    The popular theory is that Netherrealm is busy trying to fix the problems iOS 8.3 has caused.

    Not sure what is going on. The biggest problem with Injustice was always a lack of communication and MKX seems to have the same problem. I'm not sure "going dark" is the best way to retain customers.

    Something really weird is going on, the game is no longer letting me progress. I beat boss Kung Jun, and then then next 5 towers, but the sixth one is still locked and my map isn't showing that those 5 towers have been won. They are all unlocked, but not destroyed. Has this happened to anyone else? Here's a pic if it helps- http://imgur.com/r77xyDW
    The 5 unlocked towers in that pic have all been cleared, at least twice a piece. Any ideas?

    Normal. I too had this happen.

    It shouldn't stop you from progressing to towers after them. I've beaten the game, and towers not being destroyed had no effect.

    You're saying you can't move on to other towers?

    Yeah, I can't move past the ones that are unlocked. I just played that last one again and I still can't progress. I've played it on both of my devices and still no dice.

    Weird. I have 5 towers beaten but not destroyed. However, I was able to move on past them without any problems.

    When you beat the very last tower, it doesn't destroy as well.

    It finally let me progress. I played through all of them again in order and it let me move on. The towers are still standing though.

    Do you use Sub-Zero a lot? He is my most used character and I found one of your statements/opinions rather different from my experiences. I have a level 50 Grandmaster, so that should speak about my usage.

    You state in this mini review, "Ice ball is often blocked which means it is difficult to pull off a freeze."

    Ice ball is the most realiable skill I've used of all the characters in this game. I've never seen it get often blocked, as you would say. Perhaps your timing of using that skill is horrible?

    Tips: 1.) Use Ice Ball after a three string combo is blocked, meaning que up the attack RIGHT after your third attack is blocked. In higher towers, the AI almost instantly attacks after your third attack is blocked. However, Ice Ball animations causes Sub-Zero to lean back and cause the AI to miss their first attack. This results in a freeze almost everytime.

    2.) Start your attacks with Ice Ball, when you see the AI attacking. This allows Sub-Zero to lean back in animations and often cause the AI to miss their first attack. This results in a freeze.

    It might be all about timing. I seem to have few problems getting Scorpion's kunai off. Grandmaster Sub-Zero is probably my most common usage of that character and I typically save up for Klone Toss as it is often an insta-kill.

    True, timing is a huge part of this game since you're basically tapping one button for attacking with a few special abilities thrown in for mixture.

    Klone toss is such a great ability, essentially having a X-Ray level damage ability for the cost of two energy bars.

    So I've been grinding and got some souls to spend. Should I spend them on gold packs or save up for specific characters?

    Since you've been grinding souls, I would suggest just buying gold packs. However, it really depends on what you're actually playing for. For example: to collect all the cards, or just beat the game, or you just like one character above the rest.

    If you're collecting them all, or just trying to beat all the towers I would suggest buying gold packs. If you are dead set on one character you really like then just buy that character.

    Having just one gold character significantly boosts your teams strength.

    Thanks for the advice. I decided to buy a gold pack and I got a gold Kotal Kahn :D Definally going to use him for a while. I had a load of coins as well so I bought Ermac and Reptile and decided to make an outworld team.

    Cool, I did the same with my first gold character, and I'm sure many others did as well — build around what they have.

    My first gold was exactly what I wanted, Grandmaster Sub-Zero, so I built a martial arts team =).

    Guys the season ended and I didn't get a single thing when i logged in -_-
    any of you have the same problem?

    (side note: I got a "Raiden" Support Kard from the Alliance Pack. Does this mean Raiden is already in the game's files and the dev just doesn't want to release the challenge from day one? Making us wait)
    (side note 2: I did not expect White Lotus to fall to 3rd Place and Dark Brotherhood to be the highest.)

    The season has ended and I too have not received my rewards, nor do I plan on getting them because the game is so bugged when it comes to rewards.

    As for Raiden, it was always known he would be released later after the initial release of the game. I have no clue when exactly, but maybe when they finally release Raiden Challenges.

    Swiping around in the Faction War menu, I just realized there was a previous season(?). Obviously I didn't get any reward from that one.
