How To Use

Roles and idea Raiden is the opening tag — his tag-in removal weakens a chosen active enemy by removing a large share of current health and , making follow-up finishes easier; the health removal does not work on bosses. Liu Kang is the primary active attacker and supplies tag-in for the whole team. Smoke is the support: he gives Klassic teammates bonus resistance and turns successful debuff resists into a reflected debuff on the opponent. Opening, rotation and practical play Start by tagging Raiden into the target to remove health and , then tag Liu Kang when the tag becomes available to apply on entry and take control. Keep Liu Kang active to capitalise on his specials (Blazing Training supplies before specials and extra combo synergy) and use Ceremonial Pipe’s damage boost while Liu Kang remains debuff-free. Bring Smoke in when the enemy attempts debuffs or when you need to force a resisted effect to be reflected back at the opponent — with stacked resistance a successful resistance reflects the effect, but resistance and reflection are not guaranteed. Key equipment notes Give Smoke defensive resistance and team support: Rockin' Bowling Stones, Ninja Yoroi and Shintai of Malice increase team unblockable/basic pressure and add strong debuff resistance plus a tag-in . Outfit Raiden for tag pressure and savings with Tempest Lasso, Body of Steel, Tempest Bangle and Matokan Bear Fang. Prioritise Liu Kang’s damage window with Blazing Training, Witch's Ward, Ceremonial Pipe and Blazing Girdle so he stays powerful while Liu Kang remains free of debuffs.
