I would say that i can play the 3 variations of Reptile and 3 variations of Raiden at a high level. Since MKX is my first fighting game, It has taken me 2 damned years to get to this point. (learn all the mechanics, etc, etc) I am able to take on the whole cast confidently with these 6 variations. I've beaten some of the well known names from time to time on Ranked. I think i may be able to survive in a tournament if i signed up, but, i have my doubts as well.
Does a person need to master several characters/variations to be able to handle tournaments? (to perhaps have a "more effective" counterpick to different characters/variations in the cast?) For instance Semiij exclusively plays Mileena, but, i am sure he has way many more characters under his belt. For a minute, i thought Rewind exclusively played Raiden, but, he pulls out a God like Liu Kang and Cassie outta nowhere.
Do most of you Pros play like more than 5 characters and all their variations??
