i see an old guy MAYBE SHANG:O but old again. i see skab and also noob and i think i see lui kang but i dont get the others

1st pic: Dairou?, Tanya?, Definitely Kabal, Kira?, 99% Liu Kang, Definitely Noob

2nd Pic: Ben?, Jax?, Dairou/Konquest Character?, Definitely Sektor, ???? (looks kinda like Shao Kahn), ????
The reason I think the third person in the second pic might be the Konquest character is because he may not be playable until you finish Konquest, which would be when he's 60.

Don't bother, I was at E3 today and one of the developers told me that most of those images are just black & white photos of the artists and not the characters, although a couple of the icons are characters.

Peace out.

Well, the third guy in the first pic is definitely Kabal.

I can make out Kabal, Skab and Noob Saibout.

There is definitely an old character, I hope it's Shang Tsung. There is also a bald looking guy who is hopefully Quan Chi. :p

I thought Skab was just a rumour who turned out to be an alt costume of Noob, like Cobra was of Ben.

kabal is the only one that looks easily visible. i dont think the mk team even has a final roster yet so guessing who they are is moot especially if some really are just place holders from the staff.

I don't see a single staff member in those two pics. They all look like MK characters, and I think I've indentified all but the bottom two on the second pic.

According to gamespot the MK team doesn't have a final roster yet.

"the roster hasn't currently been nailed down, and there's at least one slot yet to be filled. The team is currently weighing its options and considering either bringing back a classic character or developing an all-new character"

i see sektor. he is all the way on the right. in the middle.

Ok here is my analysis of the pics. I too think they are all MK characters.

First pic:

Ben/Kobra | Kira

Kabal | ???

Liu Kang | Noob Saibot

Second pic:

Tanya | Skab

Old Bearded Man (Shang?) | Sektor/Smoke (definitely a cyborg)

Goro's Brother | Dairou/Shang Tsung

Left to right...

Image A:

1. Not sure. I brightened the pic and the only thing I can come up with is Kitana. Use your imagination. It kinda resembles a femal and it looks like she COULD have a mask covering her mouth. It also looks like she could have her hair pulled back in a pony tail. O_o
2. Tanya
3. Dairou (Looks like the guy who snapped his own neck)
4. Kira
5. Lui Kang (100% positive)
6. Jax

Image B:

1. Ben/Cobra/Santa/Osama (Whoever the guy is with the blonde hair!)
2. KABAL! He has a HUGE thing covering his face. Has to be his repirator.
3. Old Dude (not a clue. Might be the Konquest character, but, you would think they would put his pic off to the side or something. I have this WEIRD feeling it is Rayden though. O_o Call me crazy. Maybe they gave him a beard to make him look... you know.... more ELDER.)
4. Sektor? His head doesn't have an EXACT Sektor look to it, but, maybe.
5. Noob (Has to be. But... when brightened... it SORTOF resembles Reptile.)
6. This one confused me. Could be female and could be male. Maybe THIS one is Tanya. Then maybe the other one is Kitana? GAH! I DON'T KNOW!!!

Let me know what you all think. Does anyone else hope that there are SECRET Characters? I mean.... we pretty much know the entire 24 roster. They didn't mean there was secret characters INCLUDED in the 24... did they????

I like your way of doing it.

Here's mine that way.

Pic 1:
Dairou | Tanya
Kabal | Kira
Liu Kang | Noob

Pic 2:
Ben | Jax
Konquest Character | Sektor
Unknown | Unknown

I may have Kira and Tanya mixed up but I think my list is basically right.

i honestly think that the old guy with the beard is dairou for some reason.

The guy on the right, first row in PIC 2 has a skeletal rotting mouth with a cowl covering his head. That guy HAS to be Skab.

The guy at the bottom left, last row in PIC 2 has a head that resembles Goro's head minus the pony tail. Regardless, that guy is definitely not human.

its really irritating to read in every post how the poster "definetly" knows who is is in the pic.

having said that, boon has stated that some of the pics are real characters and some just pics of employees. so its impossible to guess them all.

you would think someone is smoke and it turns out to be joe washington from administration

Boon confirmed that the old guy is the Konquest character in the interview I just listened to.
Khadaffi - I may be right, I may be wrong. It's 50/50. If I'm wrong I won't feel slighted in any way. I'm just trying to figure things out.
Also I'm fairly certain there is no Skab.

then who is the guy in the 2nd pic at the top right. that looks a lot like skab to me.

It IS without a doubt Skab. He has a rotting skeletal mouth with a cowl. Who else could it be?

Anything's possible. My list is hardly 100%

Hell, the two at the bottom of the second pic I can't even begin to identify.

The bottom 2 in the second pic are definitely new. One of them looks like a Shokan (look at Goro's icon in MK1 and you'll know what i mean). The 2nd one, looks like the old Shang Tsung from MK1 but with long black hair and a black beard instead of white.

The Shokan looking one's head is so pointy though. Almost like Reptile or Baraka. Or unmasked Shao Kahn.

That would rule, but I give it about a 5% chance of happening.

All I can figure out from those pics is that there will be a cyborg ninja in MK:Deception.
