I think he's a lot of fun to use. I'd take him over at least half the roster on pure gameplay. For me, he's top ten.

Goro my thoughts on him.
Fatality One Kind of sucks it is ok but could have been better.
Fatality Two : A masterpiece one of the best fatalities of the game.
All of his brutalities are really amazing. Overall Goro is an 9/10 character for me. He is nowhere near a flop. He is top tier in my books.

I'm actually glad to see some positive feedback regarding Goro, since I was considering (finally) to actually buy either him or Jason. I was never a huge fan of him before, favoring Sheeva and even Kintaro, but since neither one of them are in MKX, he'll have to be my Shokan of choice!
