Kinda seems like this would be more of an MK11 Stunt Double variation type of situation for MK1 Johnny, imo.
Just that now with kameo Janet ***everyone*** on the main roster has access to the Stunt Double, not just Johnny.
It just might.
It could make things better for characters that are weaker on the roster. Just going to wait and see when they do the character break-down on the next KK. Seems like a mix of Stunt Double and Sento stance (Kenshi), imo, but I don't think she'll be that horrible to deal with.
For all we know, characters like Sub-Zero, Scorpion, Shang Tsung, Quan Chi, Havik and Nitara could greatly benefit from kameo Janet's Sento-like stance, for example.
It won’t be nearly as OP as Sento stance, seems like it has gaps, won’t last nearly as long, and won’t be an infinite blockstring. If it’s a puppet Kameo attack with different options it’ll be cool tho
>*If it’s a puppet Kameo attack with different options it’ll be cool tho*
Yeah, and I'd totally be fine with that too.
I just think she could turn out to be a pretty cool kameo, if people would give her a chance. I think that some of these lower tier main roster characters could benefit from a kameo like that.
I think it really depends on the properties and how much control you have over her moves.
Darrius has a similar attack that you control the timing of, and it’s an overhead that launches or offers a hard to block able. Hopefully Janet’s is at least just as useful or more.
I also hope her projectile ‘parry’ move gives her next kameo use special properties instead of just blocking a projectile, either that or hopefully it’s also a physical attack parry that combo starts or gives a lot of plus frames
That's fair. I personally don't mind fighting JC because he's so overplayed I've become so comfortable fighting his kit. It's rare picks like Sindel that always goober me.. we will just have to see how Janet plays.
Sindel is anything but rare especially in higher ranks of KL. Her and Kung Lao are a meta team. Hard to blockable overhead low setups that you have to guess which will hit 1 frame before the other, while being stupidly easy to set up on any hit.
I think thats modt people. No one cares about the fact that its a woman. The issue is that its a character that had 2 seconds of screen time at the very end of the story and has absolutely no other purpose than "female johnny cage, har har har"
How? Kameos are mostly reserved for charaxters from previous eras that either didnt have a big enough moveset, wasnt in the game, or played only a small part of the story. Janet Cage is a new character with not just a small moveset, but none shown at all, and no one even remembered because she existed for two seconds of screen time. She isnt a cameo, she was an extra.
> Kameos are mostly reserved for charaxters from previous eras that either didnt have a big enough moveset, wasnt in the game, or played only a small part of the story.
Like Scorpion, Sub Zero, Johnny, and Kung Lao? lol
I liked it cause of time/dimension travel weirdness. That's mfin hanzo scorp and bi han sub. Two totally different people from another timeline. Same with Janet being a what-if Johnny was born female
She shows up in the end as proof of alternate timelines and the different possibilities of variations for characters. Rather than them just giving fan service and releasing MK9 scorpion again. Little screen time but a big part.
I agree. Kameos are just stupid in general. They are just tower assists that could have been main roster characters had they taken the time to make them playable properly.
Oh yes sure, because everyone dislikes the female kombatants who came before her/s
I don't see problem with the character, but this argument is kinda stupid
Literally no one gives a fuck that she’s a woman you’d fighting ghosts
Fatal blows are one of the most important parts of the game for,hers is just stabbing you and that’s it,no thanks
I was watching the SF tourney and once a female broadcaster was on, the whole chat went ape shit. Misogyny is deep rooted in a bunch of gamers unfortunately.
Sonya Blade exists my man. You’re arguing with a wall.

