Top 10 Strongest Mortal Kombat X Characters

The Top Ten
1 Jinsei Scorpion

Scorpion is a name in itself. It represents the power he possesses. The undeniable fact about him is that he is such a badass character that others should think twice before fighting him, whether it's Sub-Zero, Shinnok, Raiden, Ermac, etc. His powers are unbelievable, and he has the best Fatality, in my opinion. I just love this character.

Best character in Mortal Kombat. He isn't defeated by anyone, and with him and Sub-Zero being friends in the Mortal Kombat previous story, they are impossible to kill!

He has won and lost, but he has made a great impact on the Mortal Kombat series. The "Get over here!" move is an iconic, popular, and effective technique.

2 Raiden Raiden is a video game character in the Mortal Kombat fighting game series by Midway Games. Making his official debut as one of the original seven playable characters in 1992's Mortal Kombat, he is one of the central characters of the franchise.

Let me explain why Raiden deserves the spot as the most powerful kombatant ever. Sure, Scorpion has a whole arsenal of weapons, including his chained spears, dual swords, and spiked gauntlets, and he controls hellfire. But just because he is the most iconic and most liked character doesn't necessarily mean he is the most powerful.

Raiden is a thunder god. He can teleport, create lightning traps, and shoot lightning. He controls lightning! I don't want to make this too long, but since he controls lightning, he can conduct as much of it as he desires. He can produce enough to wipe out the entire kombat roster in one go without breaking a sweat. And if that wasn't enough, at the ending of MKX, he possesses Shinnok's amulet, which makes him beyond powerful.

3 Sub Zero Sub-Zero is a video game character from the Mortal Kombat series and one of the original characters in the first Mortal Kombat game in 1992. A mainstay of the series, Sub-Zero is the only character who has appeared in every main Mortal Kombat fighting game.

Yes, Sub-Zero (Bi-Han) was murdered by Scorpion, but Bi-Han was a weaker and less intelligent character than his brother. Later, in MK9, Sub-Zero (Kuai Liang) was supposed to kill Scorpion, but he was stopped by the cyber Lin Kuei. Meanwhile, Scorpion took orders from Shao Kahn, and Sub-Zero demanded justice for his brother.

I love Sub Zero. The Grandmaster card is much better than the Scorpion Hellfire card!

4 Shinnok Shinnok is a character in the Mortal Kombat fighting game series. He made his debut in Mortal Kombat Mythologies: Sub-Zero as the final boss, and first became playable in Mortal Kombat 4.

Corrupted Shinnok is the hardest boss, in my opinion. Although I'm a skilled player (good but not the best, don't judge), it takes me at least two or three tries to beat him, so overall, he is one of the best.

On the other hand, my favorite character to play with is Scorpion. He is mainly the best player in terms of skill, but only if you know how to use him. I think Scorpion is the No. 1.

Shinnok is the strongest character in Mortal Kombat, from Mortal Kombat 1 to X. He possesses the powers of all Mortal Kombat characters.

5 Cassie Cage Sergeant Cassie Cage is a fictional character from the Mortal Kombat fighting game series. She made her debut in Mortal Kombat X as the headstrong daughter of Johnny Cage and Sonya Blade.

I broke Corrupted Shinnok's nuts about 10 times before I won the battle. Still, I really like her.

It runs in the Cage family to beat Shinnok. She beat him at the peak of his power. She and Johnny are easy top 3.

Strong as Shinnok, fast as Kabal, durable like Raiden, and flexible like her parents!

6 Johnny Cage Johnny Cage is a fictional video game character from the Mortal Kombat fighting game franchise by Midway Games. He was introduced as one of the series' original seven player characters in the first Mortal Kombat game in 1992, and has become a staple of the series.

The dude beat Shinnok, and he wasn't even at his strongest. Raiden and Fujin both went up against Shinnok and lost. Easy top 3.

He beat Shinnok and Scorpion and is overpowered. He should be number 1.

Johnny Cage has many awesome moves and powers.

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

Honestly, he should be higher on this list.

8 Liu Kang Liu Kang is a fictional character and the main protagonist of the Mortal Kombat fighting game series from Midway Games, introduced as one of the original seven player characters in the 1992 first game as a Shaolin monk who enters the Mortal Kombat tournament to save Earthrealm.

Liu Kang is the main and chief defender of Earthrealm and the first combatant to win two successive Mortal Kombat tournaments. Scorpion only seeks revenge and nothing else. Cassie defeating Shinnok in a single game doesn't make her worthy of the top 10, and including her makes the list worthless. Liu Kang deserves a higher spot on the list.

