Sub Zero one of my favorites since forever. Never really liked Johnny but in this game he is one of those that surprised me. Really fun to play. Still going with the Iceman though.

Johnny Cage is just too badass.

It was good Sub-Zero is more active in mk11 story than mkx. I think hes really good in this game. The 2 Johnnys was fun but it gets played out pretty quick.

TOURNAMENT BATTLE - ROUND 3:
Sheeva versus Jade
#44 Supreme Ranking #20
4 wins 6 losses Record 11 wins 7 losses
Round 3 (2017) Best Result Quarters (2014)

Sheeva was not easily convinced to join the battle against Kronika and her ally Shao Kahn. Once the Queen agreed to assist Kotal Kahn and his allies, the Shokan Empire helped time the balance for at least a moment in time. The living Jade chose to assist Outworld's new ruler out of love, even as her revenant persisted in favour of the Netherrealm and the end of all things. To begin with certainty was to end in uncertainty and vice versa. Choose their destiny! FIGHT!

Love Sheeva and hope she'll be great DLC, but Jade is seriously impressive in this game for a character I've never liked before. Also she's PLAYABLE

I'll root for the underdog this time, voting for Sheeva.

Seeing Sheeva in story mode was nice but Jade was even better and is more than a butt.

TOURNAMENT BATTLE - ROUND 3:
Reptile versus Geras
#21 Supreme Ranking #NA
9 wins 7 losses Record 2 wins 0 losses
Round 3 (2015) Best Result Round 3 (2019)

Long ago Reptile was once one of a population of denizens of the realm of Zaterra. The apparent lone survivor faded from sight after the Outworld civil war, last seen lurking the Krypt of Shang Tsung's island. Geras was created as an agent of The Keeper of Time. He has watched over centuries, bearing eternal witness to key events of life and death throughout history. One's survival has led him to de-evolve, the other evolves to learn survival. Who's next? FIGHT!

Geras easily.

It has to be Geras. I want Reptile but he got shafted into the krypt. Geras has nice moves and brings something a bit different to mk11.

TOURNAMENT BATTLE - ROUND 3:
Scorpion versus Noob Saibot
#12 Supreme Ranking #3
14 wins 7 losses Record 27 wins 6 losses
Semis (2013) Best Result Champion (2016)

With his demons slain Scorpion dedicates himself to a new life as Grandmaster of the Shirai Ryu clan. Finding peace with old rivals, the Lin Kuei, he joins the fight against Kronika's forces alongside Sub-Zero - but old rivalries die hard. Noob Saibot once answered to the name Sub-Zero, but became a blackened wraith of the Netherrealm when he was slain by his nemesis Scorpion. Emerging from obscurity, Noob now serves Kronika in exchange for power in the new era. Choose their destiny! FIGHT!

The longest and biggest rivalry in MK history. My vote doesn't go to Noob Saibot. It goes to Bi-Han.

Scorpion has been really good since MKX and I don't think Noob has been interesting in a very long time. In MKX he's just kind of there.

Scorpion could win this year.

Hate Scorpion, love Noob Saibot. No brainer here for me.

Scorpion looks and plays great, has a nice role in story, used the old/new contrast well.

Bi-Han was involved in a vendetta, died and came back from hell, double died in a soulnado and after missing mkx and we all wonder what crazy thing happened and how hell return... He just shows up. Doing more of the same. He's what demented fans claim to hate about Scorpion. And he looks kinda silly in mk11.

TOURNAMENT BATTLE - ROUND 3:
Kitana versus Shao Kahn
#4 Supreme Ranking #17
25 wins 7 losses Record 12 wins 6 losses
Runner-Up (2018) Best Result Quarters (2017)

Kitana was born rightful heir to the Edenian throne, but perished before it could be liberated from Outworld. In death, she claims the throne of Netherrealm instead, but with her younger self brought to the present, a living Kitana is granted rule over Outworld. Shao Kahn was the conquering emperor who claimed Edenia and forced Kitana to be raised as his daughter and assassin before his ultimate death. Plucked from the past by Kronika, Shao Kahn attempted to reclaim his throne from Kotal Kahn - but must first face Kitana! Choose their destiny! FIGHT!

The princess! Although it's a shame how they treat Shao Kahn in this game. In terms of his options, not the story. He is Shao Kahn damn it! He's supposed to be good, on Geras's level at least.

Kitana as the first female winner please.

I feel like they both missed a step in mk11 but theyre still good. I was more excited to see Shao Kahn. Kitana is not as convincing as she was in mkx.

My vote's for Kahn.

BUT WHICH?

TOURNAMENT BATTLE - ROUND 3:
Kotal Kahn versus Nightwolf
#13 Supreme Ranking #28
9 wins 4 losses Record 7 wins 7 losses
Quarters (2018) Best Result Round 3 (2018)

In his youth Kotal Kahn travelled to Earthrealm where he was worshipped as a god and protector by Mayans. As an adult he rose to claim the throne of Outworld after its conquering Emperor was destroyed. Nightwolf was once known as Grey Cloud and chosen by the Great Spirit to protect the Matoka. When Outworld's conquering emperor invaded Earthrealm, he gave his life to thwart the efforts of his deadliest agents. What happens when the new Emperor meets a returning Nightwolf? Choose their destiny! FIGHT!

Looking forward to Nightwolf, but Kotal Kahn easily takes this. Everyone's going to vote for Nightwolf but then he'll be released as DLC and people will go back to not caring very much about Nightwolf. I'd love to be proven wrong and hope he's amazing, but a sketch and a teaser image of a boot isn't enough to get me to vote for him over one of the best characters of the modern era.

I really do like nightwolf but kotal just seems stronger

Im looking forward to seeing Nightwolf but hes still an unknown. Kotal Kahn is here and is really good.

TOURNAMENT BATTLE - ROUND 3:
Shang Tsung versus Sonya Blade
#7 Supreme Ranking #15
21 wins 6 losses Record 14 wins 7 losses
Champion (2018) Best Result Quarters (2013)

Shang Tsung learned the dark arts from Shao Kahn himself in exchange for loyal servitude. As the Emperor's emissary in Earthrealm, the sorcerer helped corrupt the Shaolin tournament in Outworld's favour. Sonya Blade was an unexpected competitor at the Shaolin tournament, inducting her into a world of mysticism and intrigue. As General in the Special Forces, she continues to protect the world from the forces of Outworld and beyond. What happens when old enemies meet anew? Choose their destiny! FIGHT!
