The Ultimate Mortal Kombat 3 Scorpion Moves Guide: Unlocking the Master of Blazes' Fatalities and Fatality Combos

For fans of the classic fighting game series, there's no greater joy than mastering the iconic moveset of their favorite fighter – especially when that fighter is none other than the legendary Scorpion. As one half of the most fearsome brotherly duo in Mortal Kombat history (the other being Sub-Zero), Scorpion has cemented his place as a symbol of strength, speed, and raw, unbridled aggression on the Mortal Kombat stage.

In this comprehensive guide to unlocking all of Scorpion's devastating moves in Ultimate Mortality 3, we'll take you through every step required to unleash hell upon your opponents with ease. From basic attacks to special moves and beyond, by the time you're done reading this article, you'll be well on your way to becoming an unstoppable force within any Mortal Kombat tournament.

Basic Attacks

Before diving headfirst into Scorpion's more advanced move set, it's essential to understand his fundamental attack patterns. As with most fighters in Ultimate Mortality 3, Scorbion (as we affectionately refer to him) relies on a combination of basic punches and kicks to wear down his opponents.

* Forward Punch: Simply press the left or right arrow buttons forward while holding the standard punch button (B-button on PlayStation controllers). This will perform an unblockable jab that can be canceled into more complex combos.

* Rear Kick:

* Pressing back with either analog stick and pressing kick (A-button on PS1/PS2 pads) will execute a basic roundhouse kick. This move has decent range but lacks any significant damage output compared to other kicks in Scorpion's arsenal.

Special Moves

Now that we've covered the basics, let's dive into some of the more advanced moves available exclusively through button combinations:

* Fireball: Hold Down + Forward on your control stick for about 2 seconds before releasing a burst of flames straight ahead. This move can be canceled out after landing with another attack.

Fatalities and Fatality Combos

No Mortal Kombat fighter would be complete without their signature fatality moves – the finishing blows that end an opponent's life in spectacular fashion!

To perform these gruesome fatalities, you'll need to first meter up by performing combos or taking damage. Once fully charged (indicated by a small bar above your health gauge filling up), press down + forward on the control stick while pressing any button simultaneously with one of the following inputs:

* Scorpion's Spear: Press Down + Forward twice, then hold left on the analog stick until you hear 'Spear!' before releasing. As soon as this animation finishes, inputting a high kick will impale your opponent through their chest cavity.

By mastering these basic moves and special attacks in conjunction with well-timed fatality inputs, players can easily become nearly untouchable opponents within any match-up they choose to face off against!
