Shari Lynn Kramer / 25 Dec 2023
Playing Mortal Kombat 1 is always a thrilling experience, especially when it comes to showcasing your prowess with fatalities. Seasonal fatalities provide a unique twist to the classic finishing moves, and nothing quite captures the frosty feeling of winter like the Winter Finisher. This guide will walk you through the chilling steps required to execute this move. So get ready to add some cold-hearted flair to your combat skills!
Step 1: Equip the Winter Finisher
Before you can bring a frosty demise to your adversaries, you must first equip your character with the Winter Finisher. Navigate to the Kustomize menu from the main menu of your game, and follow these steps:
- Choose 'Finishers' from your fighter's customization options.
- Scroll through the list of available seasonal finishers.
- Select the Winter Finisher. On PlayStation, press 'X'; on Xbox, press 'A'; and on Switch, press 'B' to equip it.
With your fatality now set, you're one step closer to showcasing this holiday horror show.
Step 2: Secure Your Victory
Performing a fatality requires not just knowledge but also the skill to defeat your opponent in combat. Make use of your character's specific moves and combos to reduce your opponent's health to the critical point where "Finish Him/Her!" appears on the screen, signaling the opportunity for a fatality. Remember, this is a dance of death; timing and precision are everything.
Step 3: Find the Right Range
Positioning is key for pulling off fatalities, and the Winter Finisher is no exception. For this particular move, you need to stand at close range to your opponent. You will need to be close enough that your character can reach out and touch the opponent. Too far or too close, and you might miss your chance to dazzle with this deadly move.
Step 4: Perform the Fatal Sequence
Now comes the moment of truth. Here’s the sequence you need to execute for the Winter Finisher:
- Hold down the block button – R2 for PlayStation, RT for Xbox, and ZR for Switch.
- While holding the block, quickly press the forward directional button twice.
If input correctly, your character will unleash a spectacle of seasonal ferocity, featuring a candy cane and a sleigh ride that your opponent will never forget—or recover from.
Visualize the Fatality
Should you need a visual guide to understand the move better, plenty of video tutorials are available online. These can help reinforce the sequence by allowing you to see the exact timing and pace required to perform the Winter Finisher successfully. Watching a fatality in action is always a great way to grasp the intricacies of the procedure.
The Joy of Mastery
Finally, practice makes perfect. Mastering fatalities in Mortal Kombat 1 requires patience and repetition. Don't be discouraged if you don't get it on the first try; even seasoned players can find themselves needing several attempts to execute a fatality. The satisfaction of mastering this chilling move will be well worth the effort – giving you bragging rights and leaving your opponents frozen in awe!
Now you're ready to spread some wintry fear in the arena of Mortal Kombat. Remember, with great power comes the great responsibility to entertain the crowds. So go forth and deliver some icy punishment with style this winter season!
