Yeah, but there's like nothing about her. Like if anyone could state anything about her that's cool then fine, but she's just such a nothing character. Even her role in the story mode is always lame.
Well, I agree her story mode role was weak. I have fond memories as a kid of playing against her every time as a secret character in MKII, so I've always liked her in general. She's just been so disappointing as a playable character overall. MKX could be a chance at redemption. If NRS played off her arcade ending it might be interesting....or not.

The only morality in a cruel world is chance.

I loved the way she played in MK9 except for her dmg output at times. Her normals and strings looked so fuckin stylish. I love her anti-zoning style of play and overall I had more fun playing her over Kitana and Mileena.

Mileena was the boring one if you ask me. She didn't appeal at all to me. To me she was very mundane.

Shoot them. Shoot them all.

What you just said could LITERALLY be applied to EVERY character in ANY game based upon a point of view/perspective/taste.

Storywise:
1.) She was Kitana's childhood best friend (cool by association)
2.)She was the first ever female (secret) battle (MK2) (nostalgia factor)
3.) She was ordered to capture and assassinate Kitana in UMK3 (she is action oriented and an assassin)

Aesthetics:
1.)Green female ninja
2.) Staff weapon
3.) Glow/Flash through projectiles
4.) bad ass shadow kick
5.) boomerangs

I mean....a lot of people think she's cool bro. #LiveAndLetLive #GoGreen #GetJaded

If it's even a variation of her ending where someone possesses her...I would be cool with that. Would be a great way to canonically give her some updated tech.

God...so excited right now. I already have the game pre-oredered...but I mean...I don't even know what I would do if she was announced.

Also:

Storywise:
4.) Interesting backstory in the original timeline: Commander of the whatever Edenian Army. Saved Kitana's and Sindel's ass a couple of times.
5.) Confident character, who struggles between different meanings of loyalty.
666.) Hot.


Playwise:
1) The only character to use a staff in MK9
2) Midrange and counter zoning archetypes combined interestingly. Lots of tools to cover both archetypes ( Her close game is what makes her a shit tier)
3) One of the best specials in the game: Ex glow


Remember what happened to Kano? Nobody cared for him for 20 years, and now we are all like KAAAAANNNNOOOOOO
 
Personally I would piss myself if it was Fujin. Wouldn't give a shit anymore about the other reveals, I would be totally set

Like someone mentioned on MKO, he does have a jade on his MKA outfit lol
