People complaining about the moveset of Floyd but they forget all secret characters started being just a recolor from an existent character and his moves, then next game got his own moves. I hope this is the first steps to make the real Floyd in the next MK game🙌🏼
True, but Floyd name sound lame af imo. Yea2 I know it was because of the Pink Floyd band, but man if they really want to create an actual pink ninja character in the future, they better came up with another name.
@ well, the name doesn't work at all, ir sounds really goofy imo, but in the other side we have Purple Rain. At least Rains sounds really good and the moveset is very well suited for the character. Probably in the nect game they work on the name, probably how it's writed or something. Floyd started being Phill-Lloyd x.x
No, Pink Floyd isn't our "New-Era version of Chameleon". He's simply pulling a page from Reptile's first appearance, and utilizing a combination of attacks from the ninjas that are already available at the time of his debut. At the time of the first Mortal Kombat's release, only Scorpion, and Sub-Zero were available. That's why Reptile only had access to THEIR movesets prior to his first playable appearance in the following installment. Pink Floyd is a reference to this. And a f****** good one considering this title is also technically "Mortal Kombat 1". If I were to posit, Pink Floyd will likely make his first fully-playable appearance in Mortal Kombat 2, just as Reptile had. And bring with him his own unique moveset, rather than merely recycling the moveset of others.
@@the_realzombi Nah, Chameleon and Khameleon were designed for that to be their canon thing. When they appear they will always borrow moves from the other characters, playable or not. Hidden fight ninjas like Reptile, Smoke, Noob, and Jade all started as copies or combinations of existing characters, but were canonized with their own powers later. When Floyd becomes playable, he will definitely have his own Light-based moveset. But whenever Chameleon is playable he will continue to use everyone else's moves. If anyone actually stole Chameleon's schtick, it was MK11 Shang Tsung.
@thahirshibu5042 He's a secret fight character, so likely not, not counting mods. However, if we go off secret characters track record, this means he should be playable with his own unique moveset in MK2
If he ends up being a full character, he better have some light bending powers or a weapon that acts like a prism just as a reference to The Dark Side of The Moon
@ghost-1nklegendary225 I'm aware but it's still much better. I'm also aware his skin is the MK11 klassic male ninjas in pink, plus his normals and kombos strings are just MK11 Shang moveset.
When Floyd eventually becomes a complete and playable character in a future title, I really would like to see his moveset revolve around crystals and light-based powers. His rainbow-crystal wall is a great place to start though.
The Floyd high level gameplay at the end should be what mk1 should have been...no heavy reliance on kameos, just the character doing swaggy combos then calling in the kameo occasionally for some sort of enders
Guys, actually, no stop hating, because floyd is not just Chameleon, he uses crystal and light abilities, unlike Chameleon. So they might just use crystals and light for his whole moveset in the future.
@ correct but Chameleon does the same, except for the ninjas. Not goin lie it is dope , I would hope they bring back Chameleon and Tremor as playable characters in KP3
no stop hating, because floyd is not just Chameleon, he uses crystal and light abilities, unlike Chameleon. So they might just use crystals and light for his whole moveset in the future.
Netherealm studios somehow finds it impossible to put chameleon in the game yet the Shang tsung morph in mk11 exists and this pink ninja floyd took his job.(this could also mean that floydd the only reason he has it it’s because the arcade ninjas had it like mk2 noob having scorpion and sub zero move set so floyd just has every ninja powers)
God no… the spam this prick has? no one will want to fight him. Faster ice balls than sub zero, many run away and zoning mechanics, and loads of other moves that don’t telegraph a thing that can knock your ass down for easy combos? Forget it
1. let him reprise his secret boss role in the next game to bump up the mystery factor, then let him be playable the game after 2. give him fatalities in the next game so he can flex on streamers even more (bonus points if his animality isn't just a firefly)
there being a pink ninja reminds me of a secret character in Dance Central of all places. In the original Dance Central, entering the konami code unlocks a pink ninja player character named "Ttiw Tolrep", who in later games was a free DLC character renamed to Shinju Like Noob Saibot, his name is an inversion of the dev team leads' surnames.
This reminds me of a black ninja in a white suit named Inferno I created on one those MK’s from the PS2/XBOX era he could flame throw out of his hand and had some Sub-Zero moves as well
I think Floyd could be a strict electric ninja and make Rain more focused on water specifically but if not maybe he could just use Plants or something. Or maybe he uses Space
@@JD-cg8it I love the game but they fasho dropped the ball way too many times !! They disappointed a lot with this game but I do like playing ngl lol. Wish I didn’t pay 120 tho tf was I thinking🤦🏾♂️💀💀
Yup. I kinda like this secret character concept. It's like the older games where previous secret characters like reptile, jade, and noob use the moves of others until they got their own. But like come on, could've added at least one combo or special that is unique to him considering some of the hype. This is just pink chameleon. Even an idle stance at least💀
We got "Lloyd"! from Ninjago "The Green Ninja" , "Master of Elements"! And now we got "Floyd"! from MK1 "The Pink Ninja" , "(You give him a Nickname)"!
In the next MK game, I want to see Floyd having gummy powers in the guise of mushrooms/fungus…like he can do Dhalsim moves: as well as, able to be so sticky that once you get hit by his projectile, you become very slow in whatever position you’re in, disregarding even gravity (for a free hit like the ice ball or flying kunai). Also, they should either rename him or just change the spelling to like Phloyd, Phloid, Fhloid etc
@@gonzalotorres5282 More like a fungus one...imagine a Spider-Man version of MK in terms of fighting ability...and powers of fungus resembling the hero's webs. Zoners are really boring to play with I agree.
@@patrickborro2000 I've been typing his lore. A rogue Ninja who has cut ties with both Sub and Scorp bros. since they dismissed him by someone else (Hanzo, Sektor).

