Mortal Kombat 1

[lament thorn]

since that character was planned for dlc

[short echo]

nah , main spot is reserved for main char.Kameo roster is different.

[lament thorn]

so maybe gets revealed with shang like you said, in a random kk

the problem is, it doesn't seem to be a character with appearance in story

so...

[short echo]

they must be saving shang for something like this imo.

[lament thorn]

shang appears in the story

the green skull is totally his or quan chi's

[short echo]

no i mean for this

[lament thorn]

oh ok

[short echo]

im not sure about story stuff , i read that long ago i hardly remember leaks about it xd

[lament thorn]

if it's unlocked trough invasion mode..

what if he is drahmin lol

[short echo]

we can also get skins , mode , customization stuff too btw

[lament thorn]

no one would expect that

or Moloch

[short echo]

but im not sure if it is a good idea to show that in gamescom

chars reveal make more sense for gamescom

[lament thorn]

not in a trailer

probably in an interview of some sort of gameplay discussing the new mode

[short echo]

i hope not xd

im not fan of that dude xd

last spot must be female char

or it will be a waste

[lament thorn]

me neither, but as a secret character that doesn't fight in the story... hm

[short echo]

lack of female chars in this roster is disturbing

[lament thorn]

i don't really mind

if someone wants girls they should play dead or alive

lol

[short echo]

it is not about having girls lol or i would find from many places

[lament thorn]

i just want a character, don't really care much about a girl or not

[short echo]

there are very good female fighters too as design or story

[lament thorn]

the girls confirmed in this game are in itself the greatest cast of girls

[short echo]

also female gameplay are more light , quick not heavy like boyz

[lament thorn]

skarlet will be missed, and jade though i'm not a fan of her

sonya at least has representation

[short echo]

well i love both but not surprised

[lament thorn]

and sareena

[brave olive]

jade has representation

[short echo]

sareena as kameo is so wasted

[lament thorn]

in dialogue 💀

she's represented there

[brave olive]

representation is representation

[lament thorn]

actually

i just had the thought

the last character might be actually kintaro lol

a shokan

a SHOKAN

[brave olive]

https://tenor.com/view/yessss-hell-yeah-brother-gif-22960551

[lament thorn]

we have goro but, kintaro can make it, sorry sheeva you were in mk11

[short echo]

no way

[brave olive]

and goro was in mkx too so he can fuck off

[lament thorn]

if he was planned for dlc, people would have been happy to see him revealed

so it's a good guess

[short echo]

i mean kintaro , goro , sheeva make sense as story wise but goro is kameo already so i give 0 chance for kintaro

[lament thorn]

yeah but

kintaro goro team up

you know

[brave olive]

imagine Kintaro with kameo Goro

[short echo]

if goro was not in kameo and we did not know about him at all

[lament thorn]

exactly

[short echo]

it could make more sense

[brave olive]

the Shokan stomp spam 💀

[lament thorn]

but goro was in mkx

by the way, not in story

so kintaro could be the one to get that service lol

[brave olive]

cus he died prior to the events of the MKX story

or well he lost his arms

[short echo]

last char can be something new

we have not got anything new so far

[brave olive]

NO

[lament thorn]

and, he was planned for dlc at first, but got swapped for quan and ermac, so he was not planned to be base game, so it makes the scenario more likely,

nah

[short echo]

new char for reboot make sense xd

[lament thorn]

no new char

not for mk1

in mk2 yeah sure, but just a little

even tekken 8 is going for just 3 new characters

[brave olive]

fuck new characters, expand on mk 3d era

also i just realised Li Mei's knee and overhead kick are from MK Deception

[short echo]

kk no new chars xd

[lament thorn]

the 3d era in this game look like new characters already

is just that they exist in the lore

[short echo]

well 3d is very old so it feels so fresh

[brave olive]

so new need for new chars

[short echo]

no no , not at all xd

[lament thorn]

next mk2 gonna be hotaru's turn and havik making a comeback cuz he sucked ass in the tier list in mk1

remember that

nitara gonna die so skarlet will return in mk2, also black dragons are totally missing, their turn too

[brave olive]

mk2 roster wish list : Noob, Tremor, Onaga, Hotaru, Fujin, Motaru (holy shit Hotaru and Motaru fucking rhyme), Goro, Skarlet, Sareena, Shinnok, Drahmin, Moloch

[short echo]

oh u guys are fast while we have not see mk1 fully yet haha 😄

[brave olive]

🗿

[short echo]

if they make new inj game

[lament thorn]

mk2 is going to be black dragon dream and red dragons, like daegon, mavado, kabal, ERRON, kano ofc, maybe jarek

[short echo]

we wont see next mk game for a looooong time

[brave olive]

no

just Daegon

fuck everyone else

[sour lily]

Hotaro

[lament thorn]

mavado could have interesting moveset, also would like to see erron back

[sour lily]

What if Hsu Hao is less cyborg and more mutated

[lament thorn]

kano is the price to pay

lol

[brave olive]

no

[sour lily]

What

[brave olive]

no

[lament thorn]

oh, and hsu hao

[brave olive]

no

[lament thorn]

what if EMPEROR Hsu Hao becomes the first cyborg

[brave olive]

no

[lament thorn]

and creates cyrax and sektor

[brave olive]

no

[lament thorn]

ok this is my headcanon now

[sour lily]

What if Hsu Hao becomes Jack Krauser: MK edition (I do not know much about jack Krauser)

[brave olive]

Hsu Hao isnt even part of the Lin Kuei 😭

[lament thorn]

no

but he just creates cyborg

[brave olive]

no

[lament thorn]

i'm calling it

hsu hao comeback

[brave olive]

no

[lament thorn]

if they totally re-do his character could be a cool way to not cast him to oblivion

[brave olive]

🙄 FINE

just pls leave Jarek out of it

PLEASE

[lament thorn]

in the current timeline he seems like a good ruler (wtf)

[brave olive]

keep jarek as a meme

[lament thorn]

ok we can forget about jarek aka kano 2

[brave olive]

HAO? (heh see what I did there )

