Truth is a lot of characters introduced in MK3 are gonna have it rough for making the MK vs DCU roster. You can expect mainly MK1/MK2 characters.

LOL, Sheeva is nowhere near the status of Iconic. Being that shes the 3rd Shokan introduced in MK, makes here unoriginal. Of course thats like saying since theres a heep load of humans that the humans are just as unoriginal as a 3rd Shokan but the thing is...What did Sheeva bring to the table that Goro or Kintaro didnt...HELL!!! What did Kintaro or Sheeva bring to the table that Goro didnt? The more Iconic Shokan is Goro.

Now hold on a minute. Time to contradict myself...Sheeva was the first female Shokan in MK, She was the first playable Shokan in an MK game. These rasons however are not sufficiant enough to make Sheeva a likely Candidate for MKvsDC.

Besides, who could she be compared to on the DC side? There is no one, at least I dont think there is. With these strikes against her, its pretty safe to say she wont be in this game.


I think that her being the first (and only) female Shokan, and the first playable Shokan, are both excellent reasons for including her. As to who she would be matched against, I've thought of that too.

Wonder Woman, of course. They're both super-strong women and are probably the only two women between the two franchises that could trade blows. Makes more sense than Sonya, who I don't think would so much as inconvenience WW.



Sheeva is prob the WORST character EVER! she is worse then Kobra come kon she was just a copy and paste of Kintaro or Goro and she is the first playable Shokan that mahes her iconic? i don't think so also she has been playable on 2 games and thats it Sonya is WAY more iconic then Sheeva she is ONLY know cos she is named after a hindu god but it spelt with 2 e's. Tell me what isn't true expect she is the worst that is my opinion.

I'm loving the argument between Mileena and Crimson. Though i have to side with crimson for 2 reasons A) he makes much more sense and has out-witted you several times. sorry to say it but it's true. and B)The fact is that you're sheeva sonya thing made no sense. The fact is that if i said 'Sheeva is iconic' than i am in no way even suggesting that sonya isn't. And i know you were using sarcasm but the fact is that it had no relation. It would have been better if you said 'SURE sheeva's the most iconic charecter EVER!' see now isn't that better? and regarding the topic, i think sheeva is a pretty lame charecter but that's not why she isn't iconic enough. It's because she was introduced so later on and has been in so few games that it appears that the staff considers her un-iconic. though i may be wrong. can't wait to find otu!
-peace

IMO i think Sheeva has a good chance of being in the game. Just like someone said above me, Goro and Kintaro probably aren't going to be in because they are two of the biggest characters and the whole fighting system would have to be revamped for it to work well with them and thats exactly why I think Sheeva has the best chance out of the Shokan. She's not ridiculously bigger than the other fighters and is more...idk how else to describe it, but more "human" than the other Shokan. Thoughts?

The first playable as well as first female shokan in an MK game makes her an icon in a way. She lacks looks which defies a typical female video game character which i like. I wish MK would make more female shokans though besides Sheeva.
