[MENTION=18695]EdenianGoddess[/MENTION] you were not refering to me, but i
said 7-3 or something for Kung Lao. I Know Kitana
is very old. But that does not mean she has to be
very strong. If so, being 10.000 years old could make
her one of the strongest, or maybe even the strongest
Kombatant. I guess she isn't training her skills all day,
like Shaolins do. Hell, Kung defeated Shang, Quan, and
Kintaro. Can't see Kitana doing that.

Besides this, Shaolin Monk >>> Assassin
in a fair and square duel. My opinion.

I get your point, but this thread was made
for fun. I was wondering too why many
people gave Kitana the edge against Kung
Lao... but thats their opionion. Its true,
10-0 is a bit hard though.

I don't mind Raiden winning, but being so unrealistic, takes the fun away. Then anyone could just give 10 to the characters they like. Ermac is my 2 favourite and I voted against him in the fight with Quan-Chi.

Raiden vs Shinnok is not Raiden vs Mokap
10-0 is unrealistic cause Shinnok is a pretty damn powerfull character (don't let me get started why). He was a BOSS in 2 MK games.
Give the win to Raiden, but don't fvck it up that way, just because u don't like Shinnok.(Not u, generally speaking)

 

[Temptress]

But I used evidence and facts to support my opinion, all you did was say that 'Kung Lao is a monk who's defeated a few powerful people!' and then proceed to ignore the fact that Kitana is a 10,000 year old Edenian princess who is an expert assassin with thousands of years of training in combat & that she, too, has defeated many powerful people (a lot more than Kung Lao) in her lifetime. I don't understand the logic in that, but whatever.

Are you refering to me? If so, i didn't ignore her age. I said something about it.
And its fact that Kung Lao fought more powerful opponents than Kitana ever did.
If anything else, we don't know about that.
You are just saying stuff like this:

But I used evidence and facts to support my opinion

Talking about her being 10.00 years old? Hmm, thats right, i know.
I get it. You really like Kitana. Im really not a big fan of Kung, my
opinion is just common sense for me. But.. evidence and facts?

Kitana is a 10,000 year old Edenian princess who is an expert assassin with thousands of years of training in combat & that she, too, has defeated many powerful people (a lot more than Kung Lao) in her lifetime.

Those are the facts you are talking about? Hmm. Ok. Like i said before, i respect your opinion.
I don't want to start flaming about that now...

 

[Temptress]

Yes, those are facts.

Mortal Kombat II: "Her beauty hides her true role as personal assassin for Shao Kahn. Seen talking to an earth-realm warrior, her motives have come under suspicion by her twin sister Mileena. But only Kitana knows her own true intentions."

The fact you said that Kung Lao defeating Kitana was 'common sense' is hilarious. I'm still waiting for you to provide some facts or evidence as to how Kung Lao could defeat Kitana, but I know you won't because you don't have any.

You can continue having your biased opinion, I'll continue being logical.

 

[Daigoro]

Its very easy to have a quarell with you.

Yes, those are facts.

Mortal Kombat II: "Her beauty hides her true role as personal assassin for Shao Kahn. Seen talking to an earth-realm warrior, her motives have come under suspicion by her twin sister Mileena. But only Kitana knows her own true intentions."

What does this say about Kitanas strenght? Nothing. I don't know
what you want to tell me with that quote

The fact you said that Kung Lao defeating Kitana was 'common sense' is hilarious.

I stated that this is my opinion.

You can continue having your biased opinion, I'll continue being logical.

I can't see much logic in the things you say. It seems you don't even read what im
trying to say. I guess its no sense to take this any further. Lets stop spaming this
thread. Feel free to have the last word. And try to not get yourself provoked that easily.
Just advice.

 

[Sonya Bland]

Everyone forgets that Mileena is a clone to kitana, and clones absorb all skills from their original body, so Mileena is just as good as Kitana.

 

[vetalfox]

Raiden 8 - Shinnok 2, i believe Raiden is just stronger than Shinnok, since he was able to beat him in the past and send into Netherealm and it looks like he will beat him again, but Shinnok, being an Elder God himself must win at least couple of times.

Kung Lao 5 vs Kenshi 5 - i see them as equals

Jax 4 vs Reiko 6 - Jax was cool in MKT, but then he lost it, Reiko on the other hand became cool in MKA and after it, since i think they are equals on the battlefield, but can't stand new Jax, i will give an edge to Reiko

Almost as stupid as the person who said Kung Lao vs. Kitana was 10-0 in Kung Lao's favour. Yes, because a c*cky 20-something year old monk can defeat a 10,000 year old Edenian princess who has been trained all her life in the art of combat & also happens to be an expert assassin. Not to mention she's probably killed thousands, if not millions of people in her lifetime. His reasoning for Kung Lao winning is a poorly constructed rant about how Kitana is 'stupid' because she couldn't 'discover the truth' about her father and her origins. I don't recall Kitana being telepathic, so there is no way she could have known about what happened since it happened when she was an infant.

