Half signs. I've only been using him for about a week, and I'm really liking him. Hopefully I can stick with him and get better, plus I need a 3rd character since all I mainly play is Stryker and Rain.

I've seen that both DJT and MIT use Baraka from time to time. I know DJT busted him out at NCR and had some success.

Not that I can find. I saw MIT use him at SCR , but he didn't do that well in the match I saw. Only the top 3 was streamed yesterday, where his Baraka actually didn't see any action. They both use a ton of characters. My friend fought his Baraka in the first match of the tourney in which his Rain lost, so I'll ask him what he thought. In the chance anyone didn't know, DJT is Denzell Terry, top 8 at EVO last year.

jamessmk you got 25th at MLG? Not too shabby. Bust out ol' baraka or just kung?

Good shit to jamesmk. Regardless of who he used, gettin 25th at MLG is a pretty damn good accomplishment.

Also, Zoidberg, can you change my GamerTag on the OP. It's SomeCubanGuyMIA now.

Hi Tarkatan army, I have played Baraka since day one and despite a little over a year of frustration I still enjoy learning more about the character and how to improve my gameplay with him.

Someone was kind enough to compliment my play at Season's Beatings: Summer Slam this weekend during Medina's stream and I figured why not make a silly signature image and then greet the rest of the brethren. I am still missing many above average tools in Baraka's arsenal, but will get there eventually. Wanted to thank you all for the great contributions to the Baraka forum; just a little skimming and I already feel more knowledgeable about the character.

Welcome, dude. I love Momo2, I wish I could have gone but I had lots of stuff going on last weekend. I will for sure try to make it to the next Season's Beatings event.

Welcome OSIrun. You will certainly learn to level up ASAP with 1man and Zoi here to help you out, they are the heart and mind on the tarkatan brethren

Baraka was my first main for awhile when the game came out. I thought he was the worst in the game, but little did I know it was just my skill at the time. I've went to Sindel, Raiden, Johnny, Sektor, and Liu Kang, but recently I wen't back to raka and have been finding more success with him than the others, strangely. He just fits my style more. Hopefully I'm welcomed back into the tarkatan army so I can contribute!
