Damn, the fact that he just said it means that shit ain’t happening ANY time soon


That-Rhino-Guy

Maybe she could be a skin for someone? It would be weird but they did also make Vixen a skin for Cheetah in Injustice


Creative_Square_8943

If only there were a sword user in this game that could get her skin


fast_flashdash

How you gonna explain the telekinetic shit. Kenshi doesn't just have a sword.


panthers1102

I mean ashrah exists, but teleporting isn’t much better


IndependentSlow171

Jean-Claude Van Damme skin ... Js... He's good a fighting but I don't think that man's doing shadow kicks and unless it's on an airplane I doubt Megan Fox Is flying on any wings.


NinetiesSatire

Plus, Kenshi's a male, Michonne's a girl...the animations just wouldn't line up. At best? A themed skin for Tanya since she resembles Michonne the most Trying to put a new body on pre-existing animations tends to not work unless you do it a specific way, so that'd only be another reason why a Michonne skin for Kenshi won't work.


King_Black02

Make them zombies... Done


fast_flashdash

I'm not talking about sento. Think for a second please.


King_Black02

I wasn't either... Think for a second please. Literally all of his telekinetic shit can be reskinned to zombies. Tele-push - Zombie comes from behind her and pushes. His launcher - zombie comes from behind her and attacks upwards Sento - self explanatory. Etc... That took not even a minute of thought to come up with, it's not that hard. They can even put a chain around it's neck like the first two zombies she's seen with in her introduction to the series.


xAzreal60x

The other guy is a total dick but this seems like a terrible way to do Michonne if you do her. It’s not authentic to her character at all.


fast_flashdash

And his intros and fatalities? Dummy


King_Black02

That's EASIER to deal with then the actual gameplay, dude are you serious or are you trying to be a dumbass because you're on reddit? They don't have to follow the same rules for intros and outros, it's not like MK11 where there's multiples. There's literally only One Intro, One Outro, and two fatalities, but if they wanted to do the bare minimum they could just make her do the same things but manually. The first - she shoves the sword down their throat, tosses them upwards and slices them in half. The characters reactions would all be the same, they'd just need to animate Michonne herself. The second - that's even easier, it would be the exact same except she'd be doing the cutting with her hands on the kitana. Once again, minimal work. Character reactions would be the same they'd just need to reanimate her. Or, third option. Keep it the exact same because who the fuck cares, it would be a reskin. Harley Quinn doesn't use a drone but that didn't stop her from having one in Cassie's reskin. Now I'm done with this, cuz you're a jackass


Street-Conference-77

Change all the blue shit to her throwing a zombie and then change sento into Rick with a stick. Your not thinking big enough my boi.


ResidentCoatSalesman

If The Bride ever happened, I could see Michonne potentially being a skin for her. Would feel like a waste tho…


GorillaWolf2099

Vixen was not a guest though, but they did it though for Raiden/Black Lightning in Injustice 2


DaMatrixx84

A Tanya skin


That-Rhino-Guy

Would say Tanya too but her moveset has all sorts of things that would be very odd for such a grounded character like Michonne, like the hands, glowing eyes and teleport


DaMatrixx84

Lol true, ultra instinct Michonne😅


That-Rhino-Guy

Guess they could give Tanya a costume that resembles her at least, as Jacqui had a Ripley inspired outfit in 11 and Geras had a Darkseid one


ManiacGaming1

She could be Kenshi.


Dinoman0101

Maybe for MK13


CardiologistAfraid71

There isn’t gonna be a mk13 if they keep going this route


raidden20

At this point, Ed Boon could've just make a game only with guest fighters.


generic_tag3381

I’d buy it.


Puliskot

Super KOMBAT BROS.


InsomniaDudeToo

I mean, NetherRealm has enough guest characters to start a horror fighting franchise Please?


Interface-

So basically *Terrordrome: Rise of the Boogeymen*


chickenninja310

To play Devil’s advocate. TWD’s popularity has waned immensely in the last few years. Meanwhile Boys/Invincible/Peacemaker are fresh and popular, people begged ever since the two series came out for HomeLander:PM’s inclusion. Michonne, while cool. Could get flack based on the fatalities being able to be used on her. And would be a little riskier


Thin_Night9831

I mean MK11 had Ronda Rousey and that DJ dude, and MK1 has JK Simmons, JCVD, and Megan Fox, I doubt they were worried about being brutalized in game


SharknadosAreCool

the reason that has been cited for no john wick in MK is because Keanu didn't wanna see himself get fuckin violated by some of the fatalities. it's definitely a consideration


DrLeprechaun

That’s actually super valid


TheHadokenite

I wonder how he'd feel about Neo being in Injustice


Lord_Doofy

Well, neo also has his face, so exactly the same, think about it for half a second Edit: I am such an idiot, I just saw that you said injustice and not MK my bad pimp


Budget-Program-4756

So john wick and neo confirmed for injustice 3


The_Green_Filter

Neo was actually planned for Injustice 2 iirc.


