He has one of the fastest anti airs in the game, he's also not meant to be a close range character.. He's best in his summoner variation to zone.

Even though I have not finished the story yet, I would be lying if I said I wasn't surprised by D'vorah, turned out way better than I was expecting.

As satisfying as it was to watch Quan Chi and Shinnok finally eat shit, I felt like it was something they should have put off for another game. They were simply built up too much at the end of 9 to be plausible threats, and now with them and Mileena out of the way, it doesn't leave much in terms of conflict, barring maybe Kotal's forces and internal strife with Raiden turning.!Spoilers> Jacqui turned out to be slightly more three-dimensional than I anticipated, but not much. Still, I like her personality and gameplay style. Kung Jin blew all my expectations out of the water, I was not expecting to like him as much as I did. I still take Fujin's absence from the roster as a huge personal blow, especially after that savage comeback he had in the first chapter. Erron, Ermac, and Reptile kinda stood around and did nothing. They were nowhere in my top 5 to begin with, but that just felt cheap. My biggest disappointment has to come with Liu Kang, Kung Lao and Kitana. Again, these characters aren't my personal favorites, but to lead us to a completely different conclusion in the marketing campaign than what actually happened with them was incredibly deceptive, and makes me fear for what the NRS team thinks they'll get away with next time.

And I apologize for my wall of text and lack of spoiler tags the formatting on this fucking website is not working for me today

I'm still pretty terrible at the game, but Kano has been growing on me the past day or so. I've never been a fan of Kano, but I'm really liking him. Not sure if it's just his new design or whatnot, but he definitely seems funner than I was expecting.

Kotal is disappointing me. He was one of the new characters I enjoyed most in the comic, but I don't enjoy playing him at all. I find him super clunky, and he's probably my worst character.

I think Jacqui is surprising me. I enjoy her more than I expected to, and she kicks ass in the mobile game.

I also enjoy Cassie a ton, and I like Ferra/Torr's humor, but I expected to like those things.

I was very suprised by Ferra/Torr. I usually hate big characters, I find them slow. But him/her are fast and fun to play.

I was really disapointed by Jacqueline. I kind saw it coming. But what really pisses me off it the concept art info we get. It's clear that by the time NRS got to her, they where out of fresh idea and where tired.

I've always liked Sonya, but her combos are a little too easy. Lots of XXX sort of thing. Fun for a while maybe. We'll see.
Goro is huge fun. Totally unexpected.
Sub Zero is quick, which is a big change from MK9.

I seem to be in the minority. I didn't think I would like Kotal at all but he's now one of my faves. A bit slow, but I can pull off some devastating combos with him.

Kotal is garbage. Sorry to his fans, no offense but I despise him. Alway's have.

My boy Shinnok is great! Love him! His Bone Shaper is my shit. Erron is still my fav new character. And believe it or not Kano plays just as good as he did in MKvsDCU. He was my main in that game and I love him in mkx. I'm kinda wishing his cannon ball would go back to Back, Forward O. But bfx is ok.
