Frost is a legit post-UMK3 character. If she's in, I'm happy. At least she's NOT a MK9 or a family relative because we've been having a lot of those lately...
But we have that whole passing the torch thing and if anyone was going to take on a Sub Zero mantle, it would be Frost of all people.
I regret to inform you that I squandered my Thanks in a rare occurrence today...I'd rather have a complete stranger or a cousin / relative of of Bi-Han and Kuai-Liang taking up the mantle than Frost, of all people.
For a professional hobbyist with plenty of time on their hands, yes. This could totally be faked. But this was no work of some casual hobbyist with a pirated copy of photoshop and 3d studio max. If it's fake, someone went the distance for it. Paid a shit load of attention to the art direction of the game and such. If it's fake, and I'm willing to bet it most likely is, this is one damn fine fake.
I'll tell you right now you won't be able to pull it off. This has NRS written all over it.
Seems no one has mentioned that her belt is completely different from Sub-Zero. I can definitely see this being legitimate.
Now that I look at the screen again, her mask kinda looks like a dog snout and it looks like there's a small tongue there too. XD

Well to further the point you made, she doesn't look similarly dressed to the other NPC Lin Kuei ninjas in the story video. But if that's a fake, I'll have to tip my hat to the accuracy that the artist took to make it look like something from the game. I'm more convinced it's a fake because of the background. If that background was anything else, I wouldn't be able to tell a difference at all.
I think there's definitely ways to make her unique from Sub Zero.
1. Her freeze can slow people down instead of stopping them dead in their tracks.
2. Her freeze could prevent specials from the opponent as if she froze their hands. Depending on the input, she could also prevent other moves such as jumping, kicks, or punches.
3. She could be certainly much quicker but do less damage overall. Sub Zero tends to be a bruiser.
That would make her very unique compared to Subby.
Though I want unique moves for her too, there is only ONE thing I really don't care her and Sub-Zero having the same: iceball.
Her ground freeze was so frustrating.
They made a "female Sub-Zero" and try to avoid the iceball that way? C'mon...
Frost is a useless character.
We have Sub-Zero, that's it, we don't need more ice character, and don't bring me the "Kenshi and Ermac are both TK chars" bullshit, Ermac uses TK to manipulate people, Kenshi uses TK to manipulate his sword or punch you.
Different stuff.
That would be like making a female Scorpion and give her the spear move. Street Fighter has the shotoclones, everyone gets a fireball and an uppercut. I don't want Mortal Kombat to turn into that.
