I wonder how his "police brutality" line would fly these days.

Johnny Cage always had those "green" after images though, and could fling the green energy blasts.

He was able to throw grenades and shoot a gun. Id say that made up for it.

At least a dude that's just a cop has a tiny bit of a leg to stand on because presumably he has some sort of weapons or martial arts training. They still have a regularly occurring character whose traits are he's an Australian and that's about it.

IIRC (Don't hold me to this I could be wrong) he was actually designed by a fan.

During the lanch of MKII they they did some kind of contest where you were supposed to create a character and submit it to Midway to be used in MK3

The winners were Stryker, Kabal and Nightwolf

Which makes sense. In a game series where every 2nd character is a ninja, those were 3 of the most diverse characters

Did Kabal have any special powers beyond taking off his mask/respirator?

Still better than any MK4-Armageddon character not named Quan-Chi/Kenshi/Shinnok.

In the original mk3, I thought Stryker was a mall cop.

Stryker was actually op as fuck in Ultimate MK3(his gun wasn't in the regular MK3).

He had a combo with the gun that was fucking devastating and was really hard to block.

Stryker was a riot officer in a big city he would absolutely be trained in close combat shit. That's basically like full time SWAT

I liked Shujinko. I didn't really like what they did with him in Armageddon but he was great in deception.

I'm still surprised they didn't add Shujinko to MK11 considering the way that game used so many customization options for appearance AND movesets. He would have been such a natural choice but he just stayed home.

Please...

go play the Tekken games. literally play as a panda, a cyborg, a training dummy made out of wood, a kangaroo, a masked wrestler, Nina that's a cop or secret agent.

then there's Killer Instinct. a boxer, a cloned raptor dinosaur, a werewolf, a skeleton, an iceman from outer space
