Didnt confirm if that was true

thick rain
#

im sure they are playable

night vine
#

Khameleon standing behind the playable character in the trailer like a kameo would

thick rain
#

but shes dlc

#

makes no sense if shes a story mode kameo

night vine
#

70% shes a kameo that remains on the story then becomes playevle as dlc

dawn sierra
#

Eh, not really

night vine
#

we ve had that before 😭😭

dawn sierra
#

Although it might get into the WE ARE PAYING TO UNLOCK CONTENT ON DISK stuff

#

But tanya was in X story mode

night vine
#

Has nrs ever gave a fuck

tribal axle
#

This kameo mechanic makes speculation arguments so much more complicated

night vine
#

They will milk us dry

dawn sierra
#

I would milk kano

night vine
#

Gross he smells

dawn sierra
tribal axle
#

Would you milk Barakano?

dawn sierra
#

I can wash him with beer or whatever

thick rain
sour lily
#

Wash him with ham juice

dawn sierra
sour lily
thick rain
#

close

tribal axle
#

Barakano has no beard

thick rain
#

i love movie Kano

#

so glad hes back for the sequel

tribal axle
thick rain
#

i adore his new design

dawn sierra
#

Stache works

thick rain
#

i love how it looks like mk2 baraka

tribal axle
#

Karl Urban was so heavily requested to be Kano in the movies, they just had to bring him in… for Johnny Cage

night vine
#

New baraka is amazinf

#

I only sorta dislike raiden and kung laos new designs because they look sorta npc-ish

tribal axle
#

Kung Lao is definitely unimpressive

brittle hazel
#

Are you guys okay with them changing Motaro into a Satyr again if it means being able to play as him.

I mean, it would make sense now in the story.

tribal axle
#

At least Raiden is different

toxic delta
#

Kung Lao is already perfection

tribal axle
#

No, best stay away from 2 legged Motaro

night vine
#

I don’t particularly care about motaro beyond being a centaur so idk

toxic delta
#

He singlehandedly fought Sub-zero and Scorpion in the tea house, while he's just a farmer boy

tribal axle
#

Motaro already leaked as 4 legged. He can also rip arms with so little effort

night vine
#

I think hes a kameo

brittle hazel
#

Motaro deserved both of his hind legs. Guy literally had an immunity to projectiles despite having a teleport.

tribal axle
#

Yeah he’s def kameo

tribal axle
#

Wasnt supposed to be fair

brittle hazel
#

Still, I really like Satyr Motaro. I think he looks kinda nice. Hope he could be DLC.

tribal axle
#

@toxic delta he does have a skin without the hat

#

Mkda style

#

Wonder how thats going to work out

#

Cus this time the hat isnt even on his back

brittle hazel

#

LMAO. Tanya is more trending than Li Mei and Mileena on Twitter

tribal axle
#

Wonder why

#

Surely only positive reactions

grizzled fern
#

Twitter being twitter

dawn sierra
#

Smells like racism to me šŸŽ¶

#

Although tbh

#

Tanya probably includes the non MK Tanyas

#

While Li Mei is probably more specific

toxic delta
#

What other Tanyas are there lol

thick rain
#

A lot of racist and a lot people calling people racist when they aren't

#

Its a never ending battle

toxic delta
#

Tbh this is your regular gamingcirclejerk moment. Aka incels being whiny bitch babies

thick rain
#

Yep

toxic delta
#

It's a double whammy of racism and sexism

thick rain
#

I think the design is fine and she looks great

#

But she doesn't look or feel like Tanya to me

#

Which I find to be a valid complaint

grizzled fern
#

fair

#

but it is indeed a new era

#

i mean

#

my boys scorp and sub have man buns lol

#

which they look fire

thick rain
#

I think characters should still have their identity

#

Tanya has always been Egyptian inspired

#

So changing that I find to be a weird choice

#

Scorpion and Sub Zero still look and feel like Scorpion and Sub Zero

grizzled fern
toxic delta
#

My boy Kuai Liang changed from blue outfit to yellow lol

thick rain
#

I'm by no means a Tanya fan so if her fans are happy then it's all good

#

But it's obvious that they are not

grizzled fern
#

i like it though

#

things are fresh in this MK

toxic delta
thick rain
#

My complaint is she doesn't feel like Tanya

#

I don't even think she looks ugly so idk why people are bitching there

#

Like I don't think Kitana in mk11 was that attractive but I'm not gonna complain over it

tribal axle
#

I like this Tanya

#

Sure, couldve been an entire new character with an OG Tanya also in the game

dawn sierra
tribal axle
#

Theres no way even 1% of those tweets are about his sister šŸ’€

dawn sierra
#

No... But Tanya was a name before MK lol

tribal axle
#

Isnt that 43.9k number referring to todays tweets?

#

Not sure how twitter works but Id assume thats it

#

Definitely mk1 tanya outrage

dawn sierra
#

Tanya outrage probably got it to show up on TTs

#

But search Tanya in twitter and you'll see most aren't MK related at all

#

Unlike Li Mei

thick rain
#

i really hope that the person Havik ends up to be isnt something dumb

#

really dont want him to be Jerrod like the fan rumor

oak dawn
#

I hope so as well. IMO the MK1 roster has too many superpowereds and Outworlders.

#

Lemme see some bread and butter humans like Sonya with no powers or magic who can run hands with the likes of gods because they’re just that badass

#

People expressed their disdain for how MKX and 11 had ā€˜too much focus on the Special Forces’ but I liked it a lot. Seeing characters like Johnny, Cassie, Sonya, Jax, etc who are just otherwise normal people being completely capable of flooring supers like Kabal, Kotal Kahn, Kitana, Noob Saibot and so on was enjoyable in my opinion. I would prefer that over every other person having some super power and pretty much making Mortal Kombat into an R-Rated Marvel superhero game

#

Even with Injustice. At least like 30% of the roster is normal people who can square up with Amazonian and Kryptonians. Even if they are assisted with a ā€œsuper pillā€ it’s better than just literally everyone being super powered.

narrow jungle
#

That’s not what it is though? Also Johnny has powers, Sonya has powers, she just didn’t have them in 11

oak dawn
#

I would argue that MK1 Johnny just has ā€˜movie SFX’ and not any actual ā€œshadowā€ stuff floating around him. Like it’s added in post

#

Like he’s currently in one of his action movies fighting someone and the shadow effects we see are special effects put in by the editors to make his character look cool. Know what I mean?

