New Characters for MK10

Agreed.

Also, even though Shao Kahn changed the rules for the 2nd tournament, it was still considered a "tournament" by the Elder Gods, which took place in Outworld.
It wasn't until MK3 that Shao Kahn got desperate and the whole "invasion" began, with Sindel's resurrection being the key to Earth.
 
It doesn't matter. Mortal Kombat should center around the Mortal Kombat tournament.
No more invasions or takeovers, every major event in MK from now on should be centered around a martial arts tournament.

And Liu Kang is still the legitimate champion of that tournament. He still has to be at the next tournament to defend his hard-earned championship.

Liu Kang isn't a necessary character. Raiden, Sub-Zero, and Scorpion are though. Johnny Cage is my favorite hero and I'm glad he lived. I think Kai and Shujinko have a lot of potential to be the new Liu Kang and Kung Lao.

Actually, Liu Kang is more necessary than both Sub-Zero and Scorpion as far as the storyline goes. Liu Kang is the champ and is a vital char to defeating the big bads in MK as he has done in the past since his skills are pretty much unmatched in earthrealm and apparently Outword.

Scorpion and Sub Zero have their own separate agenda that really does not have to do with the main plot, tbh. Now Sub Zero(kuai) helps to defend earthrealm, as does Cage, Sonya, etc. But Liu is champ and its ultimately going to be up to him to save earth.
So u saying Liu isnt necessary is totally false.

As for Kai and Shujinko?

Liu Kang, as you and I both mentioned, is the reigning champ, so whether we like it or not, he has a right and a responsibility to defend his title for as long as he remains champ. This might explain why his soul remained among the living after Shang Tsung's death at the end of DA.

As for Sub-Zero and Scorpion, they have the largest fanbases (and I'm a part of both), so omitting them would be suicide.

And Raiden is probably the only one who's a more important hero than Liu Kang; not only is he Liu Kang's mentor, but he's basically the de facto leader of Earthrealm (and certainly the leader of all the heroes).

My thing with Liu Kang is that DA is my favorite MK game out of them all. Liu Kang dying shocked me, and in a good way. I didnt know who would save Earthrealm. It left a void, but that void allowed so many of the other characters, who were just support, to step up and become more prominent. It also allowed for some good new characters to come along in Kenshi, Li Mei, and Bo Rai Cho (yes I said Bo Rai Cho).

So to me I like Liu Kang, but not in the spotlight stealing role he was in. He had become the Superman of Mk. He was undefeatable and I didn't like that. Honestly an anti-hero role, or a mentor role would be great for him. At some point he had to step down as main hero though. Since he couldn't age as a result of winning MK, they had to kill him.

In all honesty it made Shang Tsung and Quan Chi seem like a big threat as well whereas they had played second fiddle to Kahn or Shinnok in the past.

Basically in a nutshell, I like Liu Kang, but do not think he is needed and his absence actually allows for more growth of many other characters because it seems like the good guys all work together to defeat the big bad instead of just being support for Kang who always beats the big bad.

I have no issue with Kang being the main char and beating everyone, that is his purpose. Just like with Goku, Superman, Spiderman, or any other main hero.

I just would like to see him in some struggle every so often with those big bads. Liu just seems to defeat them too easily, IMO.
 
But the prospect of a new MK champion living on excites me. There is so much for winning the MK tournament. I myself, really like Kenshi. What about him?
 
Not if people are eating crotches and shoving things up eachother's asses
Your ideas are terrible, in my humble opinion
