Just wanted a place to share our opinions on the best and worst fatalities revealed in MK11 so far. For the most part, they're quite impressive but some are bland or plain uninspired.
To keep the OP short i'll just state my top/bottom 3 and why.
No particular order, Top 3:
Noob Saibot: His first fatality is beyond amazing. Successfully tops Make-a-wish by adding a disgust factor. I could feel the fingers crawling out my throat the first time i saw it. Painful, disgusting, theatrical and very characteristic of Noob.
D'Vorah: It has to be a natural fear of most living things for your body to be used as an incubation chamber + food for an oversized insect. The squirming is amazing, and the addition of another member of the Hive paired up with the elimination of an opponent gives me some unreal shivers. True body horror. I expect my girlfriend to retch at this one.
Geras: Skin peeler. Painful, Quick, Effective, with just a touch of pre-death fear adrenaline rush. I would prefer if the victim looked more embedded into the sand wall, but i don't mind suspendeding my disbelief that little bit further.
Bottom 3:
Geras: Uppercut holes? Minimal use of the characters unique ability / moveset? Pointless startup? Just a very bland, uninspired fatality.
Cetrion: Look here, if you can grow to the size of a planet instantaneously, and shoot death rays wider than a country, focus beamed to the size of a human, why bother fighting at all? Ruin's the immersion for me. It just doesn't feel like it fits.
Erron Black: It's a Reptile fatality. Whatever about giving characters tools / moves that formerly belonged to other characters, but a whole fatality that primarily uses another characters shtick? Nah brah. It's not even as good as reptiles similar fatality in MkX. I would have preferred him to use his rifle to hit the opponents head off, then sharpshoot their eyes while it flies.
