If the better characters in the game were no better than characters like Predator, Reptile, Sub, Liu Kang, and Cassie I feel like the game would be less frustrating. The mid tier characters in this game have some pretty fucked up stuff. You just take turns putting each other in fucked up situations till someone is dead. Weather it's Cage jailing you so hard you may as well be in Alcatraz, Alien in the corner, Sub in the corner, Cassie in the corner,(everyone in the corner LOL). I just feel like the amount of fuckery even in the mid - upper mid tier is as far as it should go. Just my opinion so take it with a grain of salt.
