Takeda is a new character in the Mortal Kombat series (seen above in a still from the game’s story trailer), and will surely be a deadly fighter, as he was trained by none other than series regular Scorpion. And if you’ve played any of the Mortal Kombat games, then you know Scorpion is fond of using ropes and spears to punish his enemies. And inspired by his master, his trainee Takeda is adept at using whips to pummel his enemies to submission.

Takashi Takeda has 3 variations: Shirai Ryu, Lasher and Ronin. In the first variation, Takeda shows what he can do with a whip (throw enemies around the screen that is) and confuse his opponent with a fast teleport move. The second is good for strategists (or those who want to keep his or her opponent at a distance) as Takeda gets to use ranged area attacks. The Ronin variation is for those who like combat up close and personal, as Takeda gets to use dual swords, and a projectile, similar to veteran Liu Kang’s fireball.