[lament thorn]

hsure

[brave olive]

good. dude isnt even kano 2.0 he just-
he just sucks

he's so boring

ngl when he gets kicked he looks like Simba's dad getting kicked off that cliff

https://tenor.com/view/lionking-simba-mufasa-no-bye-gif-5251881

someone pull up that Jarek clip

[lament thorn]

he was the concept of KaK being cut

[brave olive]

whats KaK

[lament thorn]

kreate a kharacter, and they had to give him lines in the last second with a random developer

just guessing cuz it's so bad

[brave olive]

oooh

ngl i will miss kreate a fighter

but idrk how NRS can incorporate that

I just want Chess Kombat to return

[lament thorn]

motor kombat

[brave olive]

ah yes Kombat Kart

[lament thorn]

i really hope invasion mode is interesting

or fun, at least

the name is boring though

sounds like an MKX thing

with the factions and all

i would be fine with something like the krypt in mk11

3rd person tiny shujinko story mode

lol

[brave olive]

ngl Konquest mode was amazing idk why they arent bringing that back

i love collecting the onyx coins

[lament thorn]

it would be way too much to ask for a fighting game maybe

something like sf6

would be great to see that in mk

instead of the streets though it would be a bloody dungeon with corpses and skulls

the netherrealm lobby

[thick rain]

Tier list doesn't affect playability

[lament thorn]

ik actually, but just wanted to give him a reason to comeback as god tier

havik gonna stay for one more game i think

[thick rain]

If Havik was low tier that would probably be a death sentence for him

[lament thorn]

we may see him more in his older looks

more decrepit

showing his skull and having white eyes

[brave olive]

YES

bring back the voice too

[thick rain]

It's not like he's Lao who could live off a low tier appearance

[lament thorn]

tbh, seems his looks in mk1 is just the beginning, his origins, in fact, it is, we are gonna see havik becoming havik so...

yeah but OG's are safe i think

no matter the tier list

though i don't think tier list counts that much as to bring a character back

they can just re do the gameplay and make a character little broken and that's it

[thick rain]

Like I think mk11 killed frost

[brave olive]

how?

[lament thorn]

it's more about if he fits the belly with an interesting concept and cool story

[brave olive]

they have so far made him Darrius

[lament thorn]

frost is simply unsufferable

[lament thorn]

dairou

[brave olive]

no

Darrius

[lament thorn]

how is he darrius

[thick rain]

Mk11 made alot of people not like Frost

He has the lore of Dairou

And sorta Darrius

[lament thorn]

i mean, their lore is similar in many ways

[brave olive]

HOW IS HE DAIROU 🔫

bruuh

darrius was a low-class man living in Seido

[lament thorn]

but i guess darrius didn't change, and he is in the game, so, i bet dairou got deletus yeetus

[brave olive]

Dairou was a seidan elite who left his job to become a mercenary

How are they similair bruh

[lament thorn]

if dairou comesback in the future he is gonna be way too different

havik was seidan elite too

i mean

now

[brave olive]

Huh?

no his bio says he was low class citizen

like darrius in midway

dairou was the opposite 💀

[lament thorn]

i saw a good IA generated story for dairou in reddit

AI*

[thick rain]

You should reread it

It does not

I just checked

Oh

For Darrius not Havik

[lament thorn]

if darrius and havik are seidan, anyways, i think there's a chance he was dairou, and they are trying some type of conspiracy

i just don't know what role he could fill in the story

[thick rain]

Darrius fights the regime but it's not said he was a low class citizen

[lament thorn]

because we don't know anything yet about the story despite having seen so much

we knew the baddie in mkx and mk11

[thick rain]

If you read Dairou though

[brave olive]

it says Havik is the lowest caste

[thick rain]

Yeah I said Darrius

Even corrected myself

[brave olive]

i dont think Dairou is havik

[thick rain]

Dairou lore is the closest to Havik

Plus like he's not Darrius

[dawn sparrow]

I hope Meat and Mokap become one of the kameos in the main roster

[brave olive]

but how?

there is like no overlap

Dairou used to be a part of the Seidan Guard who defected

Havik was just a guy who was unjustly punished

[thick rain]

You should reread his lore

"I was once a member of the Seidan Guard. I believed in the power of order and lived by the strict codes of my superiors. I had saved during my years of service. But when I killed an assailant in a fit of rage, I was arrested and sentenced to a life of incarnation. For all the good I had done, the event that had come to define me was that one moment of chaos."

[brave olive]

ok ok i see where ur coming from but like they do different stuff

Dairou becomes a mercenary after he escapes his punishment while Havik seeks vengeance to collapse the Seidan regime

he basically acts like Darrius but has the same backstory as Dairou

[thick rain]

I just don't get why they decided to make Havik a Dairou/Darrius collage instead of letting Havik be Havik

[brave olive]

fr

[lament thorn]

cuz havik was just "made"

while it is not yet written in lore

[brave olive]

WHOA what If havik killed jerrod

https://tenor.com/view/jinki948-cat-shocked-shocked-face-shock-gif-22585372

nah jk

[lament thorn]

most certainly havik will be like the havik we know in mk2 (based on appearance) and settle down in chaosrrealm

like, this game is an origin story of sorts, so we may see characters that are not yet as their character

[brave olive]

yh but in mk1 he's a Darrius/ou hybrid

[lament thorn]

doesn't matter, he rips his jaw and punches you with it in the trailer

all's good

[thick rain]

I highly doubt Havik will be in mk2

[brave olive]

speaking of havik's crime tho what if he killed someone??

[thick rain]

This game is the game they can finally use up the best of the 3d era so people will shut up

[lament thorn]

why

[brave olive]

idk man his relevance in lore is sorta why I like him

[thick rain]

You will get Kenshi in mk2 and love it

[lament thorn]

literally havik is the only interesting chaosrrealmer

[brave olive]

cus he's the only one

[lament thorn]

true

[brave olive]

does the chaosrealm even exist ???

[thick rain]

No

[brave olive]

damn

[lament thorn]

maybe he creates it

[brave olive]

so theres 4 main realms

[thick rain]

5

[lament thorn]

like, we don't know what's gonna happen in the story

edenia doesn't seem to exist

so there's 4

[thick rain]

Edenia still exist

[brave olive]

so Edenia still exissts?

ah nice

[thick rain]

Yes

[lament thorn]

where

[thick rain]

Boons Twitter

[brave olive]

https://tenor.com/view/drake-computer-notebook-explaning-gif-21152267

[lament thorn]

when did he said it

[thick rain]

He said Edenias change isn't as drastic as outworld

[lament thorn]

then why every stage we saw was outworld lol

[brave olive]

idk how I feel about the chaosrealm not existing tbh

[thick rain]

How often do we get a Edenian map?

