Bo Rai Cho wasn't bad in MKDA, sure he was disgusting to listen to, but his Drunken style had some very good points for effectivness, like having some odd attacks that can be used to keep other fighters confused as to what he'll do next. Also the Jo Staff was not the most powerful weapon but had some nice little combos and juggle starters. Bo Rai Cho is a perfect character to keep opponents off balance because he is not so predictable in his actions. He should definitely keep the Drunken style....He is definitely not my favorite character and I could do without having to listen to him fart every five seconds or so, but he has his attributes as well.

I hope to god you're talking about storyline, because if not, I will not get this game if BRC is any better. He was ALMOST unstoppable in MKDA. Tone him down dramatically PLEASE!

I think the farting was a little over the top, and his puke puddle needs better radius and/or range. The drunken fighting needs to be tweaked out, a little more stagger and mix-up, but he's Bo Rai Cho (in spanish, his name MEANS drunk.) I could see him with Drunken Boxing and Sumo, but from the clips we've already seen, he's got his same fighting styles.

LOL! Ed Boon, if you are reading..DO NOT LISTEN TO THIS GUY. The puke needs to be toned down. Make it so it does not guarantee a FULL COMBO with contact or make it so BRC has to sip from his canister 3 times before he can do it. That way it cannot be a go to move.

A little more mix up? Hmmm..no. The mix ups in DF were utterly lethal. If anything, make it so the mid or low part of the 50/50 is not safe, preferably the low attack.

I suppose everyone's entitled to their own opinion, but Bo Rai Cho just cannot stand before my wrath in his present decrepitude.

...Bo Rai Cho was pretty damn good in DA. A decent Bo Rai Cho player could dismantle just about any other character with little trouble. He was that overpowered...Right up there with Scorpion.

Agreed, like Versatile said, if anything he needs to be taken down a notch for fairness.

Actually if Bo rai Cho is suppose to be a teach then i think he would have a better power than puking.

MY LIST OF IMPROVEMENTS:
1. The puke should be gone.
2. Keep drunk style but give him a sumo style
3. He needs a new projectile power.
4. No farts or burps.
5. Give him some new clothes. Maybe a monks robe.
6. a new weapon perhaps

I don't like the puke, farts or burps either, and I wouldn't mind him having Sumo as a style so long as he keeps the Drunken one like you said...but I don't think there's anything wrong with his weapon IMO it suits him and he kicks ass with it. No need for a change there.

One more Thing Bo Rai Cho should be the OBI WON or yoda type guy in MK. Not a disgusting blob. He needs a little class in MK6. Perhaps his deception mk5 was his act as a washed drunk master, not its reveal to be all an act and he shows his true nature.

Agreed, like Versatile said, if anything he needs to be taken down a notch for fairness.

Tell you what. When I have my lunch break tonight, I'll go to one of the the Xbox rooms here at work and give Bo Rai Cho a second look, see if he's got redeeming qualities I've overlooked.

Yes, I too would like to see a more professional looking Bo Rai Cho as well. Perhaps longer hair, showing his age and all of his trials and tribulations. It would be cool if he talked like a professional as well. Oh and if he lost just a LITTLE bit of weight.

No offense, but I don't think it would be of much use if you look for his redeeming qualities if you dont know what his redeeming qualities are. Soooo..

1. pound being guaranteed if 3,2 connects.
2. 100% safe mix up in 2,3 and d+4. Your opponent must guess between ducking and standing, risking much health either way.

3. Having an infinite that hits mid and can be substituted for 2,3 and will work with d+4 as a mix up. HE CAN MIX UP HIS INFINITE.

4. Puke connecting = game over because of infinite.

5. Just being safe in general.

I'll check it out.

Nobody at work likes to play me, so I'll have to compstomp.

Thanks for the education.

Like everyone said, Bo Rai Cho was good in Mk:Da, even though i never liked to use him he was still good in the game. Theres not much more the improve on him. I always thought that Sonya was the best in Mk:Da though.

Yes, whether you love her or hate her (I love her) There is no denying that Sonya was definitely a powerhouse in DA. Especially from Tae Kwan Do stance.

Yes Sonya was awesome, but she wasnt as good as BRC. BRC actually kicked her ass. That was a bad match up.

The best in order.

1. Scorpion
2. Bo Rai Cho
3. Reptile
4. Drahmin
5. Sonya

You can ARGUABLY flip flop sonya and drahmin if you want, and many debate over that somewhat, but to me Drahmin is a little better.

I agree, BRC is a better fighter in MKDA than Sonya, I'd say your list is pretty accurate as well, but lol, I think I'll take you up on swaping Sonya and Drahmin.
