MKX Kombat Pack 2 Announcement Today

ImperatrixSindel

Too bad YOU... will DIE!
I could see it being Baraka/[SindelOrFrost]/Cyborg/Bo Rai Cho, I guess, but it seems more likely to me after Boon's tweet that these are joke silhouettes and we won't see Baraka or BRC in the actual KP2.

I really don't understand how someone could WANT Baraka ... dissapointed that there's probably no Reiko :(
Not that I think Baraka is a bad kharacter, I really like him, but I can only see him as a disc kharacter, not a DLC kharacter. It's like trying to sell Sonya or Jax in a DLC pack, they're just so basic. I'd take Reiko over him no doubt about that.

With Baraka my major question is how the variations would work. Reptile's are pretty bare-bones, for example, but his concept lent itself to a little more outside-the-box thinking. Baraka's got, like. The blades. That's about it. He can do cool stuff with them, but what would the variation difference be? Rain and Sindel, of the NPCs, are much easier to imagine with three variations.

I want Sindel too, but what you say makes little sense as you could say that about most of the current characters.

I mean there were no obvious variations for Mileena, Johnny Cage, Lao etc etc.... they just had to make things up. The same thing goes for Baraka.

With her hair grapples, fireball projectiles, and flight, Sindel actually lends herself better to the variation system than most of the characters already in the game.

Rain, as an elemental, would be pretty easy to do as a broad concept the way they did Tremor and Sub-Zero.

They could do Baraka, sure. I just think it'd be a reach.
 
Alien, Fujin, Bo Rai Cho, and Noob/smoke would be a good balance of unplayable story characters, 1 guest character, and a fan favorite imo, but as long Alien is in I'm good with anything.

I hope this is just a classic troll post from Boon, who the f wants Bo Rai Cho? And Baraka? I mean, he's cool and all, but to me it seems like a waste of a slot as a dlc character.

May look funny, but pretty sure that dog has been bitten by a snake or something else poisonous to be seizing up like that
It's just trying to hump everything, lol

MK1 is the best MK period.
The second figure could also be Rain:



(Please excuse my amazing art skills.)

But with that above post the Sweet Tooth thing, long-rumored, is feeling so possible. Maybe that's more evidence (along with BRC) that the silhouettes in the image are a troll. I can't imagine Sweet Tooth would be something they'd do now, with the Twisted Metal franchise so dead. I hope not, anyway.

ED: It's been noted that Sweet Tooth and Master Chief are both console-exclusive characters. I will feel silly if I did all this fooling around in Photoshop on a decoy clown silhouette.
It could be rain the gap between the arm and the body is not shown... might be a cape and rain has a cape

This is Baraka's potential last mortal kombat game until they do another reboot so he definitely deserves to be in this game, but I feel a lot of people will skip him because he is DLC. Plus Bo Rai Cho puke combos are going to be super hype, so yeah why wouldn't you want him?

Bo Rai Cho is a shoe-in, looking at the far right figure.
my guess would be, left to right:
Smoke - Rain - Fujin - Bo Rai Cho

Dead people can never be considered really dead in MK, you know that, but besides that, there are many other characters that could be better as a dlc character.

And Bo Rai Cho is just stupid, no more farts and puke in a MK game please.

The only reason people came back to life was because Raiden traded their souls to Quan Chi and he resurrected them. Now that Quan Chi is dead I don't think any dead people will be coming back, because as far as we know the only people that can resurrect the dead that are still alive are the Elder Gods.

Come on now, we all know Shang Tsung is coming back in the next game, and I don't think we'll never see Quan Chi again, but, as I said, that's beyond the point, lol