[lament thorn]

if orderrealm exists, chaosrrealm has to, c'mon

[brave olive]

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[lament thorn]

we don't lol

[thick rain]

Exactly

[brave olive]

we had one in deception

wait so is Shao this time around Edenian ?

[thick rain]

Did we? Not counting konquest which isn't relatable

Repeatable*

[lament thorn]

i'm sure havik will create chaosrrealm, or something to look up for, in order to finally explore chaos and orderrealm in future, fans wanted 3d era characters and those unexplored realms

[thick rain]

Fml

Replayable

[lament thorn]

i know there was an edenian stage somewhere

[thick rain]

Havik shouldn't be screaming about Chaos

[lament thorn]

but edenia didn't exist in mk1

so how did it exist in the next games

[brave olive]

did you mean "Did we? Not counting konquest which isn't replayable"?

[thick rain]

He should be calm and Collected

Yes

[brave olive]

huh?

[lament thorn]

you said there was one edenian map in deception

[brave olive]

yh

[thick rain]

Which map

[lament thorn]

but edenia was no more since mk1

[thick rain]

It got unmerged

After mk3

[brave olive]

yh after Shao's defeat in mk3

[lament thorn]

i don't even remember that lol

[brave olive]

ffs

so yh

[lament thorn]

mk4?

[brave olive]

fucking NRS screwed it up

[brave olive]

still unmerged

[lament thorn]

merged

[brave olive]

even after shao's end in mk9 it remained a part of outworld for some reason

[lament thorn]

jarek'd ending unmerged it

[brave olive]

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[lament thorn]

the elder gods intervened this time though, he lost in a different way

[brave olive]

so 😭

[lament thorn]

so

kombat kids let's go

what we all asked for

[thick rain]

We sure did

Nt

[lament thorn]

https://tenor.com/view/copium-cat-gif-27161395

3d era should have happened in mkx

not what we got

[brave olive]

NRS: We present to you female Jax, Johnya Blage, Green arrow and a cool Samurai kid with laser whips

[lament thorn]

we did see tanya, rain, li mei...

[lament thorn]

yeah they really fucked up the roster in mkx

[brave olive]

i still cant get over how funny Rain's mask is

[brave olive]

at least it had the best guest characters

[lament thorn]

some good newcomers, but the kk 💀

npc rain and tanya

[thick rain]

Tanya and Rain are not 3d era

[brave olive]

mk9 had the best NRS newcomer

[lament thorn]

then decided to make only tanya dlc

[brave olive]

tanya is, rain isnt

mk4 sorta is 3d era

[thick rain]

MK4 is Arcade Era

Said by boon man himself

[lament thorn]

mkx should have had 28 characters, with rain, tanya, baraka, and sindel, the npc

[brave olive]

yh yh but like mk4 was the transitioning period between tekken style kombat and the 2D plain

[lament thorn]

AT LEAST

[brave olive]

remove Jacqui

[thick rain]

I don't consider it 3d era either

[brave olive]

ok ¯_(ツ)_/¯

[thick rain]

It plays like a 2d game

[brave olive]

fairs

[lament thorn]

i get why it's not 3d era, but it had 3d though...

[brave olive]

man i hate jacqui, cetrion and kollector for taking up slots in mkx - 11

[lament thorn]

you could move to the sides

[brave olive]

wasted slot space

[lament thorn]

why is not 3d era

[thick rain]

Cus it's not a 3d fighter

[brave olive]

coulda had fucking smoke or someone else in mk11 instead

[lament thorn]

but it has 3d fighting, a tiny bit

[thick rain]

It doesn't

[lament thorn]

it's not complete 2d

[thick rain]

It just has a side switch

[lament thorn]

to dodge and such

but, that's 3d though

lol

[thick rain]

A shit side switch

[brave olive]

projectiles were sort of useless in 3d era lol

just sidestep it

[thick rain]

That's not what a 3d fighter is

[lament thorn]

yeah, shit compared to the next games, but still, kinda

[thick rain]

DoA, Tekken, and Soul Cal are 3d fighters

Mk4 just has a side switch

[brave olive]

I unironically want meat back

he's so mk worthy

[thick rain]

Beat my Meat

[brave olive]

his gory design

[lament thorn]

honestly, i don't even think 3d era was bad, was just so unbalanced and filled with bad designs overall lol

[brave olive]

like Sub-zero's deception alt 💀

[lament thorn]

but if they do the work they're doing right now, i would be interested to see mk in 3d again

[thick rain]

I don't think people really consider the 3d era bad

As that's objectively not true

Well maybe MK vs DC

[brave olive]

best game modes go to the 3D era games

i just hated puzzle kombat

[lament thorn]

lots of ppl say that, i see it constantly

[brave olive]

cus they suck

[thick rain]

Motor Kombat more like Goat Kombat

[brave olive]

fr

[lament thorn]

anyways, they said mk gonna stay 2d so..

[thick rain]

No complaints from me

I love 2d mk

I just want konquest back

[lament thorn]

i had more fun with 3d mk

[thick rain]

Gameplay wise 3d era was pretty flawed

[lament thorn]

i was never good at 2d except smash bros

[brave olive]

and chess kombat

[thick rain]

Specials were almost useless and you couldn't special cancel

[lament thorn]

yes

[thick rain]

It tried to be Tekken but without the cool shit you can do in Tekken

[lament thorn]

but i don't really care about competitive side, just fun side

since evo and fighting games became so strict with mechanics i feel everything is so toxic and unnecessarily complicated

like, can't fighting games be fun like the good ol times

[brave olive]

No 🗿

[lament thorn]

like soulcalibur II

[thick rain]

I miss SC

[lament thorn]

like tekken 3

when sc 7

i hope they put my boy lizardman / aeon in

[thick rain]

Hopefully after Tekken 8

Hope we get a Fighter Z but Naruto

[lament thorn]

hopefully we get naruto shippuden ultimate ninja storm but One Piece

burning blood exists

hopefully we get naruto shippuden ultimate ninja storm but One Piece well done

one piece mobile phone game exists

hopefully we get naruto shippuden ultimate ninja storm but One Piece well done no mobile phone plus infinity no paybacks (see what I did there)

[thick rain]

I'm only half way through the original series

Good so far

[lament thorn]

nice

only 500 episodes to go

[thick rain]

