                        MORTAL KOMBAT II MOVES



Notes:
------

Buttons and moves  - HOLD first button in parentheses until the
                     closing parentheses and do everything inside
                     while holding the button

Super Uppercut     - Can only be done in The Pit and the Spike
                     Room. Stand close.

Friendships        - Can only be done if you DON'T use any PUNCH button
                     on the Fatality round, the round you get a second
                     win on.  That also means if you are Shang Tsung, you
                     can't do certain people's Friendships because you
                     use punch to morph into them.

Bability           - Can only be done if you DON'T use HIGH PUNCH on the
                     Fatality round.  You can do a Friendship after a
                     Bability or do multiple Babilities.  If you do three
                     Babilities in a row, you will see an explosion of
                     three babies and one will be Kung Lao.  Stand at least
                     a couple steps away.

Question Mark      - In order to fight Jade, who is the question
                     mark character, you must defeat the opponent right
                     before the question mark with LOW KICK only and no
                     BLOCK.

               HINT: Use sweeps as much as possible and jump
                     kicks only when you are on the other side of
                     the screen and they are walking towards you.
