This guide preserves the original MK Gold move inputs as provided. Inputs use the original arcade/controller notation (e.g. Forward, Back, High Punch, Down, Forward, Low Punch, etc.). Distances such as close, sweep, past sweep, and outside sweep reflect the range required in-game to execute certain finishers.
Some characters (e.g., Noob Saibot) historically have differences between versions and ports — some fatalities or inputs may be undocumented or behave differently depending on region/port.