This is how I know MK can go legacy. Shang Tsung would’ve been great with these moves still as well as some of his now added moves. I liked his MK11 play style. Floyd makes it better here.
ik he is a joke character but they seemed to have put a lot more effort into him than the crappy story NPCs they have done in the past. Or the mix of powers NPCs in MK1.

I wonder who voiced Floyd? But also, I have a feeling that for the next MK installment Floyd might actually become playable considering that in the old days of MK, whenever there was a secret character in one game, they would later appear in the next one.

Very well said I think this is exactly what there doing. Pretty cool Easter egg.
I hope if this is true, he uses light as his attacks. Like that Pillar of Light that he uses. That would be sick.
you just said everything chameleon does. there’s no doubt that this is a rebranded version of chameleon

I got a Floyd notification when I was playing Klassic Towers with Conan, but never knew what that meant nor got his fight incounter
Likewise when I was doing Conan's 3rd weekly preview tower. I got Floyd with a guitar rift.
@@kwitseoI got just a guitar rift when playing as conan but no name confirmation
The notification might mean that you can do something in that match to unlock the fight. Like when the shadows appeared on the Pit in og MK1.
Him doing a faster ice ball than sub in ridiculous
very ridiculous
I was looking for this comment LOL
Is it possible to unlock him??
@thahirshibu5042 He's a secret fight character, so likely not, not counting mods. However, if we go off secret characters track record, this means he should be playable with his own unique moveset in MK2

I knew it looked familiar😅
With the reptile idle
Yo that’s crazy
@@JamesSmith-zo4ij lol
@Miguelnoriega2
It feels like a pink Chameleon.
His ice ball is leagues better than Subs smh.

"So how much MK11's Shang Tsung moves do you want for Floyd?"
Ed Boon: "YES!"
Shang Tsung normals, special moves from every ninja, unique rainbow wall attack...
perfection
And he got Bi-Han’s voices.
I just love the fact he has so many specials, and crazy how 11 and 1 moves can be in one character
This is shang shung mk11 fighting style with all the ninjas variations frfr .still nice in its own lil way
i hope that the wall is part of his moveset in the future
wait... say that again
Floyd broke the internet to day boyz who knew a pink ninja could be so cool mk1 making history once again
The Floyd high level gameplay at the end should be what mk1 should have been...no heavy reliance on kameos, just the character doing swaggy combos then calling in the kameo occasionally for some sort of enders
Floyd have Shang Tsung combos from MK11, the gameplan isn't the same and it's notable
@santiagobustos8899 I know it's a re skin of shang

The way pink floyd plays is how every fighter should
Guys, actually, no stop hating, because floyd is not just Chameleon, he uses crystal and light abilities, unlike Chameleon. So they might just use crystals and light for his whole moveset in the future.
So Floyd is basically “Chameleon”
Seems more like shujinko to me. That's what his power is, taking powers from others, basically absorption.
@ correct but Chameleon does the same, except for the ninjas. Not goin lie it is dope , I would hope they bring back Chameleon and Tremor as playable characters in KP3

for this game, but it doesn't mean it'll be that for future games. All the OG secret characters used stolen moves until they made the real roster.
Definitely a reference to Pink Floyd. Love it.