#

Also Johnny for the most part doesn’t exhibit powers throughout MK9X11 outside of gameplay. Only once, against Shinnok so far as I know

#

I know Sonya has powers in earlier games but even without them she’s a hell of a fighter.

night vine
#

Which is probably the intention

lime mica
#

Really curious who the mystery two are

night vine
#

but im having a short feeling sareena might get the bump from kameo to playable its a gut feeling

#

most likely wishfull thinking

lament thorn
#

worst case scenario are kano and sonya yeah

#

but also the most probable

night vine
#

the most reliable roster had quan chi and ermac and the other reliable leaker was confused with them being dlc

#

so i think sonya, kano are more likely

#

sareena and jade out of their asses or a last minute effort not as likely but the ones im rooting for

lament thorn
#

they based the roster on playable characters trough story mode right?

#

so, that potentially means that quan chi and ermac have at least a fight in the story

night vine
#

yeah exactly

lament thorn
#

but the leaker didn't think they could be npc's

night vine
#

i think khameleon will be a story only kameo too

#

no they were surprised

lament thorn
#

like they did with mkx tanya, and rain, though rain never got into the game lol

#

the question is, has sonya been playabe in the story at least once?

#

other than kameo, or fought against? if so, they could literally confirm it

night vine
#

no idea šŸ¤·ā€ā™‚ļø

lament thorn
#

i think it's unlikely they reveal sonya and kano as playable after showing their kameos, it's rare

night vine
#

the R000r fella is very quiet

#

reveals just enough and mostly just comfirms or denies things

lament thorn
#

it would be a bummer

lime mica
night vine
#

best scenario would be sareena gets bumped from kameo to playable with sonya

#

but im holding on to sonya and kano playable unfortunatly so i dont get too disapointed

night vine
#

the roster is already amazing so i need to be realisitc

#

im just feeling that maybe sareena has a chance idk 😭

lament thorn
lament thorn
lime mica
#

Well if I had to guess it'd be who I want. Which is Sareena. If it isn't her, I have no idea.

#

Onaga, perhaps?

night vine
#

id want sareena and jade

#

we need more women severely but yeah

#

best and somewhat possible case scenario: sonya and sareena

#

most likely scenario: kano sonya

lament thorn
#

i see jade a valid option

lime mica
#

Yeah could very well be her

lament thorn
#

worst case scenario is that they cut 2 characters

#

so we only have 23

lime mica
#

That's super unlikely

lament thorn
#

cuz maybe quan chi and ermac were really going to be base roster

#

but decided to put them on dlc cuz they ran out of time? maybe? worst case scenario

#

if that's the case that is the cheapest move lol

night vine
#

but i think jade is being set up to be mileena 2.0

#

aka make people go insane for her to cash in on her dlc

#

i think they were 100 % intending on not have mileena at all in 11 but the fan backlash and requests overwhelmed and we KNOW they translated to sales

#

so i think they are doing the same to jade

#

you know what they say people want what they cant have

lament thorn
#

jade fandom is not like mileena's though

#

mileena fandom crazy asf

night vine
#

mileenas fanbase wasnt like that UNTIl she missed 11 😭

lament thorn
#

but yeah, characters have to take a seat sometimes, i can see her as DLC though

night vine
#

ed boon is throwing fire at the jade stans that are already becoming as crazy

#

and hell rip the benefits

#

sorta briliant though

lament thorn
#

even with 23 characters this roster is insane in my opinion

#

so they might as well said "screw it, put 2 on the dlc"

night vine
#

i think ,,,

#

i think they shouldnt have swaped whoever was dlc for ermac and quan chi

#

especcially if those two are available on t he stoy mode as npcs

lament thorn
#

if it was sonya and kano

#

it would have been a bummer of a dlc

night vine
#

yeah no one would have bought that shit 😭

lament thorn
#

ermac was heavily requested though

#

maybe his presence in story mode was little

night vine
#

yeah ermac having a full blown new design to simply die the crypt only to be dlc AND have a completly divergent aesthetic direction from said mk11 concept

lament thorn
#

so they end up deciding to put him as dlc in the end

night vine
#

is sorta rotten imo

#

wich is why i fully belive it when it comes to dlc nrs is rotten at times

lament thorn
#

same with reptile

night vine
#

also we have 1 kombat kast

#

😭

lament thorn
#

yeah lol, just 1 in a month

night vine
#

at this time in mk11“s promo cycle we had several kombat kasts, individual trailers for characthers followed by kombat kasts

#

we are missing gameplay for the original gameplay reveal characthers like mileena, kunglao and raiden

lament thorn
#

i expect just 1 announcement for august

night vine
#

now we are missing details on rain, smoke, barak, tanya and limei 😭

#

they need to speed this up

#

the game is OUT in seven weeks!!

#

at this rate we would need double kombat kasts for some weeks

lament thorn
#

8 weeks and 1 day exactly

lament thorn
#

i think they will just break down 3-4 characters in a kombat kast

#

not gonna lie, i like they focused trailers of various characters revealed

#

I expect 2 more of those

#

but I don't see the kombat kast near lol

#

they are going to rush in the end

#

remember frost in MK11?

