I may get stoned for saying this, but I hope MK drop some ninjas from now. Sure, MK had many, many great ninja characters that started life as a pallet swap, but we just have TOO many of them.

Now that's 18 altogether, and I may have forgotten one or two. Heck, we can make a seperate game with ONLY these ninjas....

I want the variety. Even though the team have made them look different on the new incarnations, but there are just too many of them. I think we can survive with HALF of them. We can only do with 4 male ninjas: Scorp, Sub(though I hate him), Reptile, and Ermac(Noob, and smoke should only be there as a secret fight like in MK2), and we can do just with the original 3 female ninjas. Skarlet, though, a good character, we can do without(though I enjoyed playing as her) and chemeleon/khameleon was only meant to be a filler new character with other character's moves, so it's better to replace them with the brand new character. Even with those character I have mentioned, it's still 7 ninjas.... or 10, if you count the original 3 cyborgs(Cyrax, Sektor, robo-smoke). I want some variety, though all those ninjas have HUGE popularity and dedicated fans, but I wouldn't mind they sit out this time. Ermac and Reptile, and even Mileena I feel, pretty much have their spot reserved, due to the heavy fan base. I would rather see Tanya returns(who is NOT a ninja), in place of Chameleon/Khameleon.

I am sure I am one of the minority here, but that's how I see it.


Imho. This is how it should go. But this is just my opinion and I do not hate these characters at all by any means.

Stay:
Scorpion / Sub (Obviously)
Ermac
Reptile

Go:
Rain
Smoke
Noob
Chameleon

I guess Im at the other end of the spectrum. Id actually like to see some NEW ninjas. If Street Fighter can keep making shotos, why can't MK have new ninjas? I mean ninjas are kind of MKs calling card. Even someone with the most basic knowledge of MK associates MK with ninjas.

I'm with OnlyTanya and Minion.

Not that I hate ninjas or anything, but we could do without a bunch of them. MKX looks like it has a lot of variety when it comes to characters so far. Let's keep it that way.

We really only just need Ermac and Reptile. I do love Smoke too, but just get the feeling he's not as popular as the other 2. Noob has a big fan base too.

I have mixed feelings personally. I do agree that there needs to be some hedge trimming and that Ermac and Reptile are obligated to make an appearance, but I also really want to see this games take on Noob or at least Smoke, even if they're DLC.

Highly likely, he's a fan favourite, and they seem to be including classic characters based on popularity. Nevertheless, I would take Boon's tweets with a grain of Salt.

Sub-Zero
Scorpion

Mileena

Atm, Ermac is second only to Reptile for the ninjas I want in MKX. Rain closely follows Ermac though.

There is no way Ermac is not making the cut. I just....I just can't imagine how mind boggling his gameplay will be. Same with Reppy.


Well said.

Man its tough for me to rank the ninja's in terms of who I want included. I can only reasonably think that 2 more will be in and I think it is 1. reptile and 2. Ermac.

But I really would like to see smoke and noob. Noob would fit the dark mkx theme perfectly.

Rain probs my least.

With Shao Kahn dead the re is no chance in hell that Ermac Will be back. (unless nrs wants ti Milk the character unti the very last penny).

Reptile, Scorpion and Sub-zero will be the only ninjas, Just like mk1.

Smoke, Ermac and noob could be dlc.
Rain is gone for good.

I would argue that they have TONS of variety. One can use telekenesis, one can use shadows, one smoke, one ice, one is a demon with fire powers, one can spit acid, one can tame water.

I don't get it honestly. There is a ton of variety there.. why would we want to throw some of those UNIQUE abilities away?

Is it because they have a mask on? Is that it? Then take the mask off before scrapping the entire character.

There's still a lot of mystery shrouding Noob and Shang at this point. Which intrigues me greatly. Noob usually would come before Rain, but I was kind of disappointed with his gameplay in MK9. But maybe I just wasn't using him right. Rain, however, was a fucking hurricane of greatness in MK9.

I agree. Any one who is new to MK9 or MKX will have no clue that once 10+ years ago they looked alike.

Haha. That's really funny because it was the complete opposite for me lol. I couldn't get anything going with Rain, but I turned it up with noob.

And the word Not is in capital letters, so it stands out from the rest. That could be a hint that Ermac is deconfirmed. Maybe as a DLC.

I had trouble with Noob's pop-ups. So I found myself doing the same couple of combos with him, and that made him boring after only a hot second.

But Rain....woah nelly. Reptile and Rain were my best characters.

Or it just meant he wasn't going to confirm/deconfirm Ermac being in the game just because some tweeter bugged him about it.

I am only saying there's just way too many ninjas. I know. I know, they all have heavy fanbase, which is part of the reason I started my post with the saying, "I may get stoned". Don't take it personally, and I have nothing against these ninjas, other than the fact that I hate couple of them. But that is just my OPINION.
