Darrius is good character,may be not on a first place favourite characters on every fan,but,it has something in it,looks like Blade,but,he is leader on a Chaosrealms,weirdest me in it his fatality,i don/t know where do they get the idea that he stacked every hands and legs to troughthout the body.Baraka is always been classic character with two knife in a hands,he was only who don`t have you allies,just enemies and servants,always dangerous and wantly fights,but,he always lose on any better characters.I want is passed Darrius,but,Baraka is betters than him and he passed!!!

Yea but Dairou is interesting, not saying that he isn't. I find all characters in the newer realms important to the future of MK. Why? Because we have to realise that NRS thrives off of the energy of the fans. We make things possible to a certain extent. Our myths of Ermac made him, Our complaints of the cyber smoke conversion resulted in the return of human smoke (maybe we'll get both :)), BLAZE - nuff said. SCARLET- nuff said.

Now we are given new characters and we as a whole just bash them and reject them. Instead of me myself giving pointers on how to improve on Hsu Hao, I just say "get rid of him and forget he exists". We all have that same problem with certain new generation characters. It's like newer ninjas are so easily accepted versus newer characters like Darrius & CO.

BECAUSE NINJAS ARE FUCKING AWESOME....and I mean that...

Honestly Darrius was a good character in MKD but Baraka is classic. Come on people are gonna pick the older characters over the newer ones. But I still like Ashrah, Havik, Nitara, and Bo Rai Cho. LOL

Baraka had my favorite ending in MK Gold. I don't know why, I just liked it.

Sub Zero will in the end so win he's in 1 form or another been in every main Mk game

Baraka had the 2nd or 3rd best fatality in Mortal Kombat II.

By the way, Mick, just end it here. Baraka already won at this point.

Oof!! This round suuuucckkks!

Li Mei is one of the best of the new generation, and I can't wait to see her return.

But Kung Lao is my all time favorite. It hurts my heart because I really wanna see Li Mei advance, but I gotta go with my boy Kung Lao.

I find this decision to be a tough one. Love Lei Mei's new look way more than her look in DA. I know NRS is too chicken shit to do this thanks to the fans and their addiction to classic charecters, but I would love to see an MK adventure game featuring Lei Mei and her struggle to win Shang Stung's tourney pre-MKDA.

I hate the new kung lao but he gets my vote because I like the Clint Eastwood feel of the old Lao; so cool. Here's to the old Lao...

Kung Lao Kung Pow gets my vote.

Though I do have to say the design of Kung Lao in MK9 just looked bad and overall dirty. But design doesn't matter. (Exception: Mokap)

Kung Lao and it's not even close.

I love them both but Kung Lao is my second favourite character in the series so he gets my vote. I still remember seeing Kung Lao's photo in a gaming magazine when MK2 first came out and I couldn't get over how cool he looked which was amplified greatly by his hat. He remains cool and awesome to this day.

Shaolin Monks ruined Kung Lao for me and MK9 did little to fix that.

Li Mei

Kung Lao is my all-time favorite character. So obviously I vote him. But I never liked Li Mei either so I'll be happy to see her lose.

BARAKA!!!!!! is who i voted for. ( DOH i mean kung lao. )

Baraka no contest.

Dat hat...

Man, I'm glad Quan Chi advanced to the second round, but it was close though. I show love to Shinnok too.

Li Mei

I miss her crazy leg spins.

Oh hello twin brother. Let's make an alliance and say fuck you to Shang Tsung!

But in all seriousness, I don't think Quan Chi will be getting past Scorps in round 2.

Aw I loved Li Mei. Definitely my second favorite of the new characters we got in the last generation of MK but Kung Lao has always been one of my favorites.

However NRS needs to get it to-fucking-gether with him. Leave that horrible MKSM personality in that universe and restore his personality to the way it used to be.

Another tie, another vote withheld.

Mick, end it here, Kung Lao already won at this point.