Yeah well I'm not watching filler

So about 30 or so left

[lament thorn]

caaap

one piece almost has no filler though, just massive stretching

like a 1 minute look

[thick rain]

Nah Naruto has more filler than Bleach

[dawn sparrow]

https://youtu.be/ofXubQ7ib2c

[brave olive]

is that Voldemort 🤣

[lament thorn]

i meant one piece, but i still agree with that argument

[thick rain]

It's true

[lament thorn]

homestly i'm tired on ermac's opinion

literally everyone shitting so much just so he can get a mask

when we absolutley know that is a story costume, and probably there's a purpose for him to be umasked, probably different origins as well

like, peopl should just chill a bit

like, story costumes are just costumes, some will be dumb and generic, and have things that ppl will not consider cool

but there's chance to make characters look more original

so ppl should just chill

no one complained when they saw Kuma from tekken with glasses on

lol

just have a little fun this not a contest for who has the best design

specially when the only thing this design looks "bad" is because he doesn't wear a mask

[brave olive]

tekken fans arent MK fans

[lament thorn]

which is the weakest argument for a design being bad that I have ever seen

[brave olive]

WE WANT OUR NINJAS TO HAVE MASKS

[lament thorn]

so a mask makes a design good or what

i don't

[brave olive]

also this is objectively Ermac's worse design

[lament thorn]

cuz ermac is clearly getting out of the ninja squad since, way back, he was a ninja, yes, way back then when characters were EXACTLY the same with different colour and specials

but now he is more of a sorcerer who has nothing to do with a ninja

[brave olive]

bruh

im not having this argument again ffs

[lament thorn]

no, just not gonna have "he needs a mask" for an argument

it's just so stupid

[brave olive]

no this is the problem

no one is a ninja besides scorpion

[lament thorn]

well, smoke is

bi han is

[brave olive]

what we mean by a ninja character is someone who is an OG palette swap

[brave olive]

no. the Lin Kuei arent ninjas

[lament thorn]

rain also became more of a sorcerer, which, kinda fits?

[brave olive]

this has been established in head canon many times 😐

[lament thorn]

they always were ninja like

[brave olive]

well he's a prince which is better this mk1 rain is drizzle

[lament thorn]

mkx, mk11

[brave olive]

that was the real Rain

[lament thorn]

he wears a hood

mostly sure people won't complain if he has a ponytail

[brave olive]

https://tenor.com/view/black-guy-poggers-poggers-pog-gif-22576295

[lament thorn]

but hey

bad design

[brave olive]

goes for mk1 ermac and rain

DONE

[lament thorn]

why? because he had ponytail so he has to have ponytail always

no

like, can we change a bit the characters sometimes? might as well just remaster the same game again and again lol

it's refreshing to see new looks on characters

in any game

mk is no different

[brave olive]

how about both

klassic looks

and new looks

https://tenor.com/view/smart-thinking-thoughts-think-ponder-gif-7713620

[lament thorn]

well, like they always do lol

with alt costumes

klassic looks look mid nowadays

[brave olive]

ok? people dont use klassic skins cus of how they look but rather for the nostalgia

[lament thorn]

ppl that saysi mk original scorpion outfit in mkx's was the best is cringe as fuck

cuz it just looks bad and out of the game even

but ppl have such a weird nostalgia with mk

they want their base outfit to look like always

not accepting any change no matter how the story goes

i don't know, this whole ermac scenario has been so toxic

even have friends who don't play mk and showed me a pic of ermac pointing out the hate because of how much of the shit talking has gone abroad

even joe biden knows ermac doesn't wear a mask

[brave olive]

Mac has in every past game

[lament thorn]

if it is nostalgia what they want, why not replay previous games, why not simply ask for alt costume instead of: " i don't like what you did becuase it's too bad because i am nostalgic so this character should look exactly like this one like why didn't you do that?" sounds like babycrying

and it actually doesn't benefit the game, hearing about so much hate about a simple factor that can be changed with a simple costume

and the worst thing of all

is that I actually ended up liking ermac without a mask

and I want him without it

so ppl can cry

i like "mortuary" ermac, let's call it like that, so for me the design is good, because he doesn't wear a mask, i think that is a valid argument

if having a mask is a valid argument that is

[dawn sparrow]

I'm honestly ok with the new Ermac

Not a big deal or anything

For me, it's like a 7

[lament thorn]

right, i didn't even think about it when I saw him, until i saw the first video that showed hate to it

never thought it would be such a problem

probably the creators of the character, who approved of the design, surely know better enough to give the character they created the appearance they want

[thick rain]

I don't really care if Ermac has a mask or not

I do care that he's butt ugly though

Reptile doesn't wear one and he cool

[dawn sparrow]

I think Ermac is suppose to be this mysterious magical wizard of some sorts

[sudden geode]

Ermac should be faceless n just spirits

Not some Martian man hunter cosplayer

[sour lily]

monkey’s paw wish or something

Ermac is now a little more like Slenderman. Faceless and has invisible arms coming out of his back, replacing his telekinesis.

[toxic delta]

Ermac is a confident b*tch

[tribal axle]

Y’all think Liu Kang is going to burn Raiden to death in this game, and then in MK3 he sacrifices himself to turn Raiden into Thunder God Raiden to beat Kronika?

[toxic delta]

Yeah complete the time loop

But no pls the old plot is dumb. Let's not have dumbass god Liu Kang like dumbass god Raiden

[native dock]

For people who already pre-ordered the game. Who's gonna be your main in this weekend?

[clever falcon]

Cage and Mae prob

Gamers when a literal corpse isn't hot

https://i.imgflip.com/41b60y.png?a469824

well reptiles hot

and he was a lizard

so

[dawn sierra]

So he has two forms so he can be a hot eboy and a lizard.

Whats the reason?

Keep engagement constant?

[dawn sparrow]

I guess kameos need posters too

It’s not about the necessity I wonder

But the time between each

[dawn sparrow]

Tomorrow

When I look at this Scorpion, I can still hear Patrick Seitz's scream as Scorpion

[dawn sparrow]

New secret Reptile bio

[brave olive]

whaaat

well i suspect it was Juan Cheese

that man just loves kill- uh i mean kidnapping families

[dawn sparrow]

Pretty interesting that he was a part of a circus

[dawn sparrow]

That shady figure is obviously Shang Tsung

[sudden geode]

one of? so who the other reptilian races

[dawn sparrow]

The Chameleons maybe?

