    The top 5 worst/stupidest Mortal Kombat Characters ever

    These are the ones I think are the worst. Sure there is a bunch of other stupid ones like: Taven   Daegon,  Dairou,  Darrius,  Fujin,  Hsu Hao, etc etc.
    There are some of the newer guys I actually like such as,  Frost,  Hotaru,  Kenshi and  Nitara. 
    I'd like to see them come up with more new charaters but seeing the 20 or so new people and hating all of them expect 5 is pretty bad.

    1. Drahmin

    Him and the other two Meat and Moloch. I think it was just an excuse to put a couple monsters into the game.

    2. Jarek

    Random beefcake number 5, he is just a big dude.

    3. Ashrah

    The demon that wants to be good.

    4. Kobra

    A Ken without a dragonpunch is no ken at all

    5. Li Mei

    Who? all I know about her is, in her ending in Deception she became the dragon king's wife.

    I actually didn't mind it so much in MK3.  His Armageddon Fatality was glorious.

    I don't even remember most of those characters. I'll narrow it down to 1-3 then.
     
    In which case, my least favorite is Kabal, he looked like a sand people reject

    Reptile and Mileena for favorite characters.  They're so going to be my tag-team for the next one.
    Least favorite would be pretty much everyone they tried to replace Kano with over the games, I. E. that Mavado dude and all the other Red/Black Dragon dudes they brought out.

    Stryker - best goddamn character ever, and shame on all of you for not mentioning him once up until this point. 
     
    Worst - Maybe Meat?  I don't much care for any character added after MK2.

    I wonder what would happen if Kung Lao and Oddjob got in a fight.
     
    Anyway, my worst pick would be  Bo'Rai Cho - he just seemed like a cartoon stereotype, especially his move set.

    @Crono: Mass galactic obliteration, Smoke style. 
     
    anyways, Stryker and Cryrax. 3 and UMK3 be kickin'. 
     
    I've always hated Quan Chi and his stupid antics. If you're gonna clone Shang Tsung, don't let me make Four Cheese Pizzas jokes about the character.

    I never really liked Mortal Kombat, but if I had to have a favorite character, it'd probably be Rain (purple ninja)

     I actually like Ashrah quite a bit. 
     
    But Scorpion is king of kombat. 
    Other favourites are Ermac, Kabal and Kenshi.
    Suckiest, aside from the obvious jokes, are Hsu Hao, Shinnok and Jarek.

    The first time I saw Mortal Kombat in an arcade and heard Scorpion's demonic echo-y voice shout "Get over here!" I was immediately hooked. It didn't hurt that when I got to the character selection screen, he looked like this:  

     No one has ever looked cooler than this. 
     No one has ever looked cooler than this. 
    I also enjoyed and have continued to enjoy playing as Kano because his cannonball special was fun to bust out, although almost impossible on a D-pad.  
    Least favorites would be everyone else, I guess. All characters that were added from MK3 and up are all rather uninteresting to me, but of the original two games; Sonya and Kung Lao I would literally never play as.

    I loved Good Old MK3 Cyrax.  The net was a great move, and his predator esque  fatality was awesome.  They screwed him over in later renditions however when they removed the net ability.   
     
      

     
      I also really liked Night Wolf.  He had a nice move set and had a really awesome fatality that was rewarding when you pulled it off. Again the more modern versions of him suffered from some move losses, but unlike Cyrax, he maintained most of his standard attacks and continued to be a enjoyable character to play.
      
       
    WORST Character? 
     
    BO Rai CHO, character was a pain in the ass to play as... and was clearly made for 13 year old boys. 
     
      
       
    I love the MK series, but yeah... there were defiantly some characters like the one above that you could not help but hate.

    Best: The Ninjas. 
     
     
    Worst: anyone added after UMK3 except for Kenshi, Nitara, Kobra, and Kira. Oh and Jade, Ermac, and Rain are completely lame.
