Darrius or Dairou? From the responses I've seen, I don't think anybody likes them. I agree. These two characters are bland, boring, and unoriginal. Oh yes, Kobra as well.

They should be forced to fight in a three way Texas Death Match with Hsu Hao, where everyone dies.

Darrius and Dairou are some of MK's best. The whole Order/Chaos feud was a breath of fresh air.

Dairou, given how cool he looked in the concept art in MK:DA's Krypt, was a _gigantic_ disappointment when he came to be in Deception. He didn't have the double swords and he just didn't seem to have quite the same bad-ass attitude he had in the drawings. He turned out to be a finesse guy with weird moves. I realize he was a top-tier character in Deception, but I feel like he should have been more "in-your-face", with Baraka-like fury, albeit more disciplined.

Darrius, to a lesser extent, was also disappointing. This was largely because they gave him three of the most boring styles in the game. His fatalities were pretty good, though.

Kobra was a pretty cool character overall in Deception. I liked him a lot. But they ruined him in Armageddon by giving him crappy styles.

I did like Dairou in MKD, though I, like many, wished he was more like the concept in MKDas krypt. But even with that, I thot his look was ok, and he played pretty good. his story was a little boring though and underdeveloped. i think he had some potentail tho.

Darrius was ok, didnt like or dislike him really. hated his alt costume tho, one of the worst in the game.

I just felt the whole Chaos-Order storlyine was poorly done, and these two happen to be part of it. IMO, Hotaru was pretty poor too, and Havik, although the best of the MKD-newbies, could have been a little better.

it's weird that only 2 of the new MKD characters had nothing to do with chaos/order or new black dragon stories

Shujinko and Mokap are the worst. Kobra, Dairou, and Darrius are kinda stupid though.

I think Jax's Alt outfit is the worst one out of them all.

If I was forced at gunpoint, I would choose Darrius. Only because his moves are easy to pull off. Dairou only has one good thing, his weapon style.

Otherwise, both are boring.

Darrius's Hari Kari in Deception was very funny. It made him a little more playable just to kill himself off when he lost.

I kind of like Dairou. I'm not entirely sure why. Darrius, on the other hand, I think is somewhat cool with his look and moves. Overall though, I'm not really into him much.

Dairou is in fact my 2nd fave character, everything about him is awesome IMO. He may be one fugly customer, but his story is awesome and he is really fun to play with.

Darrius, on the other hand, is completely crap. I am not really a fan of his and dont think he deserves to move on to next gen. Dairou should avenge his family and kill him.

I don't mind Dairou. He's kind of bland, but I think he can be improved. I think he'd be better if they moved him away from Seido and made him more like his MK:DA concept...a bloodthirsty samurai mercenary. Whatever happens, hopefully issues he has with Darrius will be resolved in Armageddon because we really don't need another guy endlessly trying to get revenge for his dead family.

I'm not really interested in the Seido storyline...so I don't really care about Darrius. Don't like him, don't hate him...but he's pretty low on the list of characters I'm interested in.
Gameplay-wise, I'm pretty "meh" about him. And of all the Seido characters, he's the least involved with anything. Hotaru at least joined Onaga and Havik was doing his own thing. If you look at Deception, Darrius didn't do jack shit except hire Dairou to do his dirty work.
Of the two, I think Dairou has the better shot at moving on...and as I just said, Dairou should settle whatever business he has regarding his family in Armageddon. If the Seidan Resistance story continues, they'd be better of bringing in a new one.

Since he was mentioned, I actually don't mind Kobra. He's not one of my favorites, but I don't really hate him. I like the concept of his character...a psychopathic martial artist who kills people just to show off how tough he is. His "evil Ken" look does work against him...but I never use his primary outfit. I prefer his alt....because Cobra Kai never die.
I think he could be improved, but I don't see him going very far past Armageddon. There are other characters who deserve to move on more than him.
