On the subject of whether or not Luren/Uresula "fit" in with MK or not (since it's been brought up like... Five times now), my thought is... Just because MK doesn't have something like them yet, doesn't mean it shouldn't. I hoped (and still do) that voters would be open minded to new and different influences, as opposed to the same stale influences and stereotypes that have dominated the game. In a world of cyborgs, centaurs, anachronistic Chinese influences, a queen with magical hair, perpetually mysterious Native American "badasses", Luren/Uresula don't seem nearly as out of place as the characters that are already in the series just because they lack the typical influences of other members of the cast. grin

Rik'Ki Remnant
Luren-Uresula Dai Kahn
phantom saphira
Gragtek Gus

Here are my thoughts on these brackets:

Rik'Ki: I really like this one. She fits in MK with her whole mysterious/tribal warrior/witch persona. I liked her powers and fatalities way more than I liked her story but she is a great idea overall so I don't really mind. I like that she sings also during battle. Also omg at that worm fatality...that was even uncomfortable for me reading it :P

Remnant: I have reviewd him before.

My vote goes to Rik'Ki no doubt. She would look awesome in the game.

Luren-Uresula: First of all wow at the pictures. Nice job there. Now about the character I dig the idea of a tag-team. They have great powers and I enjoyed the fatalities as well. You put a lot of effort into this one, you can tell but what bothers me is that they dont look or sound MK at all. They dont fit in this game and I 100% agree that they would fit Soul Calibur better. The animal spirits, their costumes, everything screams SC to me for some reason.

Dai Kahn: I didn't initially like the idea of another Shao Kahn coz they look similar and sound similar a bit too much for me. But reading through it, it wasn't bad. Way too many unneeded specials though. Most of them are dash-and-hit and you could leave some of them out.

So both characters are good and even though Dai Kahn fits the game better I have to vote for the tag team just for the originality and effort he put into them.

Phantom: I've reviewed him as well

Saphira: That's basically Jade with another weapon. Same appearance, same colours, same story. Not a big fan of clones.

My vote goes to Phantom no question.

Gragtek: He sounds like a mix of 10 characters. An assassin from Outworld (dont remember how many we have already), working for Kahn, having a technologically enhanced eye like Kano, using flamethrowers like Sektor, using acib bombs like Reptile...dunno I dont really like this one sorry.

Gus: I've already reviewed him.

I have to vote for Gus here :P Even if he is a joke character, he is way funnier than any of the ones we got in the past (I'm looking at you Mokap)

-Rik'Ki
-Luren Uresula

Rik'Ki - I still have no idea where I came up with the chicken x-ray...

Luren-Uresula - Seemed very different from all the other characters I read

Phantom and Gragtek - Felt they had a stronger character

Rik’Ki.

Here are my likes for Rik’Ki. Liked your primary attire. Thought your bio and ending was great. Really dug the spiritual cat special and fatality 1. drawing was neat.

Here are my dislikes for Rik’Ki. Disappointed that there wasn’t an alternate outfit. To much use of chanting. Fighting style was kind of blah.

Overall score a decent 7.
There was an alternate outfit, she looks more like a cat with her tribal mask and clothing. But thank you for the critique, especially everyone else too!

Is it just me or did everyone forget about the Noob-Smoke tag-team in MK: Deception. I liked the way Midway experimented with that in the game. I wouldn't be surprised to see a tag team character in the future.

Up until this point, I've been of the few users to have actually mentioned the similarity to Noob-Smoke.

Luren-Uresula is comparable to Noob-Smoke, but with a lot more creative talent behind "their" plot.


As evidenced by this quote, not everyone failed to recognize that Luren-Uresula bear some (albeit slim) resemblance to Noob-Smoke, if only for the "tag team" aspect.

Response to acidslayer's post: As I have previously said, my lady here has been around long before MK's Black Dragon operative, and as I've said, I will NEVER change her name. No, I'm sticking to my guns.

