Top 10 Strongest Mortal Kombat X Characters

The Top Ten
1 Jinsei Scorpion

Scorpion is a name in itself. It shows what powers he has. The undeniable fact about him is that he is such a badass character that others should think about fighting him. Whether it's Sub-Zero, Shinnok, Raiden, Ermac, etc. His powers are unbelievable and he has the the best Fatality as per 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 loss but he has made a great impact on the mortal mom at series. the "get over here" move is a iconic, popular, and effective move

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 just explain why Raiden deserves the spot as most powerful kombatant ever, now sure, Scorpion has a whole arsenal of weapons including his chained spears, dual swords, spiked gauntlets, and controls hellfire. But just because he is the most iconic and most liked character, he isn't nessesarily the most powerful, Raiden is a thunder god ffs, he can teleport, make lightning traps, shoot lightning. he controls lightning, I don't want to make it too long, but since he controls lightning, he has the ability to conduct as much lightning as he solely desires, he can produce enough to wipe out the whole kombat roster in one go without breaking a sweat. And if that wasnt enough, at the ending of MKX, he possesses Shinnok's amulet, that 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 then his brother, later in mk9 Sub-Zero(Kuai Liang) was supposed to kill Scorpion but he was stopped by the cyber Lin Kuei and mean while Scorpion took orders from Shao Kahn, Sub-Zero demanded Justice for his brother.

I love Sub Zero, 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 and although I'm a skilled player (good but not the best don't judge) it takes me at least two or three times to beat him so over all he is one of the best.

On the other hand my favourite character to play with is scorpion he is mainly the best player in skills only if you know how to use them but I think scorpion is the No1.

I'm with the noob. I really sucked at MKX and I beat Corrupted Shinnok on my first try. by the way I couldn't be first phase Shinnok on my first try.

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 don't understand how Cassie cage is the one to beat shinnok. And on top of that can beat Shujinko?!?! A man who has studied almost every warriors fighting styles. The developers really overwrote her. I don't hate Cassie Cage at all, great characters. But should she be the one to beat shinnok and Shujinko? She's like if Becky Lynch was getting constant TV time

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

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 was not 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, 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 in 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.

He is the main and chief defender of earthrealm and the first combatent to win 2 successive mortal Kombat... Scorpion only does takes his own revenge and nothing else... And Cassie only defeating a main last danger, Shinnok in a single game doesn't make her up to top 10 and putting her makes the list worthless... Liu kang deserves to go ahead in 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.

Has great combo variations and can surprise the opponent with many things. He can be played as offensive and defensive 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 best as he can payback even on basic attacks. Whenever he comes with greater attack and health then other two kombatants in fight (in enemy team) u feel confused whether to fight or not... so I vote for him.

Takeda is so amazing with amazing 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 shes my favorite charcter 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, no reason he should be 12. X-ray is one of the most powerful and his attacks are shockingly strong. I want tremor up to at least third.

Turns out that he's apparently Johnny Cage's fanboy as he literally admits to Cage that he enjoyed his movies.

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.
I wished she was on this list...
Like seriously Scorpion was on this list twice and Mileena wasn't even on here.

Anyways, 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 within her hands.

Mileena, half Edenian, half Tarkatan, has proven that she is a deadly combination of beauty and beast. She has been shown to be able to fight with brute strength rivaling that of a Shokan, if not surpassing it, and has shown an incredible amount of 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 the opponent with her deadly Tarkatan teeth. Because of her being Kitana's clone, she almost is 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 shoulda been vice versa.

He is the best summoner and necromancer in entire mk, how come he is this low? 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.