[night vine]

fate unknown dead ass saying he doesnt know whos the 24th

what in the actual fuck jskdjasds

[thick rain]

I thought it was Sonya

[dawn sierra]

Maybe the 24th character is the friends we made along the road

[oak dawn]

Johnny: “How is a dream of my death funny, princess?”
Kitana: “I dreamt you suffocated under a pile of women.”

Took me tf out

Can’t wait for the game to release so I can hear all of Johnny’s dialogs

[toxic delta]

Turns out MK is indeed a dating sim

In Johnny's perspective lol

[brave olive]

Idk man could be Juan cheese

[brave olive]

Is this actually an intro dialogue

[dapper furnace]

Harem King Johnny Cage. Liu was looking out for him

[thick rain]

really good

i kinda wish that the dashes were further but nothing to complain about

[sudden geode]

This game needs modern controls for it to be good

[lament thorn]

they changed tea house stage theme

(I'm pretty sure he put that as his Twitter username as a joke)

[brave olive]

bruh what

is Liu Kang a demi-god?

[thick rain]

Yeah he says so apparently

Makes no sense

[native dock]

Here's some kameo fighters that I want for Kombat Pack 2:

• Smoke but in cyborg
• Shujinko
• Kabal

[thick rain]

Shujinko is base though 🤔

[thick rain]

its the OG MK theme

its glorious

[sudden geode]

hanzo is the playable character in one of the single player modes. source:

[lament thorn]

actually it could be jade

since it would have been insta buy for many people if she was going to be dlc

i'm starting to think it might be her, or a shokan

like kintaro

[lament thorn]

hmm, what round

because it changes a bit every round and haven't heard it fully

it did sounded like that first mk stage theme

but felt that the rest was a bit generic, fitting to the envinronment, sure

but while it fits, didn't really stick with me unlike the previous one of the stress test

that one felt darker and cool

this is more happy chinese mk vibes

maybe they changed it for the night version only in the full game, i hope so

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DXh2p6eFKFs&ab_channel=Gvoltex03

[thick rain]

First ye

[lament thorn]

oh yesss, the theme is set for the night version

good

this means there is going to be a lot of tracks in this game

[thick rain]

The night theme is beautiful

[lament thorn]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=94n3h4nCBdk&list=PLNJZ_2XtY314QB9yr7ABNETJn6Bo42f3p&index=3

i think this one may be in the game in one of the stages we saw

night version probably

[thick rain]

Man that first second always gets me so hyped then I realize it's just the courtyard

[dawn sparrow]

https://vxtwitter.com/RealmKast/status/1692918103494046047?t=fKF__dzM1nYnRsGTdpiVMQ&s=19

[oak dawn]

Oh ok so they’ve changed it back now for the open beta.

He shoves them into a freeze again. He would do a gut-punch in one of the trailers. I assumed they changed it to the punch, not from.

[oak dawn]

Alan Lee is getting his SOUL SUCKED

You guys think NRS are gonna nerf damage in MK1? Like I’m just watching a video here and this Li Mei did 37% meterless with a jumping punch starter

And friggin Ninjakilla was in the stress test hitting 55% Liu Kang combos

[dawn sparrow]

I was hoping Shang would be voiced by Chin Han in this

[oak dawn]

I hope he gets a premier skin where Cary-Hiroyuki Tagawa voices him again. He is the definitive Shang Tsung.

[dawn sparrow]

If he's up for it

I've known some of this for a while but couldn't verify them. I also saw them before but couldn't tweet about it. However, now the pics came from someone else so I can re-share them, but I cannot validate them YET.

He posted the leak

Idk if I wanna see

It’s in the replies

[thick rain]

Oh that leaks fake

If it's the same leak than that makes me think the other leak is fake too

[runic parcel]

We allowed leaks right?

Cyber Smoke lmaooo

Why

[runic parcel]

It's pretty real ngl

[thick rain]

That leak is not real

[runic parcel]

Cyber Smoke

[thick rain]

Kronika fused Geras? You think that's real?

[runic parcel]

Cyber Smoke was hinted at heavily pre-MK1 revival

Like I remember seeing that constantly in speculation videos

I thought maybe kameo but it might be a main roster thing

Shujinko was already hinted at, Motaro is probably it.

[tribal axle]

Is Centurion a misspell for Cetrion?

[thick rain]

It makes no sense for Meat to be a super unlockable

[thick rain]

Leaks fake

[runic parcel]

How do you know lmao

[runic parcel]

Meat was in one of ed boon's tweets

as a yes or no

[brave olive]

[thick rain]

Meat is so secret that even our best leakers don't know who it is?

I'm sorry that's dumb lol

Our secret character is also someone nobody knows but this guy happens to know everything about the game?

[lament thorn]

yesss, i knew it was young shujin POG

[thick rain]

The Kameo could be legit since we know of multiple people who have access to the Kameo pics but that 4chan leak is shit

[runic parcel]

Most leakers haven't gotten any kameos

On those models look like... NRS levels of detail

[thick rain]

Man I've been following these leaks since day 1

Bac has had access for literal months

[runic parcel]

And unlike most other fanbases like Sonic and shit, most fan models in the MK community aren't good at all

MK is like the most casual, least hyperfixated fanbase in the world, there isn't a lot of creatives compared to shit like Sonic, or any Valve games

[thick rain]

All it takes is for him to send them to one person and boom spread

I'm positive the written stuff is a throw off for the kameos

[runic parcel]

Listen:
A) The images look pretty real
B) Cyber Smoke was hyper focused by a dev before MK1 got announced (which got ignored pretty quick)
C) Meat was put as a Yes or No hint thing by Ed Boon
D) Shujinko looks like that "Who is this guy" character

We'll honestly see tho

[narrow jungle]

Li mei looks real fun in Maximilians gameplay

[thick rain]

And Thiny himself the 4chan leak is probably fake lol

Kameo leak is legit though

I really don't think Cyber smoke will be in

[runic parcel]

The text could be fake but we'll see

It'd be really stupid but again... Cyber Sub-Zero lol

[thick rain]

What's stupid about Cyber smoke or sub?

