Master of The Universe
Just making a thing a "ninja" doesn't make it cool or a good idea. And just saying put T1000 in a fighting game doesn't make it a good idea either. KI has a liquid metal guy. SF has a stretchy guy. Injustice has MMH. None of them are particularly cool concepts cause its not 1992 anymore. Meanwhile, MK already has a million people with "knives and stabbing weapons" that don't sacrifice their hands and feet in the process. Baraka has extendo blades. Freddy had cool tele floor claws. Sub Zero has a whole array of on the fly ice weapons and rain's got "sharp water" (wtf that is). Kenshi has a living dancing brain powered sword and Noob already melts into and out of walls and floors.

The whole picture is that Khrome is basically this guy in a white dogi.

No thanks.
1st correction - Glacius is not 'liquid metal'
2nd correction - Noone of the people in MK with arm weapons can extend it
3rd correction - Just because alredy has it doesn't mean MK can't have it as well.Scorpion now has a fireball like Street Fighter's haduoken.

We need more complete players, rather than only a single ability. Khrome can shapeshift into knives and stabbing weapons, different characters, form a shield, turn into liquid, detach portions of his/her body and even make animals such as eels that are a part of him/her.

Skarlet and Ermac were both pallette swap glitches before they became characters. You're making quite the bold assumption about what NRS will and won't do.
MK1 Reptile was not a palette swap glitch. He was a hidden character that ed boon created whilst driving his car. Skarlet was created because the characters in MK3 were originally red costume for motion capture, Sindel had a red costume. What I do not want is people who are new to MK, either from mk9 or mk legacy, mixing fact from non canon.

Sure, let's replace a already established "ninja" (that gets thrown around too loosely in MK) that has water powers and more of a following with a non-canon jobber that would already be dead even if he was canon.

I give your idea a :DOGE/10.

Hydro's lame. Lamer than Rain.

I would prefer Khrome. Or rather, a new character (doesn't have to be a ninja) with that liquid metal schtick.

I thought Skarlet was a Mk2 glitch similar to the one in MK1 where mileena would turn red randomly. Then the fans called her "the lady in red" and speculated about her just like Ermac from the original MK?

"Doge out of ten" sounds awesome. GJ man

Where art thou, MKX Skarlet?

When did I reference Reptile?

As written above, Skarlet was a glitch palette swap, as was Ermac (error macro, as I'm sure you know). Both of these characters weren't even non-canon; they were glitches and Ermac at least is now a favorite character along with Skarlet having quite a following as well. My point is that you seem to think NRS has this devotion to the stories they've created in the MK timeline and that they couldn't possibly do something so irrational as make a non-canon character a real character for MKX...when they've already proven that they are willing to go outside of canon itself to bring characters into the MK universe. There's no rational basis for thinking they wouldn't take a non-canon character and implement them in MKX.

So asking for Hydro is just as legitimate as asking for anything else.

I'd want a bestial wolf fighter over a Rain rip-off personally, lets not flood MKX with Ninjas.

It would appear 70% and rising do not want Hydro.

Sorry OP, but Kano is a pretty dead cert at this point. Would love to see Skarlet in and even CSZ (though the latter could be unlikely).

Boon needs to release another trailer and soon to slow the progression of these ambiguous character requests.

TLDR: yes we agree that Hydro should be a non canon DLC character.

A page ago you were vehemently against Hydro because he's non-canon.
I am against Hydro. He's only on one or two pages in MK Blood & Thunder non canon comic book. But if he's DLC then people can choose to waste their money on him.

ErroRMACro was a glitch in MK1
Skarlet was a glitch in MK2 (tho it was just a urban legend back then), in MK9 they decided to make her real, same as Ermac glitch becomed an actual character in UMK3.



Fuck Khrome and Hydro, why is this even a discussion again?

I know about ermac and all the other palette swap characters. I was there at the time. Been playing mk since 1992. The point I'm trying to make is this....

Stupid people out there want characters from the malibu comics non canon story in the real mk canon universe. Hydro was a sub-zero type character in the comics. KT turned hydro into a robot for mk legacy. It's a retarded argument. Like saying people want sing & sang as tag team so they can combine into siang for fatality. Yes I go on about Zebron alot but at least Zebron was made by midway/NRS. Hydro has nothing to do with midway/nrs. It's people who are new to mk from mk9 or from mk legacy that don't know where hydro comes from and make stupid retarded arguments as to why they want this stupid character in mkx instead of sub-zero.

d the main reason I want Hydro in is because of his abilities, they can rename I dont care just put a character with his abilities he can control water and change the temperature which is fucking insane, can make it extremely hot and ice cold aswell
