    Plot Remix Predictions

    So as we've all come to learn and see, they are being VERY overt about how things are going to be this run around; Different. Already we see Raiden mortal and seemingly taking the slot in the martial arts prodigy duo with Kung Lao. Kung Lao himself seems to be farming in the middle of nowhere...

    Jacqui Briggs General Discussion

    Just a place for everyone to discuss general thoughts and information about her, impressions, ideas, etc. Personally I’m amazed at how they managed to make her so entirely different whilst still feeling the same as she used to(unless you were a full-auto zoner, RIP), in all the right ways...

    Jacqui Briggs Pre-Release Discussion Thread

    Jacqui is Bacqui and better than ever. We got the robo-legs, we got more MMA, we got GRAPPLES, and they didn’t tone her down like half the cast, she’s still got that engaging thoughtful edge to her gameplay! I mean, it was perfect, even her new costumes are great. Things of note...

    What moves from the MKX newcomers do you want to return?

    The classic’s iconic and often returning moves are pretty obvious at this point, but the MKX additions are up in the air. What do you want, or at least think, some of their returning moves will be? Assuming they don’t copy and paste everything. Including strings and special normals too, as...

    The thing I’m looking forward to the most about D’vorah

    ...is if those COWARDS at Netherrealm Studios™ will actually incorporate what IMO is the most interesting thing about her design. [from MKX concept art] When are we going to see the horror show that is her fully opened mouth? Every time I looked at her in MKX I felt angry that I didn’t...

    So what do you guys like the most about him from what we’ve seen?

    For me I like the idea of how his Krushing Blows are set up. They seem to be almost all off of counter hits and the opponent guessing wrong, he seems to be a real powerhouse in the punishing department. Of the variations that we’ve seen, I find Flag day to be the most interesting, aesthetically...

    Here’s Johnny

    Was posted a few times on Reddit, so I don’t know who originally spotted it. Yeah, I think the big red “FATALITY” confirms his playability. I really missed this feeling, felt like it was absent in MKX’s pre-release. The feeling of the community banding together to dissect every bit of...

    Best part of post patch?

    Fighting all the people who either don't know about or haven't adjusted to all the nerfs. Just fought two Kung Laos who tried to wake-up with EX spin only to get stuffed. Fought a few other people trying to get off the ground with armored launchers as if they were still a thing, priceless...

    General/Other - Cyber Sub-Zero Tournament Viable Lethal Killing Machine - Cyber Sub-Zero PRE-RELEASE Thread

    A thread to discuss the fourth member of the trio. All of his MK9 specials have returned, and he's gained a new special "drone". It appears that this drone makes his freezing attacks do damage over time, cool.

    General/Other - Jax (Old) Pre-Release Jax Briggs General Discussion

    He's back, he's black, and he's ready to attack! We have the satisfaction of knowing that one of the baddest asses in all the realms is back to defend Earthrealm again, and he's still doing it in the name of 'Merica. VARIATIONS: Get some! And bring it! The discussion, that is.

    MKX and DLC costumes

    I haven't really thought about it until recently, but given NRS's track record, we should expect a good amount of DLC costumes. MK9 had a lot of classics, and Injustice had a metric fuck-ton all throughout it's "lifespan". There are problems with that though, as most of the costumes either...

    About Subzero(s)

    I thought so before, but now i'm sure of it. The Subzero in game in MKX is Bi-Han, because: 1. The Subzero in the first comic is dressed like Kuai Lang circa MK3, and is given his signature scar, this time by Kano. The Subzero in the game does not have this big red scar over his eye. 2...

    Anyone else hope they change the current character select screen?

    They nailed it, knocked it out of the park with the animations when scrolling through and selecting characters but the actual screen itself isn't too good IMO. Mainly the fact that they used the snow covered forest stage as the back drop, it doesn't really fit. It doesn't feel "Mortal Kombaty"...

    About human Smoke and Cyber Sub-Zero

    Aside from the murder frenzy, this is arguably the biggest change to the lore made in MK9, and NRS received a lot of flack and a lot of praise for it. It was a ballsy choice, but I think it was actually a really cool step to make with both characters. What I think though, is that NRS needs to...

    Anyone else want better story presentation in MKX?

    MK9 was a bunch of chained together fights with the story peaking in for about a minute before and after each for the most part. Injustice was slightly better, but supplemented good opportunities for awesome cutscenes with bad mini-games. MKX can be better than that, and should be better than...

    Mouth Lasers or Eye Lasers

    Which do you think is better? Shooting lasers from the mouth, or shooting lasers from the eyes. Neither hurts the user.
