Here are 4 of the absolute best combos in Mortal Kombat 11, all for different reasons

Mortal Kombat 11 recently underwent a fairly massive change in that developers decided to open up the floodgates and allow players to mix and match character abilities instead of being restricted to preset load outs. This means all new potential across the board, and today we're looking at some of the most efficient, devastating, and all around useful combos now possible in routine combat.

To deem a particular combo or sequence "the best" is almost always going to be subjective, but in his latest video True Under Dawg Gaming highlights four particular combinations that appear to be the best in four significant categories: consistency (no Krushing or Fatal Blows required), anti-breakaway, unbreakable, and highest damaging corner combo.

We won't spoil too much here, but will get into just one of these to give you a taste of what's to come. In the "unbreakable" category we find that Sindel can pull off a beat down that opponents simply have to hold even if they have access to their breakaway mechanic.

Players in MK11 have the opportunity to cause their character to fall out of combos early by spending a hefty amount of their meter. This is only possible, however, when their avatar is airborne and being juggled by the opposition. As such, combos that never take the victim to the air are especially effective, and Sindel may currently be the queen of these.

This sequence is regarded by some as the most difficult in the game, but grants upwards of 496 guaranteed damage if Sindel uses both her Krushing and Fatal Blows. She doesn't have to resort to these super moves, however, as variations of the combo exist without them.

Give True Under Dawg's video a watch below and then head into the comments to let us know if you agree with his thoughts here. Are there characters that have more effective sequences in these categories?
