blade" as a handle. The fingers should always be around the handle itself or the hooks where they form the hilt. That was an awesome Fisticuffs!

[@destructodude]

Kung Lao was awesome as the vagrant. Making him Liu Kang's Shaolin brother was the worst thing they could do to him, and it breaks down the logic of a man that kills people with his hat. Does that mean the Shaolin temple teaches Death Hat? It's better if it's just a thing he learned on his adventures.

[@SorakuFett]

Remember when Liu Kang gained the power of Shazam? Except instead of screaming "SHAZAM!" He would scream "MORTAL KOMBAT!"

[@briancahill9594]

And instead of lightning it he would be struck by an MK 1 arcade cabinet

[@TobiTheHedgehog]

Wait what? How did I miss this one? Is this one even in the playlist?

[@jugemujugemu4690]

It's not.

[@TobiTheHedgehog]

Damn it Woolie.

[@PaulSoth]

Gotta admit, the dev team worked their asses off for this game.

[@CurtisStevensWander0]

I wanted the intro to be the door opening and Woolie screaming "MORTAL KOMBAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAT"

[@goldenwolf657]

Everyone's getting on the MKX hype train. And by everyone I mean Max and the Zaibatsu lol.

[@Nauticalsky]

I wanna be excited but I honestly can't say i have a lot of faith in the MK design team. The dark memories of the PS2 era designs :(

[@kayokango]

There was nothing wrong with those designs.

[@calamarata_]

kayokango "There is no war in Ba Sing Se"

[@kayokango]

um.....what?

[@RuthlessAvocado1]

Goldenwolf Hell, it sold five or six million copies so the hype train was real.

[@FrozenPhotonX_X]

This intro further cements my want to spend a day with these guys.

[@dabhands44]

Is it bad that this is what reminds me its friday haha absolutely love it guys, always makes me happy, keep up the good work... you, the hypest of zaibatsus on the interwebs :)

[@exiledPostman]

You heard it here first. Freddy Kreuger and Kenshi, confirmed for the next Mortal Katawa

[@exiledPostman]

I was hoping for a Kenji Vs. Kenshi deathmatch.

[@BurninatorXIII]

IT'S KOMBAT TIME

[@Dasgath]

Isn't that right..... Blubber butt.

[@Chadius]

***** We need to think of a plan, or we're gonna get....CAUGHT

[@FallenSanityG]

As King of Australia, and of course Duke of Canadia, I can safely say we ADORE your jokes.

[@fillerdmon9270]

Does anyone else genuinely like some of the characters that most people shit on? I legitimately like Li Mei. I was a youngling when most of the early Mortal Kombats were released (being completely traumatized then desensitised to fatalities and gore), so Deadly Alliance was the first one that I fully understood and got good at. I kept playing Sub Zero when I was a baby because my brother was Scorpion, but my favorite character of the series is actually Li Mei. I legitimately like her as a simple character: "My people are being put to slavery by this bad guy, but if I can enter his tournament and defeat him, I can earn their freedom." Later "I got backstabbed, but then saved, and now I fight for the good guys." That's nice, and I had fun with her combos. And truth be told, I prefer her very first outfit over the rest. A good female character doesn't always need a bikini...

[@lyfeindeyth]

Everything they do Mortal Kombat related is amazing. I love it.

[@razrPAIN]

I'm trying to imagine the point when Pat gets to the part in Jojo where Dio is Reptile

[@johnroberts8476]

Does anyone remember that Mortal Kombat album that had songs based around the characters?

[@Wartooth91]

That one round at 14:30 was because of the combination at the beginning of the match during the loading screen. dont press buttons!

[@IrishWolfos]

34:55 Once again, Woolie tries to play as the boss character XD

[@gyutarosan5311]

[@Aikaosu]

"Back, Down, Back, Down, B?" Mortal Kombat: The Backdown

[@NaotaInka]

11:54 I'm only about 17 minutes in now but I'm curious if The Best Friends will ever noticed Matt accidentally switched the buttons around for Front and Back Kick on that controller and if it will screw up anyone's combos. Though MK has always seemed to lack a lot of combo work it seems. At least from my limited experience with it. I could be entirely wrong here. Been playing a lot of BlazBlue lately and in comparison watching MK footage and having played MK again recently-it feels slow and sluggish.