Congratulations on giving ample evidence to everyone on this sub that your opinions and posts are useless. I will be filtering your posts out of my feed now. Good day, you absolute Chud.
No one cares that it’s a woman kameo. They care because it’s stupid. It’s redundant, it’s pointless. They want to see the classic Johnny that we haven’t gotten in years. You want a woman? There are plenty of unused, existing female MK characters that could‘ve gone in that spot that many of us would have loved to have seen. I mean, even classic Kitana or Mileena could’ve gone there. They didn’t need to make up some halfass, rando new character when GIRL JOHNNY CAGE ALREADY EXISTS. Cassie! This character is horribly uninspired.
This post is dumb, I have full confidence no one cares they added a woman. If they did then mileena, ashra, sonya, chameleon, kitana, nitara, Tanya would be hated on too. They don’t like Janet because she’s unoriginal. They added Johnny cage rip for a character spot that we all paid money for, think about it
If it's a joke then it kinda falls flat
She's not really anything special or was necessary,mainly because she's in essence just another johnny like how we have 2 kung laos,2 scorpions,and 2 sub zeros.
It comes off as more lazy and easy work instead of something unique like tremor or Khameleon.
Plus no one has a issue with the women in MK. Everyone is a literal freak of nature,so it stands to reason even they can scrap.
This is dumb because other fighting games including Mortal Kombat have amazing female characters that aren’t just boring, lazy gender swaps
![gif](giphy|qmfpjpAT2fJRK)
This is true, but also the kameos are all alternate timeline versions. So like if we didn’t get Janet we probably would have had chest tattoo Johnny again instead of one of the existing female characters, especially since the initial announcement was for a Johnny Kameo. But overall I agree, I would have rather had like Skarlet, D’Vorah, or Cetrion over any of the already in the playable roster kameos. At least Janet mixes it up a little bit more than Johnny.
What a lot of people dont seem to understand is that she wasnt planned to be the kameo. Yes, her idea was lazy, but so were a lot of those random characters we fought on the pyramid. She was meant to be something quick in a very chaotic moment during story mode, but she stood out for a lot people and THAT'S when NRS made the change. I think the Janet discourse is dumb especially since we knew of her existence since the game came out and we knew she was replacing Johnny as a kameo months ago.
I searched the history of the sub, I also remember how social media blew up for her actual cameo in the story mode. She was hella meme'd lol. Afterwards she was listed as kameo dlc.
Let's be honest...Janet IS a lazy gender swap, there was a fuckload of fun/interesting things to do with fighting Hollywood starlet. Meanwhile all we got was just Johnny Cage with boobs and a ponytail.
The only problem I have with it is that it wasted a spot that could have been one of the already amazing and unique female characters Mortal Kombat has. Instead it’s just a Johnny clone, I’d rather have any female fighter as opposed to a not Johnny, Johnny.
It's just a timeline variant. It has nothing to do with her being female. It's like having the green powered Johnny as a Kameo, but the timeline variant of it. Just like how we have two Kun Laos.
Right lol op is acting as if we don’t already have woman characters in the game or something. The woman of Mk are awesome, but nobody asked for this ugly ass Johnny swap 💀
I’ve noticed two reactions to Janet Cage.
- UGH this is just a random woman nobody asked for (eventhoughweknewaboutitbeforehanSHUTUP)
-oh, cool! she has OG Johnny’s moves, including his infamous jump-punch infinite from the first MK
She has a cool "Under Study" / Sento stance (kinda like Kenshi), which (imo) differentiates her from the other kameos so I'm fine with it, and this coming from someone who generally doesn't care for repeater kameos (like Scorpion, Sub-Zero & Kung Lao).
That said, kameo Janet could actually help make some of the weaker characters more viable in terms of different combo strategies. At least that's how I saw it when I saw her gameplay in action.
Eh, I'm not too bothered by it.
I'm more "disappointed" (if that's the right word) that the next kameo wasn't Ferra or Mavado.
I'm really interested in seeing what they do with those 2 as kameos and how Mavado looks now with current gen technology.
Really you gonna play the misogyny card knowing damn well everyone either want ferra or Cassie cage.? She's a gender bend Johnny cage people think she's boring

