Ermac's design.

[sidewinder_G]

Man . . . I just . . .

Ok, so here's Ermac, from MKD:

And then, here's him, from MK9:

And this is his alternate from MK9:

So we go from those, a mystical telekinetic ninja, to a corpse in MKX, whose face and nose and mouth was something NOBODY asked to see:

https://static.wikia.nocookie.net/injusticefanon/images/c/c5/ErmacRender1.png/revision/latest?cb=20160428153000

From there, to probably the most overdesigned but at the same time, INSANELY cool costume, WHICH WAS NEVER USED SINCE HE WASN'T EVEN IN MK11:

And now, we're left with a freaking cross between the characters from ANTZ and a mummy.

NRS. A simple google search on the matter will solve things.

VERY few people like Ermac's MK1 look.

He just needs a mask
I think its almost sure he will have one with customization, but would be even better if NRS put an official mask in his main outfit if he happens to be in the story mode

[Shoah Kahn]

He looks like a withered conjurer, which is, in the context of his abilities, what he should be. NRS seem to have gotten sick of some of their incongruous character designs (particularly regarding the race of the "Asian" characters), and have made the associated change-ups as such.

For me, as long as the characters who are not logically one race (or species) or another, are not arbitrarily "re-racialised", I'm fine with the changes (so far). Certain characters in the MK universe should not be altered too much, however, lest they lose their personalities -- Shao [Kahn] being a prime example (whose not human anyway), as is Quan Chi (more of a caricature, than any particular race of character).

[Star Rain]

A mummy design is cool. like Anakaris or that KI mummy, and different from the rest of the cast.

[OVERWATCH]

Are there really people who like his MK1 design? Even fanboys hate it... His MK9 alt outfit is god like

There will be customize costumes anyway, probably to show even more bandages hopefully.

[Realigo Actual]

What I like about the MK9 skin, is that it looks less wizardy and more mystic ninja-y. Looks like he learned the magic in the dojo and forest not the academy or the dungeon. And this is long after he started getting wizardy. They need to get back to that. Especially now that Rain has full derp put on his robe and wizard hat gone full blown larp mode.

[Star Rain]

well its about time somebody dressed like a real life wizard, Shang fails hard.

[Jeremoople]

Yeah, I like the glowing eyes, but otherwise, this is quite a bland design

[Leon]

One thing they could do is Jiangshi-fie Ermac, It would really suit the corpse trope and the asian fantasy atmosphere

Like this[scontent.fcpq2-1.fna.fbcdn.net], but wearing mask and instead of the amulet attached on the forehead, it could be written on his skin

Other exemple [2e.aonprd.com]

[RaysGoodLiquor]

I mained Ermac in MK9 and his MK1 design is ♥♥♥♥. So is Reptile. The lizard man look was horrible in MK4 and it's still horrible today.

Don't be giving them any ideas, or else they'll think that people really want that.

[Star Rain]

Just make him look like The Rock already.