I get it, people are entitled to their own opinions. But if you're going to have an opinion, try not to have such a biased one and actually use some form of logic or factual information to back your opinion up, other than your personal opinion, which is clearly based off of which character you like more.

That's all you can? I don't even count you as fat troll anymore, just as blind fanboy.

And yes, kitana wasn't able to figure out what happened for 10.000 years, so she is extremely stupid.

Your rant about the age matters on a battlefield is stupid, since Liu Kang (20+) was able to beat Shao Kahn (10.000+)

 

[Temptress]

That's not how it works, sweetie. You can't magically absorb the powers, skill or intelligence of someone simply because you have their DNA. Kitana's skills were learnt, she was not born with them. Also, Kitana has beaten Mileena on more than one occasion, so no, they're not equal.

As for the other guy commenting, I would argue with you but you're far too unintelligent to try and reason with. Instead of replying to my comment like a civilized human being, you resorted to nothing but personal insults and false statements based on nothing but your personal opinion.

Please try to understand, imagine how hard it is to go on the internet and see someone have a different opinion on a fictional character fight. Can't blame EdenianGoddess for lashing out after undergoing such a traumatic experience.
It's easy to judge him on being rude and annoying, but try to put yourself in his place: someone is wrong on the internet! Kitana is not being given proper praise! This is serious business.

You are right. I just began to realize the extent of what i did.
Im not the one being drawn into something like this that easily.

[MENTION=12345]Tarkatan Trash[/MENTION] [MENTION=5638]Sleegmar[/MENTION] Guys for the love of God, If you believe that Raiden would win,that is fair. But 10 - 0? Are you serius people? For the love of God, Johny cage gets to win Goro 2 times and a f***ng Elder God can't beat a God at least once? Unfair IMO

Uh yes I do think the God of Thunder, who defeated Shao Kahn, could dominate a former Elder God, who looks like he's suffering from both AIDS and Ebola at the wame time and is by far the worst boss in MK history. I've never seen Shinnok do anything to make me think I couldn't beat him 10-0. Of course that's just my honest opinion.

Ok, never seen? really?
Prisoned in NR and he rules the whole realm now, just cause he feels like it.
shapeshifter, basically can take the form of Raiden himself and kick his ass
Posesses millions of years of knowledge
In MKA his clone fights instead of him, and does pretty well

Only Shang Tsung, Delia, Shao Kahn and Quan Chi can match Shinnok's skills as a sorcerer. source: http://mortalkombat.wikia.com/wiki/Shinnok

BTW raiden had all the help he needed to win Shao Khan and he almost lost. Many died cause of his stupidity. He also won shao Khan cause the Elder Gods helped him to weaken shao Khan otherwise he would lose. I see how well you structure your opinions now. Me like raiden, Raiden wears hat. good for u

BTW there are people dying from AIDS and Ebola, so show some respect to them(not me)

 

[GOTCHA!]

6-4, Raiden beats Shinnok. Shinnok is a fighter who has great utility when fighting from a distance with the use of his Judgment Fist spell, a ranged atk, and Summoned Fiend were one of his minions is called to grab an opponent from underneath the ground forcing them to watch the ground and not Shinnok movements which allows Shinnok to get close without detection using his teleport and go for the kill with his staff attacks. Raiden Could careless about all of this because he has the best teleport in the MK universe, if wants to get close, he will. What almost makes this even is Shinnok most powerful technique, Impersonation.

7-3, Kung Lao beats Kenshi. Kenshi has powerfull telekinesis attacks which can cover alot of ground and hurt especially his Spirit Charge technique which Kenshi uses to control the entire fight, its fast and its range is amazing. If a fighter lacks mobility options he has to deal with Spirit Charge before he can get a chance to deal with Kenshi. For Kung lao sake he has those options and in a up close slug fest Kenshi just can't go punch for punch with Kung Lao speed.

6-4, Jax beats Reiko. both fighters fit that "jack of all trades" title. From a distance Reiko has Assassin Stars which he throws at lighting fast speeds but kinda lack in range, up-close he is just as fast, but more deadly using his Flip kick technique which has amazing range causing big damage. Jax is pretty similar, from far range he uses Ground Pound fakes, and UZI/Energy Wave combo making him a very powerful range fighter.Mid to up-close, Jax is more defensive depending on his air/ground gotcha grab, Dash Fist, and kickboxing as counter attacks to reverse offense and corner his opponents into closed space at which time he overwhelms you with his metal arm atks like his Overhead Smash and at this point your good as dead. What gives Jax the advantage is Reiko shurikens don't measure up to Jax GP fakes/EW combo, Reiko has to be proactive and approach Jax and the second that happens he is playing Jax's game which puts him at a disadvantage.

