Best set:

Raiden
Kenshi
Sub Zero (i wished he would freeze the opponent at the end of his first fatality)
Mileena
Ermac
Kung Lao
Cassie

Worst set:

Reptile (sad to say this..:( NRS could do so much more)

Most worst set:

Sonya

The second isn't bad, but doesn't fit her.. Collecting skulls from your opponents? Not Sonya's style! Would make more sense for the Predator than her.
Goro, Liu Kang etc. has Brutalities with a burned skeleton at the end and they couldn't give Sonya her kiss of death back? What a waste. I really hope the klassic fatality pack inculdes kiss of death. She had the best fatalities in MK3... long time ago...:(

I am surprised so many people wanted Sonya's kiss of death back. Honestly it feels to me like it would be out of character now. In the first MK she was the only girl and Sonya looked...more girly? I don't know how else to put it but her animations and the kiss fatality were there to fit the "girl" stereotype of the roster.

The past installments have portrayed her more of a butch, "baddass", kind of character and a kiss fatality would feel out of place imo. Characters like Kitana or Tanya would be fine with a kiss fatality, Sonya not so much. All her moveset revolves around gadgets and SF weapons so it only makes sense that her fatalities include those.

Best:

-Cassie
-Johnny
-Ermac
-Mileena
-Kenshi

*I wouldn't say "best," but Kung Jin's have a certain style to them that I find appealing.

Worst:

-Reptile. Oh, poor Reptile fans...
-Jacqui's were lackluster
-Same for Kotal and Erron (especially the latter after his gameplay was so well-received)

Raiden's weren't *bad* per se, but they don't really stand out. His second in particular. Then again, Raiden has never been the most vicious of the roster, so I can at least understand that.

Kitana. Ever since MK9 to now her fatalities always felt meh. It doesnt seem "shocking" or "gruesome" like the others which made me bored of her. The only thing i prefer now are her brutalities they're better in every way! wow

I think it's safe to say Reptile has the worst fatalities in this game. I know I've said this already,but man,he REALLY needs a Klassic fatality to make up for his atrocious fatalities.

I don't get the hatred of Reptile's fatality. It's true that by MK standards it can somewhat be considered a little rushed and anticlimactic. But if you think about it for second, is there anything worse than having someone shove their fingers in your eye sockets and break your skull in half all the while your face is melting from acid? It's pretty fucking sick, actually. ETA: worst fatalities for me are Kung Jin. I never liked fatalities that are instant kills followed by mangling body parts just for style. And both his fatalities look too similar IMO.

Best

Sub-Zero i like them both, but i prefer the "chest Cold" more, it's like a remix of his MK3 fatality

Kung Lao always creative, and brutal

Kitana

Mileena the one where she eats your guts as you crawl away

Takeda pulling out your entrails is pretty cool


Worst

Reptile just completely shitty

I still don't think I've even seen majority of everyone's second fatalities except for a few.

Mileena and Cassie have the best.

In terms of style, Kenshi has the best looking fatalities. In terms of personality, Cassie has the best fatalities. And in terms of sheer brutality I would say Ermac.

Worst goes to Erron Black. First one is too ridiculous, and the second one is build up with no delivery. Which is a shame because he has amazing Brutalities.

Sidenote: Takeda's second fatality really disappointed me. Given the name, I thought it would be much more brutal than it was.

well,he burns their face off,so it's likely they wouldn't have felt Reptile's fingers entering their eye sockets(notice the lack of reaction from the opponent when he does that) and the face stops melting right there. it feels lazy,compared to previous Reptile fatalities(even simple ones like the Acid Puke from MK3/4 felt more brutal to watch than this) He really should have crushed his opponent's skull in,then,eat it. that would have been a much better fatality for him.
as for his 2nd,it's not a horrible concept,but the execution completely destroys the fatality. why does it look like the opponent's sinking? why is there little to no blood when he does that? look at the dead pool in 9,and you'll know there was no excuse for this. thirdly,why did the part where he eats their head look unfinished? seriously,look at his MK9's classic fatality. Again,no excuse.
finally,why doesn't the opponent's hand "dissolve" as well? they could have combined two classic fatalities then done something new,but it seems that at some point in development,they gave up. It's a shame,really.

