I’d like the option to record my own announcer voice.

I never said there was never an Arabic character in a fighting game, I’m aware Zafina is arabic
And that’s not a hijab/veil that Mileena is wearing, that’s some sort of genie face mask.
It’s the whole reverse psychology thing. You post something negative till the people that don’t come out say “WTF…dat shit ain’t true” etc. etc. Typical trolling.
I’m not gonna lie, I like acrobatic type characters and such (played X-23 for most of Vanilla Marvel) so I was instantly attached when I saw her. Not gonna make me drop Glacius for her though because Glacius is pretty much Killer Instinct’s take on Viper/Dormammu and that looks too damn fun. Controlling niggas and setting up unblockables then do shoulder charges like 3S Urien. Oh man.
I think the problem is that the video makes her “super unique playstyle” appear rather overstated when you see her shooting out a web and looking like something that loosely resembles a character you’ve seen before. Someone in the DH forums rumored that it might have been a rejected KI character that was apparently an oversized crab or something. Right before the trailer I was like “yo…this might be a big ass crab, we got dinosaurs with battletoads torsos…why not?” and then she came out instead.
I think people were looking to see her use a weapon or attacks that no one has ever seen and then as soon as they saw knives and webbing, they went down the list of characters that had knives and webbing. Whereas the real unique part of her is how her playstyle basically can’t normally work in the Killer Instinct engine (and the fact that nobody does what she does in KI in general).
Oh and then the whole not being iconic man on fire or generic black guy thing.

Yeah I like how original she is towards the cast and the whole ariel thing she has going on. It’s definitely a playstyle this game needs
Now that you mention Glacius I’d also like to talk about him too. I also like alot of his moves. The whole ice controlling alien seems quite cool. And I also love seeing him in different colors, especially the black and red ones
That’s the part I’m most curious about.
We get 5 seconds of gameplay and all of a sudden shes the first character in KI to have airborne comboes. For all we know those could be followups after launching them into the air, or anti-air follow ups.
I’d be more inclined to think those webs she makes play a bigger part than the air stuff.
Also…inb4 “Fulgore” already has the hand claws.
lol KI stealing references from itself.

You’re a tough one to crack.
Look I don’t wanna bitch but why another female ninja…why not a female android or female vampire or something.
I am mildly amused that a game known for ripping off other games and pop culture…
Is being derided for ripping off other games and pop-culture.
A female vampire would have been really awesome.

The new lady is a ninja
Saberwulf is a cat
TJ Combo has a tan
Jago is a samurai
Cmon everyone, let’s all continue to make false ignorant statements!!! <sarcasm>
Saberwolf is a bandicoot.
The developer said so.
You mad because that bitch look like a ninja?

Damn, I thought they would reveal Cinder.

No, I’m mad because ya keep calling that “WOMAN” a ninja when she is (most likely) an assassin that uses webs.
Also, if she looks like a ninja then so does every muslim woman in the world.
But she looks like a ninja and fights like one…
I didn’t get a ninja vibe from her at all…
I got a very heavy MK Vibe.
We also have no idea what she plays like, just what the 5 second trailer suggests.

… She only fought for 5 seconds and I just saw a couple hits and her shooting a webs. Are you kiding me?
