Since this was a very important point made in the Game Informer article, I thought I would title a thread with this information to lessen the confusion that seems to be running rampant on these forums as to who is considered classic and who isn't.

* Since Sub-Zero and Scorpion are NOT making their 3D debut they are NOT considered to be classic characters... meaning that they are considered MK:DA characters.

Out of the 6 returning MK:DA characters, 3 have been confirmed:

1. Scorpion
2. Sub-Zero
3. Kenshi

There are only 3 others available from MK:DA....

That is certainly one interpretation-- but who says that 3D has to be contibuted on who is classic or not-- many people may think that anyone from MK1-MK4 has "classic" status. But if your interpreation is correct I would say the other 3 are Quan Chi, Raiden, and Mavado.

is it just me or did Mavado absolutley SUCK in DA? I mean i never picked him as my character because he would make me lose; mavado is like the fat kid you dont pick to be on your team in dodgeball. He had such underdeveloped moves, his red slinky things only got him in trouble and he STOLE kabals swords. If ANY DA characters are to return they are...

1) Scorpion
2) Sub-Zero
3) Kenshi
4) Kung Lao
5) Frost
6) Cyrax or Reptile

Ill back ya on that-- only reason I ever picked him is because i thought he had the only halfway decent fatality-- everyone else's just absolutely sucked ass.

Scorpion - Yay
Sub Zero - Yay
Kenshi - Yay

Now... There were a good amount of other characters in MK:DA... Reptile I'm sure has something to do with the Dragon King so I'll say he is in it, and I hope he is.

Kung Lao has almost taken over the role of Liu Kang as earth's defender. So I'm almost sure he is in, and I hope he is as well.


The 3rd spot really is a wild card. To me, it could be Sonya, Cyrax, Bo Rai Cho, Cage, Frost. I think those are the most likely choices.

One thing to keep in mind is that all of the characters will have 6 special moves. Correct me if I am wrong, but wasn't the average number of special moves in MK:DA 2-3?

So since all of the characters will have more moves that are unique to them, it could be very possible that any characters that seemed lacking or underdeveloped in MK:DA will be greatly improved upon while also becoming that much more unique.

Who knows... a character that you hated with a passion in MK:DA could turn out to be your new favorite.

* The 3 characters that I think would benefit the most from this enhancement while still retaining the dark vibe that seems to exist in MD:DECPTION:

1. Raiden
2. Mavado
3. Shang Tsung

Classic Character = 3D Debut... Man, I hope that you're wrong on that one, otherwise most of the charcters from DA won't even be in the game, not even the ones who're normally in the MK series (with the exception of Sub-Zero and Scorpion). Anyway, if it's only three, I'd like to see
-Kung Lao (new hero)
-Mavado/Kitana (to deal with Sub-Zero/Mileena)
-Drahmin/Quan Chi (both have good "powerful bad guy" potential)

6 are from MKDA. 10 Clasic Characters. 8 brand spanking new characters. This is my predictions of who will be in the game.

MK:DA KARACTERS
1. Kenshi(confirmed)
2. Subzero(confirmed)
3. Scorpion(confirmed)
4. Drahmin
5. Nitara
6. Mavado
Hopefully Bo Rai Cho will just be a trainer in Konquest and not a playable character. Also, I hope they give Mavado better moves and loses the whole "I copied Scorpion" thing with those spears that shoot out of his jacket.

KLASSIC KARACTERS
1. Baraka(confirmed)
2. Mileena(confirmed)
3. Kabal(confirmed)
4. Nightwolf(confirmed)
5. Sindel(confirmed)
6. Ermac(confirmed)
7. Noob Saibot(confirmed)
8. Fujin
9. Smoke
10. Kai
There are no Shaolin's are colored people in my list, so Kai will make it. The truth is I don't know who is gonna be the last character so I just put him. It's the easy thing to do. I also hope they make Noob look unique and not in a ninja outfit.

NEW KARACTERS(confirmed)
1. Dragon King
2. Ashra
3. Hotaru
...the rest are UNKNOWN.
Reptile may be transformed into the Dragon King.

Sorry to borrow your post =p. but here goes :

Playable characters:
6 are from MKDA. 10 Clasic Characters. 8 brand spanking new characters. This is my predictions of who will be in the game.

MK:DA KARACTERS
1. Kenshi(confirmed)
2. Subzero(confirmed)
3. Scorpion(confirmed)
4. Kung Lao
5. Mavado
6. Quan chi
Kung Lao is the new "lui kang" I expect to see him. Mavado has ties to Kabal and Subzero accoording to MK DA. And Quan chi is the most likely sorcerer to survive of the DA. Merged with Drahmin or not ( would look nice I guess )

KLASSIC KARACTERS
1. Baraka(confirmed)
2. Mileena(confirmed)
3. Kabal(confirmed)
4. Nightwolf(confirmed)
5. Sindel(confirmed)
6. Ermac(confirmed)
7. Noob Saibot(confirmed)
8. =
9. =
10. =
Could be anyone heh. I'm not guessing yet. Most likely characters from MK3/T/4. Cause most characters from MK 1 en 2 were either in MK:DA or are already announced for Deception.

NEW KARACTERS(confirmed)
1. Ashra
2. Hotaru
...the rest are UNKNOWN. I expect at least a shokan, male vampire and 1 oni to join the frame. But its useless to guess really

Dragon King is the boss.

DA:
Kenshi
Kitana
Kung Lao
Scorpion
Sonya Blade/Quan Chi
Sub-Zero

Classic
Baraka
Ermac
Kabal
Mileena
Nightwolf
Noob Saibot
Rain
Shao Kahn/Kintaro
Sindel
Smoke
Haha.. all this guessing wont matter much once the real list is released. But.. I guess if you wanna test your guessing skills.

I still say Scorpion and Sub Zero are not considered MK:DA characters. It just doesn't make sense.