#

she was break-down after the game released i think?

night vine
#

if frost was in mk 1 she wouldnt have gotten a kast at all 😭

#

at least sf6 releases dev blogs and short gameplay demonstrations

#

i remember juri and kimberly reveal trailer was quickly followed by a truck load of info

#

while mk1 is such a gigantic mess

lament thorn
#

though tekken 8 is awful at revealing

#

only 16 characters revealed, and 1 every month

#

painful

#

and all the trailers are the same

#

literally no excitment at all, street fighter did a good job

#

oh

#

it just clicked

#

sf6 cut the dlc's

#

all the characters were leaked a long time ago

#

and they turned 4 of them in dlc's with no replacements

#

maybe mk1 is doing the same

night vine
lament thorn
#

quan, ermac, omni man and peacemaker are the first 4

#

they are mixing kameos with base characters

#

and some are missing, like baraka

#

or rain

night vine
# lament thorn

maybe one of the missing two will actually be one of these upgraded from a kameo

lament thorn
#

this pretty much confirms sareena at least as a kameo

night vine
#

oh yeah but this was months ago, i think theres a small chance but i admit its a gut feeling not much logic behind my belief

lament thorn
#

normally by the time mk1 got revealed, they already worked on every character

#

they might tweak things ofc

night vine
#

yeah but something clearly changed

#

so the two slots are open to characthers that would make sense within the story we have

lament thorn
#

kano just never makes sense haha

night vine
#

so in order of likeability its probably goes something sonya-kano-sareena-jade.

#

yeah but nrs finds a way 😭

lament thorn
#

he just there acting like a mercenary

#

they should make him sit down for a game

#

same with sonya

night vine
#

im full agreement there

lament thorn
#

i'd prefer sareena to get a chance, though for me is a female version of reiko close to Skarlet+nitara but anyways

night vine
#

when i say they are likely im just admiting defeat i do not want either of them to take a base roster nor dlc truth to be told

narrow jungle
#

Seen a theory that baraka might be Kano

night vine
#

sareena would be more of a female noob saibot

#

they could expand on her fantasy of having a demonic form

#

darkness, etc

#

reiko im excited to see what tricks he has up his sleeves!

#

what if nrs does something silly and they fast reveal every characther through trailers

sour lily
#

Shirukens in his sleeves

night vine
#

then spend the time with kombat kasts

#

😭

night vine
#

i didnt notice since the quality was so abd

sour lily
#

Well no

lament thorn
sour lily
#

Just a random idea

night vine
#

ah okay

sour lily
#

I wonder if throwing knives would work for Reiko

night vine
#

i do in fact hope they kept his shurikens i love that weapon

sour lily
#

Yeah

#

Wonder if Reiko might get a ninja costume

lament thorn
sour lily
night vine
#

next trailer i assume well see nitara and reiko for sure

#

now a mixture of ashrah, sindel or shao

#

i even think sindel will get a special trailer on the way they are teasing her

lament thorn
#

i just personally wanted all the black dragons to sit down this game, and special forces, so we get a red dragon chance, which we are actually having

sour lily
#

Daegon
Hsu Hao
Mavado

#

That’s like
All their named members, I think

lament thorn
#

so i got my wish granted, partially, if it's just sonya and kano

sour lily
#

Unless they make Belokk a Netherrealmer red dragon of some kind

night vine
#

mavado as a kameo will be interesting for sure

lament thorn
#

i thought havik was related to the red dragons

sour lily
sour lily
lament thorn
#

havik black dragon?

sour lily
#

well not exactly

#

But he did influence Kabal

#

Into rejoining the Crack Doragons

lament thorn
#

kano, jared, kira, kano, kabal, erron, and i think darrius? are black dragons

#

i said 2 kano's lol

sour lily
#

Darrius isn’t black dragon

#

You thinking Snow Blind Dairou?

lament thorn
#

jesus, i forgot about dairou's existence

sour lily
#

dairou the yee yee aaa haircut mercenary

lament thorn
#

his design is easily the worst character design for me

#

Hotaru should come back in the future, he has potential

sour lily
#

yeah ik, it’s blurry

lament thorn
#

Havik is just Chaosrrealm, so no dragons, he may ally with red dragons or black dragons though

#

and Hotaru is Orderrealm

sour lily
#

Hotaru using the power of

ABACUS’ LIGHT

to flashbang Havik

narrow jungle
#

We will probably get some characters in the story like mkx who won’t be playable

sour lily
#

Like jerrod’s corpse

lament thorn
lament thorn
#

ferra / torr probably

sour lily
lament thorn
#

since ferra will be kameo

narrow jungle
#

No I didn’t mean characters from mkx

narrow jungle
#

I was talking about having characters show up who aren’t gonna be playable

#

Like li mei

#

And I think sareena

#

And rain

lament thorn
#

rain, li mei, tanya, and sareena

sour lily
#

Li Mei’s playable

#

Rain’s playable

#

Sareena, not so far

lament thorn
#

well tanya is dlc so, might count

#

they had more fights than kano in story mode

#

yet still they weren't playable lol

sour lily
#

Oh wait

#

I thought this was mk1 stuff

#

Didn’t notice the MKX thing

lament thorn
#

i miss li mei's swords

#

i thought she would keep the swords for sure

#

but they went full liu kang with her, so i'm not mad about it

narrow jungle
lament thorn
#

looking at her pose, it didn't look like she is going to have them

#

she looks like a total brawler

sour lily
#

Fireworks go boom

lament thorn
#

like old sonya

narrow jungle
#

Hope smoke has that shake move

lament thorn
#

she even has pink proyectiles like sonya

#

sonya de-konfirmed

toxic delta
#

Swords are overrated anyways

lament thorn
#

i like the firework kung fu though

sour lily
sour lily
lament thorn
sour lily
#

Or Cassie’s drone with a shotgun

#

Or Wheatley crab

lament thorn
#

or just guns, actually, she could be more like cassie

lament thorn
#

no more drons please

toxic delta
#

Yes just make all kombat kids disappear like Jacqui's hourglass ending

lament thorn
#

thank you kronika

dawn sierra
night vine
toxic delta
#

Are they?

