[@NothingnessforZ]

​@@smolltaco5667No, there are many characters that will give him a run for his money and straight up kill him in his own verse. He's only as strong as the lore mentions. Which means anyone that isn't Lui Kang, Geras, and Shang Tsung are getting blitzed.

I think OP has categoric measures. He’s good yes, but OP? Idk. Maybe in the right hands, but as someone who just picks the game up and goes into a match without physically taking an hour to 2 to understand his abilities and what does what, he’s not OP, I made that mistake of just yoloing it into a match and got demolished by another Omni who clearly knew what he was doing lol

[@marekbabik2791]

well .. i would say he is a A tier ... but not S by any means ... which is really good ... he is nice balanced ... not OP not weak either ...he has nice dmg no or one bar but he doesnt gain that much from 3 bars as some other characters ... so u can spear it for breaker or just playing with anyone with ex stance

[@bleezii]

@@marekbabik2791 the only trouble of ran into so far, taking mind, I’ve only played about six matches in total, but smoke gave me a little bit of trouble. I won’t lie.

[@marekbabik2791]

​@bleezii Smoke is a bit hard to play against at first ...but when u get familiar with him ... he is not gonna give u trouble till high ranks ... because lower ranks still thinks only thing they have to do is teleport, bomb or that overhead-low and kick from there side ... which everything is pretty unsafe ..true problems comes when people know hot to use dash cancels and invisibility..... and I find Omniman somewhat alike . Easy to pick but hard to master ... so lower ranks are gonna be really easy to read and punish .

[@rafaelcamargoalves3242]

He looks balanced enought. Omni-Human being definitely both feels and looks unique to play as. He is far from the best DLC from Nrs, but oh boy, when taking the fun factor consideration, he is cooler than every single DLC from mk11.

[@Lego_Shenron]

I like how he has a Move called * title card * Rush

[@mrlee3412]

yeah he is

[@TheRealCSD6]

Omniman is a heavy hitter and fast but he isn't great with combos and so I'd say that gives him the weakness to not be overpowered

[@Lance.Gardenhire]

I like him a lot. I hate zoners, so I do appreciate what he can do LOL. However, there is a friend that I play with practically every day who wants to main him, and I hate mirror matches, so I will not be making him my true main. I'll stick with Smoke until Taceda comes out or if they make Ermac not a zoner.

Small detail that’s worth pointing out: even though you can instantly dodge projectiles and normals in Vitrumite Stance, Omni-Man takes a small bit of unblockable damage every time he dodges. So be careful not to kill yourself with the dodge. I noticed it at 7:43

From what little I know about Omni-Man his MK1 appearance captures him almost perfectly. He feels strong, has some hard hitting attacks - but he is not unstoppable, he is not unbeatable. As seen in the animated series: although he kills the Guardians quickly he sustains some injuries and is somewhat exhausted after the fight. I really think Netherrealm nailed him. Eager to see Homelander and Peacemaker.

[@treyrayner3862]

Yea dude

[@turbosprite2437]

Well, he is not invincible 😅

[@HolyknightVader999]

I suppose if you sic about a half dozen Homelander clones at Nolan, you might be able to kill or capture him.

[@Oldman_Reflexes]

His meter burn stance can be hit with lows or flying kicks or things like that. Oh, and if you do the superman punch when they jump, he actually flies up and hits them.

[@cole3239]

Since Omni man is a counter zoner i feel like he is going to be a counter to Homelander who i feel will be more laser eye focused.

[@LS2258]

I can’t see that happening considering heat vision is just one long consistent beam, you could be right though

[@Kira_Official_]

Maybe it's too early to say, but his damage while not bad, isn't amazing either. Which seemed at first, but then I started to worry that this might eventually happen to every character, where they all get ridiculous damage scaling and do very little damage. I'm all for balance, but I'm not sure if just nerfing damage is the way to go.

[@bamsherrod2843]

Idk, everyones damage just got nerfed and he did get 33% with no bar?

