I just got MK the other day and was wondering if anyone could point me in the direction of some basic combo guides (bonus if they are easy for a beginner to understand!) or websites that are good resources when learning about the game? I'm new to playing fighting games online, so the simpler the better :)

Thanks in advance!

I never looked at this much myself but I hope it helps.

I've always found that, for fighting games at least, simple guides and walkthroughs won't help as much as good, old-fashioned elbow grease. 

Well I would definitely practice the simple combos they have on the menu and then start combining, I find youtube to very helpful, cause not only will they show the input but you can actually see it, so you can try and match what they're doing as far as timing and so fourth lol