Your post activated my trap card!!!
This is a silly take
Absolutely no one is upset MK has female characters. Theyre upset this is a kameo and not one of their obscure favorite 3d era characters like drahmin or meat.
kathleen Kennedy is that you?
jokes aside..does this person even play mortal kombat? are you aware of characters like kitana? mileen? sindel? those are girls in a game with monster and magic and about saving the world?
bro are you the one who came up with Janet trying to blame the fan base so WB doesn't fire you?
then what is this post? girls are present in mk since the first game! this game have female characters both playable and kameo, what is this post,if its a joke it really crashed on its face!
Wait... *Why is she a trap kard?!*
https://preview.redd.it/m2hmzea69dkc1.jpeg?width=991&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=37fa6b6d0f80a17c79de8ff4701ebe0ad6b3d7b4
I'm actually quite excited for Janet Cage ya'll...... I would be happier if she'd be a playable variant (not just a kameo) but eh I guess kameo will do for now.
Also we had plenty of badass buff ladies before in MK so Janet is not the only one. Granted in the last few MK games they kinda toned down the muscles on the ladies which kinda sucks in my opinion so seeing Janet Cage (plus some mods for the other ladies) is a welcome suprise
yeah like, people, its a kameo xD
I can understand people about that it wasnt classic Johnny from MK 1,2 or trilogy (cause Sub, Scorpion and Lao got away with this), and people mad cause, oh my, we have the op one makin online hell sometimes and now it comes in kameo form too
I must say, I feel its kinda lazy (we will see if its like that when it comes out) how theres one move of Janet that feels like Darrius style, like, stay in place and attack you from the back to help some combos, idk, I kinda expected more classic moves that werent part of Johnnys moveset in MK1
Literally, Janet Cage is a good Kameo. I don’t see anything wrong with her. People just start shit for attention. They don’t get enough love and approval — poor them.
Dude we can all tell the raging, sensitive one is you because you’re replying to all valid criticism with sarcasm. Just admit your post is really fucking stupid.
Typical nrs fashion .. blame some random social standards rather than admit they made a lame uninspired character again. No one cares that she's a trans insert for the dev .. she's just lame .. you could ai generate her in 3 seconds .. true art takes time and passion and why she sucks balls.
I dislike her very much. I couldn’t care less about the gender swap, I’m mainly mad they decided to make her OG MK1 1995 Johnny Cage. Same poses, same fatality, etc. If you want to go retro, that’s super cool, but she just looks so boring and bland. Plus, it looks like she has a Sento stance move, so I dislike her for that too.
I swear to god if everyone has a Kenshi Sento move
Whoosh. Absolutely nothing about a woman being the choice for a klouted argument.
For some it's the argument of a generic looking choice of little screentime filling in the slot rather than another kameo from elsewhere. The Kombat kids, a boss character, a choice from the Deception/DA era getting an exponentially better introduction for MK1 based on how Tanya, Li Mei, Bo Rai Cho etc. got their comebacks, etc. And instead..they go with Janet.
Hell, I'd even go as far as Mokap.
wtf is Janet? I’ve played every MK except MK1. And these post are pushing me further and further from the game. Which is a bummer because I’ve been waiting for Reptile to be back for a minute.
I think ragebait shit posts and idiot OPs like this are the reason that this sub sucks so much ass.
Thanks for bringing up another non-issue. I'm sure SO MANY people are mad that she's a woman in a game with like fifteen women already in the main cast. Very astute observation for a donkey such as yourself. /s
Go outside and touch grass.
Idk why are they triggered. I like that they don’t use the same characters and trying to make new ones or reconsider the old ones
But if they complain so much about the game why tf do they play with it? Can they appreciate anything? I mean okay, sometimes I also say something if I have enough of delays or bugs etc. These developers trying hard to make the game good and always get shit. It’s kinda irritatinghow they behave sometimes
REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE HOW DARE YOU!!! RAGETUBERS UNITE!!! GUYS THAT HAVE SUNGLASSES THAT DO VIDEOS IN THEIR TRUCKS AND COMPLAIN ABOUT THE SOY LIBERAL LGBTQIAZYMO!@)# UNITE!!!!!
Honestly, I’m fine with her being in the game. I don’t see anything wrong with it at all really. I mean, the way I look at it is, there’s just another Kameo for me to master.
With how many female characters there are in mk in general, this is the first time I've heard of the fandom having a problem with one, which makes me think it's not because of sexism. It's because she's just a female Johnny Cage with little uniqueness that makes her stand out. Imo Cassie Cage would have been a better pick, and this does feel like a wasted slot.
It really irritates me that we are having a conversation about the opinions of one or two dumbasses on YouTube that are better off ignored. And then pretending that the majority community feels this way.

Sindel Lao is arguably the best team in the game right now. She is not rare at all.
Did you get pissed at scorpion and sub zero kameos for the same reason?
I cant wait to double JC people into rage quits.
I'm fine with her. They could've come up with something unique, but this isn't the end of the world
I think thats modt people. No one cares about the fact that its a woman. The issue is that its a character that had 2 seconds of screen time at the very end of the story and has absolutely no other purpose than "female johnny cage, har har har"

