Ermac's ending is very funny in MK Deception. Bro really cleared a 1 v 5 against, Soyna, Johnny, Jax, Kitana and Kung Lao. Should've brought that ***** to fight the Deadly Alliance. Also Jade managed to put in work too in both her ending and Sindel's. And since Sub-Zero was one of the good guys that didn't get cooked, I think if Raiden rolled up with 4 ninjas(I think Kitana could still been useful) and Kenshi he would've been fine.
Yeah, MMX, Venom, New Thanos, Captain Marvel and Ultron were some of the earliest characters that were handled in the mods. All from MVCI. I think Monster Hunter as well, but I can't remember all of them. I DID like how cool Ultron's Cross Laser move looks in UMVC3's mod. It's a really stylish move so I'm happy to see that kept.
Then it was mostly going back and forth between some TVC(Namely Batsu) and MVC1/2 peeps and "originals". Personally, I'm waiting for Black Panther and OG Mega Man. Or hell, Volnutt since TVC's newcomers weren't touched up on THAT much. The current major addition from any of the other games I saw was Blackheart. And outside of the games, Blade and Magma Dragoon were being worked on.
I think the mods still require using someone else as a base. I can't remember if they got to War Machine yet.
Though there's also Rashid, Jon Talbain, Carnage, Shocker, Bishop, The Thing, Red-She Hulk, Ghost Spider and Nero who weren't any official games yet. I think Hinata (Rival Schools) was as well, since they probably just modded Sakura who was modded off of Ryu or Akuma.
I'm sure they'll get to them eventually, but there's A LOT of characters being made for it.
And on top of that there's also variant of existing characters, probably because that's easier to implement Evil Ryu, than spending months creating Gambit for example.
Current drawing trend. She's one of those characters that carries a lot of those too.