#

As a Jade stan I still don't harass nobody though maybe some Jade stans do

toxic delta
#

Ngl the gamer fandom can be ass sometimes lolol

lament thorn
#

in general, mileena fandom is crazier

#

but jade's has also some annoying ones

#

but i would say i've seen more respectful request for her

narrow jungle
#

I only see Jade Stan’s in Ed boons tweets

#

That same video of Jade edited onto someone ranting

lament thorn
#

yeah

#

right now she is basically the girl to go for

#

but i remember when mileena was missing, messages like "BRING HER BACK" "I WON'T BUY THE GAME UNTIL QUEEN BACK"

#

all in capital letters

#

and those are the soft ones

toxic delta
#

Female ninjas are popular

#

Tbh ninjas are popular

#

That's why we need more ninjas

#

The sad part being a ninja stan is that you'll get some ninjas in each game but not all

lament thorn
#

mk1 will have all i'm sure

toxic delta
#

Yass (unless they forget tremor and chameleon lol)

lament thorn
#

tremor is konfirmed kameo

narrow jungle
lament thorn
#

and chameleon

narrow jungle
#

Guess they will miss out on Mk for the 4th time

toxic delta
#

Yeah right

lament thorn
#

let them age

#

lol

#

they gonna look like shujinko when onaga's playable

toxic delta
#

Lmfao

lament thorn
#

šŸ’€

#

if we get a kameo of noob

#

we will indirectly have noob/smoke in the game

#

or directly

narrow jungle
#

I’m begging for it

lament thorn
#

he is the last male ninja to be represented

toxic delta
#

Nobody cares about n00b

#

He's the worst ninja ever

#

He's not even 1 ninja he's 2 ninjas

lament thorn
#

i personally don't like him though

toxic delta
#

He is Bi Han without any redeeming qualities

lament thorn
#

i was about to say this

toxic delta
#

That's because the only redeeming quality Bi Han has is being a hot guy

lament thorn
#

facts

#

he was in mk11 cuz he got requested a lot

#

his role in the story was insignificant

#

appeared, said "hey", got beat up, the end

#

at least frost did the same but 3-4 times

#

btw, on another matter, you guys think Sindel gonna be a baddie this game?

#

apparently jerrod was murdered, again, sigh liu kang couldn't stop that

#

li mei lost her job

#

shao back at poisoning again? sindel helped him?

toxic delta
#

I think it's implied that Sindel is the ruler not Jerrod, because it's said that Mileena will inherit the throne

narrow jungle
#

jerrod died

toxic delta
#

Why would a king kill his wife? (Unless you're Henry the 7th lol)

lament thorn
#

sindel is prop the current ruler, but she could have stayed around... for whatever reason

#

the thing is, jerrod was murdered by sindel and shao

#

in the previous game, right?

#

i mean, they said that

toxic delta
lament thorn
#

maybe the story begins with jerrod's murder

narrow jungle
#

Probably

lament thorn
#

and peace is going to be disrupted

narrow jungle
#

Shang tsung turning Shao evil so yeh

toxic delta
#

My theory is that it's Shang Tsung from alternate timeline

lament thorn
toxic delta
#

He won in his timeline and decides to conquer other timelines

lament thorn
#

i wished general shao was a goodie this time

#

i had that thought before, but at this point I don't think that's the case, but shang tsung may know things

#

somehow

dawn sierra
#

Im leaning on Sindel having Shao for a lover and them murdering Jerrod

#

Basically the Mummy plot

#

I think Sindel will come off less evil

#

But still kinda an ass

#

I hope she isn't ensorcelled this time

toxic delta
#

I'm leaning on Shao murdering Jerrod due to jealousy

dawn sierra
#

They'll probably make her much ledd of an abusive mother nonetheless

toxic delta
#

It depends on whether Sindel or Jerrod is the ruler tbh. If Sindel is the ruler she has no reason to murder Jerrod

tribal axle
#

I’m leaning on Jerrod legit accidentally falling of the stairs by himself this time around

toxic delta
#

Which, I'm inclined to believe because they never called him Emperor or Kahn, but 'father of the prrincess'

dawn sierra
#

That is also possible

#

In any case, I think Sindel will be softer than MK11 version but still elitist at the very least

lament thorn
#

they called him King Jerrod

toxic delta
#

Hmm

tribal axle
#

Finally

#

A character for the cuck fanbase

lament thorn
#

me waiting for my mom to hang up the phone and prepare my food

#

when i saw this image i thought motaro had 2 legs

#

i was like šŸ’€

tribal axle
#

ā€œCan I sleep with you tonight mom? I’m afraid of the thundersā€

native dock
#

wait what

#

there we go

lost quail
#

Motaro leaks

sudden geode
#

Combat cast this week?

dawn sparrow
narrow jungle
lament thorn
#

no dates are killing me

#

and i mean kombat kast dates

thick rain
#

Won't be Jade we know she's not in the story at all

narrow jungle
#

Well are you sure about that

#

Liu kang mentioned her in a intro with Kitana

#

ā€œKeep her close ā€œ something like that

thick rain
#

Yes

#

He knows the story all the way and said she's not even mentioned in it

toxic delta
#

šŸ”ŖšŸ«€

#

Me rn^

thick rain
#

I could easily see her as dlc

night vine
#

If ermac and quan chi are in the story

#

But as playable solely as dlc, what does that leaves us for those two slots?

#

The leaker hasnt come out with any other info

thick rain
#

We don't know who those 2 slots are

#

I'm sure the leaker knows all the characters in the story mode

#

For example Motoro is in the story

dawn sierra
#

I doubt it's gonna be Jade but nonetheless the leaker has an old version of the script

#

The big MK11 leaker did as well, one where the events where roughly the same but Shang Tsung had a big role

night vine
thick rain
#

Ok

#

Khameleon

#

It doesn't matter

#

There's probably 2 "NPCs" like that in the story that r000r didn't think was playable

night vine
#

i really dont think khameleon is playable

#

kameo yeah but playable im hard to belive it

thick rain
#

That's not what I'm really saying

#

There seems to be a lot of characters in the story mode

night vine
#

i get it

thick rain
#

And Ermac and Quan probably have a big chunk of stuff indicating they fight and story importance that they thought they were playable

#

It would be like reading about Cyrax and Sektor in mk11 it would seem like they are playable to someone just reading the script

night vine
thick rain
#

My guess is Quan and Ermac have that level plot importance where as someone like Noob didn't

dawn sierra
#

Or had

night vine
#

is it wrong to want them to reveal the whole roster?

