Smo.... Locked??? Damnit!!
Well Erma....Locked??? GAHHHHHHHHHH!!!!
How about Rept..... Look to La Luna??? FFFFFFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUU

You know what??? Grrr... BARAKA!!! Yes Baraka.

Shooting out sparks
Getting on one knee like he's about to propose then doing the monkey (dance)
Spinning for no damn reason
Walking forward while doing the monkey
And putting baby powder on his right spike right before pimp slapping someone in the neck with it.

Oh it will be a glorious day.... Untill i Unlock Smoke and Ermac...

Probably the first one in line, I always want to beat the game in order of the roster, that is kind of ritual to me, and I feel much love for ALL characters of the mk1 to 3 era, except for NOob Saibot, but i'm sure he won't be in the main roster anyway, he's probably a secret character. :p

I'll do one or two versus with my roommate, and I will pick Johnny Cage.
Then I'll do the story mode.

Mine is going to be johnny cage lol. He is my favorite character

Kitana, Sub-Zero, Scorpion, Mileena.

in that order unless Kitana is locked from the beginning.

Kung Lao for me.

If he's DLC most def.

art lean if he's in it and if he's unlocked at the start otherwise a shadow priest if they are in it or else johnny cage

Raiden or Scorp, followed by either Liu Kang, Sub Zero or Ermac.

SLAYdel, of course.
Kitana.
Nightwolf.
Kabal.

Depends who's locked and who isn't.

Probably Sub-Zero.