2:45 IS THE WALL 🤣🤣🤣
Another brick in the wall
Mk is full of secrets and this is no exception
Its so refreshing seeing him doing his own full combos wothout heavy relaince on kameo to extend his combos
He's probably a test run on how the cast are going to play in mk2. Also his animations look fluid to me.
that would be sicccck
@smithy4894 it really would be
He has Shang Sung’s attack animations from MK11.
Netherealm studios somehow finds it impossible to put chameleon in the game yet the Shang tsung morph in mk11 exists and this pink ninja floyd took his job.(this could also mean that floydd the only reason he has it it’s because the arcade ninjas had it like mk2 noob having scorpion and sub zero move set so floyd just has every ninja powers)
Floyd could be chameleon but from Liu Kang timeline
No...this is a callback to MK1. The very first. Where Reptile was a secret fighter and had the movesets of both Scorpion and Sub Zero.
So they give this guy the ice ball subzero mains been asking for smh just great
If Floyd becomes playable in the next MK, I wonder his gimmick/theme will be to make him stand out from the other ninjas.
🏳️⚧️
Controls plants?
Light? A flashbang attack to stun opponents for combo setups and tons of crystal constructs.
@@norisa4850 that dude from Bleach that turns his sword to cherry blossom petals

I'm glad that they decided to make a secret character again

2. give him fatalities in the next game so he can flex on streamers even more (bonus points if his animality isn't just a firefly)
He got more swagg than most of the main roster characters
We go back to the time when it was amazing to fight secret characters,
They had an opportunity to make him a Mokujin type character. Like Charade from Soul Calibur but just a random Ninja each round.
Imaging being a grandmaster and it takes you one business day to do a iceball and here comes the new guy mastering it less that 3 seconds
Ray Koshorek to Floyd: "The eternal light is on this one."

This is Shang from MK11 moveset!!!! Nice. My fave character.
This reminds me of a black ninja in a white suit named Inferno I created on one those MK’s from the PS2/XBOX era he could flame throw out of his hand and had some Sub-Zero moves as well
Now i want to see his fatalities and Fatal blow
He'll get better as the years go by.
Why we couldn’t get these moves for the actual characters the world will never know
Shujinko
Mk1 reptile stance, Mk11 shang tsung combo strings, pretty coooool
You know you're in trouble when you're up against a guy wearing that much pink.
damn, floyd looks like a pain to fight in the hands of a skilled player.
his powers should be flamboyant ala illusions or light effect.
That way it would suite his cool pink hue esthetics.
I can imagine to hear dialogues from Floyd 🥷🏻🩷 if he was put in as a playable character in klassic towers even to see his ending story
Close enough,welcome back Chameleon
Incredible combos 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

Floyd "The Rosing Light Ninja"
*Floyd* is a *Pink* ninja, huh? Reaaaal subtle there, fellas... 😏
First time seeing this guy. For a second I thought he got brief tutelage from almost every kombatant in the roster.
That color scheme has me in love 😍🩷
I can’t be the only person that immediately realized the MK11 Shang Tsung strings 😂😂
Esta buenisimo, me encanto!!
Floyd (pink ninja) is a reference to Pink Floyd music band...
YESSSSS LETS GOOOOO
I hope he becomes a fully playable character soon or in the next game
The background is beautiful
Also he got Rain Move set from MK 11. I love it!
I want to be able to play him for sure!!!!!
I love it he looks good and all my original og ninjas
I think this character is an example of what we could have had for some of the characters 😂
I wonder if Floyd will replace Chameleon or he will eventually be a new character in another mk with a completely new moveset
That damage is criminal bro, all that for barely 300 is insane
Awesome
Here's the bubble gum colored ninja we've all been waiting for!
Pink Floyd = Chameleon & Shujinko 👀 (Shujinko can absorb the abilities of any fighter) honestly would be a cool reskin for the character.

Based on that rainbow wall he created, his powers seem to be crystals and light based.
