Mileena General Discussion

Kitana has been base in every single game she’s been in. Never been DLC like Mileena. Kitana has been a main character in both MK movies while Mileena has a 2.3 second fight in one movie. Both of them have been advertised in previous games so I’m not sure where you were going with that one.

Idk why you’re taking jabs at Kitana lol if you don’t like her then just say that. Doesn’t change she’s insanely popular. We don’t have to worry about her missing a game. Mileena stans had to threaten lives to get her in. Sad

And AGAIN, I love Mileena. I’m glad she’s in. She’s just not as popular as y’all think. You guys saw apes go apeshit and are basing it on that.
You’re still reverting to the same “she’s never missed a game” argument as though that means anything in the context of Mortal Kombat. Mileena missing a game has nothing to do with her popularity or lack thereof and it’s deluded to think otherwise. I’ll reiterate, since it wasn’t clear the first time: there are several staples that aren’t popular at all yet are consistently included.

This is also 2020, not 1995, so using fight scenes in a 25 year old movie as an argument to support Kitana’s relevancy is grasping at straws. Mileena has received more attention, more advertisement and has been the topic of far more conversation than Kitana has for YEARS. I love Kitana too, but refusing to believe otherwise is just stubborn.

What advertisement did Mileena have recently? Definitely not MK11. Definitely not MKX. MK9? A game that came out a decade ago? Oh...
Mileena is more popular yet she’s NOT in the last previous movie and it took people threatening others to get her included in this game. While Kitana has been a key part to the story for the past 3 MK games. Hmm...
I remember back in MKX when Kitana wasn’t shown for a while and people were losing their minds. Everyone was anticipating her. I don’t remember that hype for Mileena at all. It’s like y’all are hopping on the bandwagon. She’s dope but she’s not that dope lol. And I’m saying that as a Mileena fan. If you guys didn’t threaten lives, we probably wouldn’t have her.
And AGAIN, I LOVE MILEENA. IM GLAD SHES IN. Y’all mad that she’s not as popular as y’all want her to be lol. It’s ok. She’s still popular. She’s still in the game. Y’all will be alright

Right. I say one comment (not even a bad one at that) and everyone’s pussies got hurt lol. But this is the Mileena forum after all. We all know what they’re about...

You do realise you can provide actual counter arguments instead of wallowing in bitter passive aggression. Stay pressed, because the only rude one here is you.

10/10 self awareness. All you do is resort to passive aggressive little digs and attacks on an entire community because your arguments are severely lacking.
Might wanna @ me next time. And what facts haven’t I not gave?

mind you this all started because someone said Mileena is the most popular MK character, which is not the case at all, and I gave my facts. Y’all came at me and now I’m coming back and y’all can’t take it.
Sad. Don’t dish it if you can’t take it.

Eh, no. The main debate was whether or not Kitana is more popular than Mileena, which several of us replied to offering legitimate, irrefutable reasoning for why we believe Mileena to be more popular. We never said it mattered and, again, YOU were the one who started being hostile and resorting to your typical petulant passive aggressions. It’s blatantly obvious by the language you use that you have some sort of unresolved bitterness and hostility towards Mileena fans. Work on that instead of projecting in a MILEENA thread.

So after I said Mileena isn’t the most popular character (which is all I said), I got called salty and I got called dumb. Yet I’m hostile lol. Ok
And yea Mileena fans are stupid af lol. The crazy ones at least. The ones with sense aren’t the ones I’m shading but everyone knows how crazy they were.

I feel like NRS knows Mileena and Kitana are far more popular in the MK community, but Sonya Blade is far more synonymous with the name Mortal Kombat to the mainstream audience (I attribute that to her multiple movie, cartoon, and spin-off appearances).

It really does feel like NRS is making a conscious effort to ween the mainstream off of her though. Mileena has been featured prominently in advertisements since Deception (including an appearance in the new MK movie), and even Kitana was featured in the MK11 commercial. It’s clear who NRS wants as the female representatives of their game, but Sonya has a lot of legacy behind her, regardless of how tired the community may be of her.
As much as Sonya means to the franchise as a whole I do think you're right and I believe it's the right move to make.

Kitana & Mileena just have better marketability; A more interesting backstory and lore, more interesting move sets and they get cosplayed way more often than I have ever seen a Sonya cosplay, meaning visibility and potential intrigue from new fans. Most non-fans can even recognize them for using the Fans and Sai's as weapons and from their colours respectively.
It wouldn't be the worst thing ever if Sonya got relegated to the backseat and the Kahn sisters took center stage for the franchise, it might even be better for it.
What would be interesting though, is if Kano, Jax and Sonya were not on the base roster of MK12, I wonder how vocal people would be to bring them in as DLC..

Should we add this new one to TYM’s greatest hits?
Y’all are too much

We all die alone. So love yourself before you go.
Yes. That’s my opinion. Idgaf about scorpion or subzero. I definitely don’t buy the game for them, nor am I using them. I’ve never used Scorpion or subzero since the release of MK11.
I don't think thats true. Only reason Mileena fans have been so ravenous lately is because their character missed a game. Scorpion, Sub Zero and Kitana fans don't have to worry about their character missing a game so they aren't as absurdly vocal.

I have no idea what they were, so maybe I'm wrong, but does anyone know where to find the MKX character statistics?
I've never seen a subzero or scorpion fan. The only people that use him are the WiFi casuals. Personally I don’t see the appeal of them. The only reason I like them now is because they look hot.
She was added in unchained. That’s deception no?

he was added in UMK3 tho. Don’t do me like that!!! I’m not salty at all lol I love Mileena. But she’s definitely not the most popular. Like, not at all lol

i mean it was an analogy. Chun Li is the female face of SF and Kitana is the female face of MK.
Kitana was added in to deception so clearly there was some demand there. I’m very positive if it was the other way around and Mileena was in this game instead of kitana, we would’ve seen the same outcry, but probably not as pathetic

Mileena is VERY popular. Again, I’m not denying that. But there is absolutely no way she is on Sub or Scorp level of popularity lol.
Kitana definitely is not the female face of MK. I would think faster of Sonya Blade than Kitana. Mileena embodies what MK stands for as well. Kitana is popular and easily recognisable but I doubt that at this point she’s more popular than Mileena.
What advertisement did Mileena have recently? Definitely not MK11. Definitely not MKX. MK9? A game that came out a decade ago? Oh...
Mileena is more popular yet she’s NOT in the last previous movie and it took people threatening others to get her included in this game. If you guys didn’t threaten lives, we probably wouldn’t have her.

First of all... who is “you guys” because I certainly did not threaten anyone to have Mileena into the game. I think it’s beyond stupid to still use the “NRS got threatened, that’s why Mileena is in” argument. Didn’t NRS employees state THEMSELVES that they added Mileena because of fans like LOSTyGIRL?? So using that argument is tired and outdated. Maybe you should keep up with what NRS is saying, so you won’t say shit like this.
Might wanna @ me next time. And what facts haven’t I not gave?

mind you this all started because someone said Mileena is the most popular MK character, which is not the case at all, and I gave my facts. Y’all came at me and now I’m coming back and y’all can’t take it.
Sad. Don’t dish it if you can’t take it.
Maybe if you read beter you would’ve known that’s actually not what I said. I said “think it’s safe to assume that Mileena is the most popular character”. Emphasis on assume, I never said she is the most popular character, but since Mileena has been the talk of the day since the release of MK11, it seems like she is. Even a very popular rapper cosplayed as Mileena.
