What characters have the easiest execution?

Aquaman, Superman, Green Lantern, Wonder Woman, Bane, Green Arrow are my picks for simple inputs / combos.

I don't think there are any incredibly hard characters to use. Batman, Superman, Deadshot, and Aquaman are pretty easy to get a grasp on.

Thanks for the replies everyone! MKX was my first game so I'm kind of a nub :p
I would recommend going by which character you like the most. It will motivate you to play, learn, and win or lose you always have fun seeing your homie on screen. I think a good idea would be to pick up a secondary "easy input" character for when things get frustrating as you're learning your main.

Batman by a country mile. I freely admit to having sub-par execution, and I figured out all of Batman's BnBs just grinding Multiverse stuff. His gameplan is very easy to pick up at a basic level. I'm sure there is far more depth to the character, but you can go pretty far with just Ji2 cross-up, launching string, combo.

I'm same as OP, I can definitely appreciate a character that's pretty easy to pick up. IE: Boneshaper Shinnok.

Unfortunately, I have 0 interests in any of the characters that have been repeatedly listed. =(

how many times of out 10 tries can you pull of Batman's F2 trait, 123 combos?

lol, I should have specified basic bnbs. No offense intended to Batman mains, I'm sure he has way more complicated stuff in his arsenal. Just responding to the "who can I jump in as right now and learn easy" nature of the question.

Batman by far n Green lantern is pretty easy too, spent 15 mins in the lab with him and went on a 10 win streak lol

I also agree that Aquaman may actually be the easiest. His combos are all extremely easy, he has a really easy and reliable anti-air, and a really easy to initiate game plan.

Yeah why is his B3 link so annoying? Ivy's [string]xxDB2 MB, F3 is the same way. Super small timing window, hella important for bnb's.
I played around with him in practice and never got it to connect. Actually thought it might have been a change in the day 1 patch since I remembered pre-release video of him doing it.

Nope, it works, just super tight. What a pain.

Superman, Aquaman and Atrocitus are braindead, these guys can be picked up fairly quickly.
