Looks like my list from the other 100+ threads about roster minus Frost I want Havik on the main roster over her.

I have a feeling that Shao Kahn will end up being non Cannon DLC though

Better than "Turkey Gibberish" Liu Kang. Fire God Liu would be the best thing to happen to that overused, bland boring rip-off in years.

As long as Fujin makes it, I really don't care what the roster looks like. I'm alreasy sold on it.



8 new characters not enough? How many are you expecting?

Not bad but your missing Noob Saibot so it's a no go

There are nine new characters on my list. Thats quite a bit. And he said it would be similar to Deception.

At this point any roster with fujin is good with me, I already got raiden and kung lao plus kotal is in my top 5 now. But want fujin more than anyone.

I see Reptile. It's perfect for me..

I love the drama of the topic.. you just NEED to know if everyone is satisfied with your roster LOL

anyways, what's interesting here is I completely forgot about Kabal's existence in this franchise.. He is almost never mentioned by anyone to be in mkx.

As for your plea of roster speculation approval,

There will likely be more new characters than the four unrevealed one's you've listed.

No frost, likely no reptile or li mei, tho i'm hopeful for the latter.

Add Sareena then this is a A+ list

No offense , but uummmmmm how the hell is Noob Saibot Not on this list?

Noob was the original Sub Zero(Bi Han). His name comes from MK's creators. His shadow based combos, and teleport grabs involved serious damage in MK9 in the right hands. His black hole pulls the enemy close, and the ghostball disables your blocks.His MK9 ending had him ruling the Netherrealm, overthrowing the person who was powerful enough to bring him back to life in the first place. Yup. Its a sin I tell you. Noob a Beast.. Also this. Your only fooling yourself thinking we won't have alot of new characters. Unless Boon folds under pressure.

I agree with the majority of your list and think it was a pretty good effort on your part, however there are some names I would take out and replace. Below is what I think will be the final roster count based on newest hints and info, with revolving sub-bosses and a main boss just like in MK9.

Scorpion
Sub-Zero
D'Vorah
Cassie Cage
Kotal Kahn
Ferra/Torr
Raiden
Kano
Quan Chi
Kung Lao
Kitana
Mileena
Ermac
Reptile
Baraka
Johnny Cage
Shang Tsung
Jax
Kenshi
Shinnok
Fujin
Tanya
Bo Rai Cho
Takeda
Kung Jin
Salazar
Ron Tan Cho
Jax's Protege/Possible Daughter

Sub-Boss 1: New
Sub-Boss 2: Goro

Boss: God-like Liu Kang from Shang Tsung MK9 ending



I think MKX may pull what The Walking Dead TV series has been doing lately; taking things that happened in the previous canon and switching it up to act as a 'surprise' to hardcore fans. Meaning, I think the Sub who gets the scar is Bi-Han instead of the other way around. I also think the soulnado probably somehow freed him of his sins and cleaned his soul. I'd bet money on it.



Of course he folded, if he even really meant it to begin with and it wasn't some sort of 'hope' like developers saying in development 'Oh yes, we'll have this, this and this in the game upon release' and then some of it never makes it into the final game. They've been spouting off about a 'clean slate' game for MK for almost a full decade now and we've yet to recieve one. This will just be another Deadly Alliance or Deception deal with a 'good chunk' of newbies. Like in my list, I'm predicting 9 playable newbies and probably, maybe, a new sub-boss bringing the total to 10. That'd be the most we've ever gotten. But I guarantee you, there'd probably never be a higher number than that, at least until the games begin to fail again and a reboot is needed.
