Noob
NO new characters for today:
-ErronBkack is Deathstroke
-Shinnok is ShangTsung
-LiuKang is.......LiuKang

A bit dissapointed with Erron, I didnt think in a heavy zoner like he is, I dont like the "keep away from me characters"

......and still no news of netcode or online play getting apart factions
This post.....my god.

How is Erron Black Deathstroke? They both use guns but so what? With that logic I'm guessing every character who uses guns are automatically a clone of Deathstroke right? The only thing that both have in common is that they use guns and swords. That's it and if you were paying attention instead of being ignorant Erron has completely different movesets

Shinnok only has ONE move that is simliar to Shang Tsung, but it's still different from Shang Tsung in MK9. Plus I don't recall Shang Tsung summoning skeleton hands from the ground.

Lou Wang is awesome as hell. Be happy with the fact that they choose to do 3 characters and taking the time out of their day to do these livestreams.

Goddamn these scrubposts

You know me as RisingShieldBro online.
Erron Black is everything I wanted him to be: A mix of rushdown and zoning while screaming style all over it. Everything from his stance, to his variations is absolutely gorgeous! Don't even get me started on that X-ray..

Liu Kang although what I wished for, has some pretty interesting variation ideas. I like how they made him unique by giving him the ability to double EX fireballs and that his bicylcle kick can now be a starter. His Flame fist variation seems to scream hardcore rushdown while Dragon's fire is more traditional with some more added gimmicks in fireball cancelling. I hope those fireballs do at least 4% chip and be plus when MB burned since he shoots two. His Duelist variation is very similar to Cyborg and Martian Manhunter. He gets crazy pressure with orbs in dark and fast zoning with ability to heal in light, along with a parry.. damn. Too bad we didn't get to see the EX parry but I'm hoping those orbs do disappear when Liu gets hit. Overall I would say Liu took me by surpirse and am at least going to try him out as I used him MK9 alongside my Subby, Kitana, and Kenshi.

Shinnok seemed interesting but definitely not my type of character. His imposter variation is hands down a Shang Tsung reference but keeps Shinnok's specials. Bone shaper gives nice range and rushdown so thats something awesome. His necromancer variation brings back his traditional moves but it looks so much like Sinestro I find it disgusting; definitely going to be a strong zoner in this variation. I bet Wound Cowboy is going to love him, but based on that name, he might just use Erron. :D

Likes nerds with big ...
Wow Erron's 'magic bullet' x-ray is kind of tasteless. I wouldn't be surprised if that led to some negative publicity.
It's way too corny for any of that. I laughed so hard because it added to his camp factor. Erron <3

I get it. Just looked disproportionate is my point. And I like saying baby hands Shinnok

They really do and it seemed a bit random that he lost his flesh all of the sudden when he's been using those babies like nothing before...

In Europe!
Wait. What? How any moreso than any other fatality in this game, or most throughout the series?
It's appears to be modeled after the 'magic bullet' theory of how JFK died.

Only negativity is coming from your comment
I wasn't complaining, just an observation. The kind of thing I imagine fox news spending some time on ("this new video game allows you to re-enact the assassination of a president, bla bla").
