Raiden (MK11)

MK11 Edition Raiden is a character introduced in the new Mortal Kombat Mobile 2.0 Update.

Description
This variation of Raiden has an appearance similar to that of the first ever MK11 model, as seen in the surprise reveal trailer during The Game Awards 2018.

Apart from the Mortal Kombat X variations of Raiden, MK11 Raiden's basic attacks, special attacks, and Fatal Blow are brand new.

Raiden was introduced alongside the MK11 variations of Scorpion and Jade, and when teaming these three characters together, players can create a powerful team that grants each characters chances at Lethal Blow, the ability to heal from Damage Over Time and become immune to Power Drain.

Synergies
Here are some of the characters and equipment that work very well with Raiden to aid him in kombat.

Characters

 * Teammates
 * Jade (MK11) - Jade grants Raiden the ability to heal from Fire, Bleed, and Poison DOT. However, this ability cannot counter the effects of Dark Magic DOT during Challenge Battles and Ermac (Klassic)'s Soul Siphon DOT.
 * Scorpion (MK11) - Scorpion grants Raiden a 25% increased chance on lethal blow on basic attacks, increasing his damage output.
 * Kenshi (Elder God) - Kenshi grants Raiden immunity to Critical Attacks as well as an increased 20% Critical Hit chance on basic attacks.
 * Strengths in Battle
 * When Raiden is teamed with MK11 Characters, he and said characters are granted immunity to Power Drain. Characters like Johnny Cage, Kenshi, and Kitana would make little effort in a manner of power level.
 * Weaknesses in Battle
 * There are currently no known weaknesses Raiden may experience in kombat.