[runic parcel]

We already got Smoke on the roster

It's like a waste of roster slot lmao

[narrow jungle]

Not really he wouldn’t play the same as human smoke

[thick rain]

Yeah Cyber smoke id be 100% fine with

Base roster is exactly where you put this kind of characters

Not dlc

Though it's def not Cyber smoke

[runic parcel]

Yeah but I'd rather Jade, Sonya or another character get it then Cyber Smoke yk

[thick rain]

I'd rather Cyber Smoke then both of them

We have Sonya in every damn game we don't need her again

[narrow jungle]

Tbh It makes sense for it to be cyber smoke

[thick rain]

Same guy is saying that Hanzo is Bi hans dad that becomes Noob and that Tremor is Lin Kuei

[narrow jungle]

There’s always a cyber unlocksble

[thick rain]

Dudes full of shit

[narrow jungle]

Cyber sub zero mk9 & x
Cyber frost Mk 11

[thick rain]

Tbf x it was dlc

[runic parcel]

I'd argue the same, but Smoke is a repeat roster character lmao

[mild bramble]

I don't think so. When people lie they usually create big lies, not random stuff like him. He just says the smallest bits about Reptile, Geras, Mileena, Tanya, Takeda.

[thick rain]

Wut

[runic parcel]

Like I don't want the MK1 - MK2 roster in every game but I'd rather have Sonya then two Smoke's yk

[thick rain]

He has said secret character, secret Kameo, end game tease, final boss, and side boss lol

[mild bramble]

I'd rather have very rarely used characters than either Sonya and a cyber

[runic parcel]

Like out of all the cyborgs, you make 2 (3 if you count Frost) Kameos and you make Smoke (who's already on the roster) a Cyborg roster character

Why not just make a Cyber-Smoke skin? Ala MK9 Cyrax and Sektor

[thick rain]

So MKX was bad because we had Sub and Cyber Sub?

[runic parcel]

Cyber Sub-Zero was the 4th variant in a DLC roster that wasn't promised

Cyber Smoke is taking a roster slot lmao

[thick rain]

Moving the goal post

Making him dlc is worse than a base roster addition

[mild bramble]

MKX was bad cause of kombat kids and Cassie beating Shinnok and SF focus

[runic parcel]

No? There is a difference between a 4th variation that doesn't take much dev time (also the game doesn't have 4 variations outside of the character)

[thick rain]

Mk9 then

[runic parcel]

Then Cyber Smoke taking a base roster slot

[runic parcel]

Didn't like that either

[thick rain]

Our biggest base roster besides MKA

[runic parcel]

Although, at least MK9 had all the MK Trilogy characters + Quan Chi

Still don't like him but there's that and there's Cyber Smoke lmao

[thick rain]

Didn't have all

Truthfully not even sure why we are arguing this Cyber Smoke isn't the last slot

[native dock]

story spoilers apparently

||Kronika and Geras|| are the final boss

||bi-han immediately dies in the game lmao||

and ||smoke becomes cyber smoke||

all story spoilers

btw

maybe fake but it leaked with pictures so

maybe real too

[thick rain]

Def fake btw

He mentions how Jade in the story which R000r has said she's not

[native dock]

are we looking at the same leak because this guy said nothing about Jade

[brave olive]

GUYS story mode leaks
||deez nuts will be on your chin||
||Smoke gets killed by Bi-Han and this fuels the divide between Kuai and Bi-Han||
||Rain gave Milleena Tarkat||
||Final Boss: Mokap||

||Smoke becomes Noob||
||Source: I made it the fuck up||

[sudden geode]

Apparently the last slot is cyber scorpion.

[brave olive]

https://tenor.com/view/black-guy-poggers-poggers-pog-gif-22576295

[thick rain]

Yes

[sudden geode]

Makes sense because the original had cyber smoke. The 2nd timeline had cyber subzero. Third timeline is cyber scorpion.

[thick rain]

He went on a spree of story leaks in the comments of that post

[sudden geode]

If hanzo was scorpion he’d never allow cyber scorpion to happen

im not playing the beta anymore because i retired from grinding fighting games. all this game needs is modern controls and itd be the best nrs game

[brave olive]

Chad Hanzo > Virgin Kuai

[sudden geode]

cyborg scorpion leaked in smite

[dawn sierra]

I don't mind doing Cyber X

But can't Cyber X be a character that's not already on the roster like Frost in 11?

I legit prefered the "reimagined Hanzo is last spot" idea

[humble shale]

Well. I was not expecting big story leaks on an early Sunday morning of all days lol

Wtf is this games timeline 🥴

[dawn sierra]

Sindel is apparently good again

And Jade might actually have a role on story?

We shall see

Role doesn't mean "appearing"

[thick rain]

It's fake

R000r said Jade isn't in the story and here it says she is

[humble shale]

I think it’s more of a mention, if jade was actually apart of the story with like an actual model Jade army would be obnoxious by now. The leaks said she has a mention pretty much lol

[thick rain]

That in the recent Kast they said that Smoke has some cyber smoke movement and that wouldn't make sense if Cyber smoke is playable

[mild bramble]

Actually he could be wrong about that final roster spot but the story leaks are legit imo

[thick rain]

You mean the leaks that said a Japanese man is the father of 2 Chinese kids

Makes sense

[dawn sierra]

The mother could be chinese

[mild bramble]

You think NRS wouldn't screw up?

[dawn sierra]

And the previous lin kuei had a czech twink in their ranks

[thick rain]

Your basis on this is "sounds like something NRS would do" which it isn't

[dawn sierra]

So it's not like they are very nationality limited

[mild bramble]

Also photos

[thick rain]

Again the photos are legit

Doesn't mean the story leaks are

[mild bramble]

Doesn't. But it's probable

[thick rain]

It's not

[dawn sierra]

Ultimately neither you or us know shit. So we cannot just say ITS FAKE

Nor say it's true

[mild bramble]

I feel that if he was gonna lie he would have come up with smtg else

[thick rain]

TheThiny said that the only showed because the Kameo list was shown to him before and even said the story stuff is probably fake

[dawn sierra]

Wish they had leaked Sindel tho like omg

We deserve

[thick rain]

What's more likely is they got a pic of the Kameo leak and made up a bunch of story shit to cover up the Kameo leak

[mild bramble]

Why would someone fake simple story stuff like that?

It's just....meh

[humble shale]

If the leak is real, poor Sindel man just can’t catch a break, alive and good, dies and resurrected bad then turns good? Oof

They like to toy with the Sindel lore fans lol

[thick rain]

Also let's say that we do follow this leak

Wouldn't it make more sense that the unlockable character is Noob and not Cyber Smoke?

