The last 4 non-boss fighters from the target era (meaning not MK4 debuting Quan Chi) that have yet to be konfirmed. Not including Fake Skarlett. Yes, I know Rain was in Ed's DLC lineup....but I just dont believe that he has been demoted to DLC. Why not?

1. He has a cult following - arguably more so than the konfirmed Kurtis. Stryker and no Rain? I dont know man...

2. You have all the other Skittle Ninjas there - Why leave one out...and the best flavor at that.

3. "He wasn't in UMK3." He was in the home console version; Netherrealm has not specified which platform they are pulling the kast from.

4. With rumors of Sheeva swirling through the community, I tend to think they are pulling out all the stops to make this a beefy roster. Again, Sheeva and Stryker...and no Rain? I dont know man...

5. Netherrealm is promising surprises. They keep saying the final roster wont be unveiled until April 19th. I think Rain will be one of those "Top Secret April 19th Reveals"

6. Eddy is a Jokester.

Anyway...I dont even care about Rain (lol), But I do respect him and his followers so he is in the poll. You'll survive.

So, who do you think is next up? We were surprisingly served Noob Saibot today so at this point - its anyone's game.

Im a Sheeva Stan :)hail:) so you know she gets my vote. I Love the Fightresses and she is the final, relevant misses pending a revelation.

Predict in 3...2....1...
 
Kabal. Period.

Edit: Hmm. Since he is yet to be mentioned by the MK crew, hopefully we're getting a video reveal of him, similar to Noob's.

Yeah, that would be awesome.

Why is Baraka not an option :(
Kabal gets my vote, even if Baraka was an option he would still get it :)
 
I suspect it will be Kabal who gets the next reveal. Reason being that I think the other 3 are probably amongst the most demanded and uncertain characters yet to be confirmed and I think NRS knows this and will play coy. I hope with all my might that Ed was just coaxing a reaction from fans by mentioning Rain in the DLC poll and that Rain will actually appear in the main roster (and a story mode cut-scene or two - a man can dream). If not I'll be a sad panda. So happy with the Noob Saibot reveal today though. Mind is racing with the story mode possibilities!
 
sheeva at the next game convention in march is the next reveal imo due to rumours and hints by ed. otherwise ONFIRM KABAL DAMNIT Baraka and Reptile both made it and i just need kabal in for my top 3 favourotes to be in

I figured the majority of the community believes he is in based on the xray video. His skull was sitting pretty next to the skulls of Mileena and Reptile - I think NR wanted us to connect the dots.

Exactly. I agree 100%. I wouldnt be surprised if we get one or two new confirmations at PAX next month and the rest be saved for April 19th.
 
Next will be Baraka. Yes we saw him in the X-ray video but he hasn't been officially announced yet. I want to see his full MK 2011 render. I think Smoke, Kabal Quan Chi and Sheeva are in but let's face it we will have to wait for Rain. Don't know why people don't believe the DLC question or why if they don't it is just the Rain part. Ed didn't single him out, Rain was part of a list. It was a legitimate question. All the leaks point to the others. Rain will be the first DLC and Baraka will be next just to give us something. They said they are not going to give away the entire roster til the game comes out so they can show him and count it as a reveal and still keep some secret til April 19.
 
I vote Kabal. I always loved that gasmask.


I hope Smoke and Noob Saibot have their own tag team moves and bring back SmokeyCut.

Would love that combination too. Also I voted Smoke, He's the main one im looking after, although I'd pick Kabal as my second.
 
...Sheeva thats my vote, i tired of waiting and waiting and waiting enough already...only God knows how many sleeples nights and countless days i spent waiting for her reveal, does anyone of you know really? i DEMAND! Sheeva should be next! period!...
 
I hope it is Kabal. Defiantly my favorite in the series. I somehow knew he would be last to get shown. His look will defiantly be among the best. I am up in the air if I want his classic Mk3 look are something completely new and unique like the Mk team did with Noob. Somehow I think they are going to nail it though.
