#3. Sub-Zero
WHAT THE FUCK. WHY ISN'T HE #1! Thats right, sub-zero gets the number 3 spot on this outrageous list. The fact of the matter is that there are really two sub-zeroes, with endless possibilities for the future so theres not really a dude to cheer for here. Even you and me could oneday be sub-zero...well not you but, I could be frikidy freeze himself. Some downfalls include that girl sub-zero frost which I think is basically just gay, and in the end made him slightly less cool. nuff said. Sub-zero became probably one of the easiest characters to use due to his special traits and was the only character you could beat goro with in MK:2 (hard mode). He can be given the title of coolest looking ninja in the history of life, but also the title of worst fatality. (He tosses the tiniest snow ball at the dude, who then blows up). It is just not satisfying. He comes with the good, and also some bad, makin him a solid numba 3.
#2. Scorpion
Well the day finally came where I put forth slightly more regard for scorpion then sub-zero. Who knew id betray such a close friend. Overall and over the course of the series, scorpion has never changed his mission statement. He's fuckin evil, likes to yell shit, and you can never kill him cause he'll somehow return in ghost form and just be an annoying piece of shit to deal with over and over again, forever. Probably my most favorite thing about scorpion are his sayings such as Get Over Here, Get Down Here, and my least favorite, Get Out. He could really just scream stuff the whole match cause it would fit his character, but the makers had to draw the line somewhere... Scorpion also has the fastest sweep kick out of any character in any game. You can probably link 5 to 6 consecutive sweep kicks on a regular basis while the other player throws his controller at the T.V. smashing it everywhere and then stomps on your arms. The moral is that you can choose to play scorpion, but if you do youre a cheater.

#1. Raiden
Raiden is god.
When I can finish 4 different games with him using only one move, you know that something awesome has been born. Back Back Forward punch, Back Back Forward Punch, over and over and over and over. Just to hear him scream while he's flying through the air gives me a bonner straight away. One thing most people don't know is that raiden's throw radius is huge. You could be standing at the opposite end of the arena, and I could still grab you and throw you. There's just no complaints here...well besides that short haired dude that played him in MK: Aninihilation, but besides that this is the greatest and most powerful of all the Mortal Kombat characters and any new ones.
