Most Underrated Mortal Kombat Characters

The Top Ten
Stryker

I've heard so many horrible things about him. Well, I still love Kurtis Stryker. I love his outfit, fighting style, weapons, and fatalities.

Stryker is very underrated and deserves a chance. But people toss him aside as garbage because he's a cop.they say he has no powers in a world that has flame fists eye lasers and shadow powers just to name a few. But people like batman right. Think about that for a moment.

I agree. But it's a shame that he did not make it to MKX despite how badass he is. So, yeah.

Back in the days of MK3, he used to be a stupid looking cop, but now in MKA and MK9, he looks so badass that people kept forgetting.

Kabal Kabal is a character in the Mortal Kombat fighting game series, who made his debut in Mortal Kombat 3.

You should feel sorry for him, spoilers: he got burnt by that idiot Kitaro, and he looks like a freak now, but he still fights for the special forces; what a good person. In game he might be hard for some people but he is easy once you get used to it.

I don't know why people don't like him they say he is so bad because he has asthma I say he can kill you un 1 second even though you are more healthier than him

One of the most mysterious fighters in Mortal Kombat, but that only makes him more special. Kabal's story is very interesting.

Tanya

Tanya is MK4 magic woman, his have many spell a super body. She is doing to way trap Liu Kang. In trap is be terror Shinnok and Quan Chi. Tanya is his werry smile and Quan Chi and Shinnok is killing to Liu Kang, best of round fighter. Tanya is yellow beautiful suit, she is good female fighter.

She's hated by many people, but I disagree with it. Tanya is a great and mysterious fighter. Yes, she is evil and a traitor, but this is Mortal Kombat. The franchise is nothing without evil characters. I hope to see Tanya in future MK games.

Nitara

Based on how much the team seems to love providing us with setbacks instead of developing promising characters, she's not the only one. But I think she's a serious contender for the most underrated since she's not a cyborg, nor a ninja but a vampire. Wish she remains the only one for the franchise. Also wish she ends up granted the little she deserves at least. I hate looking at 2 similar characters with only colors to see the difference. She's a really well designed and cool character. Possibly one of the best of the franchise, all biased opinions aside.

Mavado

Back in the Deadly Alliance days this was the guy I played as

He's not as bad as MK fans say.

Fujin

Fujin is mystic old god. Great art Fujin to game MK 4, he is god of fuji, his costeem to green trousers and magic black waistcoat, grey long hair. He is magy to fuji, werry speed fighter. He is of advice to biggist god.

Idiot Raiden has been constantly taking his spotlight over the years

Sheeva Sheeva is a fictional character in the Mortal Kombat fighting game franchise by Midway Games and NetherRealm Studios.

Sheeva is 4 hand princess and fighter master woman, he is good kick classic warrior style.

Could've been a warlord instead of having jobber role

Another overlooked character in MK.

Tremor
Sareena Sareena is a character in the Mortal Kombat fighting game series. She made her debut in Mortal Kombat Mythologies: Sub-Zero, and first became playable in Mortal Kombat: Tournament Edition.

1 of the best characters introduced in MYTHOLOGIES. Should have appeared in MK the AND MK D.

Great, attractive, and very strong, but a very underrated MK fighter. In Armageddon, Sareena was one of my favorite characters.

Ashrah

Ashrah had very unique specials and moves in MK Deception. Her story is interesting too. Great character

Her Voodoo fatality on Mortal Kombat Deception was Priceless!

Very Underrated character and her backstory is really interesting I mean come on she's a demon from Netherealm

The Newcomers

? Smoke Smoke is a fictional character in the Mortal Kombat fighting game franchise by Midway Games and NetherRealm Studios. He debuted in Mortal Kombat II (1993) as a hidden opponent and became a secret playable character in Mortal Kombat 3 (1995), making him the franchise's first unlockable fighter. In keeping... read more
? Torr
The Contenders
Nightwolf Nightwolf is a character in the Mortal Kombat fighting game series. He made his debut in Mortal Kombat 3.