Since you fight him in the story

[mild bramble]

Yeah, but they would be saving him for DLC $$

Also, he might be mistaken about Cyber Smoke and he could be the 16th kameo.

But then again...he claims the kameo is Meat

[humble shale]

This leak is so bad and bonkers it’s probably true lmao

[mild bramble]

We know other 15, so if it is Meat, then Cyber Smoke can't be kameo

And he was leaked by Diamond Vision, so he must be in somewhere

@thick rain Have you heard the 24th is someone else?

[humble shale]

Geras kinda does make sense being bad at the end since that could’ve been Liu Kang’s threat he’s never anticipated

[mild bramble]

I don't think it's that BAD. I don't trust NRS to wrote smtg good either +they never did so far), but I am waiting to see it. The freshness of this game comes from using characters like Reiko, Ashrah, Nitara, Li Mei, Havik and it COULD make a great story, especially with the Deadly Alliance comjng back and trying to resurrect Onaga. We're basically going into 3D era lore territory with the Battle of Armageddon happening too.

[thick rain]

Other than Cyber Smoke?

[mild bramble]

Yeah, you said above we know it's not him for sure

[thick rain]

The only reason people think Cyber sub is because diamondvision said he was playtested

He didn't say if it was a Kameo, playable, or skin

[mild bramble]

He didn't, but this guy who has the kameo photos says it's Meat. So no room for Cyber Smoke cause we know the other 15 kameos

[thick rain]

Hear me out on this

There is a leak so hidden that all 3 of our biggest leakers don't know who it is

And you're gonna tell me it's meat?

[brave olive]

https://tenor.com/view/yeah-bwoi-grin-chef-gif-18525191

[thick rain]

For example the other person we know for a fact who has this Kameo leak has said that the last slot for playable and Kameo are hidden and then don't know who they are

And this guy who has the same leak somehow does?

It just doesn't make sense to me

[mild bramble]

If he has a Meat photo, would you believe?

[thick rain]

I think the other guy leaked the same pics to this dude and they leaked the pic and made up a bunch of story stuff

Maybe idk

[humble shale]

“Know anything about Nitara?” “she’s very cool” well I’m sold. 🤣

[mild bramble]

That statement would work better for Sub-Zero

[sudden geode]

nitara's gonna be playing with 150% health in good hands

her healing is INSANE

[humble shale]

Hopefully she get revealed Tuesday I just need to see her. It’s crazy we potentially got more leaks today and still no pic of Nitara 😩

[brave olive]

whoa

was there reveal?

[sudden geode]

not yet

[oak dawn]

Havik feels like a LEGO person but made of actual flesh.

How he detaches his limbs so casually and sticks them back on.

[sudden geode]

Really hope he plays silly

like the old version did

[brave olive]

he can change hairstyles too but plopping it off and putting another back on

[sudden geode]

i most likely will play kenshi but i might try nitara and havik too and see which one i like most gameplay wise

will need to learn someone else once nrs inevitably nerfs kenshi to the ground

[thick rain]

Wait it's Tuesday or Thursday?

[sudden geode]

thought it was 4 tuesday

google says gamescom is on a wednesday tho

[thick rain]

It's multiple days

[sudden geode]

we thinking its gonna be shao, sindel, n nitara reveal?

or reiko? idek if they will reveal all 4

[humble shale]

The reveal is opening day Tuesday thank god

It will be at 1pm cst

Well when the game trailers start idk the exact time for mk1

[thick rain]

Damn was thinking Thursday for some reason

[humble shale]

At least it’s the 22nd and not the 27th

So glad they’re doing opening day and not closing like they did with evo. That was horrible lol

[humble shale]

Was this confirmed somewhere or are you just speculating?

[sudden geode]

If Kronika returns, i hope she has a more avant garde design

https://sjc1.vultrobjects.com/cucdn/gallery-37/art/mk11-kronika-concept-art.jpg

[thick rain]

People are eating it up lol

[lime mica]

#5 is sick

[narrow jungle]

Kronika will never be in Mk again

I’ll make sure of it

[dawn sierra]

Should have been her post "I ate Cetrion" form

[narrow jungle]

[dawn sierra]

I wouldn't mind her

Although I'd prefer someone else

[narrow jungle]

Worst Mk villain

[dawn sierra]

Is she really?

Are the others that good?

[thick rain]

Also someone asked r000r if the new villain is as powerful as Kronika and he said lore wise he's not sure

So if the villain was Kronika I'm sure we would have known lmao

[dawn sierra]

To be fair, if it's a Kronika infused Geras that statement would still hold true

I really dunno what to think about this "leak"

But until we get something else, we might as well discuss it

[thick rain]

It's fake

No need to think about it

[dawn sierra]

Oh lets talk about Homelander being a reductive Superman ripoff then

What a shame NRS is tied with WB

A Scarlet Witch guest character >>>>>>>>> the two superman guys

[thick rain]

Let's not talk about that

[thick rain]

This is trying to talk to you about guest

[dawn sierra]

The fatality and brutality potential

Ugh

She would mother so hard

[lament thorn]

technically thanks to her history has been reset and no kombat kids

so we actually have to thank kronika for that

[narrow jungle]

True, Mk characters aren’t old anymore

[thick rain]

Besides Shujinko

[tribal axle]

He’ll be born by chapter one, become an elder by the final chapter, and no other character is going to acknowledge any of it

[toxic delta]

No. The other villains are hardly phenomenal but it's just nostalgia

[sudden geode]

tier list of mk1 beta: #1 kenshi

its not even close

[dawn sparrow]

https://vxtwitter.com/RealmKast/status/1693280483805667411?t=ZgHrF4pwEX9db65HVeaUiw&s=19

[oak dawn]

Oh that’s interesting

So Li Mei is voiced by Kelly Hu, who also voiced D’Vorah in the earlier games.

I like seeing the range that voice actors can cover. It’s a nice show of talent.

Kelly Hu can sound like an insufferable bug bitch, and a badass Outworld policewoman.

[dawn sparrow]

And Scorpion is being voiced by Jin Sakai from Ghost of Tsushina

[dawn sierra]

Mte.

[dawn sierra]

I'm so glad she is indeed Li Mei instead Nitara. It feels like such a fitting cast

[humble shale]

Only two reveals and 2 kameos at Gamescom

My guess would be Nitara and Reiko with kameos motaro and Shujinko.