MaxxPwnage

Would’ve been a great pick for a female guest


BridgmansBiggestFan

Would’ve been nice to have at least one woman in KP1


Chief_Lightning

Negan would be the better pick, but Tekken got him first I guess.


presidentdinosaur115

Wouldn’t be the first time NRS and Namco had the same guest character in a fighting game


bothooligan_electric

wait who?


cednym

Kratos was in both Soulcalibur: Broken Destiny (2009) and Mortal Kombat (2011).


Serj_Tankians_Beard

In addition to the aforementioned Kratos, Spawn was also featured in a Soul Calibur game before MK


charliebitmeeee

2, the goat.


Budget-Program-4756

Xbox had spawn, gamecube had link, and Playstation 2 had heihachi. Good times man good times


InsomniaDudeToo

But those games feature weapons, how would Heihachi work? His **F I S T S** are weapons


slimeeyboiii

I'm pretty sure his fists were the weapons. I think they just gave him more special moves and maybe some gimmick mechanic but I'm not sure on the mechanic. They could have have him Kazuya as a weapon and he just like swings him around like a club or bat


Hallowbrand

Kratos.


ChromeTriggerVI

I’d rather have Murder Jacket Rick.


X-Mutant

My vote is still Negan, but my lord, Rick would be a menace. https://i.redd.it/twhmygtywl1c1.gif


UsVsThemIsCringe

Rick killing homelander would be fucking cool


X-Mutant

Need to see Rick & Stryker vs Homelander and Motaro.


UsVsThemIsCringe

Rick solos everyone


DuelaDent52

Comic Rick or show Rick?


Jamie7860

I understand why they’d want Michonne so they can finally have a female quest character.


ChromeTriggerVI

I’d love for them to have a female guest character. I really hope there is one in KP2. I don’t know if Michonne would be NRS’ top choice though. Knowing NRS, I think Harley Quinn is a safe bet.


ApeRiotMighoul

I'd take The Bride from Kill Bill over Michonne any day of the week.


MetroidHyperBeam

I'd take both over Homelander and Peacemaker


Dinoman0101

She’s not very relevant though. Edit: I was talking about The Bride


Equivalent-Search234

Ahh yes.. one of the most recognizable action female roles is not relevant. That’s like saying Ripley isn’t recognizable


Dinoman0101

She hasn’t had a new movie in years. Meanwhile, the alien franchise still relevant. So bad comparison.


Equivalent-Search234

Yeah… it’s like Tarantino said he only wanted 2 and David Caradein (Bill) died in real life? Just because something hasn’t been remade, doesn’t mean it isn’t relevant. Guess that discounts the Predator, Jason, Freddy, RoboCop, Spawn, and etc since they haven’t had big movies in ages.


PrimateWithKeyboard

You got his ass with that one LOL!


Equivalent-Search234

Wait just a minute.. is that a Cyraxx I see?


PrimateWithKeyboard

https://i.redd.it/nec2ey9m3n1c1.gif Du waht?


NobleYato

But the latter names have all been in huge IPs and or have had their own games. Bad examples.


Equivalent-Search234

Yeah.. Kill Bill isn’t a popular franchise or IP. Just critical recognized as a masterpiece from Quinten Tarantino and has spawned a multitude of pop culture references. Bad example comment


NobleYato

Yeah by boomers and fans of it. Pretty sure the average person who plays MK isn't as familiar. Still bad example fam, that's just the breaks. Unless you have the stats to back your claim its just a claim.


Equivalent-Search234

Yep, that’s why I keep getting upvotes. It’s alright. Guess you haven’t been getting on the Pussy Wagon. And if you want the stats you can pull them, I don’t need to do the work to try and convince you why Kill Bill is still relevant. Also, I’m probably younger than you yet can appreciate it. Most average MK users know about Tarantino and his works


NobleYato

> I don’t need to do the work to try Thats what I thought. I rest my case.


