He's...he's beautiful.

The Super Roundhouse.
The Mind Control Bubble
The jet stream kick to the jaw move
The Lightning Shock
The intro
The old winpose
The cool Fatalitys
The painful X-Ray

Rain is.....reborn


Glad to see he's the juggle king once again.

HAIL TO THE PRINCE BABY!

THE AWESOME:

- super roundhouse kick
- water bubble special move
- lightning bolt
- win pose (epic!)


THE BAD:

- mute
- some moves look unoriginal
- water sword in one of his fatalities



OVERALL: not impressive, but I still like it.

Oh man, I can't wait for people to spam him and smoke online. MK will be sooooo much fun after july 19th.

He's look good, but I was excited more for kenshi.

I like fast, speed and juggling.


Rain may replace Smoke as my main. Smoke will become #2 in my list of mains.

The only thing I dislike about Rain is his mask, or veil. I don't like it one bit. I would have preferred a mask with a unique design just like SZ/Scorpion. When I saw his render, I actually thought it was a mask like that. Oh well.


This. Rain looks badass, but the veil is lame and his entrance seemed a little awkward.

Gameplay wise I'm extremely interested to see how viable he really is. Too bad my xbox live account doesn't work when it comes to buying content. Fucking lame as hell.

Even Trilogy was smart enough to "disallow" such a combo (though there are infamous infinites involving Rain, no doubt).

I'm sure his moves become disabled after a certain number of hits, much like Trilogy. He may have a way of "resetting" that, though, as some characters have.

But given Rain's infamy over his MKT infinites,
I'm betting they checked him *extra* hard this time wink

I fail to see this copy paste thing everyone is talking about, just because a move looks similar does not make it the same move. Case and point Skarletts blood ball (remeber all that bitching over a move that didnt end up being copy and paste)

The noob teleport = A grab (totally diffrent)

Nightwolfs lightning = used to juggle (looks quicker)

I see two moves, both of which are NOT copy and paste (i gesse we will find out when he comes out)

Btw im not a rain fanatic defending his fave, im just stating what i see

Rain had the Lightning Bolt popup before Nightwolf.
Thank God Nightwolf's is only a popup as the EX version in MK9,
leaving Rain's much as it has always been.
(though Rain's is probably blockable, unlike Nightwolf's... but I'm fine with that differentiation).

EDIT: And please, DON'T devolve this thread into yet ANOTHER pro-gay, anti-gay argument thread. MKO has *plenty* of those.
We only have one "official" Rain reveal post sad

It's his win pose from MKT.
They're going for nostalgia, not homoeroticism...I assure you.

Are you fuckin serious?
The pose is easily the best in the game. Its like an orgasm for my eyes.
If anything (IMO) the intro could've been better.

If you don't like the win pose then you obviously never played MKT

I have always wanted to see that pose brought back I loved it when I kicked someones ass with Rain or Reptile and they did that win pose I would literally do it myself I loved it so much

So glad they brought it back..
