Mortal Kombat 11 Krushing Blows | Full list, requirements, and effects

Out of all the new mechanics, the Mortal Kombat 11 Krushing Blows are probably the most useful and flashy. Not only do they add more depth to the core kombat, but they also look great too. But they aren’t as simple as they appear because they take careful planning to figure out how each Krushing Blow works. Here’s a list of every MK11 Krushing Blow, how to perform them, and what each of them does. We will be adding more as we come across them (we only mostly have the tournament variations now) but just search for what fighter you want to see. Here’s a list on how to do and unlock all of the fatalties.

Mortal Kombat 11 Krushing Blows | The basic controls

Each entry on the MK11 Krushing Blow list follows some rules for inputs as they go as follows:

• 1 is front punch (Square on PS4, X on Xbox One, and Y on Switch)
• 2 is back punch (Triangle on PS4, Y on Xbox One, and X on Switch)
• 3 is front kick (X on PS4, A on Xbox One, and B on Switch)
• 4 is back kick (O on PS4, B on Xbox One, and A on Switch)
• Throw is by default on the top left shoulder button (L1 on PS4, LB on Xbox One, L on Switch) or 1 and 3 together
• Forward throws are executed with the throw (or 1 and 3) button and pressing forward on the D-pad/analog stick
• Back throws are executed by just pressing the throw button (or 1 and 3)

General Mortal Kombat 11 Krushing Blows

Everyone in the game has the uppercut Krushing Blow.

• Input: Uppercut (down 2)
• How to trigger it: Triggers if it is punishing a high attack or if it is kounter.
• What it does: Does more damage and launches opponent.

Almost everyone has a throw Krushing Blow. Some have Krushing Blows attached to their forward throw, back throw, neither, or both. These are usually activated when the opponent presses the wrong button to escape the grab twice in one match. This is signified by the “Escape Failed” that pops up if you press the wrong escape button (forward throw escape is 2 or 4, backwards throw escape is 1 or 3).

For example, if a character has a Krushing Blow for a forward throw and you tech wrongly try to tech a back throw, it won’t count as one mess up against your forward throw Krushing Blow. Characters with both a forward and backwards Krushing Blow can use both in a match but you have to fail each twice. A failed backwards throw tech does not count toward a forwards throw Krushing Blow and vice versa.