NetherRealm Studios, get behind me!
I WAS HERE FIRST!!!
(Gutsy of me to say that, isn't it? XP)

Group A: Rik'Ki
Group B: Luren & Uresula
Group C: Phantom
Group D: Gragtek

I like the idea of a tag team here, and there was so much thought put into the pair, so Luren and Uresula have my vote in Group B.
As for Group D, it does seem like Gragtek is quite a hybrid of so many things, but at least he seems to have some sort of ultimate purpose, so he gets my vote.

i'd like to hear feedback on my character Sphere the good and bad. i was able to put more time on this character than my last character from the previous tournament.

also i'm sorry for not having long detailed feedback. i tend to post short stuff because of the amount of entrys in these tournaments.

if i upset anybody i didn't mean to i was just giving my thoughts.

also ekimaru i'm suprised you did not use the photos from your drawings to make as your avatar and signature. that would of been cool.

Her primart appearance reminds me a little too much of Sonya, and her alternate appearance has me a bit lost.

The overall concept of her bio, being a mercenary for the Elder Gods, is very nice and sounds like something that needs to be done. However, I'm not sure how it fits the continuity with the alternate timeline. Which future is she from, exactly?

I like her special moves a lot, though they too remind me of Sonya.

Her fatalities are pretty freakin' sweet. For me, that's her best attribute.


Overall, I think Sphere is a pretty good character, but there is too much about her that reminds me of Sonya.

Yeah and everyone remember, it is merely HIS opinion, one guy. His opinion does not count as everyone's views on here, nor will his opinion alone decide who the winners are. A character he may not like very much, for example, you may like a lot, for example. It's all about perspective, to each his own. His favorite characters in the tournament may not be your favorites and the ones he dislikes the most, may be your favorites. acidslayer is not the judge of the competition, he's just talking and saying HIS thoughts about the characters.So anyone who was bothered by acidslayer's opinion review, don't let it bug you. We all worked hard on our characters. It's only his opinion. Everyone has a different opinion.

& acidslayer, as far as Sphere goes, as someone mentioned before, her story does have potential, but her character doesn't seem too fitting as someone who works for the elder gods. Sphere seems to show no shame in the way she acts, flicking people off and what not. Thats who the elder gods would hire? Not so sure about that.. Maybe you could let her have a little bit of dignity because her victory pose was undignified.
Her story was also a bit short, as well as her ending. So it's difficult to understand her backstory. Her personality doesnt seem to match her backgroud history with the elder gods. She does seem like she could fit better in another game maybe. Her entrance and victory pose were also random.
Her moveset is also a bit confusing and she doesn't seem to have a signature
fighting style. It's almost as if her moveset was compiled from a bunch of different moves and a bunch of different weapons that it becomes a confusing tangled web moveset. The futuristic thing is cool, but perhaps you could've built upon that more, perhaps. Some of her moves also seem like they would take a while to pull off, and the bubble move seems out of place.
And with all her battle damages, it's hard to imagine what she'll look like after getting more battle damage.
But she does have potential, like with a bit more thought and focus into her design, character, and moveset, she could be a cool character.
Perhaps she could fit better in a different game though.

Group A: Rik'Ki; I liked the idea of a dust based fighter, but Rik'Ki's story is kool and she's an interesting change visually

Group B: Alloy; always gotta go for your own guy unless the opponent is AMAZING.

I like Sogratse, but there's some things that don't quite feel right. I'd prefer a story taking place in the current timeline. His speech in his bio doesn't fit his entrance/exit personality. I also don't think Havik would make such grand deals as it would require him to form plans. I do like having more ChaosRealmians, but there's more to chaos than just rage.

Group C: The Simberleen; love the idea of a ChoasRealm virus!

Group D: Persephone; simply because WTH is up with Gus? I was actually on board with a whitetrash fighter, but if you were going to go that route at least do it seriously...

I really like the Simberleen. She seems like a wildcard character, someone who could mess things up for both sides.

Thanks much for the positive notes on The Simberleen guys. Yeah, she's intended to be a neutral force, following neither major side of heroes or villains but an obvious threat to both.

While I'm personally not a fan of Alloy, I do try to be objective and he seems to be the better choice. The Simberleen is the very first name I was drawn to when the list was revealed. Further reading shows that she is definitely in the top 5 best entries. The most polished "product" I've read so far. It's really not a fair fight, heh.
