Thanks, LOL I try.

But yeh, If It Involves the legs mostly It would be best with Tanya.

A - She has the best legs :P

and B - The other female fighters wouldn't look that good with their style focusing on kicks etc, they don't look the 'stuff' If you what what I mean.

Tanya would be awesome with that style

Capoeira would fit tanya perfectly, especially with all her cartwheel and athletic movements. I always thought tanya should have this style ever since she was confirmed. Great thinking TomTaz.

BTW, for her other styles, i would want her to have Eagle Claw and Iuna. IMO it would fit her perfectly because they are also fast and athletic styles. Eagle claw attacks more at the pressure points, and Iuna is more close combat, while still very fast.

No. Unlike the Tekken who has not very ancient styles, MK would suffer if that style was implemented. Unless you're some casual street thug, then you probably wouldn't know Capoeira. Sorry, but I don't like the idea of that style being in MK.

I agree those styles would also fit nicely with Tanya, however Eagle Claw ONLY in the event that Kitana is not in, if so it is Kitana's style. But if she's not I see no reason why these styles couldn't be Tanya's. Nice thinking Noob.

Just so I have this right and we're on the same page your saying it shouldn't be in because it's not an old enough style? I don't understand how that works. Besides I think it's been around for quite a while, By no means is it as old as some of the other fighting styles diplayed in MK, but I wouldn't go as far as saying MK would suffer if it is implemented. But that's just me, your opinion is of course your own.

It would be pretty cool, im trying to take some classes myself. I think tanya would be pretty cool with that fighting style. Didnt Eddy from tekken have that fighting style?

Yep Eddie fought with this style in Tekken.

I think that Tanya having that for her style would be awesome. It would really give her a more exciting feel. And in Tekken, whenever I played with Eddie Gordo, I would kick so much butt! But I do have to admit...I was kind of a button-smasher LOL.

sounds cool

What style(s) do you think would work for Tanya?

Even if it was in MK, it would NOT fit Tanya. Capoeira was an art created by slaves in order to fight without being punished by their masters, as it looks like they are dancing, instead of fighting. Even though it is a fighting style, Capoeira is more commonly used as form of dance nowadays. Unless Tanya was a slave in Earthrealm a couple of hundred years ago, or actively takes part in Earthrealm celebrations in Central America, it would NOT fit Tanya. Just because she's black doesn't mean it would fit her, which I know is what most of these people are thinking.

I think every mk has a different feel to it. i dont really care if its ancient or not. The capoeira would be awesome. Why only use "ancient" ones?

No one thinks this fits her because shes black, why does everyone find someway of making something sound racist? TomTaz just said it would be cool if someone had it, and he thought tanya woulod be good. Also it was said because she has many leg moves in MK4. This is not only used by slaves anymore. This is not only a dance either. This is an actual fighting style. There are a school here where they teach you this technique. Just because it is very rythmic doesnt mean people dont take it serious.

Ummmm, for me it had nothing to do with her being black! I am actually offended that you make that assumption. It was more a matter of she seemed to use her legs a lot for fighting, and this style does favor kicks and moves with the feet. So I'm sorry but your wrong about that. So what if it is an earth based fighting style SO were ALL of the other styles that EVERYONE used in DA includeing those people from Outwold and Edenia, so that just doesn't hold up. Sorry. Also I'm well aware of how and why Capoeira was developed.

Thank you I'm glad someone understands.

Wanderer I have no problem when someone has a different opinion than me, none at all. It's to be expected that not everyone will agree one hundred percent of the time. But when you start making assumptions about me and other people who you don't even know personally to do so, then it becomes a problem. You essential said that these people made there decision soley based on race. There's no way you could know that. Maybe they like the style and want to see it in MK, Maybe they think that Tanya would best pull it off because of the other reasons I stated. YOU brought race to this thread no one else! Remember that.

I guarantee at least one of you thought it because she was black. Tanya is an assassin/spy. And I already covered the fighting/dance/etc. thing. It is, in fact, moreso a dance nowadays than a fighting style, because it is an easy style to counter (grab - roll back - leg throw). How should I know? I'm trained in a few martial arts, and my friend actually knows Capoeira because he used it in festivals several years ago. We've sparred a few times, and he showed me Capoeira. Its a unique style, yes, but by far one of the best. If I had to give it to SOMEONE in Mortal Kombat, it would be Liu Kang (Shaolin festivals, etc.)

Ohh, but Liu Kang wasn't a slave way back when was he? I thought you said Tanya couldn't possibly have it because she wasn't a slave on earth when the Style came into play. Yet Liu could have it. Also how could you Guarantee anything about anyone who posted in this thread?
Look this thread wasn't meant to become a fight, just friendly speculation and it was goin well thanks for supplying the negativity. Anyway...does any one else have any constructive, yet not offensive views on this?

1. I made the slave comment because Tanya is from Outworld, she isn't from Earth. I even elaborated on the festival/dance part.

2. I've been using the internet for so long and know too much about people to think otherwise. By "one of you" I wasn't directing it to the people who posted in the thread. It could've been anyone who just skimmed through the thread. Sorry for that little mishap. I self-implied that statement to whoever was reading it.
