The only good thing about Darrius was his alternate costume which served as a reference to the 70's black martial artist star Jim Kelly. Otherwise, he was a more generic version of Blade.

Still surreal to see actual news for the MK movie reboot. I await to see the casting choices for Scorpion and the rest. He's not generic like Blade. He had his own unique backstory and moveset when he debuted in Deception. Being leader of the Seidan Resistance? That is an interesting arc for someone like Darrius. And Kira was more likeable than Kobra when they both debuted. And it's true.