9 Raiden vs 1 Shinnok - Shinnok is the least threatening bosses from MK ever, while Raiden is the strongest Earthrealm protector.

5 Kung Lao vs 5 Kenshi - I think both are skilled, but can't see who would win. So, it's a tie.

7 Reiko vs 3 Jax - Reiko have never really showed his fight skills, neither Jax. I'm still waiting to see more of Reiko on the comics, but Jax only got his ass kicked during the new timeline (MK9), so, i'll give this one to Reiko.

As far as gameplay is concerned, he'a the least threatening (primarily due to the fact that he was a playable character, and playable bosses are generally on par with the rest of the roster for competitive balance reasons), but storyline is a different matter. He is a Fallen Elder God, as well as the MK's storyline equivalent to the Devil from the monotheistic Abrahamic religions (a high ranking angel/deity who wanted absolute power, only for his plot to be exposed and to be banished to the Netherrealm, MK's equivalent to Hell, for his transgressions). Nevertheless, I voted 10-0 in favor of Raiden because Raiden is literally undefeated against Shinnok.

I agree about the inspiration behind Shinnok. It's kind of obvius actually. lol.
How many times did they had to fight? I'm preety sure it was less than 10
But if you take sports for example even the worst team has chances against the best one.
By law of possibilities, it's not correct

 

[Sonya Bland]

10 - 0 win for Reiko, I mean, expert stategist against boring lacky...
7 - 3 win for Kenshi
5 - 5 for Raiden and Shinnok.

 

[p.W]

3-7 Raiden vs Shinnok

Shinnok is powerful enough to fight Raiden (Armageddon intro) with a clone, right? The guy's legit. Yeah, apparently Raiden beat him that one time thousands of years ago, but he was turbocharged with Elder God juice. That doesn't count. If Shinnok's weaker than Raiden, why doesn't Raiden just go kick his ass? The Elder Gods clearly don't have a problem with people crossing realms to beat people up, as that seems to happen on a daily basis in the games and the comics.

3-7 Kung Lao vs Kenshi

I'm going to give Kenshi the edge because while Kung Lao might be the superior warrior, he has lived a very cloistered life as a monk, while Kenshi is basically the archetypal wandering swordsman. Just look - he was in Outworld on his own during MK2, and now he's going undercover to infiltrate the Red Dragon for the Special Forces. This guy has seen some shit. Kung Lao on the other hand doesn't have a lot of experience in a lot of different situations. So in an MK tournament style setting, he might have Kenshi beat, but if they fight anywhere else, for any other reason, with Kenshi's enhanced senses... the swordsman definitely takes it.

8-2 Jax vs Reiko

Jax has metal arms, he's been in plenty of combat ops, and he's obviously capable of adapting, as we saw when all shit hit all the fans in MK9. The only thing we know about Reiko is that he's a smart guy. Nothing in there about him being tough. And if Mileena kills him in the comic for his treachery... well... Mileena did lose to Sonya in a previous poll...

10-0 Raiden. Shinnok has NEVER beaten Raiden.

How many times have they fought in canon? I can only find one battle, and in that one Raiden had the assistance of the Elder Gods, so that's meaningless. Even if it was a fair fight, though, statistically speaking one battle is such an insignificant sample size. I could see giving Raiden the edge based on that, but 10-0? Yikers.

 

[vetalfox]

Best Shinnok days where in MKMyth, where he was the final boss, had enough specials and the demon form, this demon form was stronger than Raiden was in any games, but people prefer to forget this game's existance for some reason. In other games Shinnok was (MK4, MKA) Raiden was better fighter...2 for Raiden vs 1 (or 0) for Shinnok - Raiden wins here. + Raiden was able to "imprison" Shinnok in the Netherealm, beat him in MK4 and guided Sub-Zero to beat him as well (if you still count MKMyth), to me it's clear who is the winner here should be.

You know, you could go this road if you already didn't insult people on this board many times, so right now this sounds like a bunch of BS and sorry excuse.

 

[Sonya Bland]

Reiko is around for thousands of years probably, Jax only has his metal arms.

Are you blind? There is this picture of Reiko protecting Kotal Kahn in a cave, fighting a huge monster.

Reiko has the looks, the strategy, the brains, the interesting background, the mystery, the flatter, the muscles and the age at his side.

Jax is just your favorite, that's why you think he wins.
