I voted Reiko. There's just something so irresistable about him. Like if he was real, he'd probably smash my skull in with a hammer, but at least he'd look good doing it.

Plus he does have a nice ass.

Shao Kahn is much more Iconic and important to the MK Universe but I'm voting for Reiko based on how much fun I had with him in MKA, hes probably the most enjoyable character to play as and I hope he returns.

Reiko.

I am weary of Shao Kahn. While he IS THE BOSS OF MORTAL KOMBAT, I think he was overused in the last years. His death in MKDA was a perfect and epic sendoff for the character and his return in MKD was half-assed. In MK9 he was remade into brutal warlord, without much of intelligence. One of the few things that always made Shao Kahn stand out from the crowd of brutal and evil warlords is that he was portrayed as not only super strong, but also as very smart and creative mastermind. In MK9 he is just brutal warlord with hammer.

Reiko, on the other hand, is very underused, however, practically in each his appearance it was hinted that there is more to him, than meets the eye. Who is he? Why he hates Quan Chi? What is his connection with Sareena (if any)? Is he Shao Kahn's son or just a creepy stalker? Anyway, he comes as brutal and meanwhile intelligent and well-manered villain. A rare treat in MK.

So, overal I vote for Reiko. I am tired of Shao Kahn and I really hope that Reiko will be given siginificant role in the next game.

In Sindel's case, that's exactly what it is. Her background story provides her with many different paths to follow after she is freed from Shao Kahn, or even if she stays evil.
The main problem with Sindel, is that there is always someone who could feel any given role much better. Kitana is better as ruler of the Edenia, Kahn is better as the main villain. I doesn't exclude possibility that Sindel could be given a new and interesting role in the future, but I think that there is many other characters that could fit certain roles better and Sindel once again will be relagated to the background character without much of the use.

Shao Kahn, although Iconic and and an epic villain, has never been a huge favourite of mine.

Ive had some interest in Reiko since MK4 since it was hinted at that he had some sort of connection with Sareena. Something I really wish they would develop....but then again, Reiko needs developed just generally in all areas. he got a good new look in MKA though.

So am gonna go with Reiko.

I must say thought, I though Shao Kahn was gonna walk this one like 80%+.

Had Sindel not have died, and reverted back to her good self, I would have wanted her to become an Elder God, with Kitana taking her place as queen.

I think that suits Sindel perfectly.

Why would Sindel ever be chosen to become an Elder God? She hasn't done anything to deserve it.

Not all who vote post in this thread what they voted for.
Or maybe the competition is so rigged that the mods make sure the ones they want to win will get more votes.
OR people are actually making extra users just to vote on their chosen characters.

Yeah, you're right.

Still, the possibilities are there, and while she could definitely be overshadowed by other characters, it doesn't mean that her role is definitely going to be worse than someone else. You never know what they might think of. If you ask me, Kitana is a terrible ruler of Edenia and has much less purpose in the series than Sindel, and Kahn is the tired villain who needs to be replaced in a series that has never had a main female villain.

She'd be like the constellation Cancer. Yes, the crab tried to stop the slaughter of all his animal friends, but alas, poor crab was stepped on and killed. In honor of his sacrifice, he was made a constellation! grin

The constellations aren't Elder Gods though.