dawn sierra
#

It's likely it was an old script

night vine
#

i mean their promo schedule is already awfull like why waity

thick rain
#

I don't think it would be changed

dawn sierra
#

And there is precedent for that

#

MK11 story mode had ST having a big role

thick rain
#

If there was play testers play testing those characters there is no way they aren't in the story mode

dawn sierra
#

And that was poofed

thick rain
#

As far as I'm aware he leaked everything 1:1 in mk11

dawn sierra
#

Idr who it was, but it was a discord leak

#

In the MK11 pre release era

night vine
#

mk11 had mileena and shinnok on the roster added on top of what we got and i honestly belive they were cut last minute like cyrax and sekto

dawn sierra
#

Had the storyline (which was p much the same, with shang tsung in), full roster and dlc chars (with some extras)

#

They probably just copied r000r and made there own changes

dawn sierra
#

Yup

#

Sareena too

thick rain
#

All that was def fake

#

I remember it now

night vine
#

i have a weird gut feeling sareena will be a dark horse that somehow makes it in

dawn sierra
#

Afaik, that was THE leak

#

Anyway

night vine
#

because like

#

who can it be 😭

#

they removed quan and ermac

thick rain
#

I shared a discord with that leaker

dawn sierra
#

Sonya and Kano šŸ¤—

thick rain
#

Dude had a mental breakdown and left

#

It was to route out leakers

night vine
#

and the playtesters only mentioned omniman peacekeeper and homelander so they didnt test takeda or any of those "dlc" that was swapped for ermac and quan chi

dawn sierra
#

I kinda hope they finally add her in so whoever is horny for her gets it out their system

night vine
#

so it was probably not complelty developed?

thick rain
night vine
#

my guess... with the consideration r000rs script can be old and we do have a precedent for these sort of things

#

maybe countess jade will make it in by the thiness of a nail?

dawn sierra
#

I'm glad that while spaced out

night vine
#

but I somehow think sareena can make it

dawn sierra
#

Nrs is indeed revealing relatively big chunks of chars

night vine
#

mostly because her kameo could easly become a full characther keeping some of her moves like li mei

#

if i had to pick one of the kameos to be "upgraded" from the diamon vision list

#

i think sareena would make the most sense

#

hell maybe its sareena and mavado 😭

dawn sierra
#

I hate Mavado

#

Idr who is he

#

But it's just Malvado (evil man) without an L

#

Boraicho at least disguises it in pseudo east asian language

night vine
#

i mean if mavado got a brand new... well everything

#

i could see it work?

#

im just throwing it out there

dawn sierra
#

googles

#

Idr this person

#

Although i like the slutty outfit

#

He can keep that

night vine
#

hes boring in the 3dera but theres maybe a spark of personality they can maybe work with ? idk

dawn sierra
#

Well he has like a corset and tits out

#

So yeah

night vine
#

i want jade and sareena the most

#

ready to accept sonya and kano

dawn sierra
#

Im chill with them

night vine
#

cautiously optimistic out of a gut feeling for sonya and sareena

dawn sierra
#

Just hope Kano has a bearded version

#

And i'm in a Barbie mood so Sonya is cool

night vine
#

sonya having a brand new face while kano and jax look somewhat the same certaintly arises suspicions

dawn sierra
#

It's not that deep

#

Rhonda was probably more expensive, criticized and she is problematic irl

#

While the other two aren't

#

If anything, not recasting her was the logical option

#

I didn't really like how Keri Hoskins campaigned for the role again so i didn't want her to get it either, tbh

thick rain
#

I do think Hotaru could be one of the 2

#

However I think they are merging Hotaru with Havik

dawn sierra
#

My theory is General Shao is Sindel's lover

#

They killed Jerrod

#

Something something happened, Jerrod ended up becoming Havik

#

And Tarkat might be the reason for the fucked up face

#

Since it doesn't affect everyone in the same way

#

Sindel is a big ? for me because she had a big subversion in MK11

#

So i dunno if they'll subvert the most recent version, the classic one or take the middle road (which is what I would prefer)

thick rain
#

Havik being Jerrod is insanely stupid

#

I don't think NRS is that dumb thankfully

#

I think he's the main villain of the game and he knows about the past timeline so it wouldn't surprise me if he was a fake Hanzo

dawn sierra
#

We'll see

#

I dont dislike it though

#

And his mural does have the right vibe

thick rain
#

It's a lame way to make Jerrod relevant

dawn sierra
#

Meh

#

I really didn't give a f about Havik before anyway

#

Elaborating in that

thick rain
#

So to make him better you make him a character that's died 50 different ways?

dawn sierra
#

Man it's A WHOLE NEW WORLD

#

Idrc

thick rain
#

It's a whole new world and none of the 3d era characters are a sliver different

dawn sierra
#

Would also be cool if he turned into a chaos cleric while still being kill so Sindel and Shao conspire to kill him for that reason

dawn sierra
thick rain
#

Reiko and Tanya aren't 3d era

#

Kenshi and Li Mei are hardly different

dawn sierra
#

Oh i forgot Mk4 was 2D

thick rain
#

NRS considers Mk4 as arcade era

#

And 90% of the game is 2d

#

You'd know if you ever touched the game

dawn sierra
#

Its a 3D model. For me it's 3D

#

Nonetheless Li Mei is different and so is Kenshi

thick rain
#

Okay so mk11 is 3d era

#

Makes sense

dawn sierra
#

Gurl, even the ones in your definition, are different

thick rain
#

Li Mei went from a outworlder protecting her people to a outworlder cop protecting her people

#

That's a huge difference

#

Gigantic even

dawn sierra
#

Unless i missed the plot of Li Mei being a dumped priestess seeking redemption and Kenshi being a Yakuza lmao

thick rain
#

Her being a dumped priestess is just a little different story lol

#

It's not changing anything about her

#

Kenshi being Yakuza doesn't affect shit either

dawn sierra
#

Havik origin being king jerrod is just a little bit different story, it's not changing anything about him

thick rain
#

You're taking little scraps and acting like they're completely different

dawn sierra
#

You are the only deluding yourself hun

#

As usual

thick rain
#

He's not Havik he's Jerrod

dawn sierra
#

Is Scorpion not Scorpion anymore?

thick rain
#

He's literally not

dawn sierra
#

Hmmm NRS disagrees

#

Anyway

thick rain
#

I don't even think you know what you're talking about

dawn sierra
#

We'll be finding out in a month and half anyway

thick rain
#

Scorpion has always been Hanzo

dawn sierra
#

Sure thing

thick rain
#

This Scorpion isn't the original Scorpion

#

He's a different character

dawn sierra
#

If you say so

thick rain
#

Man really doesn't know what a title is šŸ’€

dawn sierra
#

BU-BUT MAKING SCORPION A WHOLE DIFFERENT CHARACTER ISN'T PROOF OF A-ANYTHING.

