I shake my head every time someone says this, because it shows a clear ignorancy. Rain had the lightning attack first in UMK3. Nightwolf didn't get it before MK: Deception. And personally, I like Rain's version better, because it hurls the opponent up into the air, making way for some good juggles.

People's dislike towards Rain doesn't change my own view of him though. I like him. He is one of my top favourite characters. So screw everyone else's opinion about him. ^^

And wake my dreams
Let it wash away

I wanna scream
Let the rain fall down
I'm coming clean

True that Rain had the Lightning move first, Nightwolf did have lightning in a fatality.

But that's not saying much.

Agreed Jaded.

It's the same old critisms time and time again. It's tedious.

Different strokes for different folks. We don't need to ask that redicoulous "Y U LYKE RAYNE!!! 111" question over and over.

People can critisize Rain all they want for all I care. But at least let it be informed critique instead of ignorant.

That'd be like if I hated Scorpion because he has Ermac's teleport punch. XD

This thread is a bit pointless isn't it? OP doesn't even have a valid argument.

Is there even any proof what-so-ever of the teams disdain towards Rain or is Boon's reply of Rain not coming back as DLC all there is?

OP isn't valid... period.

Kenshi is the most probable to return and gain a spot on the main roster. As he appeared in MKDA and MKD. Also appeared in MKA (but who didn't?) and well MK9 as DLC. Reason being is because he is a fan favorite (like Rain) and he wasn't around at the time of the events of MK 1-3.

Kenshi will be in MKX on the main roster, no "ifs, ands, or buts".

I read this whole thread.

Rain confirmed.

Most facets of this thread are already covered elsewhere on the forum. If you want to talk Rain, Ed Boon's Twitter, DLC, eliminated characters, or wishlists - there are topics for those that aren't nearly as sadsack. Seek them out without being miserable gits.
