After seeing videos of so many characters, i'm angry about 1 thing: they've given the teleport move to so many characters

The teleport attack was originally Scorpion's: that's what made him the best character (at least for me) in most MK games.

The teleport (without attack) was Raiden's. Many characters got it later. And now they've given it to Shang Tsung, Flash, Batman, EVEN SUBZERO!!

Do u think they're doing the right thing?
I don't like the sub zero teleport.

Batman should have one cuz that's the way he does things.



But yeah.. I'm sick of everyone having teleport moves.

Well I think you've sorta pointed out why they've tried to give everybody a teleport - to make it more even/fair. I think it's a good idea that everyone has a least 1 teleport, projectile, throw, etc but hopefully they all still have individual and different moves too. Just a way to try and balance things more grin

After playin the game, I know why every1s got a teleport move... The reason is that the arenas are so big that teleport moves are needed to get from one end to another, this is especially the case with Rage mode.

I think a teleport should only be given if it really suits the character's nature or style. Granted, the creators could tailor a new teleport to a character's style...but eh.

Yeah, I don't want everyone to have teleports either. Sub-Zero's seemed really out of place. Teleporting through ice seems just...weird (but still cool).

The advantages of teleporting seem to be overrated, anyway. You can still win a match without it, and teleporting doesn't really seem to affect anything gameplay-wise for me, anyway.

Teleportation has always been a major move in MK history.

Don't be surprised at this happening. Still, Sub-Zero's teleport is nothing but a rip-off of Meat's.

Not everyone should have a teleport. Not everyone needs one to compete and nor does it suit all characters. Sub-Zero's is ridiculous.

It's a nice form of defense... and as someone mentioned, especially during the opponent's Rage Mode.

it can be fair and balanced, and a lot less boring, in better ways then having everyone possess similar moves

i think subzero having a teleport is kinda lame. sure, itll make him more versitle...but it doesnt fit right. scorpion shouldve got a second teleport without the attack, imo. hes a spectre / ghost, subbys human.

Ice clone is a good defensive substitute.

I think the real question is, would you be able to freeze someone in Rage Mode? I mean, if that was possible, wouldn't that be too easy? If they go into Rage, just freeze them and it would wear off... too easy. You probably wouldn't be able to freeze them, so the Ice-Clone itself wouldn't be a good defensive maneuver for someone in Rage Mode.

Sub-Zero is the ONLY character whose teleport doesn't suit him.

And Kitana, if she still has one, like she did in Armageddon. I haven't seen if she does or not though.

Everyone else's teleport suits them perfectly. Batman's is just grappling away after dropping a smoke bomb, which is something he does all the time,

Captain Marvel's is a little weird, but I guess it's a stand-in for actually flying, so he doesn't have to copy Supes.

Shang Tsung's in particular looks awesome. He always should've had one, IMO.

I hate teleport moves with a passion. Scorpion should be the only one to have them. They always leave you wide open for a beat down by the opponent.

Rain's not human; he's half-Edenian (seem to be a pretty magical people) and half-God (son of Argus).

I really dont want to hate on the teleports. Sure some characters they don't actually need them. But really if you don't want to use it, well then dont. I don't feel the mk team had to make a huge decision like "well its between teleports for all, or some superbadass feature that everyone would love, like 40 characters on each side." What i'm trying to say is its not really a problem because it doesn't detract from another possiblity feature.
