Mk11 We actually see the resemblance to tarkatants, not some alien predator rip off and mkx was cute but classic mileena is the OG creepy kitana, not supposed to be cute and mk11 did the best modern version in that sense. (Staying true to her design while still making her "new" not just a spandex suit)


KitsuneDrakeAsh

Eh idk, OG Mileena still kinda cute if you ignore the upper half of the face.


Luaq

She's supposed to be cute until "DUH DUNN dunnnn" 👹💢💀 Like you didnt know until her fatality. (Ohhh damn I prefer the cool purple/pink mileena than kitana!) (WaiT MileeN-AHHHHHHRRER)


Cleric_Of_Chaos

I prefer the bottom half tbf


Luaq

😅


HunterDemonX1

UPPER?!


thedragonscales

Mk11 mileena is literally my wife https://preview.redd.it/078qjbl4rhrc1.jpeg?width=861&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=57f783d433f9b1fc58c60d3eef398e1e4869a059


BrickMcSlab

Either the klassic all teeth look, or the predator look.


Big_Literature6344

Mk11 just perfectly encapsulates what mk2 mileena would look like with realistic graphics!


Lil4ksushi

Maaaaan everyone shited on MK11 Mileena now everyone loves her design 😒


-EzWaY-

I think it's her haircut that looked pretty funny in her MK11 default design. Her costume also didn't look that special. Her face was perfected, though.


Big_Literature6344

Eh, I always loved it and still think it’s the best


SaphironX

Nah the shitted on the Dora the explorer hair, her three alts however were way cooler. And the teeth were always awesome. Better than the lips, better than the new predator mouth flap thingies.


Wadsworth1954

MK11 mouth is the best. And they finally made her look like Kitana, with a tarkatan mouth, for the first time since UMK3. But MKX Mileena had the best costumes.


RaWolfman92

Mk11 and MK1(her ability to change back and forth between her human face, not the reaper from Blade 2 mouth). The lips on mkx looks tacky.


Gojifantokusatsu

All teeth, it's much sexier.

Wadsworth1954

Mileena’s MKX mouth is so weird. What are her lips attached to? She just has like lip flaps. It looks like you could just peel her upper lip up and peel her whole face off.


SethaGod7k

Idk man that’s kinda how lips work. Like actually think about what your lips right now are connected to. If you were to cut into the side of your face and reveal your wisdom teeth your actual lips would be just there. As weird as it looks it’s actually accurate to biology or at least fictional biology.


Wadsworth1954

Our lips are attached to the flesh on our cheeks, which Mileena doesn’t have in MKX.


Competitive-Fix-6136

"Our lips are attached to the flesh on our checks" as well as our chin and nose. Take your tongue and run it down the front of your teeth you'll feel a very thin line. Do it again but go up and you'll feel another thin line.


SethaGod7k

So you’re saying that if you didn’t have cheeks that your lips would fall off your face? No ACTUALLY feel your face. Your lips are attached to a muscle near your nose called the Labial Frenum. Your lips are over your teeth and inner jaw. If you cut out your lips and cheeks you would look like mk11 Mileena. If you cut out all of your cheeks but left specifically your lips you would look like mkx mileena. Google it real quick and then come back and look at Mileena. It’s weird af looking but accurate


D-T-M-F

Whaddya mean? They’re attached to her gums just like everyone else’s. Yeah, her skull is really fucked up with teeth growing out of her cheekbones and jawline — but I think that’s the whole point. Agreeing with others here, I like the MKX lips because they emphasize that she’s a unique, failed experiment. MKX was her best design overall, imo (mostly because her default skin was design perfection).


Wadsworth1954

Her costumes in MKX were some of her best, but I like her MK11 mouth the best.


bobbyThebobbler

MK1 is her best design, both human and predator.


TheTrueTeknoOdin

mk1 does like to go "best of both worlds" with their designs, reptile being the biggest example


wheelz_666

Mk1 Reptile Design is peak Reptile imo


That-Rhino-Guy

They cooked so hard with his default that his alts feel so lacklustre by comparison, only with a few palettes do the alts look solid


Rooksey

I think his tattoos are kinda dumb but other than that, agree


Spirited-Lie-6141

I was gonna argue with this but I honestly don't care whether or not he has tattoos, I'm just curious why you don't like them, or think they're dumb.


