What characters would be top 10 If there was no variation

Mortal
No talk about how Jacqui would plummet to the floor without a variation?
Ferra/Torr would turn into vanilla ruthless. But they wouldn't suffer the biggest hit.
Tanya would go down in viability significantly along with Cage and Sonya

But yeah I would say Tremor would be at the top, along with Cassie maybe?
 

MKF30

Fujin and Ermac for MK 11
Who knows, probably someone like LK maybe....

But what's funny is Ed Boon said months ago they toyed with the idea of adding a "bare bones" variation without specials etc, maybe MK 11 they'll do this assuming they bring back the variation system.

my variation-free erron gotta whole lotta wins...just sayin.

sub-zero is completely opposite. Crippled.
I pretty much main no variation sub zero online . Never lost a match because I didn't have clone , subs no variation is solid because he has everything he needs in his normals

Scorpion and mileena wouldn't be half bad. Ferra torr and Goro wouldn't change drastically either. Kitana would be solid as well
Mileena would be okay, it would be basically Ethereal with no Fade/Vanish. The only issue is that she loses her better combo enders of Piercing and Ravenous so she'd have to rely on Rider.

Kitana would probably be up there. Royal storm doesn't give her much except for longer range on her lift and the bounce back. Neither of which are really that utilized.
