Easier than street fighter 6?

[Aguado]

I don't have much time to play, so is it easier to be at a decent level?

Mortal kombat has always been easier than Street fighters in my opinion. Easy to learn i mean, hard to master. But street fighters is hard to learn and hard to master.

Street Fighter 6 has Modern controls and Classic controls.

Classic scheme is just the controls of old but Modern turns the game into a quick action pick up and play.

With Modern you don't need to worry about ♥♥♥♥♥♥ half-circle inputs to pull off a move since they're mapped to a single button and it even offers combo "assists" which grant the Modern player the ability to pull supers at the end of a combo, with single inputs i.e one button.

Doubtful MK1 has any of that. You'll still need to input the same crappy commands i.e back, forward and low punch for Scorpion's spear, for example, react like the ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ Flash to pull a fatality and suffer through the same ♥♥♥♥♥♥ conditions to pull off a brutality. Boring.

SF6 is way easier, just hold down-back and your safe from 90% of everything.

This game isn't out yet so we don't really know, but for Mortal Kombat in general, I'd say probably yes, but not for the reasons you may think. The actual game mechanics aren't what make a fighting game easy or hard unless you're already playing at the highest level. Fighting games feel hard when you're forced to play against people way better than you which is more likely to be the case the older or more niche the game is. Mortal Kombat games tend to have a huge number of active players and a higher percentage of them are casual compared to other fighting games. So, mechanics aside (which vary greatly from game to game,) MK1 is going to be the easiest feeling fighting game for at least its first month based on who will be playing it.

Forgot to mention that my question was compared to classic controls on street fighter. Thanks for all the replies so far though.

why would you need a game to be easier than street fighter? why not just play strive? or just watch gameplay on youtube?