#

It's proof NRS doesn't give a fuck

#

So anything goes

toxic delta
#

That's not true

#

I guess they wanna make Scorpion and Subzero brothers

#

Which the obvious choice is to let Kuat Liang inherit the mantle because that's what he does to people he honors

#

Would be funny if Hanzo is as happy about it as Noob was when he found out Kuai Liang inherit his mantle

toxic delta
#

The only one with a whole different character would be Raiden. But that's because he swapped with Liu Kang lol

blissful folio
thick rain
#

It just doesn't make much sense tbh

#

Why would Jerrod become Havik

#

There was a "Leak" on Kombat Pack 2 where Harley Quinn and Deathstroke were in the same pack, also they said that Takeda is Hanzo which both are really dumb

thick rain
#

We also know it's fake cus the list doesn't have Conan

#

Who was leaked

dawn sparrow
thick rain
#

Or you can just read what I posted

dawn sparrow
#

And it would be cool if Deathstroke showed up as dlc

magic bone
#

reptile you mean

dawn sparrow
thick rain
#

Mhm

dawn sparrow
#

That's good

#

Also I saw some dumb YouTube comments saying that Smoke is Hanzo

thick rain
#

People are saying everyone is Hanzo

#

It's tedious

dawn sparrow
#

For real

#

Like just let the man live in peace

#

He earned it

thick rain
#

Now I'm hearing more stupidity

#

"maybe Takeda is Kenshis father"

dawn sparrow
#

Have these people played mkx?

toxic delta
thick rain
#

What game do you guys think has a better roster

#

Deception or Deadly Alliance

dawn sparrow
#

Deception

thick rain
#

Now which of the 2 do you think had the worst roster?

brave olive
#

DA

#

Deception had the better game modes and roster

thick rain
#

Kuei did you see the tweet

brave olive
#

Wot

thick rain
#

This

#

Fun way of saying it

thick rain
#

I love watching the new trailer reactions

#

They're just like " oh cool Baraka" and then he does his combo and everyone gets hype

clever falcon
#

Baraka being a good guy is a nice change

thick rain
#

Hopefully he gets a chapter

# thick rain Why would Jerrod become Havik

The common theory is that he gets cucked by Sindel with Shao Kahn and goes mad!!

I don't know where it started, must be a resemblemnce between Jerrod's clothes in the picture and Havik's old Deception clothes.

dawn sierra
#

That's basically the whole reason of being

#

For the havik part

#

The sindel/shao part might apply regardless of

sage jewel
#

I knew it lmao

#

Movado is confirmed

#

I hope they still add kabal

lament thorn
#

unpopular opinion he looks badass

dawn sparrow
lament thorn
#

so, she is not recognizable as Tanya, however she is the only female character with black skin and yellow cloth that we know of

brave olive
#

Jacqui

lament thorn
#

this guy says she only has 1 move yet I see 3 moves that reminds me of her, and also she has bright eyes in her gameplay

lament thorn
brave olive
#

Tbh people mainly complain about how her design doesn't really look like Tanya in the previous iterations but that's the point cus it's a new era....

lament thorn
#

what alts? in mk11 you can literally wear any colour with any character

brave olive
#

Yh lol that's what I meant

#

She has yellow kostumes

toxic delta
lament thorn
toxic delta
#

A little controversy is understandable, but this? It'll be stupid to deny that it's sexism and racism and gamingcirclejerkism by incels

lament thorn
#

and tbh, i liked MKX's tanya maybe the most. But still I think her design is new and fresh

brave olive
#

Only characters that should look the same are Kang, Shang and ig Bi-Han cus he's him while Kang and Shang are from the previous timelines

toxic delta
#

People were pretty mad about kuai liang being Scorpion, but did people try to rally others to harass Daisuke Tsuji or Tony Cheung?

brave olive
#

Who?

toxic delta
#

VA and face model

brave olive
#

Oh ok

lament thorn
#

lol

toxic delta
#

So why they harass face model of Tanya? If the whole issue is just her design?

#

We know the reason lol

brave olive
#

Someone said she looks too much like a Wakandan soldier then said that they aren't racist šŸ˜‚

lament thorn
#

honestly just do a remaster of the same games over and over if people want the same story with the same costumes

#

people are seriously stupid

#

this is like harrassing Jeffrey Dean Morgan when he appeared in TWD

#

he received several threads because of what Negan, his character, did on the show

#

literally stupidity

toxic delta
brave olive
#

Yeah that's what they were doing

lament thorn
#

literally look at he whole army, they are all in same costumes

#

umgadi or whatever

#

her design is like this to fit the narrative like you said

brave olive
#

"guys my main complaint is that she looks too much like a wakandan warrior but to the people mocking her cus if the colour of her skin

Fuck yall racists"

proceeds to be racist towards Tanya's "Wakandan" look

lament thorn
#

doesn't mean she won't have alt costumes, we may get her original design

brave olive
#

My only complaint about Tanya is that she lost her pyromancy

lament thorn
#

full alternate costumes are much more capable of changing designs than MK11's customization

brave olive
#

Didn't she have like sand powers too?

