    I've always threatened to, but I think it's a bit late to start learning a character from the ground up at this stage.

    i already gave you all you need to play him,thats all he is, im not joking.
    if you read my post you learned all you need to know thats any use with him.

    1 string,knives,upball,xray...his backdash just as good as baraka's though.

    b112,212~jk~airthrow and 212,212,jk~airthrow his midscreen bnbs.....but they just distract from knives and upballs so i wouldnt bother with those

    he was widely considered to be one of the worst in the game and i was the only one here to play him,so alot of people find it strange to see anyone use him at all.
    lol damn mk2 char loyalty

    I see, ye seem to be a fairly knowledgeable bunch here :pac:

    Tell me then, who are the most underused or under-rated characters? The ones no one picks? (or likes!)

    Just to make online fights more interesting, rockin up with a z-list character could really mess with an opponents head! :D

    Cool, no rush with the add, I'm still terrible at this game!

    I always thought Stryker and Nightwolf had some good potential, potential I never explored. Nightwolf has that shoulder charge, similar to Cages shadow kick that I like. And hes got that projectile reflector thing going on.

    The only female I liked in the series was Sonya, maybe because she was there since day one, the rest are a bit meh.

    Nightwolf's so bad that I forgot he even exsisted until Letters mentioned him. Even back in MK3 I disliked him.

    I always liked the character himself, but never actually played as him.
    I'm gonna spend some time with him, he must have something good going on.

    Although I do like this comment on youtube....

    Ancestors Give Me Strength!!!!

    :pac:
    He could be fun to play as and even have a few hidden tricks up his sleeves, but I always just found the character mad boring. It's like th pposite to Kano, in my oppinion. Kano's got nothing going down gameplay-wise really, but character-wise he's an absolute bad ass.

    Are you suggesting Raiden is not a popular choice any more!? :eek: He has all the fun of Supermanning across the screen shouting HALABABALBLABLALALAHEYYYYYYY! How can anybody not like that! :D

    Any character from the original two games will always be loved by me.


    With the exception of Kitana and Mileena...... never liked them.

    radien and quan chi are perfect answer to who nobody picks or likes.
    haha gold.

    yea cyrax is hard work man, back back AND x to get his net out for all them resets, hard work to make what looks like random bombs and nets be legit.

    well....alot of people played radien at start at game lifes but then he was nerfed like 2-3 times,had good few tools taken away/made not as good.
    i didnt even know this till lar told me but they nerfed his walk speed at one point aswell.
    so he become harder to use so people just lost interest in him and more people when to the higher tiers like kenshi,kabal,cyrax etc

    As much as I enjoyed MK at Evo this year, the fact that everyone is now either a Cyrax player put a Kabal player these days makes it pretty boring to watch.

    Also, 16-Bit's Kitana is absolutely stunning!

    MK: Legacy season 2 will be out on september 26th. Also, they're putting the whole season up at once, instead of week by week.

    It seems to be MK weekend on Machinima, loads of live action minis about it.

    One very strange one where Kitana interrupts a Machinima office meeting looking for a fan...

    Mortal Kombat: Legacy II was absolutely godlike. I marathon'd it as soon as it came out. My only complaint was that there were only ten episodes, I want more.