They will save Shao and Sindel for last most likely

[dawn sparrow]

Probably

[dawn sparrow]

That's what they said?

[humble shale]

Yeah Ed tweeted 2 reveal 2 kameos

[dawn sparrow]

Oh ok

Then that means we'll have three main fighters and one kameo left

Place your bets everyone

Who's it going to be on Tuesday?

[toxic delta]

Nitara, Shao, Sindel

Shujinko

[dawn sparrow]

I'm still hoping we get Meat and Mokap as kaneos

[toxic delta]

Hopefully as dlc

But unlikely as main

[humble shale]

Well…

Think that kinda puts the nail in the coffin lol

Apparently cyber smoke is the last playable character but the only pic (above) was when they tested the look out on smoke’s human skin

So idk to me just looking at that it just looks like a skin for smoke, but apparently it’s how cyber smoke will look but the stance will be different for the final build of his character

[thick rain]

thats gotta be fake xD

looks so out of place

reason i call BS is cus of the face looking more high quality but besides that sheesh idk

someone is saying cyber smoke is the 24th but they used OG smoke as a base

[humble shale]

All these leaks and still no Nitara pic 😩😩😩

[thick rain]

idk im mixed on this news

happy cus cyber smoke is dope asf

sad because this kinda confirms the plot leak and that cyber smoke is a different character and not a skin

[humble shale]

I’m just confused and don’t know what to believe anymore 🥴

[thick rain]

also it just says smoke which is weird

personally im on team skin but who knows at this point

[humble shale]

It could go either way his statement could be true and they used human smoke as the base model in an earlier build. Or leakers saw this pic and assumed cyber smoke was his own slot when it’s really only a skin for smoke

[thick rain]

i think they saw this pic and thought playable

[humble shale]

Going just off this image I agree

[narrow jungle]

Idk I don’t want cyber smoke to have the knife gameplay

Still some buff movement requests

[thick rain]

they might but i dont see them doing it

[humble shale]

Movement feels good, do people still think it’s slow??

[thick rain]

they want mk9 speed

i wouldnt complain though

i just wish dashes were more further than they are

[humble shale]

Looking at this image the knife hilt is purple I think this is only a skin. Why would they change the color of the knife just for cyber smoke’s early build character

[thick rain]

i think the leak is legit but i think its just a skin

literally makes no sense to make Smoke the base model

Yeah I’m going with it’s only a skin

It’s a dope skin but don’t think it’s for a playable character

[thick rain]

none of his specials or animations work with Cyber Smoke if he was playable

[humble shale]

What if the final character slot is the Geras/Kronika fusion character lol

[thick rain]

then give me Cyber Smoke lol

[humble shale]

Kronika was never playable in mk11 and it seemed a lot assumed she would’ve been. If she’s back for timeline shenanigans maybe she’s who you unlock at the end of story mode

Lmaoo

[thick rain]

personally im not that upset over Cyber Smoke being 24

[humble shale]

As long as he plays 100% differently than smoke

[thick rain]

honestly this leak makes me think Skin

and if so im really wondering who 24 is

[humble shale]

Yeah I think it’s a skin also. Devs don’t usually take a different character base model to test another entirely different character lol

I think 24 will be a genuine shock because it seems nobody knows who it is at all. Which makes me feel like it has to have a story tie in for them

[thick rain]

only reason i think it could be playable is because the Smoke we have has nothing the mk9 and x smoke does

so its a way to have that in the game as well

[humble shale]

Usually when you beat a mk game you unlock the boss

[thick rain]

well we know that Havik is the story unlock of mk1

so most likely the 24th slot is from Invasions

[humble shale]

There’s also that leak probably fake saying noob saibot is hanzo this new era

[thick rain]

if this is a skin then that deconfirms that leak atleast

issue i do have if this is a skin

its a super lazy skin

even for a skin cyber smoke should not have a knife

[humble shale]

A skin wouldn’t change how the character plays though so if it’s just a skin the knife would have to be included since it’s a part of smoke gameplay

[thick rain]

eh MK9 completely changed them

they even had different frame data

atleast make it a cyberish styled knife

[humble shale]

And now the internet starts their fun lmao

Cyber reptile!! 🤯🤣

[dapper furnace]

From MK9!

[humble shale]

This roster has EVERYBODY! 🫡

[humble shale]

Yeah the slowdown is weird to begin with completely unnecessary

[thick rain]

so if you notice Smoke doesnt have a kameo

weird

[ornate geode]

Guys, I'm out of loop. How accurate is the recent 4Chan leak?

[thick rain]

it feels like the images are real but not the story stuff

[ornate geode]

So like, a reliable leaker came forward to debunk the details?

[thick rain]

just dont fit with what other known leakers are saying

[ornate geode]

Such as? Not trying to be snarky, I'm genuinely confused.
A lot of the leak did align with the leaks I have seen, such as the pyramid stuff.
Jade thing is a huge discrepancy but anything else?

[thick rain]

the pyramid stuff was so old its hard to say that its proof as they could have just seen the leaks

but the biggest thing is that Smoke is a skin and not playable

[ornate geode]

Could the leak be only partially true? Accurate story info + madeup nonsense?
And the thing about 6-character choice? Is that real?

[thick rain]

idk the leaker who leaked the Smoke pic said that the other story leaks are bullshit

its really a ground of who knows

[ornate geode]

Where can I see their info? Also isn't it the same guy who said Cyber. S is a seperate fighter not a skin?

[thick rain]

no its not

[ornate geode]

Where did they say it? Did they reveal anything else?

[thick rain]

no

and somewhere on 4chan idk exactly where

[ornate geode]

This is all so damning lol.

[thick rain]

yeah but he hasnt said much in a long while

[ornate geode]

Something else that confused me about that leak is Ermac. 4chan dude said he's stranded from other timelines in the climax. But then said Ermac kills Tanya earlier?

Another thing that's weird is Tremor. His subplot feels so random.

[thick rain]

i think Tremor was always Lin Kuei

[lime mica]

This the fakest shit I've ever seen, what?

[humble shale]

That would be a damn good fake lol

[thick rain]

thats 100% not fake lol

[ornate geode]

But then the guy said he was formerly BD and that made the Lin Kuei mad? Feels in line with the Kenshi intro on Kuai Liang distrusting the BD tho. So idk.
Still, Tremor feels random.

[thick rain]

he was a double agent

he was lin Kuei who is secretly working with the BD

[lime mica]

Considering the stance
