Jarek from MK4 was an obvious Kano clone too, but pretty much any of the newcomers from the 3D games could be redeemed or made unique, if how different Ermac and Kenshi became from each other in MK9 (gameplay-wise, despite both being telekinetics) is any indication. It didn't help that most of the newer characters were just tossed aside or faded into obscurity prior to or after Armageddon.

MK has plenty to work with to not need much more new characters, IMO. Maybe one or two here and there like how we got Skarlet in 9, but nothing beyond that.