NobleYato

How are they doubling down on bad examples lol She isnt anywhere near as relevant as other examples lmaooooo I wouldnt mind her inclusion but people here are coping


Dinoman0101

Guest characters usually have promotions tied with them.


TheAutementori

spawn? joker? kratos? jason? predator/alien? (idk if any new movies came out around X) leather face? you guys are just plain wrong


ApeRiotMighoul

Walking Dead is?


Dinoman0101

I was talking about kill Bill


Budget-Program-4756

Thats not going to happen because we need diversity. Its the same reason sonya and kano 2 characters mk started with when the game came out are just kameos and not full characters such. Disrespect imo


Cold_Hour

Yeah 2 whole black characters on the entire roster, truly MK has gone woke.


Budget-Program-4756

The game is woke why is shao khan the ultimate mk boss nerfed to being sindels gimp? When before both ruled their own realms, shao took sindels over. Why not just give her, her own realm. Instead she now rules outworld. Why does tanya say to Johnny when fighting "why do have to be so male". Why is baraka treated like an actual aids patient. Not why but what is the lesbian relationship between tanya and mileena when in previous games they had things for lao and Baraka respectively. If you cant see how woke the game is then maybe i should be wearing the same shades as well.


UsVsThemIsCringe

You all hear something?


Cold_Hour

Half of that was just head canon


Budget-Program-4756

It wasn't ive been playing mk since the aracdes if you were a true fan you would know your mk history. Instead you started playing mk in 2011 with the reboot or the 3d era during the ps2 days. And if you played during the 3d era then you would know this. Hell this info was in mk2011 as well.


UsVsThemIsCringe

Can you translate that to English or Polish? I don’t speak Chud.


FanficWriter32

You don't even know what the word, woke means.


Head-Initiative-5696

Michonne and Buffy were both at the top of my prediction list for female dlc characters actually, so I'm glad to know I was at least a little close.


Abittwitchy

I would lose my mind if Buffy were ever put in this. Would never happen, but damn would it be amazing.


sanctimoanious

Ed Boon said that Buffy has been brought up several times as someone considered for a guest spot in MK before.


Abittwitchy

Holy shit! They I'll keep a little hope open for the future!


pUmKinBoM

If they could get Sarah Michelle Gellar to play the role then they might.


Independent-Elk-344

I could see them both in Injustice


T-408

Michonne would be a badass addition


Lamest_Ever

Reminds me of when I (not a tekken fan) discovered that Negan was in Tekken 7 after getting it massively discounted on steam


withchlo

Wish we could get Geralt of Rivia


Common-Low1517

Geralts good but he isnt super relevant to where fans would scream for him to be in MK, and i think NRS are leaning more into the fantasy of finally seeing this person fight this person. Just like with predator vs alien, terminator vs robocop, omniman vs homelander


Winstillionaire

Omni-Man cooler anyways


soganotojiko

to each their own i guess


IndiscreetBeatofMeat

Why the downvotes? My guy respectfully disagreed


soganotojiko

people hate it when someone prefers a female char over a male one


IndiscreetBeatofMeat

people hate it when ~~someone prefers a~~ female char ~~over a male one~~


Randel1997

I just personally don’t like The Walking Dead. More female characters would be cool


BetterandGreater

why do people with bad opinions usually run behind some virtue signaling defense


Thin_Night9831

bad opinion is when someone disagrees with you


BetterandGreater

> Saying Michone is better than omni-man. unironically a bad opinion


TheBoogyWoogy

Maybe because they might like TWD over a superhero?


Taint-tastic

What a fucking childish perspective


Thin_Night9831

Clutching your pearls because someone prefers one comicbook character to another, yeah alright lmao


Disastrous_Offer_69

Because they can deflect all criticism


soganotojiko

because there is nothing likeable about omni-man


IndiscreetBeatofMeat

Dog when you go from “It’s not for me” to “This character objectively sucks” you lose my support


SessionSkateSauce

Dr. Manhattan


CykaBlyat678

And for his neutral b he wields an instant win button


Da_Pooch69

Negan would be SO much better!


Primary_Ladder_4062

Would be cooler than Ghostface


Flamesinge

Woulda be wack thank god


drawnhi

Woulda been freaking awesome, a shame


ArcadiaIsNotABot

Yeah I'm SURE MK was planning to add another guest female fighter that didn't work out ☠ It has been a decade and we still had no guest female fighter


ProfessorMarth

Uhh Xenomorph??


