Omni-Man brought an incredible amount of raw power and brutal comic book violence to Mortal Kombat 1 upon his release. Players looking to finish off their opponents in style can execute his secondary finisher, titled "Like Putty". This horrific move showcases the Viltrumite's terrifying strength as he crushes his opponent's head with his bare hands.
Button Inputs for Like Putty across Platforms
Executing Omni-Man's second Fatality requires precise positioning at a medium distance from your target. On PlayStation 5, players must quickly enter Down, Forward, Back, Square to initiate the sequence. Xbox Series X|S users need to input Down, Forward, Back, X while maintaining medium spacing.
Nintendo Switch owners can execute the finisher by pressing Down, Forward, Back, Y at the proper distance. PC players using default keyboard or controller layouts should press the corresponding directional keys along with the Front Punch button. Precision is key, so make sure you do not accidentally jump while pressing the sequence.
How to Unlock the Finisher in Move Lists
When you first acquire Omni-Man, his second Fatality will appear locked inside the character's move list. To permanently reveal the input instructions in your in-game menu, you must level up Omni-Man's character mastery. Playing online matches, completing Invasions nodes, and finishing arcade towers all earn experience toward his progression ranks.
However, Mortal Kombat 1 allows players to perform locked Fatalities immediately without officially unlocking them first. As long as you stand at mid-range and enter the correct button sequence, the finisher will trigger successfully. This hidden mechanic lets dedicated players bypass the mastery grind right away.
Positioning Tips and Execution Mechanics
Distance management is essential when attempting to land "Like Putty" at the end of a match. Mid-range distance generally equals roughly two to three character steps away from your defeated opponent. If you stand too close, the game may misinterpret your directional inputs as regular attacks or special moves.
Using the fatality training mode is a great way to practice timing without any match pressure. The practice room provides visual indicators that show the exact boundary lines for close, mid, and far ranges. Once you master the spacing, executing Omni-Man's gruesome second Fatality will become second nature in competitive play.
