  Expect a lot more from this series. Although they will individually take longer to make than our usual content, Mortal Kombat will always have a special place in our hearts as content creators. Taking you through the history of the scene and games alongside it is something we&apos;ve always wanted to do. And going into 2018, Mortal Kombat content will become more regular in the form of the MK Meta. <br><br>Huge thanks to Shock for helping me iron out the mammoth script that I had to write for this episode. You can follow him on Twitter over at: <a href="https://twitter.com/UMKShock">https://twitter.com/UMKShock</a><br><br>He also took part in a really interesting interview lining the absolute history of the games competitive community: <a href="http://iplaywinner.com/news/2011/6/21/ipw-x-tym-feature-history-of-the-mortal-kombat-scene-by-shoc.html">http://iplaywinner.com/news/2011/6/21/ipw-x-tym-feature-history-of-the-mortal-kombat-scene-by-shoc.html</a><br><br>Hope you guys enjoy this as much as I enjoyed making it. &lt;3

  Every time I see Jax&apos;s stomp fatality, I am reminded of a joke I read on a website in the mid 90s, &quot;Yo mama so fat, when Jax tried to stomp fatality her he twisted his ankle!&quot;

  We didn&apos;t have internet or even manual with characters moves in 90th Russia because everybody had pirate version of game. So we had to discover combos ourself and writing them in notebook. Every kid had cheap standart school green notebook reserved fo MK combos. Still remember first time I thought &quot;could next move in in this cool Liu Kang combo be block button??&quot;...

  I can still remember the smell of the arcade... This was top tier arcade fighting back in its day.

  Tournament Edition was the greatest thing to happen to UMK3, and truly is the breath of fresh air this game needed for YEARS.

  I had no idea the older MK games even had a meta. That is incredibly insightful. Thanks so much for sharing this with us.

  Every Friday night my family would go out to Me&amp;Ed&apos;s for dinner. &nbsp;I remember being more excited to play this game than actually sit down to enjoy pizza.

  I already wish this type of video was being made for every game since SF2, this is absolutely brilliant content and I can&apos;t thank you enough for making it!

  I had the nastiest combos with Stryker in the MK3 styled games. His launch combo combined with his gun made for some easy damaging combos!

  I&apos;ll never be good enough at a fighting game to need any of this minutia but I find it incredibly interesting. Thanks for creating the video

  Liu Kang was the one that I mastered, but Shang Tsung, Sheeva, Jax and Nightwolf had really cool combos

  If Hara Kiri&apos;s return in MK11 and Cyrax is in, I&apos;d love to see his self-destruct fatality as his Hara Kiri for a throwback