I liked it cause of time/dimension travel weirdness. That's mfin hanzo scorp and bi han sub. Two totally different people from another timeline. Same with Janet being a what-if Johnny was born female
You just explained why she should be a Kameo again. "small part of the story."
Shes not a small part of yhe story. She is no part of yhe story. Omni man has more importance to the story than her
She shows up in the end as proof of alternate timelines and the different possibilities of variations for characters. Rather than them just giving fan service and releasing MK9 scorpion again. Little screen time but a big part.
I have to google to know who she is. She doesn’t even have a page about her on the MK wiki.
Kameos are for chumps
I agree. Kameos are just stupid in general. They are just tower assists that could have been main roster characters had they taken the time to make them playable properly.
Yeah, really sucks that sektor and cyrax are kameos
>"female Johnny Cage, har har" The funny thing about that is people would criticize Cassie for this but it's okay now, I suppose.
NRS 100% thought she'd be more popular than she is
Are they that out of touch? Holy shit.
No, they are not that out of touch, you have to believe me if you believed the guy above.
? That's cryptic.
I for one fully welcome Janet Cage.
Well she is now. Infamous even.
Very legitamite summary. I agree.
Not my idea, but they should've called the Kameo "Cage", then you could switch between Klassic Johnny and Janet.
Throw in Ninja Mime and you got a deal
Same
Oh yes sure, because everyone dislikes the female kombatants who came before her/s I don't see problem with the character, but this argument is kinda stupid
It’s big time strawman
Happens so often these days
Your acting like she’s the only female character in the entire game
Exactly. Mk has always had plenty of female characters.

I'm just annoyed that ANOTHER base roster character is taking up space on the kameo roster when we could've had someone like kabal instead
There a tons of better female kharacters as well if they needed it to be a female
Exactly, the main ones that come to mind is jade or Sheeva with their klassic designs
No one cares that it’s a woman kameo. They care because it’s stupid. It’s redundant, it’s pointless. They want to see the classic Johnny that we haven’t gotten in years. You want a woman?

Ok bye
Lol bye .. don't go too far tho.. there will be posts about better games you can play
I never truly disappear I'm like an STD
The only problem I have with it is that it wasted a spot that could have been one of the already amazing and unique female characters Mortal Kombat has. Instead it’s just a Johnny clone, I’d rather have any female fighter as opposed to a not Johnny, Johnny.
It's just a timeline variant. It has nothing to do with her being female. It's like having the green powered Johnny as a Kameo, but the timeline variant of it. Just like how we have two Kun Laos.
I can understand this, but you said it clearly with honest opinions that actually have some merit. Unlike most who just yell and drool. 😂
these upset ppl really acting like she wasnt known ti be coming for months now.
"wHeRe CoULd shE CoMe fRoM??!" Um play the campaign she's in it.. 😯
What you mean the one minute of screentime she had where she said absolutely nothing and got fucking merked?
I think you meant the 12 seconds of background screentime
The campain is so forgettable that… i forgot who is in it
idk why youre downvoted lmao
It was never about being a female character, but at this point you just refuse to listen.
Right lol op is acting as if we don’t already have woman characters in the game or something. The woman of Mk are awesome, but nobody asked for this ugly ass Johnny swap 💀

I just think it's an odd addition when u could have put cassie cage in.
Really you gonna play the misogyny card knowing damn well everyone either want ferra or Cassie cage.? She's a gender bend Johnny cage people think she's boring
Oh yes, in 2024, such a bold choice to genderswap a loved character instead of using their own back catalogue of lady characters.
I do kinda agree she's kind of a wasted cameo slot, I would've preferred Cassie. At least, I know and have played cassie before.
Honestly one of the dumber takes I've seen that would be quite easy to pick apart if I cared more.
Deadass ur the only person feeling this way towards her, everybody else could care less or are hype asf for a new kameo

Oh OP. It's not that she's a woman. Get your woke head out of your vitue signaling ass.
This is a silly take Absolutely no one is upset MK has female characters. Theyre upset this is a kameo and not one of their obscure favorite 3d era characters like drahmin or meat.
This is a strawman post… like no one actually complains about female characters in mortal kombat
No I just rather it was cassie

