Not sure if it's cool to post links to other fighter sites, but thought I'd put this here,

http://shoryuken.com/2014/06/15/which-characters-do-you-want-to-see-in-mortal-kombat-x/

It's a poll of all unannounced fighters from previous games. You can pick five characters in the poll. Nice to see fighters like Fujin and Bo Rai Cho getting lots of love. Kinda surprised but pleased to see Jade ahead of all other female fighters. Apparently she has a massive following in South America, remember reading that in an interview once.

Because I use Google Chrome and has AdBlock, it won't allow me to see the site. And there's no way I am turning it off so they can throw all their ads at me. Sorry Shoryuken.com... :/ Edit: Huh... apparently I was wrong. Weird, it used to do so...

Oh my Lord, Rain is killing the game! I so did not expect to see him as one of the leads! Awesome!

I voted for Rain, Tanya, Fujin, Havik, and I had to give my girl Nitara some love.

Someone should tweet this to Ed Boon, doubt it'll influence anything but it'll be nice for them to see nevertheless.

Voted for Tanya, Frost, Nitara, Fujin & Motaro.
I deliberately chose characters who weren't in the last game.

Same. Went with Havik, Fujin, Bo Rai Cho, Tanya and Li Mei.

I don't think Shoryuken readers are so heavily invested in MK as a fighting franchise so it's nice that slightly more obscure characters are edging over the traditional mk1-3 cast. Guess people want a bit of cast rotation this time around along with a few regular favorites.

I'm not surprised either lol I am a little shocked at Mavado managing to get a few votes, I liked him but he's normally grouped with these guys. I feel bad for Drahmin because he has a ton of potential. I like Sheeva as well.

But the rest are fitting.

Actually, Ashrah is tied with Sonya & Khameleon. All 3 has 22 votes.
Mine says one so I guess it didn't update for me?

Still though that's good she's getting more votes

I think those 22 votes equals to 1%. That's what you're seeing. Yeah, a lot of these obscure characters are getting some love.

I'm surprised Sonya is on par with Khameleon and Ashrah considering she's a vet and easily one of the most popular MK characters period.

wow..... everyone on that site have a hard-on for the male ninja's >_>

Tremor, a minor ass character that was never part of the main roster, got higher placement than characters who are way better and are actually relevant like Quan Chi, Kano, Nightwolf and Havik >_>. Just as i've always said, ppl (aka blind sheep) only like him for his stupid ninja look and this poll is proof of it.
