Who do you all think in your honest opinons will be the best MK10 players and why?
You do not have to be correct, but if you nominate someone please indicate why you think they will be.
For example here are a few players we think will rock MK10 hard throughout the entire course of it's life:

For example here are a few players we think will rock MK10 hard throughout the entire course of it's life:
THE HEAVY HITTERS
Reo: The most dominant and consistant MK9 player there ever was. Constantly proving he is a threat in any game, Reo seems to have a natural talent at picking apart fighting games and exposing them at a almost broken level. Heavy is the head that wears te crown.
16 Bit: The wheels started a little shaky with Injustice, but 16 bit bore down with Catwoman and has proven to the entire NRS community that he is an elite player. Consistency across both games leads me to believe that 16 Bit will only improve when he returns to his MK9 play field.
Maxter: While he sat idly by through Injustice, one simply cannot ever count out Maxter. This guy brings footsies to a whole other level and was always a deadly opponent in MK9. I feel the return to his beloved series will bring Maxter out to more tournaments, and as such, bring him more top 8 finishes.
Perfect Legend: The 2 time Evo Champion and holder of the MK Belt. Perfect Legend keeps a lot of pressure on himself, but it's what drives him. We seePerfect Legend doing well in Mk10, but he will have the most to prove out of any competitor. MK10 is a new slate, and we think Perfect Legend's drive to succeed will see him in numerous top 8's.
Revolver: Revoler has shown over the past 3 years to be a very smart and savy fighting game player. He may have started out slow with MK9 but proved in the end his Kitana was a force to be reckoned with. Rev chose to play Lex in Injustce even though he was considered by many to be asshole hair tier. Showing his patience, skill and understanding of matchups and situations he rose to the top of the Lex field. This man puts in the work for a character he enjoys playing, we expect great things from him in Mk10
Forever King: His performances speak for themselves. A guy who was always on the Cusp in MK9 has emerged as a straight up shark in Injustice. With a renewed focus and more seasoned in house training partner (king Jr) We envision King will come out with a HUGE bang as soon as MK10 drops. He hasn't shown us any reason to believe otherwise.
Sonic Fawks - The meta breaker. This kid should be the logo for Nike. Just Do It.
CD Jr - The original Dominator of MK9. Made Jax look like a top 5 character. A top 3 MK9 player overall, CD Jr has failed to impress in Injustice at a level we are accustomed to. HOWEVER, he has been killing it in Killer Instinct, a game with more movement and footsie aspects. Cd Jr excels when he can play his footsie game, and few can match him in that regard. We expect greatness from this man, who was a boy when he rose to fame with MK9.
Denzell - The original Bernie master. Took the world by storm with Sub Zero, before crippling it with Cyrax. The reigning EVO champion will be going into MK10 looking very strong with placings in both MK9 and Injustice. Always a threat, we think that Denzell will continue to ride his natural talent long into MK10.
16 Bit: The wheels started a little shaky with Injustice, but 16 bit bore down with Catwoman and has proven to the entire NRS community that he is an elite player. Consistency across both games leads me to believe that 16 Bit will only improve when he returns to his MK9 play field.

Pig Of The Hut - Exceptional player, but questions must be answered. Has so far not succeeded in getting a top 8 at a recognized major with Zod a player considered top 3. Absolutely DOMINATED MK9 with Kenshi, however most consider him to have the most lopsided matchups in an incredibly unbalanced game. While he has true skill, questions remain about Pig Of The Hut's ability when using "non broken" characters.
Tom Brady - Tom will come out with a splash during the first few months of Mk's life and will fade as time goes on. Tom loves to lab and learn, but seems to have trouble putting it all together in his matches. It will be interesting to see who Tom plays in MK10 but one thing is for certain, it will share tendancies with the characters he has mained in the past.
Zyphox - Considered at one point in time to be the Flash of America, Zyphox has utilized his characters strongest tool to win matchups...the 50/50. A huge advocate of guessing, it will be interesting to see how he fairs out in a game traditionally set with more footsies in mind and not a 50/50 guess. IMO he will struggle with this and falter. He will gravitate towards a vortex style character ala Scorpion in MK9.
M2Dave- Once a heavy hitter in MK9 with Freddy Kreuger, M2Dave will almost assuredly be left without his main in MK10. While a zoning character seems a lock, M2Dave will pick one and it will be nerfed immediately for being absolutely batshit stupid. Without the ability to just toss projectiles, M2Dave will struggle early before settling on a more rounded character but just utilizing it's projectile. He will claim that it was all of the communities fault that his character got nerfed until he retires from tournaments all together.

Toss Ups:
Curbolicious - The original Rebelo of Mk9 Curbo proved that he was a force in the FGC. Bodying people with his Cage and then switching to Kabal he made numerous top 8's in his MK9 tenure. Once considered a sure lock for being a suspected heavy hitter in MK10, Curbo has to be relegated to Toss Up status as we have not seen him perform in a long time. We await his performance.
Forever King Jr. : Up and comer in the NRS Scene. Was still on bottles and formula for MK9 so no information available. Has shown poise in stacked Injustice tournaments. Expect great things from this kid ala Forever King when he was just a boy.
Storms : An Unknown Ermac Player in MK9, no real note worthy tourny placings of any kind. But a man that loves MK. This man bleeds Mortal Kombat. In our Eyes you can never count that out. We don't know if there will be a run button or not, but what we do know is, Storms will be there to front page it if there is. We hope for good things with this player. Definition of a toss up.
MIT - Currently the mouth piece of the Terry brothers. Always there to up play Vegas in any conversation deemed worthy to do so. MIT has shown that he is a threat along with his brother by placing in numerous top 8's himself. His Injustice tenure has been shaky, and his results in MK9 are not convincing enough on their own to make him a definite lock. Still, the potential is there which is why he is currently Toss-Up Status.
