I liked playing Reiko in Armageddon and he is doing great in the comics, however I don't think that's enough to conquer what Shang is to the series. Shang has been where Reiko is now, fulfilled that potential, and still has more to go. I honestly find his absence in MKX to be interesting. What exactly is he up to now? You shouldn't keep your eyes off a snake.

I do want Reiko to appear again as a whole interesting and fun character, but right now he's just had pieces of that and Shang has been the whole package for awhile.

Both should return in MK11.

I voted for Shang. I liked Reiko, but I didn't care too much for him untill recently while I've always liked Shang Tsung. I love sorcerer characters, it's never a dull day with them because they're always up to something.

Also I love the buthurt going on here.

Tanya fans think because they're the loudest and most obnoxious they somehow represent a large contingent of the fanbase. I've never seen a more miserable group in all of MK.

"WalletSwap" sets up a strawman argument that Fujin hasn't been playable since MKA as to why he's not worthy and "Giggles" follows that up this gem: "Fujin hasn't had a decent playable appearance since his debut. Yet he's "so much better" smh." I wish more people would think before they typed.

Tanya couldn't be any more generic if she tried. She's essentially a palette swap...another dark hair, "ninja" girl. Yellow in this case (with Jade, Kitana, Li Mei, and Mileena, filing out the rest of the spectrum. Scarlet too if we're ignoring hair color). I get her confused with Li Mei more oft than not.



I don't know if there's a so called "Tanya fans" group collectively think they are so great or whatever, but the miserable thing is that "forgettable" character hit so many people's nerves that everytime i see a post favors Tanya, another one follows telling how anybody dare to like her with an article full of "butthurt" you say? Any character may be someone's favorite, get over it.
I personally think matching a character playable at ages ago with MKX ones is unfair, more unfair is choosing former one because he/she has "potential". Let's see him/her first huh? Same applies to Tanya-Tremor match which we didn't see how latter one plays yet.
If being generic pallette swaps applies to male ninjas, well tongue

A majority of a fan base can behave a certain way. From what I've seen from this topic no one has reacted with irritation the way some Tanya fans did when they saw that Fujin was pwning her on the vote polls. So yeah, there was some butthurt going on. Fujin fans simply jumped in to defend themselves after a few post of Fujin and Fujin fan dissing.

Fujin's quality as a character hardly has anything to do with how many games he has been playable in. (That's why Kotal almost beat Shao and Erron beat Sonya.) He is simply more interesting to more people. Concept, design, and yes potential, it all plays a factor.



People gave their opinion on Fujin or Tanya. They're fictional characters. I think they can take it. Also, I did not see a single post where people attacked or dissed you or any fan for liking Fujin. On the other hand, I was called a miserable person merely for liking Tanya. So I'm gonna go ahead and call bs on that...

He/She edited it, but someone said that mko fans were delusional for voting for Fujin so yeah we were insulted. .

Reiko is prosaic. His design is trite and his backstory is nominal. Overall he is an unnecessary character who has had no relevence in the games. Utterly worthless, and I am glad he is not in MKX. The one spoken dialogue where his name is mentioned is more than enough.

Shang Tsung gets my vote, even though I have never cared for him much, if at all.

Fujin really hasn't done much story wise. I mean can anyone here tell me who is character really is? He's a wind God. That's about it.

I still want him to be DLC or in MK11, but Tayna is a more complete character at the moment.


He would be so much more if Boon actually did his job and gave the fans further development on him.

Having untapped potential doesn't make someone a better character over someone who has met and still has potential.

Netherrealm revenants engaged in rivalries from a past life! Smoke was once a Lin Kuei warrior who turned against his masters to defend the Earthrealm of his own volition. He paid for his life in the final battle against Sindel! The sonic screaming Queen was fighting under the spell of Shao Kahn - conqueror of realms who merged Sindel's realm of Edenia with Outworld, and resurrected her post-suicide as an instrument of destruction that decimated Earth's heroes! Smoke & Sindel may be revenants under Quan Chi's power - but their old hatreds still burn within. Who wins the Round 2 grudge match? Choose their destiny!... FIGHT!

I love them both but let's be honest if this is a real battle Sindel can easily defeat Smoke singlehandedly as she did Jax,Sub-Zero,Kitana,Kabal and the others who had fallen during the last stand in earthrealm.I vote for Sindel even though I love Smoke,too.

Smoke. I never cared much for Sindel and I absolutely loved the redesign Smoke got in MK9 with his long hair. It was fabulous.

Even though I didn't like him in MK9, I still had to go Smoke, he has been one of my favorites for a long time. Love Sindel too though.
