2) What's wrong with Frost? Of the post-MK3 introductions, she's at least in the "passable" tier.

3) Better than Tanya, at any rate. Screw boring, personality-devoid Tanya. And why do so many people want Sareena? What the heck would she add to the story, even if Sub-Zero turns out to be Bi-Han?

4) With the "next" focus of MKX and Scorpion having an apprentice with Takeda, who better to include as Sub-Zero's own apprentice? "But Frost has ice powers, just like Sub-Zero, therefore she's boring!" And Takeda has arm-spears, just like Scorpion. Is he boring? We know very little about him thus far, and we know just as little about Frost's potential inclusion. Let it go.

5) Oh crap! I ended that last paragraph on an incidental reference to something related to ice! QUICK! Think of a completely different song! "Holy Diver" by Dio! "Dare to be Stupid" by Weird Al! Anything else! Passable tier? Hardly find her passable, but opinions.

I'm indifferent to Tanya, so suppose I can maybe agree there. At least Sareena actually has a past or something of a connection to the Sub-Zero brothers. What would Frost add to the story? Would she selfishly try to take over the Lin Kuei again? Please.

Seeing as how we really know NOTHING of Takeda's gameplay yet, that argument with him hasn't any merit really, and even if he had like one similar move to Scorpion with the arm-spears, he doesn't have Scorpion's hellfire powers, so he'll have to be most different in his fighting variations. Frost on the other hand, is just another cryomancer like Sub-Zero... Even Sareena could fill her shoes with the apprentice role and at the same time play more differently.
