With the, *ahem*, "news" of MKvsDC2 coming today, I have one question for the billions of MKO users-

In terms of power, do MK characters even match up to most of the roster in DC?

Think about it, all of these heroes we see in Injustice, would MK character's powers even stand a chance?

I personally believe,
Yes. Yes they do.
Many people forget, that while many MK characters are human, so are many of the strongest DC Universe characters. The Flash, Green Lantern, even mighty Bane is a human. And you can give me the "They aren't humans, they're Ouwrlders!" crap, but when it comes to MK, I can tell you
IT DOESN'T MATTER. Some species, yes, do have different ranges of lifespans and powers from their race, I understand, but the majority of MK characters don't get their powers from their, race. In fact, most MK characters just have powers. Now some may argues with me that "DC characters powers were undermined in MKvDC!", well, no, they weren't. MK characters just have the ability to take it because they, too, have superpowers. They just decide to stay out of spandex and creepy suits.
You're telling me Raiden can't take a pnch from Green Lantern? You wish!

As a debater and MK Trivia whiz, I'm willing t debate with any DC Trivia whizzez about this on a great span.

Well, I wasn't necessarily looking for things we could put in the VS. Thread, but I think Reptile takes that fight.

Jax or Lex Luthor? Scorpion or Deathstroke?

Lex Luthor has that horrible huge machine and isn't above killing.

Scorpion is a perpetually reincarnated hellspawn, so there's that.

No MK character has been shown to possess the ability to match a DC character, so no.

I think the MK characters could put up a decent fight. They have ridiculous durability and can rip limbs apart with their bare hands so it's hard to believe they can't take on some of the DCU

But Superman could probably solo the entire MK universe on his own. And Batman of course but that goes without saying

MK characters would rape DC's bottom tier, but get raped by DC's top tier.

Considering that we have no idea what Onaga would be like with that, I'm not going to call that one.


Really, I think MK vs DC is a tie in power. Superman can't bea ALL of MK solo, and Batman sure as hell can't. Remember, Superman is weak against magic, and plenty of MK Characters use just that- magic. And Batman, well God, Batman is only human. Literally, with no superpowers. Batman could take a good few, depending on who they are.

I think Scorpion could put up a fight against someone like the Flash or Green Lantern. And there's actually quite a number of human characters in Injustice that rely on technology (Batman, Nightwing, Green Arrow, Catwoman, Deathstroke, etc.) So the martial artists like Kung Lao or Johnny Cage could put up a good fight against them too, and they don't need RAGE to do it.

Scorpion couldn't deal with Flash or GL... they're way too powerful.

He'd wreck shop with most non-powered characters, though.

So you're saying that the hellspawn with the powers of fire, teleportation, and super strength can't beat the crap out of a guy who can RUN FAST?

And Scorpion isn't anywhere NEAR being the strongest MK character.

Now Superman, I'd believe he's strong enough to take out a good load of class B Mk characters and a decent amount of class A characters, but not all at one ime.

Ashrah, Raiden, Quan Chi, and Shang Tsung could ALL easily defeat Superman, Raiden because he's a God, and the others because they use magic. Yeah, I said it.
Ashrah could beat Superman. Without even touching him.

Not to mention that many MK characters have abilities similar to that of many DC characters.

I really can see how some characters like Reiko or Jarek won't stand a chance against people like Raven or Captain Marvel, but now, really? Is it fair to compare class D MK characters to Justice League members?

On a completey different and pointless note, who else saw the MKx Street Fighter thing they did this year for 4-1?

If you think Flash can only run fast, you don't know anything about him. Scorpion wouldn't stand a chance.

Raiden is a god in the MK universe and could only destroy a palace using all his powers, so no he wouldn't defeat Superman.

Magic alone won't defeat Superman if it's used by someone weak like an MK character.

Also, no character in MK has been shown to possess superhuman reflexes so they can't evade super fast attacks.

It also should be noted that most MK characters are dumb as hell, so Batman can take on everyone and their mothers without a scratch, also plot armor.

Run fast? He can move at the speed of fucking light. Scorpion wouldn't be able to see him, let alone touch him.

It's like you guys are comparing an ant to a lion.

Superman, extremely weak to magic, would have two immensely powerful sorcerers on him. Hopefully you know what the MK characters can pull off.

We'll start with being able to kill anybody with a single punch.

Sindel did that very thing, and she is "human Edenian" (as we'll refer to it here.) To compare Sindel, a class-B MK character, to somebody like Superman, that's like comparing Reiko to Thor from Marvel.

If you're using original timeline Superman (i.e., before the series stopped and recontinued, in I think the '70's), then yes, Superman could defeat every Mortal Kombat character, their mother, their father, their kids, and all of DC Universe, too. But that Superman literally had the superpower to MAKE A SUPEPOWER. What's the fun if he gets to make something up on the spot? It's like being able to instantly stop bad things from happening in life. Yeah, it'll be fun, but not interesting.

Compare modern Superman to a good MK character, class-A, like... Liu Kang, for example.

Liu Kang, being the Mortal Kombat Champion, is not just a human who can fire flaming dragons from his hands It stops him from aging, as well as making him IMMORTAL (by MK terms, that is). You have to look at him as a "god", because he is. You may think he's overempasized in MK9 when it looks liek he, and all other male characters, can bench around 500 pounds. Well, they can do a helluva lot more than that. They really are that strong, and more. Now, yes, Superman is VERY strong, I don't think anybody really needs to be told that, but against MK characters, it's not like he's just going to blow through them.

