Frost should return in MKX

No. I understand you basically want her in for story purposes to be a rival for CC and such, BUT the story mode is already complete. DLC should be reserved for characters that are different than others...two ice based ninjas would be a no no. Put in Smoke if people want another ninja.

People are just salty there favs have 0 chance. Frost already has a history with Cassie and Jacqui and she was the original next generation, sort of, so her inclusion would fit. Shawn also said we would see more of her in the comic so that is a positive sign, as opposed to her not being in at all. And the could obviously come up with variations for her if the managed to come up with variations for the Cage family.

cassie/johnny green energy+ shadow kick n nut punch, cassie/sonya cartwheel + tackle.
jax/jacqui obviously armpower
Isn't Cassies kick a part of a string? I don't think Cassie has Sonya's cartwheel. Mileena looks like she has a similar cartwheel though.

I find it funny so many people begged for Captain Cold DLC and now Frost is OMG overkill... I always though she had more personality then Subs... Plus if they went with the comics and made her a cage fighting ice grappler that would be pretty dope...
I would for sure like to see plenty of others before I'd pick her but acting like it's a straight up bad idea or the worst is silly...

im not a fan of frost but the whole "we already have an ice ninja" thing is invalid when we have cassie and johnny/sonya in the game. nrs has proven before that they can make similar characters play completely different.

I dont think there is anyone who doesnt think that they cant play differently, but for the same reason that people are annoyed with the entire cage family and Jacqui. thematic redundancy. Which is the reason that I dont want Frost, and the same reason that I dont want Cyrax/Sektor/Smoke. One robot is cool, three robots are boring.

All too easy...
Oh no! We can't have that and while you at it tell Ed Boon to get rid of Liu Kang or Scorpion, because you know they have Fire power and we can't two with the same powers...
Why not make every character in the game all ice ninjas then if they can all be different? Just because they can doesn't mean they should. At this point theres no more need for overlapping powers and fighting styles. DLC characters should be all about adding as much variety as possible. Frost vs Subzero is not as different as Fujin vs Sub or Havik vs Sub etc

too smart to play MKX

Look at Batgirl and Zod in Injustice. Same base gadget/power sets as preexisting characters, but they had unique play styles. Were there cooler characters to use instead? Absofuckinglutely. But I think it's proven that just because a character has a similar set of abilities and would keep an arguably cooler and less redundant character off the roster sure as shit doesn't mean NRS won't charge you six bucks for it anyway.
