I wouldn't say he's most popular, because takeda is undoubtedly the best of the newbies nrs has made. He has more story to his character, he probably has already been deemed an official mk character instead of a newbie. Geras is well on his way to being a fan favorite as well but I think he needs more character development. For him to be in 2 games in a row is a good start.
Did Geras happen to take Shao Kahn's War Hammer? 2:07. I happened to sense a Walking Dead vibe he smashed Sub-Zero's head off like damn. But awesome video man 👊🏻👍🏻