9 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.

He has great combo variations and can surprise the opponent with many things. He can be played both offensively and defensively, which is a plus, in my opinion.

10 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
The Contenders
11 Takeda

I think Takeda is the best because he can counter even basic attacks. Whenever he comes with greater attack and health than the other two kombatants in the fight (on the enemy team), you feel confused about whether to fight or not, so I vote for him.

Takeda is so amazing with incredible combos and comes with a cool fatality.

12 Kitana Kitana is a fictional character from the Mortal Kombat media franchise, where she was introduced as one of the new player characters in the fighting game Mortal Kombat II in 1993. Since then, Kitana appeared in a majority of Mortal Kombat series' video games and its other media, including the films... read more

She should definitely be on here. I can beat every player with her.

Powerful - I could win quite a few matches with her.

Honestly, she's my favorite character, and I can't beat a game without her!

13 Jason Voorhees Jason Voorhees is a character from the Friday the 13th series. He first appeared in Friday the 13th as the young son of camp cook-turned-murderer, Mrs. Voorhees.
14 Kotal Kahn Ko'atal, most commonly referred to as Kotal Kahn or just simply Kotal, is a character in the Mortal Kombat fighting game series. A powerful, high ranking Osh-Tekk, he is the former Emperor of Outworld, serving as the realm's Emperor after the death of Shao Kahn... read more

Sun God and War God work really well for me - still a ways to go with Blood God, but he's really powerful.

His moves are so hard-hitting and powerful. He's like a revamped Shao Kahn.

God. He is a god every single time.

15 Tremor

Definitely the strongest character. There's no reason he should be 12th. His X-ray is one of the most powerful, and his attacks are shockingly strong. I want Tremor moved up to at least third.

16 Tri-Borg

He has really cool attacks and, in my opinion, looks the coolest.

He has an OP move: Chest Saw. I use that every time and win. They just get stuck there.

17 Sonya Blade Sonya Blade is a video game character from the Mortal Kombat series. Debuting in the original Mortal Kombat game from 1992, she was a late addition to the game as developers decided deep into the development cycle that the game needed a female character.
18 Mileena Mileena is a character from the Mortal Kombat franchise who debuted in the sequel Mortal Kombat II as a clone of Kitana by Shang Tsung using Tarkatan DNA resulting in her mouth having razor sharp teeth that of a Tarkatan like Baraka, she hated her sister Kitana and vowed to destroy her and take over... read more

Mileena is a clone of Kitana, created by Shang Tsung's sorcery in his flesh pits for Shao Kahn, using Tarkatan physiology. Vicious and evil, she despises Kitana and feels that it is her own right to rule Edenia as Princess in her place. Her fondest wish is to kill her "sister" and claim her existence for her own. Somewhat of an opportunist, she will make use of any chance to seize power that comes into her hands.

Mileena, half Edenian, half Tarkatan, has proven that she is a deadly combination of beauty and beast. She has been shown to fight with brute strength rivaling that of a Shokan, if not surpassing it, and has demonstrated incredible agility and acrobatic prowess. In addition, she possesses incredible speed, making her one of the deadliest kombatants in the whole series. Mileena wields a pair of sai and is able to teleport, roll, and bite opponents with her deadly Tarkatan teeth. Because she is Kitana's clone, she is almost equal in strength to her.

19 Quan Chi Quan Chi is a fictional character in the Mortal Kombat fighting game franchise. First appearing as an original guest character in the 1996 animated series Mortal Kombat: Defenders of the Realm, he made his series canon debut as the non-playable main antagonist of Midway's 1997 side-scrolling action-adventure... read more

Scorpion beheading him was the wrong idea. It should have been vice versa.

He is the best summoner and necromancer in the entire MK series. How come he is this low? He should be at least top 5.

20 Leatherface
21 Shao Kahn Shao Kahn is a boss, announcer, and recurring playable character from the Mortal Kombat fighting game series. Introduced in Mortal Kombat II in 1993, he is the primary antagonist of the video game series and extended franchise.

The final boss in many games and a feared figure in the MK universe. Should be top 5.

22 D'Vorah D'Vorah is a character in the Mortal Kombat fighting game series, who made her debut in Mortal Kombat X.
23 Jax Briggs Jackson "Jax" Briggs is a fictional character from the Mortal Kombat fighting game franchise by Midway Games.
24 Onaga Onaga, the Dragon King, is a character in the Mortal Kombat fighting game series. He made his debut in Mortal Kombat: Deception, in which he also served as the main antagonist and final boss.

The Dragon King and another feared figure that should be at least top 10.

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