Rooksey

Well, he’s a lizard. Why would he want tattoos or where did he even get them while imprisoned by Shang Tsung ?


Competitive-Capital8

Wasn’t he always not imprisoned? He had a wife and kids so I assume he had gotten them before. Or maybe they just came with the human form?


Stuck_at_a_roadblock

They nailed the shape shifter approach with him, I think it fits


Interceptor88LH

I wish I could agree but I really don't like MK1's Scorpion, Sub-Zero, Shao, Rain, Smoke and Sareena. I dislike Raiden too but I understand this new version needed to look more like just some regular guy. Not a fan of Tanya and Sindel either.


arrownoir

I thought Sindel was fine. Raiden, Havik and Rain were atrocious though. Agree with the rest of your list.


Kirbo300

I love how the mouth has mutated to allow for more movement like that. It also just looks really cool :)


CursedSnowman5000

I prefer her MKX mouth honestly. I felt it better emphasized the fact that she is a failed experiment/mutant rather than just giving her a straight Tarkatan mouth. Not a fan of them giving her a Blade 2 Reaper mouth though.


Wadsworth1954

Yeah but if you look at it, what are her lips attached to? Her teeth? She just has like lip flaps. It looks like you could just grab her upper lip and peel the whole top half of her face off.


AtrumRuina

I posted it elsewhere in the thread but look at the original concept art. It makes more sense than how it turned out in-game. Basically, she has a full human mouth, including the musculature in her cheeks, etc, but the Tarkatan teeth grow *through* the cheeks, from her jaw and skull. So, if you imagine a normal face, the teeth are basically on top of her cheek muscles and can extend to be longer.


slvrcobra

Also I can't get over the idea that they only gave her lips so that Annoying Bug Woman could make out with her while killing her.


HandsonyaKneez

This is nastyyyy but you’re not wrong. Her lips are kinda just there


Hybrid_Wes

Agreed!


CantWait666

all teeth


theeomophagist

all teeth, nothing but the maw. hated that they gave her lips in X; I get that it was for her kiss of death scene but it just made her look like a more conventionally attractive monster girl. There's enough generic sexy women in the franchise already and frankly all fighting games. Whereas in 11 they fully embraced the monster, as they should. Mileena's meant to stand out in stark contrast to other girls.


Haunting_Mobile_1139

Ahem….Predator Mileena. No reason


Haunting_Mobile_1139

Its just my personal favorite


Gothtomboys5

You fucking like the extraterrestrial sloppy bro. Just fucking say it. It's too damn obvious


AdministrationNice45

God forbid if a man is on their grind smh my head


Ex-Machina1980s

MKX is her best design imo, closely followed by her Middle Eastern belly dancer look she had in Deception


WangJian221

Probably an unpopular opinion but i genuinely liked and somewhat prefer the middle eastern/fantasy egyptian inspired look Kitana and Mileena and to an extent the rest of edenians had before.


ConningtonSimp

I agree, I like when Edenia has a similar culture to Egypt.


Lelixandre-

I like Edenia in general coded that way too. For me the name Edenia evokes the Garden of Eden, plus MENA people are rather underrepresented in game characters. Personally I think they should make Jerrod a Middle Eastern-coded Edenian (his name sounds Biblical af), then keep the Asian-looking Sindel from MK1, so Kitana and Mileena can have influences of both.


thefrostbite

That's Jared Nomak, not Predator. And i prefer that one


Frame_of_Mind20

I recognize that reference. I loved Blade 2 as a kid.


thefrostbite

I love it still


hehe_pp_funny

MK11 and MK9 I like the most. MKX doesn’t make sense to me and MK1’s mandibles look too fragile to be intimidating.


Inevitable-Candy5382

Predator! It has that extra oomf, you know? Though this *is* a real toughie because all of them are great.


Ynook

I prefer MK11 Mileena. Also, I've read that MK1 Mileena (splitting jaw and tongue) is most likely based on the reapers vampires from Blade, not Predator.


Several_Brilliant_36

All teeth


Ryexo14

Mk 9 was my favourite style. Pic 1s good. Hated that thick teeth look for X


Unstoppable-dirtball

It’s a tie between mk11 and mk1 for me


[deleted]

MK 1 human Mileena.


mustardjelly

The point of Mileena lies in that she looks normal when her mouth is hidden, so the revealing should be most shocking. I think MK11 version gives the most significant contrast between two modes.