toxic delta
lament thorn
#

the teleport of mkx

brave olive
#

We call it the drill kick

lament thorn
#

that one

brave olive
#

She would have that purpley dark magik stuff too

lament thorn
#

also feel like she does some moves with her legs in the air which reminds me of MKX's too, not the same, but had the feeling

toxic delta
#

Also Liu Kang looks about 0% recognizable compared to past Liu Kang yet people didn't even complain

lament thorn
#

mileena too

#

maybe Ashrah

lament thorn
#

so giving tanya full golden power is ok

brave olive
#

Tru

toxic delta
#

See if people can accept unrecognizable designs for lore reasons, we know the issue isn't that

brave olive
#

Ngl the umgadi is such a cool concept. Femme fatale warrior fighting for outworld royalty

lament thorn
#

i have no complains with Liu Kang, his face maybe should have stayed the same as in MK11

toxic delta
#

It is the same

brave olive
#

Btw when is the next trailer and hopefully it will have less controversy than the Tanya thing

toxic delta
#

If you compare it to his face model, his face looks even more like face model than mk11 did

lament thorn
#

maybe, but it feels his face is a little too much changed

#

anyways i won't complain, idc about it

brave olive
#

I'm complaining about how Kang lost his iconic bicycle kick 😤

lament thorn
#

kameo liu kang

brave olive
#

He has a new kick that looks nothing like it

brave olive
lament thorn
#

true, but still it may have some representation

brave olive
#

It does

#

But the newer kick looks trash

brave olive
#

But it's less klassic

toxic delta
#

Imagine people have that much of an outrage and go harass the face model for looking like himself lolol

brave olive
#

Fr those are the racists

toxic delta
narrow jungle
toxic delta
#

Or Kameo Liu Kang (pls be a thing)

#

Or he'll be the only OG without Kameo

narrow jungle
#

Hope one of Quan chi or shang tsung is a kameo so we can do deadly alliance

lament thorn
#

probably shang will be kameo

#

if i had to choose one of those

boreal island
#

idk why i thought this but if bi-han and kuai liang are sub zero and scorpion, and quan chi is back, does that mean The Shirai Ryu Thing still happened. and if so does that mean hanzo hasashi will become noob saibot, or maybe even be a different take on hanzo as a fighter

dawn sparrow
#

Oh shit. You're right

toxic delta
#

As long as Noob Saibot doesn't go by the name Noob Saibot I'm good with whoever is going to be him

bitter otter
#

Geras and Erron both have move sets revolving around sand

#

Erron not as much in 11 but mf had sand in like every move of his in MKX

night vine
night vine
#

Thats where the convo loses its plot bcs they are comparing her to post betrayal tanya

#

Also she has her drill kick and teleport

toxic delta
#

We all know the hate is 99% not due to the design being unrecognizable lol

night vine
#

And a air boomerang

#

Wich was her original weapon

#

And dragon daginata esque moves

#

AND. Grabs like her kobu jutsu

night vine
#

Ppl are just what you said

toxic delta
#

Also the sHE iS eGyPtiAN argument is cap

#

Because her original look isn't really Egyptian, it's obviously black

lament thorn
thick rain
#

Even in 4

thick rain
#

Would be like saying human Reptile is fine because he was originally a pallette swap

#

Personally idc about Tanya but what people looked like before they were fleshed out is just cus they didn't know what to do with them

boreal island
thick rain
#

Originally he was just a character who used subs and scorpions moves

#

This stuff is gonna look silly when the game comes out and she has a MKX skin anyways

#

Losing the white eyes is still lame though

bitter otter
#

It sucks for those that were looking for representation out of Tonya, brown people often get the short end of the stick when it comes to media and they’re portrayed either white or black where an Egyptian should look more like someone from the Middle East

#

Not my prob tho I don’t play edenians anyway

toxic delta
thick rain
#

Oh lol

#

People are dumb

night vine
#

Her white eyes and black make up and even long loose hair are the signs of a bad girl

night vine
#

people are being delusional

#

and i sorta wanna join to feel something again

dawn sierra
#

Meh

#

It's idiotic people fight about changing faces this much

night vine
#

mhh

#

this is jades voice actor

#

her eyeshadow is causing mass delusional behaviour

dawn sierra
#

It was stupid with MK11 Kitana but i can sorta get it because they hadn't fully commited to making her look asian before

#

But Tanya was dancing around the whole dark skin spectrum before, like Jade

#

So yeah

#

Her new appareance wasn't even outside the "boundaries" of her previous appareances

#

And the edenian girlies change hairstyles all the time

boreal island
#

i like tanyas appearance

dawn sierra
#

She looks kinda like Naomi Campbell

night vine
#

I feel like people dont realize the overall sensibilities and visibility has largely change when tanya was created

dawn sierra
#

Yup

night vine
#

and that mkx tanya was a rushed mess from a whitewashed version that was sorta tuned

dawn sierra
#

I do wish

boreal island
#

mortal kombat 2 movie tanyas gonna be played by naomi campbell

dawn sierra
#

Her hair was

#

Curlier

#

Like... Idk if i explain myself

night vine
#

those are locks, maybe if she gets a loose hair version it will have texture

dawn sierra
#

This sort of hair style is common in the subsaharan region and most people there have curly hair

#

However

#

They might want to keep her with straight her to have an alt with a bob and bangs

#

Either way its fine with me

night vine
#

i think if she gets a bob it will be a braided bob

dawn sierra
#

Although going fully egyptian wig would be cool as well and I hope she gets a mkx inspired outfit

dawn sierra
thick rain
#

Genuinely I didn't know that people were upset that she was black lol

#

That is the most idiotic thing I've heard from this community

night vine
#

like thi

#

ofc with bangs or something

dawn sierra
#

Oftentimes the "she looks ugly now" are actually "she looks more african" in disguise. Intentionally or not

thick rain
#

She isn't even ugly

#

I just wish she looked more Egyptian

night vine
#

and they picked a screenshot of her talking in a tense scene as a sign that shes ugly

thick rain
#

Clothing wise

night vine
#

plus racism, featurism , colourism

dawn sierra
#

Yeah

#

Its like

thick rain
#

People are idiots

dawn sierra
#

She is pissed and screaming

#

How the hell is she supposed to look?

night vine
#

but at the end of the day shes getting all this free promo and conversation so im not mad