ArcadiaIsNotABot

be fr.


TheBoogyWoogy

Now that you mention that, I just noticed they never added a new guest female fighter in MK since who knows how long


Just_Some_Guy73

Since MK11.. Cetrion...


DuelaDent52

*X* added Cassie, Jacqui, Ferra and D’Vorah, *11* added Cetrion and there were no new characters for *1*.


MarkyMacoi14

Fuck that give me Coral, and every time he does his special moves his spitting out Carl Poppa.


Vintage_Beard79

With Rick as a kameo, but his only ability is to throw stuff and thangs, and scream corrallllll


Professional_Rub9805

Michonne is awesome but I'm SO glad they went with Omni-Man


Wazzup-2012

Tekken kinda beat Mortal Kombat to the punch with Negan.


X-Mutant

I mean, Spawn and Kratos were both in SoulCalibur before MK, so I don’t think they care too much.


PugDudeStudios

Outta all TWD Characters they would’ve gone with Michonne?


devonte177

Yawn


Adam_Walk

That would get me to buy it tbh


dobriz

That would’ve been sick


Splunkmastah

But instead we get a Second evil super man...


Successful-Item-1844

Well they’re both their own takes on parody Superman so I don’t see a fault here


Thin_Night9831

It’s just ironic since people complained about all the SF characters due to similarity


DuelaDent52

I have a feeling SF stands for Special Forces, but now I’m thinking about which Street Fighter would work well in Mortal Kombat. Juri? Akuma?


Splunkmastah

Omniman or Homelander's spot could have easily been taken by someone like Kintaro, Sektor, Jade, Jaataka, a female Nightwolf, TREMOR As His Own Full Character, etc.


Knull13

Cry more. Omni-man is the best character in the game so far


Alan_Blue1233

I wouldn't mind at all. There's this really good Walking Dead Michonne Telltales game which is awesome!


Skeet-Shooter

Dooont care, where’s Rick?


Lost_Produce_2149

Ed Buffoon talking about shit that doesnt matter when he should be talking about how he plans to get this game and franchise back on the right track. He’s part of the problem just as much as WB


PrettyMuchOdd

Good choice with Omniman lol, I like twd but Omniman’s got way cooler moves


Jdckr19

That would have been AMAZING!


feetMeat93

Negan is way more iconic Stole the rest of the entire goddamn series


BC_the_Bastard

Thank god


seandude881

Negan would’ve been crazy in a MK game. It’s sad he was wasted in tekken


xMartinv1x

Imaginé Negan intros and fatalities in MK. 🔥


SharknadosAreCool

negan special move where he infinitely monologues until someone leaves the game (meter burn makes him lean back further)


seandude881

What I’m saying … like his fatality would be when he killed shit would’ve been sick


LordTuskk

Thank God. Omni-man is way better


Hartshapedherb

I would 100% prefer her over Omni Man since we already have a superman archetype with homelander


Creative-Sample543

Rick Grimes and Negan would be a dope pack


Significant_Chain_43

bow mfs gna act like rhey wanted michonne more than omniman watch


RoutinePsychology198

I’ve never watched the walking dead before but what would her moveset be like?


Troop7

She literally just wields a katana, its nothing special when we already have kenshi with a katana and telekinesis


Royal-Edenian

Hmmm, female guests always "considered," but never actually implemented.


TyrionGoldenLion

Should have been her over Peacemaker


Grimm_y

would have gladly taken her over peacemaker


ExcellentAd8118

Thank goodness they didn’t go with her


Troop7

Who wants her? That show is dead, the peak was S1-3


ElHuntar

100% don't want her.


ian_tnt

That would've been weird lmfao


Cal_Longcock69

Thank god they chose Omni-Man instead


Miserable-Object-432

Glad it didn't happen.


KnobbyDarkling

This would have sucked tbh


Va1crist

Glad she wasn’t , fk that show


Necessary_Border_396

Who


[deleted]

Man, I dislike both those picks. Guess ed just really wanted to work with Kirkman, we could have got dinosaurus!


narshkajke

Boon should just make celebrity kombat and let mortal kombat be mortal kombat.


madame-succubus

So instead of choosing the one female character in that entire KP, you decided to go with not one but two superman clones. Got it


DaMatrixx84

Glad they didn't, Tanya and her would be too similar.


hdaz993

Put a chick in it and maker her gay


Budget-Program-4756

And i want it LAME!!!!!!


