Metal Overlord

Well yeah, but you'd probably be revived somehow anyway. This is Mortal Kombat, after all, no one ever really stays dead...Better to be a cyborg then a dead.

That is true Metal Overlord, plus both are fire and ice and when fire meets ice, it starts to get steamy.

Brotherhood of shadow.
But if I could only choose between these 2, Shirai Ryu. I am working hard to keep up with abs, I'd like to not lose those abs for wires and circuitry.

Neither. I'd be down with Zaterra and the Saurians! Reptile for the win!
For those who've played through the MKX story mode, did anyone think the design of the Lin Kuei was similar to the uniforms worn by the League of Shadows in Batman Begins and Arrow (specifically Malcom Merlyn's "Dark Archer" costume?
League of Shadows Ninja
Malcolm Merlyn / Dark Archer
(also, if Netherrealm Studios were to licence a replica Lin Kuei katana, would you get one?)

Hmmm... the clothes really are similar. And I would try to get the sword, if the thing was functional.
I feel I am not having much information about the topic at hand. I choose Lin Kuei, but that's because I like Sub-zero and I think the Blue Ninja would allow all kinds of people in the reformed clan. Doing good without the strict morals of the Shaolin. Blue is also my favourite color.
If I had to choose between the clans before mk4, I would still choose Lin Kuei still because... well, ice climate, cool clothes, being a robot is also fine since I would have an extended lifetime (if you say I would have no choice, then the purpose of the thread has little use, because dying and no free will... well, I don't see much difference. I would still want to live though).

If I could choose only Shirai Ryu or only Lin Kuei characters in MKX, it would be Shirai Ryu. Why? Look at the characters in Lin Kuei.
Sub-Zero (Bi-Han)
Sub-Zero (Kuai Liang)/Cyber Sub-Zero
Smoke
Sektor
Cyrax
Frost
The Grandmaster
Unit 5
Sareena
Shujinko
Hydro (Non-canon Character)
Oniro (Non-canon Character)
Yong Park (Non-canon Character)

Shirai Ryu:
Takeda
Scorpion
Fox
too many to name.
Now lets see all the playable characters from each clan.
Shirai Ryu:
Takeda
Scorpion
Lin Kuei:
Sub Zero
Shirai Ryu has more characters. Then look at Subby's special moves, he has barely any, while scorpion has 6.
Better variations.
Takeda: you can play with laser swords, laser whips, or Shirai Ryu stuff. Granted that Scorpion allows takeda to choose, Shirai Ryu has the better moveset in mkx AND has better weapons.

What about the original Takeda? The one who defected the Lin Kuei to found the Shirai Ryu in the first place?
