The most abysmal MK Kharacters in the series

[Israfel]

KP2 abound and we have new and returning characters coming to MKX. That being said let's think back on the series as a whole and who in your opinion are the WORST characters to come to the series and why?

I'll lead off with Mokap and Motaro.

Mokap was so bland, so boring, it ....................................................................asd v .aadg az.......................sorry I fell asleep trying to describe him. I better not try again.

Motaro is actually an awesome character. I like the idea of a powerful centaur monster being tossed into the series and he brought many a boss rage moment as a kid. HOWEVER, the reason he made the cut as one of the worst is because when he was brought in as a playable character they made him bipedal and ruined everything cool about him. I understand technology limitations at the time may have been a factor but I still hope the person that did that to him lost sleep over it.

Let's hear it everyone, also I apologize that this isn't another KP2 buff/nerf thread.

imo kang, bland bruce lee rip off, very unorignal and annoying as hell on top on that, his only saving grace is the "ima throw you ova there" gibberish from mk4

Stryker
Bo Rai Cho
Jacquie
Some others.

Bo Rai Cho #DansGame

Still have a tiny amount of hope they'll make him a badass drunk master without all the farts and vomit in MKX though.

Agreed, I was never on board with fart/barf Bo in the ol' days. Wonder how he will change in MKX

 

[Vjeekes]

Mokap
Goro (never liked that fat bastard and probably never will)

 

[Xxonemanwolfpax]

Ive never liked drahman but tbh......Kobra...does anyone even remember him? He was a huge rip off

 

[TamedLizard]

Mokap, Meat, Darrius, Kobra, Kira, Dairou, Mavado, Jarek, Jacqui, and Sheeva.

And aside from Meat, Mokap and Kobra, I'd classify this list of characters as "weak" instead of horrendous. I do believe they could be saved/revamped.

 

[Braindead]

Oh and Jarek. Lolz. He was a Kano 2.0

When people think of BoRaiCho they immediately associate him with farts and puke, if NRS remove those elements then he stops being BoRaiCho. Hope they get rid of all that nonsense anyway and make him a different char, like a drunk fighter ala Ching from KOF or ala Shun from virtua fighter.

How many characters are based upon fighting styles overall? Its quite a shame that people don't acknowledge Bruce Lee's Jeet Kune Doo, everyone who apparently practices the style is a ripoff. Not to even menton back in 1992, Kang was the first character to introduce the style in fighting games. Fei Long was introduced in 1993's Street Fighter The New Challengers. Marshall Law in 1994 in Tekken. And not to mention that Liu Kang didn't look like Bruce in the sequels at all.

Kobra and Jarek were absolutely the Dan/Ken of MK lol.

 

[Xxonemanwolfpax]

Boon even said that they called kobra ken in early stages LOL

Anyone with Bo Rai Cho listed loses any right to post in this thread any further. Such disrespect will not be tolerated.

As for most abysmal, Kobra and Kira. Absolutely bland characters that no one even thinks of bringing back.

Beside some obvious choice like Jarek, Hsu Hao, Kobra, Darrius, Dairou, etc... I prefer to talk about recurring char that I found abysmal since the '90 and my choice go to Johnny Cage.
Can't believe he's so popular because I always found him too cocky and bland to belong to MK like other character and only the "green energy" save him to be a simple general martial artist.
Another character that I always found a waste is Bo Rai Cho because he was born like a "joke" character (like Cage) that puke/fart/burp but I always prefer the dark and serious aspect of MK and I dislike every "joke" related in it.
Nobody smile in MK, it's a f...ing MK!

 

[SaltShaker]

Kai
Bo Rai Cho
Taven
Kobra
Jarek
Kira
Sheeva
Hsu Hao

Characters that someone should be ashamed of creating.

Well, with Predator, Jason, Leatherface, Alien (Barakalien wtf?!), Freddy and Kratos, all of MK universe characters are beyond amazing for me.

There is no technology to stop them doing Motaro. There is laziness on NR$. I mean, they said they wanted to add a tail to Reptile but it was too difficult, then, they scrapped the idea. Later, the SHIT Alien comes and they did it. Seriously.
