I have a few cool ideas but i'm going to list one for today for and, new mk feature.
I call it the absorb and and destroy system. Just how you can block your opponenets attacks you can also absorb and use them. Let's say your fighting Sub-zero and he throws and ice ball at you, holding block and tapping down just at the right time you can absorb it and save for the remainder for however many rounds it is and use it. Or throw it back at him right then and there, but the longer you hold it the stronger it becomes. That's also with moves, fighting styles, weapons and combos.I'll talk about the idea for the other systems tomorrow.

Actually, that sounds like a good idea.

AS LONG AS....

It's only one kharacter's ability, and not everyone. I can see 4 kharacters that should be able to have such ability:

Shinnok
Shang Tsung
Shao Kahn
Khameleon

Other than that, it'd be really awesome if a brand new kharacter was made with those powers.

How about a new character that has no attacks to begin with, but gains any attack that he/she is hit with? Then that attack could be 1.5x as powerful as the original one, making it fair since this character has to get attacked before he/she can attack.

this idea is much better then the original intention. having a blank slate sounds good, maybe they can use it with the KAK.

Wasn't that shujinko purpose? He start as an useless character, with no powers at all and than he start to absorb the powers of warriors he fight.

I agree. I don't hate the idea but only 1 character should be able to do that. And it wouldn't be like ssb. It could be like Nightwolf's projectile reflect move, only it absorbs it. Doing the move again releases the projectile. Pretty cool idea but yeah one person with that move would be enough.