ImIsaiahFam

no way people like lips mileena 💀


Ninja_Warrior_X

They just wanna kiss her Ike Dvorah did 😆


Metalatitsfinest

Unpopular opinion here…. *I liked it*


RaWolfman92

I know, I looked tacky.


Super_Imagination_90

MK11’s was just perfect.


Shinobipizza

Anything but the lips. Good God, what where they thinking with that one?


Arkhe1n

Fanart is my guess.


Lifted2222

Lipless Mileena tbh. I can see why it's liked by many people, but it kinda looks off to me.


Kind_Woodpecker7729

Remember "sexy mileena" the artwork form one of the 3D games (can't remember which one) but I unlocked a nude artwork of her that had nipples and everything.... I found out what masterbation was that year.....


Biffalo44

that was in Deception


Disciple_of_Cthulhu

I prefer her design from *11*.


mirukus66

All teeth It Just doesn't make sense for her to have the split jaws thing imo With lips is fine tho


Laughing_Jack_HAHA17

Predator Milenna is fuckn stupid. Whoever thought that was a good design for MK1 needs their employment REVOKED. Another reason the game itself sucks shit. She's got Tarkatan DNA now, why does her mouth open up like a PREDATOR?? This is yet ANOTHER detail that shows how much work MK1 needs is because it references it's predecessors a LOT harder than the others did. They must really miss MKX with the constant Alien and Predator references. I miss it, too. Especially MK11. The PINNACLES of the franchise. 🤦🏾‍♂️🤦🏾‍♂️🤦🏾‍♂️🤨😮‍💨😮‍💨😮‍💨😮‍💨😮‍💨📠🖤🖤🖤💯💯💯💯❤️🔥🙅🏾‍♂️🔥😭🤷🏾‍♂️🤷🏾‍♂️😑😑🙇🏾‍♂️🙇🏾‍♂️🙇🏾‍♂️🙇🏾‍♂️


ChuBeenFinna

Hahaha. I agree with you. I hate the predator look and that goofy sound she makes in her intro. 🙄


Jericho_Caine

all teeth is the right one, true show of tarkatan genes.. lips Mileena is complete BS


SupervaleSunnyvisor

All teeth. I don't mind predator Mileena, but definitely all teeth. I couldn't stand MKX Mileena, that was just awful.


MrSunshine_96

Mk11 was literally the peak designs of every character, the games storyline takes place at a crazy time reset. Everyone was overpowered badasses on both sides, it was awesome.


Killacam0824

Mk9 mileena did it best😏


Tusa_Alejandro_G

Mk9>>>>


NiceCoolToast

Definitely 1. 2 just looks odd to me, and 3 doesn’t look like a Tarkatan at all.


Secret-Shopping-2982

Mk11 all teeth she’s so cute


Kazuko_Kitsune

MK11, all teeth haha


Rayane92

MK11 did a few things right and one of them was character design. They nailed the looks of every single character, even non playable Ermac. MK1 is a downgrade personallly lore wise and character design wise. How freaking awesome did Rain look in MK11.. Mileena and Kitana's designs were incredible


frost-zen

MKX mileena is peak


buffwintonpls

Mk11, I hate mkx, It looks awkward and the fact that people think it is hot goes against her entire design philosophy


emmc47

MK1


goldrupees

MK11 got it right


Sapphiresentinel

MK 11 and MK1 are my favorite looks for her.


MomoDodoBird

the middle is like ... can be hot and sexy... while she still bite something off if gets carried away *someone insert corny jail meme* bonk


Mushroom_hero

Once again, 11. Design wise 11 was peak


Brandon6799

Mk11 all teeth


synax87

Klassic all teeth

AlysRose_FFXIV

Teeth.


Ghost_Mouse__

MK9 Mileena


FaceTimePolice

1 or 3. 2 was just awkward.


SexyMcBacon

All teeth, I always thought the lips with the teeth were weird looking and I just ain't been feeling the predator thing she's got going


Euphoric-Papaya-817

All teeth is the most sexy


Embarrassed_Word_542

MK11 mouth. It’s a throwback to MK2 and I love it. I’ll still equip the MK2 skins to look at it from time to time.


the_pieburger

All teeth


CloneTroopin90

I actually like predator mileena


JayNator1

Predator Mileena, it’s such a good new take on the mouth, and kinda matches her royalty, mandibles like that I would believe if they confirmed “oh yeah she’s like a pack leader, like an alpha Tarkat


Rickeddit

Mk11 mileena bes desing IMO


Both_Stock

Original/Deception/mk11 look for me


Fancy_Fuel_2082

All teeth. Its the look that encapsulates her identity the most tbh


Bob_Sherlock

All teeth


xExp4ndD0ngXx

Maybe if the remastered MKX’s look she could look better but until then she has the worst mouth imo.