[@StrikeTeam99]

lol matt thinks the mk girls outfits are too much, yet in the fun time adventure is drooling over them? Are their multiple matts?

[@GreenGimmick]

Goofy Matt and PC Matt

[@StrikeTeam99]

GreenGimmick makes sense

[@suwatsaksri7191]

Goofy Matt and Fanboy Pat all the way :)

[@TheGarfield0]

I think it's more 'they all look the same'

[@rosenrot234]

I just kinda figured the animated version of Matt was a exaggeration. That or maybe he matured a bit since then. Could be the upcoming Marriage.

[@Firestar4041]

Welcome back to "Menu fuckery, with the Schmuck crew" Starring; Matt Mc-I don't know how buttons work-cels

[@CrazyPangolinLady]

My take on sexy lady costumes: they have to own it. It has to make sense, and fit the girl's personality. Like Beyonetta

[@CrazyPangolinLady]

BUT! If there's a whole bunch of lady characters, it's best if they have a variety of personalities and personal styles. If they're all super sexy and in revealing clothes, it stops being about interesting characters and just starts being about boobs. Plus, it's just plain boring.

[@jkfd97]

[@TC-sx2mg]

for all the true believers out therem 17:13 is where the game REALLY starts

lmao!! I love it when Pat gets so salty!! he turns into Marge.. hahaha

[@afatchimp]

Fatality Counter: Matt = 1 (As Jade) Woolie = 0 Pat = 1 (As Sektor) Liam = 0 I barely ever play MK9 (I've played it twice, despite owning it), but can't you perform the fatalities even if they're "locked"? I remember the stage fatalities all being the same inputs, which would have been easy to memorize. Those would have been cool to at least see on the various stages.

[@meat_rainbow]

It really bugs me that Reptile's MK1 alt still has the lizard head for the outro.

[@AussieDragoon]

it's like scorpion's skull, he clearly has flesh with his mask on, but then he pulls it off and WHOA MONSTER MASH. It's always been that way with them.

[@mikkolovesgaming1723]

Wish the PC port wasn't so ass about being playable in a window, can't capture it off my screen the way it is now and after watching this I'm SUPER in the mood to play it for my channel.

[@SuperNerdDaniel]

I can't believe no one made a, "Set Fire To The Rain" joke during Rain VS Quan Chi.

[@jaymoneyyy110]

...doesn't Pat later complain that Reptile has gotten too reptiley?

[@Ehh.....]

Pat Raging on Australians is literally the best thing ever. It's so fresh in media.

[@IH8JerseyShore]

Thank you Pat for that Animaniacs reference

[@Kreacher3]

I'd like to think that Baraka at 46:42 is trying to imitate Scorpion and slice his way into the Netherrralm and then awkwardly tries to cover up his failure with a cool pose.

[@KingGhidorah5464]

Wait... so does Pat like less human Reptile or more human Reptile???

[@jugemujugemu4690]

Yeah, he's switched between saying which he likes.

[@calibrationsrequired7655]

I personally like less human Reptile. His new design is really good.

[@EmpressTiffanyOfBrittany]

He likes dignified Reptile. Doesn't matter how he looks as long as he's a noble raptor creature, and not... A slobbering Baraka chode.

[@gr33nriver77]

He has to become less human latrr to become Onaga like in the original timeline

[@lambda494]

There should be a Mortal Kombat: Defenders of the Realm fighting game, with taunts like "ELLO BABY" and "KOMBAT TIME".

[@oneoneonefour]

Thank you Liam for bringing up Terminator 2 against Robocop.

[@SaintUltra]

[@drake1715]

Where they using their lap arcade control things for this? I don't even know if it works in xbox, but if love to know, because playing with arcade controls is so much more fun.

[@DemomanHub]

As soon as I saw the description, I had a feeling that Woolie would be playing Noob Saibot. I think I should probably pursue a career in future-readings!
