What's new

Your favorite and least favorite NEW characters for MK X?

Oh, Kotal Kahn is the MVP of this new gen, if not this game. Exotic design, unique moves, awesome voice, good role.

Honorable mention to Ferra/Torr for their freakish, yet lovable dumbassedness...and being a legit big character helps.

Jacqui Briggs, well...if she was a real person, I'd probably be in love. Look at that face. But this is Mortal Kombat, and love is an illusion. She's just too bland.

Favourite: Erron Black
His reveal lived up to the comic book hype. And for a guy with guns, his moveset turned out to be more diverse than I expected.

Least favourite: Kung Jin
The Green Arrow variation is too blatant. Also ugly must run in the Kung family.
Kung Lao and Jin are pretty sexy in my opinion
 

FlareGun

ayy lmao
Favorite Kung Jin and Ferra/Torr

Least favorite Jacqui (I LOVE HER SHES JUST THE ONE I LIKE THE LEAST HAVE MERCY)
 

Konqrr

MK11 Kabal = MK9 Kitana
Why you hate Kung Lao so much? Kitana bodies him in every MK lol
A lot of reasons...
  • His cocky attitude
  • Sense of entitlement (he felt that he should have been Earthrealm's champion instead of Liu Kang)
  • Gameplay related:
    • That fucking teleport which seems to be returning in full force in MKX
    • Bird Lao
    • Dive Kick
    • 6-frame Spin
    • yolo
    • Yolo
    • YOlo
    • YOLo
    • YOLO
    • yOlO!!
I hate him............................. so... much...

I agree you can play pretty crazy and yolo in MK9 with Kung Lao and possibly do well, but I don't think it's the same for MKX. His spin doesn't have priority over everything and can easily get bodied. The scrubs will be weeded out :p

Most favorite: Cassie
Least favorite: none- always open to new characters breeding freshness in a franchise- I root for them all to be viable and continuing the excellence of the regular roster. (Even though I may only play Cassie regularly)

Before you jump down my throat with things like "Dude, the game has been out for less than a week." and "Nobody is really the worst, they all have something good about them", let me say this, I know. The point of this thread is not to try to rank some characters higher than others. It is not to ask for buffs on characters that we feel are slightly weaker than others. The point of this thread IS to generate discussion and to learn about characters that we may not have played yet. Doing so will help people in matchups that they might not know much about, or will get people thinking about some apparent flaws in characters as they are today, so we can, as a community try to find ways to overcome them. So please, don't respond with things like "lol, who knows?" or with just a characters name, state why you think they are so weak. Anyway, I'll start.

Kitana in my opinion, is the weakest character in MKX. That may be because I've played her almost exclusively since release, so I know more about her flaws then any other character. Kitana lacks any mixups. She has 1 overhead attack, b2, that has a 23 frame startup and leads to a hard knockdown so you can't get any real damage off of it if you manage to hit it. On top of this she has only a a few quick pokes to punish up close that often are out of range due to pushback, so it is hard to punish up close with her. She also has no wakeup options. her df3 can be armored, but is so negative on block that it is too unsafe to do.

People, think about the fact that Netherrealm had to add a new special move to Ronin variation Takeda, in the newest patch.
Set up a trap, and then have to meterburn the trap to get a combo for low 30%. It was pathetic, but damn funny.
He's not even canon.

Reptile for me, not because he actually is the worst but because they've made him nowhere near his MK9 version, he looks slow & that elbow dash is pathetic compared to MK9's. I was looking forward to maiming him & hitting the lab for hours with him but I've ignored him altogether. I'll stick to Scorpion for now.

For the actual worst character, I've no idea, I've only played against a few & online its hard to tell who's good or bad with all the lag.

Sonya. I don't see why she is good in Mk X. Reason?
I don't know if your with me here, but the reason is because she uses more gadgets then anything here.
And she seems out of place in his game. X-Ray, meh.
The gadgets are doing all of the work and why do we have her kid if she is also in the game?
Both her fatalities are meh, (gadgets doing all the work for her lazy ass) so she is the less wanted character on my book.
