At this point Scrappy is slowly edging out from Character that is generally agreed upon by the ENTIRE Fandom is awful

to

Random Hatesink for a vocal aspect of the Fanbase

All that entry is sensationalized so it paints the picture to anyone reading it thinks that D'vorah is already hated even though she's one of the more Popular newcomers

and i'm noticing that its trend that is getting worse and worse with Tropers trying to give their part of the fandom an edge in the internet debate

Here thinking Noob is the edgiest character and here comes Frost and somehow she keeps up with the literal shadow man.

Why are cryomancers so edgy? Kuai Liang is a sweetheart compared to those two.

Hanzo's edge pre-Character Development makes up for it.

The Scrappy’s needed cleanup for years. Recent years have made me doubt how much most Scrappies are even relevant examples at all - even classic ones like Scrappy himself. And either way, it’s one of the most obvious examples of people just putting whatever on YMMV pages instead of things that are actually relevant.

But more on topic, I like how Frost has the Cold Field.

Hell, the original Scrappy-Doo was, once upon a time, popular enough that he saved the franchise from cancellation.

So is Frost a combination of her classic moveset and some cyber sub-zero thrown in?

Question of my own: Can you, as in MKX, unlock Fatalities by using them, or must they be unlocked properly?

If you know the input you can use them regardless.

Oh my f*cking god

  • Take That, Scrappy!: Meta example. D'Vorah quickly joined the ranks of Hsu Hao and MK9 Sindel among the most reviled characters in the franchise for her actions listed under Moral Event Horizon above. The fact that her Alien Blood allows gameplay videos to sneak past YouTube's content filters makes her the perfect Asshole Victim for fatality compilation videos. This has not gone unnoticed by players.

These tropers really hate D'Vorah

Is this multiple people editing pages like that or just one person who seriously hates D’Vorah?

At least two different tropers. So it doesn't seem like a Single-Issue Wonk from a single troper

You can check the history tab to see if it's a single person with a vendetta.

I did so. The Scrappy entry was added by RWBY Conservations while the Take That, Scrappy! was added by Warmachine3974.

In any case, you can't add Scrappy or Base breaker entries for new works. Those are only allowed after a 6 month wait according to new rules so both examples have been axed.

D'vorah killed two of my favorite characters in X and even I don't dislike her that much.

So the game is out today but I work so I won't get a chance to play it until tomorrow... for now, as a child of the 90's, I'll just bask in the irony of MK now getting flak from terrible people for being too politically correct now.

Indeed. Despite the old adage, there is such a thing as bad publicity.

Though I don't know if this counts in that case.

The whole boner culture nonsense has made complaining about the lack of fanservice way more of a joke than it already is.

Mostly referring to the fans.

They're all about Nether Realm doing what they want in the face of critics until they become the critics.

I mean, no stripper ninja costumes for the fact that that Kitana and Jade are insanely good-looking facially now is a very acceptable trade imo.

And going through them, they both have some... I guess I’ll call them “fanservice-lite” costumes that I think are nice looking without being absurd.

But yeah, I’m still amused at how there are people who can say stuff like “boner culture” and “#War On Fanservice” and not have a single flash of self-awareness.