[@YUSSUFXVI]

@@bamsherrod2843but bar doesn’t give you much more

[@dodo_the_dodo_bird4794]

I can get 499 damage with darrius and 3 meters. that's the biggest I could find but he can easily get 350 meterless combos consistently and with kameo he can get anywhere from 380 to 450 damage (especially with darrius).

[@henrydavel1440]

Yeah I agree, his moves look powerful but his damage isn’t too high.

[@Jason-bz6uw]

In what world are you living in to say 33% damage with no bar is too little? You're not supposed to kill a char with 2 combos. That's why NRS is nerfing damage. Baraka could get almost 50% with no bar only assist.which meant if he landed 1 hit twice in a round, u were basically dead. I don't think any combos should be over 35%. The people who play chars that dish out a lot of damage are the only ones complaining.

[@HONYMUSSI]

Also, enhancing his stance makes it faster. Ita 16 frames on start up by default but spending a bar will reduce it to 7 frames on start up. So u can do combos like standing 1, 2 then cancel into enhanced Vultrimite stance into his 4 option which is the punch that launches then u can do any two hit string you want and then cancel into enhanced stance again and quuckly press his first option which is the mid "grab". The rest you can just expirament

[@Dragonwolfworm]

I was expecting Spawn levels of damage from Omni-Man but with some practice, he will be a tough opponent for anyone.

[@marekbabik2791]

like every character ...even sub or nitara can blown your mind if u have mastered them ... even the worst character can be the best in right hands .

Just so you realize EX stance can nottt be grabbed. I never tested it and then it happened in game and I was so stunned that I just stopped reacting haha but then after a test it is definitely the case, as of now I don’t know of a way to stop it once it’s fully activated

[@marekbabik2791]

low or jump in ... easy .. ex stance should used as a counter ... like wake up stance dodge the first attack and then grab for example ... but if u do it too obvious ...people will just hit u with low .

[@Jason-bz6uw]

That overhead from the stance is godly. Several people used it to chip me out because its unpunishable. People are starting to spam that move and its nothing we can do about it. Because right after run away and go right back into the stance. They see u trying to jump hit him out the stance a mile away and punish u again. He gets a full combo off that overhead as well. IT SHOULD NOT BE SAFE ON BLOCK. Especially since they can easily get 38% if it hits.

[@josephtpg7329]

Stance can be dealt with pretty easily. The overhead can be upblocked, and the rest of his stance moves are punishable. The teleport can be punished with good reactions (and I mean an actual punish where he can’t do any actions).

[@jaidora]

There are a few important things worth mentioning about Omni-Man, his stance is a projectile parry but you are not immune to low attacks or some special moves that aren't projectiles. The overhead is technically safe on block but you can easily upblock it for a full punish since it counts as an overhead and removes the pushback. The last thing, and this is a cool one I learned from the channel Shenles, F3 hits twice at close range but it can be safe if you space the aftershock hitbox. Currently I don't think Omni-Man is broken and he has some moves that scales his damage but he outright zeros in on distance and his punish game is very good.

[@EdgelordSativa]

The amount of Quitality I’ve witnessed due to projectiles being rendered so useless is so satisfying 😂

[@GMKGoji01]

Can we appreciate the very fact that NRS referenced the Invincible show? I saw in one video that Omni-Man did the "Think, Mark! Think!" meme! They remembered the meme!!!

[@mrlee3412]

in one johnny says he looks like his dad and omniman says "Your fragile, my son is Invincible" or something along the lines of that.

[@pawewoszczyk5277]

Nice video :-) But don't forget a new technic up-block that makes Tiebraker punishable, less pushback and -11 if I remember correctly

[@N4melessWanderer]

also, meter burning viltrumite stance gives it quicker set-up, so it lets you end a combo with better damage if you are willing to spend a bar for speed

[@goldensparrow5425]

Absolutely loving Omni Man in MK1, so much fun. But although unrelated, I'm hoping we get Erron Black and Nightwolf as either fighters or kameos in a future Kombat Pack, since they can kill you if you fail a Test Your Might.
