I feel like this thread needs to be made because way often than not, we have players or individuals claim a character has been nerfed to "useless", "shit", "completely unviable", and much more being prematurely thrown around each update. It's to the point where it's starting to become a trend with each patch.
We've seen it happen with Raiden, Erron Black, Sub-Zero, Quan Chi, Shinnok, Tanya, Cassie Cage, Triborg, Scorpion, Predator, Tremor, etc. etc. where almost all of these characters at one point were called "dead" and claimed to have no use in the game after their "butchering".
Sure some varations of these characters may have been over normalized by a bit, but it's never been the case in MKX where a character from the roster has all of a sudden become a training dummy and has no place in the game.
Many of the Mileena and Alien players panicking on social media claiming that their character may now be "ruined" need to take a moment and realize that... It's never really happened before, and there's about a 1% chance it happens in the next big update hitting. Especially with a patch that has had seven months in the works.
TL;DR - Less claims and outrage of characters now being "shit" because of nerfs. The character that you think may become nerfed to "shit" in the upcoming patch will most likely still be good and have their uses.
