THEY RUINED GHOSTFACE... Playing With Nerfed Ghostface - Mortal Kombat 1: "Ghostface" Gameplay

[@Superman049]

Leave a like on the video for ghostface because kira didn't deserve that nerf I know this is temporary but who knows when they will give kira the knife cancel back. for now assassin is ruined

Question...was it the reason why u couldn't continue combos better with assassin..cos there are moments while u in the combo you'd reset

To me he still got the flavour I changed to ferra now. Yeah the knife cancel it does reset unfortunately. Sometimes I used to do it but not a big fan of it. Nerfs has bitter taste, while buffs has stronger taste of bbq sauce.

[@zakime]

That's funny, because on ghost face tutorial kombo 7, you have to do this cancel, even when you put "view demo" the machine fail. So you wil never be able to do all his combo tutorial hahahaha

[@dylanchilders]

Reminds me of the Peacemaker nerf where they fixed his exploit by making it to where you can’t combo into Kano knives or Stryker bombs even in combos where you absolutely should be able to do so

Just give normal ghostface the knife toss and cancel and give Kira sumn else

[@wolfhunterplays3954]

I definitely see how this is a big problem, but I don't play with Assassin anyway, and when even the little time I do, it's only to zone a little, so. This doesn't really effect how I play Ghostface. I'm not saying that to downplay this nerf, because it is bad. They could've got rid of the infinite in other ways, but they chose the worst way. I'm hoping for everyone else, the cancel does come back. NRS has made accidental nerfs before and fixed them, so hopefully they fix this. I'm just saying it luckily doesn't effect me.

And two: thanks for the input. I might consider trying to play by switching killers, but all I’m saying is you don’t have to play him one certain way to make him viable and fun!

[@MementoMori7777]

I HARDLY zone when I use assassin. It's usually Regular moves Mixed in with Mavado's stomp and the Kanoball tackle. I only zone if it's someone annoying like reiko.

[@YiptinFlynn]

Why does he refer assassin as her. I still hear make grunts in assassin

[@ord4everX14]

Ghostface uses a voice manipulatior it's always going to sound male, that's the point of the character in that it can be anyone.

[@blakecollins3037]

Ghostface uses a voice changer underneath the mask to hide their real voice. Assassin ghostface is a female variant of ghostface. Here in MK, her real name is Kira, but she uses the voice changer to make her indistinguishable from the other Ghostfaces, concealing her identity.

[@doom0666]

Ghostface uses a voice changer. Assassin is Kira Ghostface. Remember through out the series of Scream each killer uses the voice changer to sound the same. Mo one knows who is under the mask. Not sure if the same could be said in the Scream show that was on Netflix

Actually you dont have to do the restand, you can do the db3 ex then 44, which is more optimal. Then after the knife cancel you can follow on with db4 back into the 2 2 grab for the reset

No bc the glitch is still possible with Ghostface himself, you can use Kira’s nightshade ability to stun the enemy and do the knife toss cancel

Literally 2 minutes into the video he says that NRS is going to revert the change at some point while they fix what’s causing the infinite. People think it’s as simple as pressing 2 buttons to fix it and don’t understand that stuff like this takes time.

[@MementoMori7777]

A. Feels more like a bug than a nerf, because He's not without his bugs, and That cancel's part of his kombo trials, so I doubt they removed it deliberately. B. That's a REALLY dramatic way to word it. Even without the knife cancels Assassin has good moves, and Enforcer too. Billy's far from "Ruined." Heck the Kombo tutorial I made for him doesn't even USE knife cancels, it was all base moves and Kameos.

[@cianeck6993]

Eh.. to be honest (in my case).. I bareIy give a sh!t about this character. Actually.. barely anything in this KP2 makes me really hyped. Edit with an actually point 2: I think MK1 has the worst DLCs ever in any NRS game. Quan Chi and Ermac were already in the frickin story mode. (it happened with MKX Tanya too but at least it was ONE character to be later made as fuIIy playable too.. not with 2 as in MK1). Not a fan of Homelander and Omni-Man even if I think he is ok I still think he would have fit way better in Injustice 2. Actually I feel same for both Homelander and Omni-Man. At least in there he would have fought against Superman. For me it would have been more interesting to see such fights between these 3. Even if H and O are brutal and fit to do fataIs.. their look still gives Injustice / DC vibes. Omni-Man could have been a great crossover DLC for Injustice.. but less for MK.
