Did you even watch the interview? I'm assuming you didn't.

well that blows!

i wanted Reptie he is definatly a icon character whats wrong with them????


meh!

Well, you have a point. I thought of it from the beginning, when flash was confirmed.

It is also funny that MK side need one more villian

is there anyone hoping for unmasked Kabal just like the MK:SM version

A speedster is inherently fast.
Kabal has an arbitrary dash attack.

isn't all that fun to play with, anyway.

Not much of a loss for me.

seriously. what's wrong with people that they don't understand that.

If Kabal can be considered The Flashes counterpart then why not reptile? He has had many more moves involving speed than Kabal. Many characters have some sort of super-speed dash move, but none focus on speed.

Once again, you're being kind of pedantic. Look at the Ninja Villain thing. Sure, Deathstroke might fit your definition of a Ninja, but we're 99% sure that's who the tip was talking about, no?

Kabal will be in it, and his parallel will be Flash.

as does Shao Kahn, he has speedy lttle shoulder ram. Kabal = waisted spot on the roster.

What does the ninja villain hint mean? I'm lost. Anyway, just because Kabal has ONE move where he makes you spin? The same move the Flash has? Good, one move, where;re the rest? REPTILE would fit better, reverse elbow + super crawl + dash punch = more speed moves than Kabal.

I vote Baraka.

I actually don't mind if Reptile is in or not. I mean yeah he's iconic but I guess there's always other characters that can make it (my other guesses were JC and Mileena). Also, I'm sure that there's always a chance that Boon could've been lying just to keep the roster a secret but either way...whether Reptile is in or not, I'd be fine with game.

One is superhumanly fast. The other isn't.
Contrary to popular belief, there really isn't a lot of margin there.

If you go back and do your darndest to read the actual post, you'll notice you're repeating what I said, regarding the ninja villain clue.

Except the MK cast is mainly from MKI and MKII. So i wouldn't get my hopes up on Kabal.

i did too, but when ed said it was containing characters from the mk2 era, it seemed clear kabal would not be in. i do hope so tho, but i still doubt it.

he'd seem out of place with the other characters though.

Gee, but, if characters as obtuse as Raiden, Kitana, Jax, and Sonya could make it in, surely Kabal's a shoe-in!
Even though Shao Kahn is my favourite speedster.

You're being kind of a jerk...

Who do YOU think is in it then?

You loser-fanboys need to shut the hell up about Reptile already. Its getting tiring.

I hope Ed Boon was telling the truth when he said Reptiles not going to be in. Give that spot to Noob.

I remember him saying in an interview if we can think the 10 most iconic characters we should guess 90% of the roster. So maybe one of them isn't so iconic, like Kabal. Just a though. I will be pleased with a selection of any remaining characters of MK2.

No offense, but after this: A poor attempt at humor, I'm surprised you're still on the boards.

Anyways, I'd love to see reptile, but there are so few initial slots... too many ninjas wouldn't be my cup of tea.

No offense taken.haha that was a "poor" excuse at humor.....but I was just messing around. You fanboys need to chill out.

I'd much rather have Johnny in the game than Reptile. Hell, I'd rather have EVERYBODY that's in it rather than Reptile. He's old and tired, move on. He's hardly a fleshed out character.