Ahem, Sonya has had alterations of the Kiss of death fatality in MK, MK3,Mk4,Mk5:DA, MKvsDC

It's only in MK9 they somehow did not include it in the game, she's always had a kiss of death fatality. Even in MK annihilation she finished Cyrax off with the Kiss of Death, they can always come up with creative ways and those lasers and energy rings could help, all they've got do is animate her blowing a kiss at some point before performing the fatality.

Best fatality set
Scorpion
Kenshi
Mileena

Worst

With a heavy heart Sonya two fatalities dedicated to drones, with the first being the worst I've seen in a,long while more appropriate as a faction kill. The second is better but still after performing it exclusively all this time Bored to tears of it I'd much rather a brutality.

Erron Black

Goro ( really that's all they could come up with)?

Sonya and Erron seem to be runners up for the worst set of fatalities,based on what you guys said.

The fiery kiss of death gold old quick, but the MK4 and MKDA versions would still fit Sonya, but they retconned her powers and she can no longer use her inner energy to attack, she's all gadgets now :-/

There's this in game kard with her blowing a kiss though:



So saying that it's not fitting for the character is nonesense. I just don't know why the developers know it's part of the character but still didn't give her a kiss fatality or even the stun kiss special move.

they probably wanted to make the character more serious,more bitter,so a kiss,I assume,in their eyes,was probably too stupid. IDK.
I have to say,did they run out of ideas when making Jacqui's fatalities? seriously. she has gauntlets which not only can be used as shotguns,but also emit plasma energy. you are telling me that it's too hard to make a good fatality out of that?

yeah,saw the picture,but it's probably just a reference to the "old" Sonya,pre MKX. this Sonya is harsh and bitter,and yeah,you get the point. TBH though,NRS has made some really weird decisions as of late,so,this comes as no surprise to me.
anyways people,let's get back on topic.

I actually don't think Erron's are that bad. His second fatality is pretty fuckin brutal, but the ending kind of sucks.

I'd say the worst are Sonya and Jacquis. They're just so boring.

Mostly everyone has really good fatalities this time around. Hell, even Kano's fatals are actually pretty awesome. Too many characters have fatalities that I like, so i'm undecided.

I don't think there is anyone with 2 OUTSTANDING fatalities, imo (wait... Ermac). Mileena has a great one, and an okay one, same with Kenshi and Cassie. I don't like Johnny's 1st as much as his 2nd, mainly because it's not realistic (I'm the pickiest person ever if you haven't figured that out by now). Kung Jin has some good one's I guess. Okay list:

Mileena, Goro, and Ermac have the best.

Worst sets go to Reptile, Jacqui, and Kotal Kahn (Ko'atal's second is so stupid it's not even funny). Tanya will probably shock everyone and have the 2 most memorable fatalities out of any MK game ever. The fatalities always seem better with DLC, basing it off MK9 anyway. All of the DLC from MK9 had more creative fatalities than the rest of the cast imsho.

Best- Kotal Kahn (love that toothpaste squeeze, and the heart rip is fitting), Kenshi, Mileena (particularly her second), D'Vorah (with the bug swarm being the best of the two), Cassie (Her selfie one is fucking arrogant, but definitely fits her), Ermac (Organ pull is the best of the two), Sub-Zero (both are pretty damn good, especially the bed of ice) and Kung Lao.

Honorables- Goro (Limb dismemberment is great, but the chest pull is just kind of dumb, imo), Kano, Johnny, Scorpion, Kitana (similar to Liu Kang's, but at least have a 'some' personality), and Quan Chi.

Worst- Raiden (probably the worst fatalities he's ever had, especially #2...wtf?), Liu Kang (incredibly lame, no personality...), Erron Black, Takeda, Reptile (oh, poor poor Reptile...once my favorite, and I don't even use him in MKX...his shit fatalities don't help sad ), Ferra Torr (meh), Kung Jin (does he have to use his bow-staff in both fatalities...and essentially do the same thing?), Sonya, Jacqui (-.-), Jax, and Shinnok (shame, he has so much potential for interesting fatalities).

To be honest, I'm loving the Brutalities waaaay more than the Fatalities. They just feel more viceral and, well, brutal. tongue And I get a greater sense of satisfaction setting them up and pulling them off. Really glad each character has five of 'em. Nothing like sawing your opponent in half with Kotal, or exploding someone under Goro's feet. grin

Believe it or not, Sonya's "Kiss of Death" was actually pretty sweet in Annihilation.
