Would you like "Danger" back in MK X?

[neolinear]

I think every MK game up until MK9 had danger - a bit of energy left where you only need to take one hit or few chips and die. I missed this feature dearly in MK9, if produced hype and panic in 2player mode, plus there were situations in MK9 where you're so low on healt you think you're dead but you aren't, like one pixel of energy left that you just can't see.

So, would you like to see

make a return in MK X?

I forgot about this, yeah that would be amazing, especially if it had that ping sound effect again.

I'd prefer mercy for added salt.

It'd be a cool little feature to have back. Totally up for it.

I'd say maybe have a "Danger" buff where you'd get a buff so you have more of a chance to make a comeback, but I can see something like that throwing the momentum of the game too off track.

Maybe have it as a Killer Instinct like thing? You know, if the winner starts a combo while the loser is in Danger, the winner can combo into a Fatality or something? Now that would be kinda cool.

Definitely, I don't know why it wasn't included in MK9

Built in comeback factors are for scrubs.

Prolly something they overlooked when they made the game.

It was a feature that did push a good amount pressure on the player. I remember when I use play the games when I was younger it would make become real clumsy in the game.

Its not a comeback mechanic, it literally was just a lil ping noise and small "DANGER" prompt below the player's health bar telling them one more hit and their done.

Not gonna lie before I came into this thread I though Danger is a MK character. Would probably rival Meat in name ridiculousness.

Yeah, and I eventually came to the conclusion that it might not be a good idea after all. But no, looks like someone forgot to read that part.

Oh, look at me, I can be ambiguous to.