#

and again tyrant shes wearing a uniform with some elementss to signal her leadership of the order

thick rain
#

I 100% think that Tanya doesn't look or feel like Tanya but making fun of her face and race is shitty asf

dawn sierra
#

I do wish she hadn't gotten the multi hands thing tho

#

Cuz

#

Jade would have been perf for the 1000 hands thing

night vine
#

maybe when she betrays everyone or goes on the run shell have her deception-mkx aesthetic

thick rain
#

Her onion ring hair I'm not a fan of though

#

But that'll probably be fixed in a different skin

night vine
#

i love her hair because it looks like a headress or a veil

#

wich fits her priestess fantasy

dawn sierra
#

Since Jade was slightly arab/indian coded

#

In mk11

night vine
#

the hands make sense as shes becoming more associated with divine magic than normal magic

#

Jade, as a countess will probably remain on the "edenian royalty" fantasy

#

of a magical signature weapon supported with magic

dawn sierra
#

Nonetheless

#

Im looking forward to see where they take her

#

I'm dead set that she will be bad in this one

#

So i expect her to serve cunt

night vine
#

yeah and she has so much more to lose now

dawn sierra
#

And Jade always has the best outfits

night vine
#

wait jade or tanya?

dawn sierra
#

Jade

night vine
#

ohh jade

#

I dont think shell be evil but that would be cunt as well id tune in at least

dawn sierra
#

I actually expect Tanya to be a more Jade-like character in this one

#

And Jade to betray Kitana's ass

night vine
#

i think tanya is being put so much in being the most trustworthy umgadi

#

but shes already going agaist their rules with her love for mileena

#

i think she might have sommething to do with jerod dying idk

dawn sierra
#

I dunno

thick rain
#

I think Tanya will betray

#

I think she's the one that gives Mileena the disease

dawn sierra
#

But looking at MK Anhilation, Shaolin Monks and the malibu comics, i think their very first intentions with Jade were making her bad

#

So they might go back to that

thick rain
#

I think they're trying to set up that Rain is the betrayer and he ends up being good in this game

dawn sierra
#

I dunno

#

But if truly expect Tanya to remain loyal to Mileena

thick rain
#

Or Tanya and Rain both betray

#

I think Baraka has a chapter this game

dawn sierra
#

Hope they give the jobbers some

#

Specially reptile

#

Since he has never won anything

thick rain
#

I wouldn't be surprised if he was the only character without a canonical win

dawn sierra
#

Iirc he doesn't have any

#

Idk if he is the only

thick rain
#

I don't think Darrius or Dairou have one

#

Besides that maybe lpl

dawn sierra
#

They are w.e. tho

night vine
#

but i think tanya will be a traitor to the system

#

but not to the ones she loves

#

like mileena

toxic delta
night vine
toxic delta
#

I know and I wanna believe so much 😭

boreal island
#

dude imagine she does arrive in like kombat pack 2

night vine
#

nrs already fucked over the promo for this they might as well reveal everyone 😭

toxic delta
#

Also Jade was one of the few characters who had eye shadow

night vine
#

I think jade will be in mk1 sooner or latter

#

but i wouldnt mind not having to wait a bit longer

boreal island
#

either that game or mk13

thick rain
#

I don't know

#

Jade is one of those characters who are in a game then miss the next one

#

I could see her being dlc and I could see her completely missing the game

#

Even if you look at KP1 they are staple characters

#

And one fan request (Takeda)

#

I think the aftermath style pack could be like Cyrax, Noob, and Sareena (fan request)

boreal island
#

where nitara/j

thick rain
#

She's base roster

#

We even heard her at the panel

#

I think Reiko, Nitara, Reptile is our next reveal trio

toxic delta
thick rain
#

She could be

#

I just think Sareena fits NRS style of dlc better

toxic delta
#

I guess. She did show up in MK11 as well for a tiny bit

#

But Jade 🄲

thick rain
#

NRS Always trys to get that one "wtf" mk character

toxic delta
#

Meat. Mokap. Nimbus Terrafaux

thick rain
#

Tremor, Bo, Cary as Shang, Fujin, Rain

toxic delta
#

How is any of those 'wtf' at all?

thick rain
#

My guy Tremor was in the worst mk game of all time

toxic delta
#

Cary as Shang is a nice touch but it's not like they don't have other movie skins. It's just that they make Cary the canon skin

thick rain
#

Bo and Fujin weren't in a game for over a decade

#

I'm saying "wtf" as a huge hype rebels not as a bad thing

toxic delta
#

I still don't think they fit that definition either tbh

thick rain
#

Tremor was only in MK special forces, and mk9 vita for some reason then showed up as dlc

#

How do they not?

toxic delta
#

Tremor was there so that we have all the ninjas

#

He's definitely the most forgettable ninja though

thick rain
#

Noob and Chameleon say hi

#

And Rain

toxic delta
#

Chameleon is also included right?

#

Are we talking about which game?

thick rain
#

Included in what

#

I assumed you were talking mkx

#

Mk1 it's Khameleon not Chameleon

toxic delta
#

I know, but both are included iirc?

thick rain
#

Nah just Khameleon

#

Unless Chameleon is base Kameo

toxic delta
#

Ah well. But whatever

#

They're niche af anyway

thick rain
#

Tremor being in MKX was a big deal

#

This would be like if they made Hydro dlc

toxic delta
#

IMO making Hyrdo dlc is more comparable to making Cole dlc

thick rain
#

How so

toxic delta
#

He's not a game character

thick rain
#

He is now

toxic delta
#

Is he?

thick rain
#

Yep made canon in mk11

toxic delta
#

Yeah I guess, but he's still closer to Cole than Tremor tbh

thick rain
#

It really doesn't matter

toxic delta
#

Also we already have a water-themed ninja

thick rain
#

It's a character that made one appearance in a super niche place then added as playable

#

It's dope that they do that

#

And now Tremor is a super loved character

#

I can only hope Havik becomes a staple after mk1

#

This stupid "he was someone else before" could ruin him though

boreal island
#

imagine cole is in kombat pack 2

#

should've called him kole

toxic delta
#

Kole will be a female ninja, but with Cole's powers