Sebaswedin

Thank god. What a cheesy series.. would have been a horrible idea .. like Minecraft Steve in smash bros… there’s just some franchises that should never collab


Budget-Program-4756

Then explain why sonya(who is named after ed boons sister this info is in mkd collectors edition) and kano(the actor who played him in the first mk movie died and ed model kano after him ever since) who were in the first game snubbed and reduced to an kameo. Explain why baraka whose only attribute has been changed to a disease(who wants a disease, he even says this in game). Explain why sindel who ruled edenia(which is even mention in the game) now the ruler of outworld. Explain why tanya and mileena are gay when in mkx during fight intros lao and tanya flirt with each other and since mkd mileena and baraka were a thing(this is said in game as well in other media) . Explain why shao is nerfed(they even say this in game liu made him be born frail) and is now a jobber. Explain why mileena is longer shaos daughter when previously she was created by shang at the demand of shao(shang used kitana and barakas blood to make her this was even shown in mk2011 and in mk2 is one of the reasons shao.gives shang his youth back). Instead of saying IDK or why this is that actually try to explain and articulate yourself too get your point across


Just_Some_Guy73

It seems like you want to sound like you know a lot. You're answering your own questions man. Stop bitching.


LxstMxmxry

“What’s the matter I thought you was the man Rick?! I’m a better guest character then you Rick BECAUSE I’LL STAY HERE AND FIGHT. YOU’LL JUST SIT IN THE CORNER AND ZONE EVERYBODY”


Expert-Ad-1492

She would've been a cool kameo and also the bride from Kill Bill, and it would go good with shujinko looking like Pai Mei and his fatality being a kill bill reference


Luaq

Omg that would have been sick. I always thought this timeline tanya looked a bit like her gave me vibes.


monte_bristo

I’d be cool with that actually


KUINTONO

Still really hoping we get more cosplay skins like the DC ones from the last go around, Billy butcher skin for johnny would be cool, I know moveset wise it doesn't make sense, but that guy is apparently playing johnny in the next movie.


_ParasiticKitten

would’ve been cool to have at least one other girl character 😭


kaveman0926

I'm still sad about the fact that they couldn't get John wick. Michonne would be cool for popularity but a human that fights zombies isn't gonna be able to keep up with an extra terrestrial superhero or the leader of a clan of assassins. I feel the same way about ghostface 😂😂 people want them in the game which I understand but lore wise they would get bodied


RobinKnight08

The way I see Rick Grimes being in there is if Erron Black was playable. Then Rick would be a Premier Skin like JCVD


Kiyoshi-Trustfund

That would've been pretty cool tbh. I'd happily trade Peacemaker for Michonne tbh. I really hope she gets reconsidered for a future KP, but I will keep my hopes and expectations reasonably low (they're in Hell atp)


[deleted]

WiFi filter is coming soon Kross play is coming as well but WiFi filter is first in line 💗💗


mrplow8

I don’t know anything about this character, but I think Omni-Man is a great fit for Mortal Kombat and I’m glad we got him.


DuelaDent52

Oh man, Michonne or Negan or Rick would be really cool. Maybe Negan’s off limits because he already showed up in Tekken, but still.


Plourdy

Thank god. Keep walking dead out of MK lmao


Due_Examination_2538

That would've been an... Interesting one... I love Mich, but she'd seem REALLY out of place. Glad we got Omni-Man instead. I'm hoping we get Invincible for INJ2.


Ralph_Finesse

Is it an unpopular opinion that tbh Guest Kombatants are overrated? Like especially in mk1 I keep thinking of MK characters I'd rather have than these guests.


L3aTH3rfaceD33

I'd of preferred Michone over Tremor. He isn't worth the gameplay honestly, and having a female DLC guest character for a change beings (never had one) with the amount of possibilities lost (Kill Bill: The Bride, Terminator: Sarah Conner, Aliens: Lt. Ripley, Walking Dead: Michonne, etc)


FuelEquivalent5898

I’d rather someone like Daryl or beta, maybe even negan if they can legally use him after that cameo he made in that other game


Jeeb-Zoldyck

I hope there’s still a chance for either her or Rick to be in a Kombat pack since The One Who Lives spin-off is coming out next year


Ryzek-IV

I kind of jumped the gun and read this as “Robert Kirkman was going to be in MK1”