Deserves to be in more mk games than just 5 games (including mk11 dlc)

Reptile Reptile is a video game character from the Mortal Kombat fighting game franchise created for Midway Games by Ed Boon and John Tobias. He debuted in Mortal Kombat as a hidden opponent and appeared in subsequent titles as a playable character, also appearing in the merchandise and other media related... read more

Reptile of planet Zaterra, in Zaterra his many Reptiles, his here Reptile me great power and he is general. Reptile is MK games 2, 3, 4. Only best Reptile lose to fight of Shang Tsung. Shao Kahn is Reptile take do his rook. Reptile stand his only Shao Kahn general.

He gets way too much hate from ninja lovers and protagonist worshippers.

His character is developing under NRS Studios, and it's developing one step at a time. He'll have his own chapter in MK11, and by MK12, he'll have a major role in the story and probably his own chapter again.

Taven

I love his design and moves. Probably one of my favorite character in Mortal Kombat along with Kitana, Sub-Zero, and Jade.

Sadly he never got his chance to shine as the new main hero representing the Forces of Light He deserves better same as Daegon

He was introduced in MK Armageddon (2006), and he was such a great fighter. Taven's Konquest Mode in Armageddon is one of the greatest gaming experiences I've ever had.

Bo Rai Cho Bo' Rai Cho is a character in the Mortal Kombat fighting game series, who made his debut in Mortal Kombat: Deadly Alliance.
Darius
Li Mei Li Mei is a character in the Mortal Kombat fighting game series. She made her debut in Mortal Kombat: Deadly Alliance.

She has a huge potential and she does deserve more attention from the creators, I hope she'll be included in the next sequel to the MK series

Why did they even bother giving her a new makeover in mkx when they didn't include her in playable roster doesn't make any sense

She's an interesting character with an harsh story, she deserves more attention

Frost

I love her MK11 design even tho many hate her but the cyber ninja's got some cool stuff.

Kenshi Takahashi Kenshi is a fictional character from the Mortal Kombat fighting game franchise by Midway Games.

Yay! Kenshi returns in the new Mortal Kombat!

Kenshi is one of my favorite characters in MK. His Hara-Kiri was the best in Deception.

Kenshi is so underrated. He's a boss

Kai

Constantly taking a backseat because of the Liu Kang & Lao

Can't never get his chance to shine because they're constantly pushing Liu K & Kung L

Kai was very cool in MK 4 and Armageddon, but unfortunately, MK fans ignored him.

Ermac Ermac is a fictional character in the Mortal Kombat fighting game franchise by Midway Games. The character originated due to rumors over a diagnostics menu listing that displayed the text ERMACS, followed by claims of an alleged glitch in the first game.

Dude has Multiple souls swimming around his body, he gets some Shao Khan, Shang Tsung and couple other powerful dudes souls in there, and he is strongest dude evers!

Why is he even here? He doesn't belong to the most underrated characters!

Reiko

Reiko is doing many years general deadly Shao Kahn army. Reiko, red costum and strip eyes. Reiko in MK4 game and serial MK Conquest.

Reiko's style is a bit similar to Shao Kahn's, but he's great too.

I like Rekio, he just docent get enough attention. He is Shinnok's general and wears Shao Khan's helmet. Cool!

Sektor Sektor is a character in the Mortal Kombat fighting game series. He made his debut in Mortal Kombat 3.

If cyrax is scorpion than sektor is sub zero, I really like him because his compacter fatality

Sektor is red robot of game: Mortal Kombat ultimate and many games. He is me weapon raket and he is great fighter.

I don't adore him or anything, but I think he's underrated

Rain

All I need to say is: super badass kick that sends the opponent flying across the WORLD and lands behind Rain.

Badass and super fast combos. My favorite to play with

Danger purple ninja of quest Edenia. He is doing transmith lightening and he is great fighter. Rain is discoveh him PC Game MK Ultimane and serial MK Conquest and last Mortal Kombat affers.

Hsu Hao

I must've listened to hundreds of people rant against Hsu Hao over the years, and I have yet to hear a single convincing argument as to why he was so bad. Hsu Hao hate is little more than a dumb and forced internet fad that got by 2008. It's gotten downright retarded now. I've actually heard a few people say that they'd except a new character with Hsu Hao's powers, moves, and back story. Essentially saying Hsu Hao with a different name would be better than Hsu Hao. In what universe does that even begin to make any sense? It's high time everyone cut this bullcrap out, it's reached levels of stupid that's gone beyond comprehension.

Daegon
