Combo Breaker 2024 Mortal Kombat 1 results
As MK1 Combo Breaker 2024 is over, let’s take a look at the results: top players and the characters/kameos they used in the top 8.
Top 8 recap
Ninjakilla started the top 8 part with a confident victory over Bandinoz. Switching from Rain to the Cage family did not help Bandinoz, and the player fell to losers.
In the parallel brackets, Nicolas had the same impressive win vs TheMightyUnjust. Interestingly enough, it was the winner here who played Johnny Cage — but with Khameleon as a kameo fighter. TheMightyUnjust started with the Peacemaker/Kano (like Ninjakilla), and only in the final game did he attempt to take a different kameo, Khameleon.
It’s always interesting to witness the newest characters being played at top-level fighting esports tournaments. KillerXinok gave us this opportunity, as the player took the newest kameo, Mavado, to the match vs VideoGamezYo. It did not help, though. KillerXinok was eliminated.
Here is everything you need to know about Mavado!

SonicFox entered the MK1 top 8 at Combo Breaker 2024 through the losers brackets — in the top 24 (winners quarter-final), they lost a very close match vs TheMightyUnjust. In the final part, things went generally better for SonicFox. They defeated three opponents on the way to the losers final with 3:1 (including TheMightyUnjust). In the match vs Bandinoz, SonicFox even switched toErmac, another new addition to the MK1 roster. Was it a counterpick against Rain? And they also used Mavado as a kameo in the losers semi-final against Peacemaker/Kano of TheMightyUnjust — and then the opponent mirrored the newest kameo fighter.
Finals
The losers final was tough and close. Ninjakilla fell to losers after the winners final vs Nicolas. He was in a pretty good position after the first two games, reaching the match-point situation. But then, Nicolas won three games in a row. In the match vs SonicFox, Ninjakilla_212 also was close to finishing and also couldn’t do that — after SonicFox switched to Sindel/Sub-Zero.
Grand Final
In the MK1 grand final at Combo Breaker 2024, Nicolas played his main character/kameo pair, Johnny Cage/Khameleon. SonicFox started and finished with Sindel/Kung Lao, having Nitara/Khameleon for a couple of games. Such moves helped a bit, but Nicolas did not allow SonicFox to gain too big of an advantage. The fight reached the decisive round. Nicolas found nice openings and nicely blocked Sindel’s Fatal Blow — to punish and win.Nicolas is the Mortal Kombat 1 Champion at Combo Breaker 2024. Congratulations!
