How To Play Johnny Cage In Mortal Kombat 1

It’s not easy to play Johnny Cage in Mortal Kombat 1. However, Johnny Cage doesn’t present too much of a learning curve, either. The amount of technology and fighting mechanics that JOhnny Cage’s Kombatant withholds sets him apart from other fighters.

Players must master Johnny Cage’s Hype meter, which increases combo damage, to succeed. Due to Johnny Cage’s wide array of viable attacks, players should brush up on their repertoire as much as possible before venturing into the lower ranks of competitive play. Some important things to remember while playing Johnny Cage are as follows:

• The best time to use Hype is during your longest combinations, so keep an eye on the meter.
• Get people excited by giving Johnny’s different special moves the Hype variation.
• Johnny can put pressure on opposing defences and punish offensive players with ease. Use the proper frame of mind when confronting various characters.
• The forward-dash mechanism is one of Johnny’s strongest allies in battle (along with his Kameo). Keep in mind that Cage’s forward-dash extends a large number of his combos.

• Even after everything has been said and done, Johnny Cage is still a genuine aggressive character with some good techniques to fend off other offensive characters like Reptile. Be wary of punishments, but rush down opponents.
