I'll have to say no to Kobra. I liked his kick-boxing fighting style in the 3D game-cube, X-Box, PS2 era. There are other fighters chomping at the bit to be in this game.
No to Kobra. I was never a fan of him, and because he is simply a kick-boxer, I feel NRS would be really limited in creating a unique moveset for him. I would much rather see a new strange, unique character(like Kotal Kahn, D'Vorah, etc) that is less human and more of a dangerous creature/being.
I don't think anyone actually likes him. It's just a matter of wanting him to be something other than a Ken clone. (Though honestly I still prefer him to Ken. I just can't take that character seriously. He looks like a total dumb ass)
Meh, I guess I'll toss out a YES here. If they give him short hair or just something to distinguish himself from Ken it would do wonders for him. Who knows, maybe he could be this game's Stryker
I'll also vote NO for Kobra, even though a reinvention could turn him into a better character, he would still take up valuable space from other, more deserving characters from Deception.