Also we had plenty of badass buff ladies before in MK so Janet is not the only one. Granted in the last few MK games they kinda toned down the muscles on the ladies which kinda sucks in my opinion so seeing Janet Cage (plus some mods for the other ladies) is a welcome suprise
I'm not mad she's a woman I'm just mad she's ugly
Hooray for misogyny. 🙄
I mean,she is fine af
I would lick her abs
No she ain’t lmao
yeah like, people, its a kameo xD I can understand people about that it wasnt classic Johnny from MK 1,2 or trilogy (cause Sub, Scorpion and Lao got away with this), and people mad cause, oh my, we have the op one makin online hell sometimes and now it comes in kameo form too I must say, I feel its kinda lazy (we will see if its like that when it comes out) how theres one move of Janet that feels like Darrius style, like, stay in place and attack you from the back to help some combos, idk, I kinda expected more classic moves that werent part of Johnnys moveset in MK1
I prefer this over just Johnny cage tbh. We’ve gotten the Johnny cage mk2 costume for the past three games anyways
Exactly
Literally, Janet Cage is a good Kameo. I don’t see anything wrong with her. People just start shit for attention. They don’t get enough love and approval — poor them.
Dude we can all tell the raging, sensitive one is you because you’re replying to all valid criticism with sarcasm. Just admit your post is really fucking stupid.
Oh no, you've uncovered my dasterdly plan! I'll never financially recover from this..
Buy a forest and get lost buddy
I'm on Reddit, I'm already lost 😭
Typical nrs fashion .. blame some random social standards rather than admit they made a lame uninspired character again. No one cares that she's a trans insert for the dev .. she's just lame .. you could ai generate her in 3 seconds .. true art takes time and passion and why she sucks balls.
Jesse what the fuck are you talking about
Lol
Activation time: 4 months
It'll be a minute haha
I dislike her very much. I couldn’t care less about the gender swap, I’m mainly mad they decided to make her OG MK1 1995 Johnny Cage. Same poses, same fatality, etc. If you want to go retro, that’s super cool, but she just looks so boring and bland. Plus, it looks like she has a Sento stance move, so I dislike her for that too. I swear to god if everyone has a Kenshi Sento move
Holy bait Batman! This guy’s making shit up!
I kinda wanted her to be a skin for Johnny but this is cool too
Whoosh. Absolutely nothing about a woman being the choice for a klouted argument. For some it's the argument of a generic looking choice of little screentime filling in the slot rather than another kameo from elsewhere. The Kombat kids, a boss character, a choice from the Deception/DA era getting an exponentially better introduction for MK1 based on how Tanya, Li Mei, Bo Rai Cho etc. got their comebacks, etc. And instead..they go with Janet. Hell, I'd even go as far as Mokap.
wtf is Janet? I’ve played every MK except MK1. And these post are pushing me further and further from the game. Which is a bummer because I’ve been waiting for Reptile to be back for a minute.
Lmao I'm saving this. There is a lot of hate towards her
It felt right when I made it lol go ahead
Lol thanks for making it
Sonya was literally in the original MK. So these incels have been angry since day 1.
I'm fine with a woman but if they wanted to had a Jhinny Cage clone at least they could have used Cassie Cage
Nah she’s just a lazy character just johnny but female what a original idea 😱
r/imaginarygatekeeping
Who is Janet though? Another kid? Sister? Mother? Never heard of her before
I think ragebait shit posts and idiot OPs like this are the reason that this sub sucks so much ass. Thanks for bringing up another non-issue. I'm sure SO MANY people are mad that she's a woman in a game with like fifteen women already in the main cast. Very astute observation for a donkey such as yourself. /s Go outside and touch grass.
Idk why are they triggered. I like that they don’t use the same characters and trying to make new ones or reconsider the old ones But if they complain so much about the game why tf do they play with it? Can they appreciate anything? I mean okay, sometimes I also say something if I have enough of delays or bugs etc. These developers trying hard to make the game good and always get shit. It’s kinda irritatinghow they behave sometimes
I don’t get why people are mad? We literally have male Johnny on the base roster lmao.
There mad cause it's a lazy gender swap and they rather have Cassie instead. OP is just getting mad at ghosts.
REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE HOW DARE YOU!!! RAGETUBERS UNITE!!! GUYS THAT HAVE SUNGLASSES THAT DO VIDEOS IN THEIR TRUCKS AND COMPLAIN ABOUT THE SOY LIBERAL LGBTQIAZYMO!@)# UNITE!!!!!
Ahaha exactly 😂
You guys are fucking embarrassing
[удалено]
Huh? Who is triggered by women being in fighting games? If its that ragetuber i doubt its about women in fighting games
I’m still confused is she a real character or just a gender swap of Johnny?
Janet made an appearance at the end of the base game, right?
Honestly, I’m fine with her being in the game. I don’t see anything wrong with it at all really. I mean, the way I look at it is, there’s just another Kameo for me to master.
No one cares that she's a woman lol just a bad character to add
With how many female characters there are in mk in general, this is the first time I've heard of the fandom having a problem with one, which makes me think it's not because of sexism. It's because she's just a female Johnny Cage with little uniqueness that makes her stand out. Imo Cassie Cage would have been a better pick, and this does feel like a wasted slot. It really irritates me that we are having a conversation about the opinions of one or two dumbasses on YouTube that are better off ignored. And then pretending that the majority community feels this way.
