Mortal Kombat: 8 Best Brutalities, Ranked
Everyone knows about the Mortal Kombat Fatalities, but the Brutalities are just as brutal and even harder to do right.
Everyone knows that Mortal Kombat is known for its bloody and violent Fatalities.The brutalities, on the other hand, are done in a very different way, but they still make the opponent look bad. Even though Brutalities have only been in a few games, they have been making a comeback in the most recent ones. This makes sense, since combos have become a bigger part of games over time.
Unlike a Fatality, which can be used at the end of a fight, a Brutality can only be used when a specific move is used to reduce the opponent’s health to zero. Most of the time, players will also need to meet a certain requirement for Brutality to work. They’re hard to pull off, so only people who are sure of themselves and have done it before try them. But that just makes it more rewarding when Brutalities kill the enemy.
What Would Mileena Do?
Mileena is often shown to be one of the most cruel and bloodthirsty characters in the series. But in this brutal Brutality, Jade takes a lesson from her book. In it, she uses her Pole Vault to throw herself onto the opponent’s shoulders, and then she keeps stabbing them in the head so they can’t get back up.
For the finisher to work, players will need to quickly press both punch buttons. This makes Jade try to stay on her opponent as long as possible, after which she will jump off and clean her dagger.
Alien Baby
When it was reported that the Alien from the Ridley Scott movie series would be available as DLC, it was a welcome addition to the roster of Mortal Kombat X. This unique Brutality shows how NetherRealm made the character seem just as dangerous and scary as it did on the big screen.
After choosing the Konjurer version of the Alien, players will have to connect at least one Facehugger to the enemy in the first round. Facehugging must also be the last hit of the match. As a tribute to the famous scene from the first movie, the camera will zoom in on the enemy being held down by the Facehugger just before a baby alien pops its head out of their stomach.
Bad Buzz
As part of a Fatality, Kung Lao often uses his razor-sharp hat to kill an opponent. He also uses it in a few of his Brutalities. The Bad Buzz ending is the most well-known and hardest to pull off.
This Brutality is like Kung Lao’s forward throw, but it’s longer. He puts his hat behind the opponent to cut through their back while he hits them with his hands. This time, he also jumps behind the opponent to pull them into the hat, which cuts them in half and ends the match. This Brutality is hard to pull off because the player can’t lose a single round during the whole match. It’s a way to make your opponent feel completely humiliated if you hit them with it.
Spin Me Right Around
In the world of Mortal Kombat, Kabal has always been feared because of his sharp tongue and mysteriousness. His style of fighting is to move faster than anyone else and then tear his enemies apart with his hookblades. This is clear in this Mortal Kombat 11 Brutality video.
When Kabal uses his special skill, “Nomad Dash,” the enemy will be turned around for a few seconds. Normally, a combo starter would come next, but in this Brutality, Kabal will start to celebrate as the enemy spins around until they are a lifeless body. Players can only use Spin Me Right Around if they have already done at least three Nomad Dashes. This isn’t much of a problem, though, since this is a move that Kabal players always use.
Ragdoll
Ragdoll Brutality by Jax is one of the hardest ways to end a fight in Mortal Kombat X. When Jax throws an opponent over his head, the player must press certain buttons. Since the hits get faster as Brutality goes on, players only have a small window of time to do it.
As Jax throws his opponent to the ground on each side of the stage, the health bars and HUD go away. Only a pile of bones is left, which shows how dangerous those metal arms are. This Brutality doesn’t have any extra requirements, but it’s still hard to do. Because you have to press the buttons in just the right way.
Eye Popping
In the Mortal Kombat world, it’s always funny to see the cocky and rude Johnny Cage fight gods. By using this Brutality, he can make them look like fools by giving them a low blow that makes their eyes pop out.
One of Jonny’s most effective moves is the Nut Punch. Which can make enemies hesitant to get close to the movie star. To get this improved form of the move, players will have to use Nut Punch at least four times during a match. This can still be done with any of Jonny’s versions, which is good news. It is one of the easier Brutalities in Mortal Kombat X. But it is also one of the most fun to use.
Let It Grow, Let It Grow
Mileena is one of the characters in the Mortal Kombat series who could be called the most deadly. This Brutality gives the mutant hybrid a bit of wit and style that players don’t often see. After Mileena uses an amplified version of the Staybscoth ability, if the player presses down three times for the final hit, Mileena will keep cutting the enemy’s head before putting a seed in their body.
A tiny blue flower grows from the enemy’s head after a few seconds. This Brutality looks a lot more interesting than most of the others, which could mean that this character has a soft side that many people don’t know about.
Tenderizer
Even though Leatherface can pull out a chainsaw at any time. His hammer is one of the most dangerous tools he has in Mortal Kombat X. In 8 Ball Pool, he uses this tool to hit his opponent. This move is known for being long because Leatherface beats the opponent to the ground multiple times. This shows how dangerous this character is in his original source material.
This Brutality doesn’t have to be too bloody to show how bad it hurts. Even though it’s rarely done because it’s so hard, it’s a great way to bring a violent character from outside the games into the Mortal Kombat world and show that they can compete with the other fighters.
