Well I think that we'll see Tanya's boomerang as a projectile special move, not as her weapon. If it is her weapon however, it will probably be like Kitana's fans in DA, where you could toss them but then couldn't retrieve it until the next round.

Agreed, I think that's exactly how it will be in MKD...However, If she is gonna have her boomerang as a weapon stance, I wish that she'd have a boomerang in both hands, and fight with them like that. But It will most likely be just like you said.

maybe she could have a boomerang with spikes of some sort who stay grip on her opponent head when she throw it(like you talk about with Kitana in MKDA)

Yeah, or Have the tips of both be bladed instead of wood to go for an impale if you thow them. And if she has 2, then I think the you should be able to throw one at a time instead of both, that way you can throw one for an impale and keep the other, until you decide to throw that one too.

The dual boomerangs were my idea for her! lol

That being said, when thrown, they could arc around the arena like Shangs 3d fire moves. If she only has one, it could clone itself or maybe split when thrown at the enemy.

Maybe she could have a bladed boomernag, but it has a small handle on it so she could use it like a scimatar or sickle and throw it whenever ready.

Yes tgrant I know they were, I wasn't trying to swipe your thunder, just saying what I would also like to see.

I never really liked the whole boomerang thing, i hope that they give her a better weapon. Maybe a cool spear like an Amazon or summtin. But if the boomerangs do have spikes, it would be cool to see her using 2 of em.

Hmm...I was thinking of one huge ass boomerang. Like Sango from Inuyasha or the big bounty hunter from Trigun.

I like tgrant's idea of how Tanya's boomerang(s) should move in 3D. I also think that, like Jade in UMK3, her boomerang(s) should also be able to attack high and low. Maybe even simultaneously, if she has two! (Block low to duck under the high boomerang, so it wouldn't be a cheap guaranteed hit). Her boomerang(s) could fly in erratic patterns, too, or thrown at different time intervals so the opponent's timing would be off. The rest of her attacks in her Boomerang stance could be kicks and maybe a couple of close-quarters slashes with the boomerang(s) in hand. Those are just some ideas I had.

Great ideas and thanks! The erratic flight of the boomerang(s) is exactly what I'm talking about. It doesn't just have to go high, medium, low and to the side.

They could even make them have a different throwing speed or something.

I'm shocked no one has even talked about fatalities! Try this one on: Tanya throws both boomerangs, each one severing off an arm. Then while the victim staggers around with blood gushing from his/her sockets, the boomerangs turn 180 and lop off the head. Then she can catch them and do a fancy pose .

A variation would be that she throws one boomerang which slashes the victim's throat. Then it turns around and finishes the job. I like the first one better, though.

I am really starting to get geared up here and I really hope Tanya has a Boomerang style! So many possibilities!

Boon said like if you never liked Tanya its good cause she wont look a thing like she did....brand spakin new mmmmmmmm mmmm

Cool Fatalities, although the first one is too similar to Kung Lao's MK Gold Fatality where his hat took off the head and came back through the waist. Even so, it'd be nice to see.
Good work.
