If he is playable, I think Johnny will be based on Green Lantern's gameplay. He can master green energy and beating everyone with energetic Nutpunch HOOOOOOOO!

@RM Indecisive
@Vak Phoenix at this moment in the stream / interview did we know Johnny Cage was in the game.

 

[Atriox]

oh yeah *bling*

Can't wait to nut punch Cassie. All. Freaking. Day.

 

[Awsumpossm]

Here's hoping that he has a variation that focuses SOLELY on attacking the opponent's genitals.

Call it "Penis Fly Trap" or something

 

[IrishMantis]

I said this in nearly everything mentioned with Johnny im willing to Wager JC is gonna have a V-Ism variation

think about the tech and combo's if they make it right

 

[Rice]

Johnny is Raiden's champion
Raiden's champion defeated Shinnok
Players want to defeat Shinnok
Raiden's champion = playable
Johnny Cage = playable

If they haven't fired whoever designed their Women i doubt they are gonna fire him over a little mistake

I posted this in another thread but here are my ideas on his variations:

Johnny Cage has a lot of potential for three variations.

Universal Moves
ForceBalls (High and Low)
Shadow Elbow (His "Shoryuken")
Shadow Kick
Nut Punch

The Cage: Johnny Cage as we know him. Rushdown style, with his juggles that lead into Nut Punch to keep them standing.

Earthrealm Champion: His training in the realm of order, Seido, allows him to augment his force abilities, giving him greater control over his force balls. He gains access to aerial forceballs, and a ground forceball (Like Kabal's saw throw).

Showtime: With his martial arts training, and flair for a good show, Johnny Cage is able to use weapons such as the bo staff and the Nunchaku. His moveset has been modified to include these assets for his fighting.

All I can think of for some reason is CTL+C and CTL+ V. The poses are so identical its crazy. Props to NRS for keeping it like that. Instead of changing it.

You are little late with this. Sorry.

 

[nugava]

Sorry. It was just to remember they are TOTALLY different characters.

So much salt.

 

[Alright RyRy]

Alright boys. Now it's Konfirmed. Let the talks begin!

CAGEALITY!

I'm fine with Johnny Cage being in. A long time ago, who used to be my favorite (until I started playing as Sub-Zero...). He's a classic, he was one of the two surviving Earthrealm warriors in MK9, he has a pretty good fanbase, so he deserves to be in. I'm interested in seeing what they do with him in MKX, especially his variations.
