Cassie Cage: The new Liu Kang?
Cassie Cage: The new Liu Kang?
I've been wondering who the inevitable protagonist was going to be in the game for a while now and, prior to the trailer release, I was leaning towards Kotal Kahn or Takeda because of the comic. However, after that badass new trailer I think it's Cassie and team Special Forces with Cassie leading the pack. What do you guys think?

Yup, she definitely seems like the leader of the MK Scooby Doo gang. I'm actually totally alright with it since she is my favorite new character so far. I like snarky, sarcastic characters and it seems like she's competent to boot. Within the context of MKX I think she's a good choice personally.

I think she will be one of the lead characters, but that kind of goes without saying.
I agree with you that it seems like she is going to be the Liu Kang of the Next Gen.
But I kind of have a feeling that this trailer showed us what the new characters are up to and left the old ones out.
I remember a guy pointed out a while back that this trailer showed a lot of NEW because all we have been seeing up till now is OLD.
So I do see where you are coming from but I think Liu Kang is going to be back and he will retain his place as the protagonist, However I also believe that Cassie is going to be one step below Liu Kang because she seems to be doing a lot of the work in MKX, from what we saw in the trailer.
She seems to be what her mother was, The leader of the special force group.

The sad part is this is Cassie's first game and she already has more personality than Liu.

I am actually not so sure about Cassie being new protagonist. Of course from the trailer we might get that impression,but I think Takeda is destined to take down new generation bad guys. Not because Cassie is incapable,she is the leader and coordinator of the group,but I think son of Kenshi and student of Scorpion is destined to do something big on MK main plotline stage,which both his father figures never seemed to be able to accomplish.
I am actually wondering if there is going to be some romantic relationship between our new generation guys. (Fuck everyone who says romance can't be a part of MK,it gives motivation and extra dimension to characters,ask Johnny and Sonya in this game)

I figured Cassie was going to be one of the main protagonists

Ha! This! When I first saw her in the comics, I was thinking "Wow... she hasn't dialed back the slutty level this much since MK2/MK3!" Even then she showed a lot of leg As for Cassie leading the way, why not? I initially figured Raiden would more or less be the protagonist again, as it was pretty much his story in MK9. But the way the story trailer was set up really puts a strong emphasis on her. Guess we'll find out next month. Holy crap, it *is* March now, isn't it?

They're both cliches, just different kinds, like everyone in Mortal Kombat.

I honestly can say that I 100% back Cassie going forward as one of the franchises heroes. If Jacqui, Takeda and Kung Jin step up the plate as much as she has, I'm all fucking for it. They can then just revolve the klassics in and out now and again as "wise masters" and all that other jazz and keep giving us good new characters like these.

i think Cassie is the new leader of the group, but I don't think she's the strongest and will be the next Liu Kang in terms of fighting. Leader isn't always the best, they are just the best at leading.

Just...that hairdo. >.< The shaved part, at least.
I liked "the bob" much much better.
I personally hope she's not, but if so, ain't much I can do about it.

I think Takeda will be the strongest of the bunch in straight Mortal Kombat,
but i also feel Liu will be back to defend his title

Liu's going to end up protector of Earthrealm and be their mentor at the end/future games.

I'm liking Cassie a lot after the trailer. I think she'll play a major role. Liu Kang hasn't really been the protagonist since MK4, that was left up to Shujinko, Taven, and Raiden in recent games. I do think Raiden will have less of a role in this game though. I'm thinking Cassie will have a bigger role than him.
I don't think Liu Kang will come back as the main protagonist, but I do think he'll come back in some form. I'm still a little worried that he'll be the big bad which would really upset me, but I'm trying to remain optimistic.

i think those were just cassie's story mode chapters mainly in the trailer. Boons for twitter hint was a cage and then the next hint was the story.

Idk Cassie might turn out to be a better fighter than some people think. Somebody here said that Boon stated Sindel to be one of the most powerful females in the series, and we saw (What appeared to be) Cassie fighting evenly with her, not to mention im sure she has received training from both of her parents, and she seems to spar with Jacqui too, I wouldn't underestimate her.

She seems to be leading the group but my moneys on Takeda. Like someone mentioned, son of Kenshi, student of Scorpion. Cassie is only going to appear in the final arc where as Takeda will be kid in the earlier arcs. Were going to essentially see this guy grow up. I wouldn't be surprised if they write it so Takeda reminds Scorpion of his own son. It just seems he has a bit more going on than Cassie.
Kind of unrelated but have we heard Takeda talk? Not feeling Cassie's VA, hoping his is better.
