Official February 12th MKX Livestream Thread

Doesn't the combos change a bit for each variation? I did remember hearing "why because this baristions has the easier combos?" When they were showing off Ermac

I gotta disagree. IMO the "norm" has always been "head explodes".
Spoiler:

I'd much rather see him pull the skull apart. I don't know why, it just seems a little more violent.

Agreed.

I dont know where they got that tearing the head apart was the norm.

I want to see him pull the face and skull open like a damn coconut shell and feed on the gooey brain on the inside.

So other than Reptile and Kitana variations, fatalities and art that they're going to be showing today, does anyone think we will be getting any surprises during the stream?

Aside from Reptile and Kitana's variations and Fatalities, I'm not holding my breath for anything else.

Goro's gameplay with his "punchwalk" or showing us the new / returning "ality" would be nice to see, but again, I'd rather lower my expectations and be surprised, rather than expect it and be let down if none of that shows up.
 
We'll definitely see Kitana's X-ray too, along with lots of new intros and little tidbits (like the 'we've seen some alts' from last stream).
 
Yeah I'm really excited to hear some Kitana dialogue, especially with Quan Chi/Raiden/Kung Lao, perhaps we'll get some insight into the circumstances of her resurrection.
 
3 hours left till the stream right??

I'd really like for his fatality to be that in-depth, but if you notice how the camera angle moves to the back of the victim's head, I feel like it'll just be a really quick and simple head pop.

I agree. And it definitely looks like he is trying to crush it.

Sometimes, but not usually. They said that about Mystic Ermac because his tele-slam holds them up for an easy combo. It doesn't do that in the other variations, hence less combo opportunities in those.

Here's Ermac, using him as an example to see how little the variations change from the moveset:

Master of Souls - Adds two moves: one projectile attack and the ability to instantly disappear and reappear at will. The projectile stuns the opponent if Ermac has three souls floating around him. Using the projectile drains the souls and you need to wait for them to recharge.

Mystic - Adds one move and changes another: He gets the Force Push, and his teleslam, which is universal, now keeps the opponent open. It's possible he gets some added normals, but we can't know that without knowing the whole moveset, which they didn't show.

Spectral - He loses one move, gets a new move: He can no longer float and do the groundslam. Instead, when you do that move, he flies in the air, where you can maneuver him and do special attacks only available in the air.

See, the difference from one variation to another is just a couple of moves, usually. But these moves generally change your strategy.
 
I wonder who will be the UN-reveal? Maybe Frost? I
really don't hope its Fujin. Im very exited for some
Reptile gameplay now.

Yes, Boon tweeted about that. The most obvious guess would
be Frost imo. But i can see her joining the special forces...
