Did he say what Liu Kang looked like?

Please tell me it was zombie.

Just incase anybody did not see the newly leaked pics of Erron Black. They both seem to be dealing with his fatality. He looks amazing

test post to see if i'm right about this sub-forum not showing up in the recent post section

EDIT: yup, i dunno why but this isn't showing up in the recent posts. @STORMS don't want to be a nuisance but do you know why this is? I had no idea about theend's post until I came here on a whim.

I believe the first pic is a brutality(not cinematic enough for fatality), and the second is a story mode cutscene(the screen darkens for fatalities)

 

[Saint Op Omen]

Salazar Blade though...

 

[ZeZe]

Well, hello thar, Clint Eastwood. Didn't know you'd moved to the gaming industry.

Hi co-main <3.

Yeah you are probably right, I was alittle out of it when I posted that.

Only one phrase:
"I Love My Job"

 

[Barrogh]

Can't wait to see some gameplay. He's my guy for sure. Hoping he has a shotgun variation for more upclose stuff, and a pistol/more zoning based playstyle.

Add some unblockable strawberry grenades for oki setups and you're set.

And of course I'm hoping for some instant air projectiles.

Gtfo with suggestions of safe braindead gameplay, zoning or not. Because honestly, we know what exactly NRS does with those. Please, no "but muh execution" excuses.
No offence meant.

 

[Pterodactyl]

I hope they give him a Lobo styled ammunition management system, and really go in-depth with it.

 

[Shark Tank]

Does he have low gunshots?

 

[TopTierHarley]

Word on the street is that he has caltrops as a special move.

 

[Fractured_Shadow]

I am counting on him to be a zoner because God knows we need some in MKX. I will 100% be looking into him early.

 

[ABACABB]

Why do people think he will be similar in any way to a deathstroke ? Cuz he have guns ? lolz .... cassie use guns too , stryker used them too and harley ... so it means nothing ,

 

[cyanide_skittle]

I really hope he's not too similar to Deathstroke. I would like to see an up-close variation with fast kicks and quick pistol shots for combos. Sorta like a gun-fu variation. Shit would look dope.

 

[KleenexGhost]

If he gets a "Rain Storm" move...

I'm hoping one of his variations involves trick shots. Reflecting bullets of the walls or ground of the environment. Someone tries to keep you full screen? Shoot at the ground or the wall behind them. Bullet bounces of the ground around the projectile, hits them. Bullet bounces off the wall behind them hits them in the back. Anti-zoning.

Or, what if you could use reflecting bullets to lock someone down?

And you could burn meter to make the bullets reflect multiple times.

Could care less about the shotgun and magnum. My fingers are crossed for the "Sniper" Variation.

But DS is like that....

And then comes the Revolver Ocelot mod for PC!!

I guess I really wouldn't know because I lose to his basic ass zoning all the time

Depends. I can forsee the shotgun acting like a Kenshi SC or Noob Upknee. If that is the case then it might be really useful.

And then he gets his arm cut off by Kenshi and gets Shao Kahn's arm transplanted onto him.

I didn't even think of that. Would be an excellent way to incorporate it. I like.

I have a theory that since selling copies is a business, and trailers and streams are geared to the masses to promote the game, since zoners are universally the "less" accepted of fighting styles they are leaving the zoners to be revealed last. Kenshi, Shinnok, Erron may all end up being "thee" zoners of the game, but they don't want to put off any casuals in the showcasing stage of the game.

Erron Black may be in this group. My theory will hold true!

 

[ABACABB]

If hes going to be a zoner I want him to be good but hard to use.
