I'd like to take a poll on Sonya, to find out where she stands as far as MKO is concerned.

Some people are saying they would rather not see Sonya in MKD or ever again...Many more are saying that she is a beloved character within the MK world and should remain indefinitely...Now I have a theory on why her popularity has dropped a bit, so if you would take a moment and choose one of the following votes, It would be much appreciated....

I don't want to see Sonya because:

A) Don't like her, never have, never will.

B) I like Sonya, however I have grown bored with her because her story line has gone nowhere, that's why I would rather not see her, unless a major story overhaul took place.

C) None of the above..Sonya Owns...period.


I'll start, most here probably know what my vote is already but here it goes.

C) I love Sonya and will take her any way I can get her in a game.

Option C!

Sonya owns a good majority of the MK characters! I think she's great and she should definitely be in MKD and other MK games!

The only reasons I could give as to why she is becoming less popular is becasue her story is repetitive and she lacks a little originality on some parts.

Thanks for your vote tgrant! Always nice to see someone showing Sonya some love. Yeah that's my theory too, that's why I'm taking this poll. We'll see how it goes. Every now and then, depending how long this lasts I'll add up responses and see what's what.

Sorry guys, but I have to vote choice A.

Since MK2 is usually deemed the pinnacle of this franchise, it deserves mentioning that Sonya was nowhere in sight (well, that's not entirely true, but you get my point).

* Moral learned from this - Sonya is not a be all-end all character OR a catalyst to a more amazing iteration of this series.

I just don't understand what the big deal is with her. The only game where I thought she was better than usual was MK3, but other than that she does absolutely nothing for me.

She could possibly even be considered the "Stryker" of MK1. tongue

I'm expecting more Sonya loving that hating in this thread. Especially when Queve sees it.

Anyway, for the record - SONYA OWNS YOU ALL! wink

Yeah I've got to vote A as well. I've never liked Sonya at all (but I do like Kerri Hoskins!grin)

But seriously, she is boring to me, and is my least favorite female besides Sheeva.

The only time I liked Sonya as a charcter was in the first MK movie, where Bridgette Wilson did a good job portraying her (apart from the fighting!) with that 'attitude'. Honestly I wouldn't mind never seeing her again.



Her weapon in MKDA was kick-ass though...

im gonna choose B

Dont get me wrong tho Sonya ws a great character but she doesnt have much of a story anymore especially since it looks like Kano wont be in it. Sonya was a really good character in past MKs but her story just isn't what it used to be because basically if there isn't a story for Kano, there isnt a story for Sonya sad

C. Definitely - she is a must and needs her own set of original moves back (rings instead of basic fireball) maybe even give her her mist from MKDA as well, square wave, bike kick, LEG GRAB, cartwheel, and something new to add (to make her even better)! I love her MK4 weapon (windblade) and her MK4 Scissor Fatality (it kicked ass) her kiss in MK4 was awsome as well! I want her back!

I agree that her signature moves need to return! Especially the Leg Grab!

And 7 C votes so far shows how popular she is!

Option C, no question. Sonya has always been one of my favourite characters, and I'd love to see her in MKD (although the chances of that happening seem less than slim).
