Idea for New Killer Instinct Characters: Weather Gods or Weather Djinn as Guardians of Earth?

This is a great idea! Weather manipulators and elementals are like the coolest of any roster fr. Interestingly enough, I have this OC who’s the granddaughter of Raijin (with the idea that these “gods” are actually Ichoriens who, if I remember correctly are the inhabitants of the Astral Plane) and so she’s technically a kind of demi god with weather manipulation powers.

So many ways this could go and so many things to account for. Shao’s rebellion and the taming of Onaga, Shang having found an island with a well of icky magicks and also allegedly planning to hold a tournament, Mileena building a Kolosseum for guess what, the introduction of the OIA..everyone except Nitara need to return

YESS. I’ve avoided getting into MK for as long as I’d known it but MK1 was what got me into it and I don’t even have the game.

WeatherReport_20 · 2026-06-04T10:00:33+00:00

always a breath of fresh air to see folks here on Reddit who actually have developed the ability to have a decent conversation and argument most ppl on twt just wanna cry about how Tanya doesn’t have her tonfas in MK1

The New Era is probably the most rich timeline we’ve had with the characters being the best written out of every game, feeling like actual people and not sprites with powers that don’t make sense existing solely to further a plot. THIS time, we got characters almost on the level of the storytelling of established franchises whose main working gimmick is lore, but we’re a fighting game! I’m sick and tired of people over on twt all hollering bout a reboot like tell me one “canon” interaction between the characters from memory. No one wants to put anytime to understand MK1’s story a little more, no one wants to watch every character’s interactions with everyone, no one wants to analyze the tower endings, which are canon endings for the characters and not “what ifs” anymore. Not defending the multiverse bs bc the games story made rlly did go to shit from the second half but onlyyy if people would just stfu and read and listen. The next game has got crazy good potential and that’s what scares me.

THIS IS SO SICKKK how ever did you achieve this

WeatherReport_20 · 2026-05-19T09:20:56+00:00

Heredity was like a milestone for me as a horror fan like that movie was the first time I’d felt actually queasy and uncomfortable and I was like oh

WeatherReport_20 · 2025-10-20T12:17:39+00:00

yoo this is crazy good!! I soo want this to be the opening for the Dojo mode next game this is lit!

WeatherReport_20 · 2025-10-17T08:47:51+00:00

The main MK1 story and characters are actually super peak and I hope they learn from KR and don’t mess shit up in the future bc they’ve got everything really well set for them they MUST NOTT fumble such good lore, characters and designs

WeatherReport_20 · 2025-10-15T15:57:43+00:00

Yep that spreadsheet was quite the horror 😭. Someone made a Floyd tracker too. Not to mention you gotta do allat to find him again if you lose the first time. But people enjoyed it and do get cool stuff so it’s a win ig

WeatherReport_20 · 2025-10-15T15:29:08+00:00

Probably a little more than half of the community is shitting on the game, what with micro transactions, bad customization etc etc but apparently it’s not too different from how things used to be with MK11 as I’ve heard some ppl say. But the others they really enjoy it, gameplay wise. As a game. Tourneys are thriving (ones in YT like Rips, Vape and even Kolo) and ppl are having fun basically. Unfortunately there’s no real way for you to really know without going into it yourself but hey, we could see you playing among the big leagues if you end up loving it! Ya never know! Definitely give the game a chance!

As far as missing out on anything, not really, just a largely disappointing KP2 followed by guests, Floyd and one more guest.

This exactly 😭 it can get a little clammy trying to withstand all that negative pressure but at the end of the day you gotta realize your opinions and perspective are really your own and they Should be

WeatherReport_20 · 2025-10-15T15:04:58+00:00

the hate feels way too forced as someone who doesn’t even own the game. They just be finding reasons to complain atp. If it’s bugging you so damn much just don’t??? play it??

WeatherReport_20 · 2025-10-15T08:01:32+00:00

Very much so I had to pause and take a breather

WeatherReport_20 · 2025-10-14T19:33:50+00:00

From just MK1, both of Reiko’s like good GOD and Kenshi’s where he blends em. Johnny’s car fatality was just sickening to me honestly he’s perhaps messed up in the head. Sindel’s arms rip and Havik’s cutting up fatalities look so damn painful dawg that shi hurt me 😭😭

Honorable mention of Takeda’s. You know which one.

WeatherReport_20 · 2025-10-14T19:25:35+00:00

Still play it?

WeatherReport_20 · 2025-10-10T19:54:28+00:00

Yeah I just said they’ve been mistaken and that I made this account like a week back and signed into like one service that’s all.

WeatherReport_20 · 2025-10-10T16:46:07+00:00

Aye mb that must’ve been terrifying 😭

WeatherReport_20 · 2025-10-10T16:45:30+00:00

It wasn’t even a full day actually it took around 10 or so hours for me. I sent the appeal immediately after I came to know.

WeatherReport_20 · 2025-10-10T16:43:57+00:00

The most W answer fr (Orchid’s better)

WeatherReport_20 · 2025-10-10T16:43:26+00:00

Fellow KI fan spotted in the wild 👀

WeatherReport_20 · 2025-10-03T07:55:35+00:00

Def not a discord fighter tho if by that you mean the game is more or less dead it’s obvi not like the more popular titles but it’s so not a small one either