And Batman, oh God, Batman.
Batman, a genius, martial artsmaster, and ultimately rich dude with mind-bowing capability in battle. Take this rich, strong genius, and pit him against a class-A opponent, like Sub-Zero.
Batman can't really fight back against being frozen like that. Yeah, he's fast, but when Sub-Zero makes a 100-foot thick wall of ice around him, and makes it cave in on him, how is Batman going to get out of that? Batman has no "actual" superpower. Batman's suerpowers are just as strong as Stryker's, to put it briefly. He can fight REALLY well, that's been established. But is he really as strong as we think hi to be? No, he's only human, with the limits of any other normal person on Earth. He has no super-strength, he's just really well trained. Sub-Zero, also, is really well trained. He spent his entire life training with the Lin Kuei. It's not like he doesn't know his way around a fist.

And callng most MK characters stupid?
From my knowledge, it takes a lot to be a sorcerer of immense power, to conquer realms, or to be a member of a secret agency. Raiden may have been viewed as stupid, and he is, but generalize all of MK off of that?

And let's not forget the power of many artifacts.

The Kriss sword, a blessed magical blade that has the power to purify it's wielder of evil.

Shinnok's Amulet, a mystical device made by the Elder Gods themselves as a tool of mass power, and a very MAGICAL item in that sense.

The Kamidogu. Again, mystical artifacts made by the Elder Gods to help their champion on his journey. They are so immensely powerful that no one person can simultaneously wield 2 at a time, which is why Onaga needed Shinnok's amulet, which has the power to fuse them all into one, usable by a single person. They can be used to merge entire realms together, to even meld the Elder Gods themselves into you.

And yes, a I said before, I am an MK Trivia guy, not a DC Trivia guy. If you have a debate for me, please, explain further so I know what I'm up against. I'll explain anything you may not know if you'll do the same for me.

Liu Kang died by a simple neck snap. And like I said, MK could take on most of DC's human characters... but Supes would beat any MK character. Flash would beat any MK character. GL would beat any MK character. Supes isn't that weak to magic, by the way, it's not like kryptonite to him. He's just vulnerable to it, he can be hurt by it.


They're too strong. It's no contest.

Batman? No. MK characters could beat him. That'd be more of an even fight, though I think MK characters would be at an advantage. Batman is a strategist... he's vulnerable when he's in a straight up fight. Not saying he can't handle a fight, but he doesn't win with brute force. If you pit Scorpion and Batman against each other, straight up, Scorpion would beat him. Batman could easily take out Scorpion, though, if he was stalking him or something.

Granted, Superman is, with little argument, the strongest character to ever be in an MK game. But considering he AND Raiden are what it took to defeat Dark Kahn (though, of course, with MKvDCU being non-canon, this isn't very important) together, there's a pretty big piece of Dark Kahn's strength that Superman has trouble against.

Green Lantern, as long as he has the will to go on and a fully charged ring, he'll massacre a lot of poeple from MK. (Personally, I believe Green Lantern is the strongest DC character there is, but that's for a different time.)

Nope, when they move a planet, then they will be able to at least put up a fight against DC tops, but lose in the end.

The only MK character that might be able to hang in there for a moment with someone like the Spectre is The One Being... I seriously doubt it, though.

The Elder Gods seemed really underwhelming when they empowered Raiden and he still had a time with Shao Kahn.

I think like the only characters that could really fight the top tiers is Raiden, Shinnok, Shang and Quan Chi. Noting that Shang and Shinnok could both have an advantage by morphing into eachother and fucking with the DC characters. Idk though honestly Raiden in non mortal form would probably be the only one capable of beating them.

But yeah like the bottom tier fights like Sindel vs Black Canary/Silver Banshee would be interesting, and one that I've always wanted to see is KABAL VS THE FLASH. Seriously. I think Kabal would probably lose, only because the flash could destroy the respirator in the blink of an eye but whatever lol.

Kabal vs Flash? That wouldn't even be a match.

But no way in hell Raiden, Shang, Quan and Shinnok are going to put up a fight against powerhouses like Wonder Woman, Supes and Captain Marvel.

DC top tier characters can get pounded orbit all the way down to earth and get up without a scratch. No one from Mortal Kombat could hope to survive that.

Well, people in Mortal Kombat have their skull smashed into bits, or have their neck severed, and continue to fight on as if it were just a punch. Now that you think about it...
Meat could survive anything! He can be BEHEADED and still survive. If you think about it, Meat could technically be a top-tier MK character.

The One Being would only match top-tier DC Characters? I highly dubt this for a few reasons;
1. He feeds off of the Elder Gods. He literally turns the ultimate beings into his bitch. That's saying something about him/ it.
2. He liteally is the most powerful thing to ever exist. The only thing that could be done to sto him from destroying the Ultimate Beings was to split him into the Realms.
3. The One Being is everything. The One Being is the equivalent to Superman as comparing Superman to a fly and the One Being a Rhinocerus. Really, the One Being is everything, he IS Superman, he IS Raiden, he IS Shinnok. Literally all things he can do. That's even more OP than the original Superman.

Really, can anybody think of how the One Being could be stopped by the DC Universe?
