What?
NightWolf

Funjin, mostlikely will be in prison.
Would be nice though...to have fujin.

Sub-Zéro's a Ninga...

Raiden can't die,he's a god. You didn't watch the annihilation.

nightwolf would be a good choice and what does sub-zero being a ninja have to do with it?

You didn't watch the MK4 storyline.....

I am praying Fujin will be back to protect Earthrealm, I would jump for joy to see a new version of Fujin, we'll wait and see come October...

I want to see Fujin come back but non-god and evil

And I think that it's Nightwolf (or Sub-Zero) the main protector of the Earthrealm.

Who knows, i think it wud be cool if they had NO ONE to turn to....it wud make it scarier, and harder and cooler~ Maybe Rayden wanted Fujin to takeover, but Fujin was locked up and now they have no one to turn to....

WHAT! WHEN DID RAIDEN DIE!

THIS IS A DISASTER NO!

Raiden is not dead. If he was, then he wouldn't be in the Kombatants of MK:Deception, now would he? He's got a somewhat new look, sans cape and girdle, and he has a profile, which I doubt they'd give him if he was dead and not playable in the game.

Most likely, he permanently gave up his godlihood, releasing it as a shockblast in a last ditch effort to take down the DK. Since that didn't work, he goes to take him out the old fashioned way.

I, actually, think this story is stupid. Raiden is a god. He needs all the help and support he can get to help earth's warriors take down the DK. Sacrificing his godliness would leave him *extremely* vulnerable, since he would no longer have any means to protect himself other than his fighting prowess.

Instead, he should've tried to get the Elder Gods to help, and if they refused, then he should steal back the Elder God status that he relinquished in MK:DA and go kick some scaley royal ass.

so raiden having his godly wisdom sacrifices himself for?????? NOTHING. really really shitty way to kill off raiden.

I have a feeling Raiden isn't all out yet. All we know is that he made a fuck of a sacrafice. He's probably just no longer within god status anymore.

But if he did die, I give my vote to Nightwolf.

yeah personally i think raiden just got the srew job on the storyline! he sacrificed himself but it does say his godlike essence so maybe he is mortal again and ready to lead everyone into battle!

Raiden without his powers? I prefer the return of Kurtis Stryker...

no no no i didnt make myself clear again lol. i meant that he wont have god like powers and what not...he will still have his lightning abilities but not his god-like essence

Ok, so Raiden has made the sacrifice to give up his power(or most of it) and fight along side the mortals, hmm. Ive seen better, then again I've seen worse too. Too bad his sacrifice didn't have any affect on the Dragon King. And we finally know what the Deception in the title means. I think it's pretty creative, but not something shocking.

I think Sub-Zero would take charge because in MKDA he's got the amulet that increased his power if I remember right.

It just means that Raiden is mortal now. Shin, you prefer the return of Stryker? No offense, but, he sucks.

Yes, he sucks... but Raiden without thunder powers sucks more.

but raiden (if he isnt dead) will have his lightning moves back otherwise there is no point in having him back!

But if Raiden is mortal, wouldn't have to conserve his powers...

Sub, you're going by moves. You need to go by storyline. Don't worry about anything. Acts 1:18.

Uh, if he's in a fucking bio profile then I think it's safe to say he isn't dead. I could be wrong on that one, though.

To answer the question, though: Kang

I don't know how an infinate, a crouch which voids RJ's and bomb zoning ballances out to a character who "sucks." Meh, whatever.

Raiden is going to be top tier, I can feel it.

urban i beleave if raiden is back then he will have his lighting powers still! just not as strong or as plentiful as he use to......if that makes any sense to anyone besides my crazy mind!

I thought Sub-Zero was the new protector of Earth? Didn't it say that in his ending in MK:DA?