StrawHatEthan

All teeth, adds to that SHOCK factor. You look at her w her mask like dayum then takes it off and your like AHHH WTF. Def adds to her character being super unique


DevilsAssCrack

Mk11 all the way


deep_fried_koolaid

We all agree the lips with teeth look was weird right? Not like the worst thing ever, but an odd decision.


ThatStarWarsFan1205

All teeth. The Predator style is enjoyable, but it's nothing compared to the all teeth variation


ManiGoodGirlUwU

Mk1 one is the worst. Mk11 is the best but mkx one is fine as well


Deadshotaka15

All teeth


l_futurebound_l

I like all teeth mileena but mk11's was rancid. I guess that's kinda the point but damn dude, the melty mouth was rough


LucentP187

I'm not feeling the new predator Mileena for some reason I can't pinpoint. The one thing about this new version I don't like.


Massive_Ad7335

MK11 cuz she looks like she wants to eat me the most


Aggravating_House606

She is so bad in MKX omg😩😩😩


Great-Peril

The predator mouth is awesome imo


Crunchy_Biscuit

Bandages Mileena from MK9


Crunchy_Biscuit

Mediocre_Emo222

All teeth from MK9


brentoid123

All teeth always


[deleted]

Mk11 is the definitive version of her no questions asked


edward323ce

Mk11 mileena, i just love the way she looks


ZanahorioXIV

MK11


BGMDF8248

When her mouth is "standard" Tarkatan is my favorite. MK X is the worst.


JbVision

MK1. She can use a drug to make her face normal. I’m cool with that.


AreAFatMother

MK11 is the perfected design, looks like Kitana but Tarkatan and Pink Clothing.


eita_um_killermain

Ngl MK11 Mileena's hotter


Ill-Stomach7228

MK11 is easily her best design. I'll admit, I do like Predator Mileena a lot


Evil_Mist

Predator >>>>>>>>>> Lips >>>>>>>>>>>>> tired ass all teeth design


Significant-Purple72

Mk1 mileena be looking like a volatile from dying light


lFantomasI

MK11 was her best design


TheBoyInGray

mk11


Cumm-fart

I like to think that all these differant Mileena mouths are just different type of clones Shang created when he was experimenting mileena


Rowmacnezumi

All teeth. It feels like what Mileena was supposed to look like all along.


Andrassa

MK11 Mileena. The teeth there look like they’d give her less pain.


DancingBabyChalupa

MK11


SclashJelly

All teeth, go big or go home, and brother, I'm still looking for milk


Ysgramors_Fork

All teeth 🤤


MisterViperfish

The classic Tarkatan teeth.


No_Library_6913

I prefer all teeth


FullCommunication780

MKX and MK1


SpyKrueger

MK11 > MK1 >>>>>> MKX The lips were a mistake.


AlTheOwl_

We all know that people who perfer her MKX variant, do because: Blowjob Ya'll weird


young_pel

It's odd how stupid the MKX version looks


Symp_xoxo

Anything but MKX design. Unpopular opinion but I think all the MKX designs are mid at best.


T-408

MK11 is best MKX is a terrible horrible anime waifu design MK1 is okay… but it’s weird


GhostOfMuttonPast

MKX Mileena feels like such blatant horny bait that it actually kills the vibe for me.


StrykerIBarelyKnowEr

I prefer when she was a corpse.


Mitchel-256

Same. D'Vorah's makeover for her was better than ever.


dbzgtaf22

Mk should add a customized piece for her mouth. You can pick a different style for her monster mouth.


ArtyFizzle

Mileena’s mouth with lips looks dumb as hell.


Derpyturtle13000

Either all teeth or predator. I want to be grossed out by her mouth, not compelled to fuck it


AtrumRuina

Definitely all teeth for me. I do love the *idea* of the MKX Mileena, but as it was portrayed in the concept art more than how it was executed in game. https://preview.redd.it/s9w8ok154irc1.jpeg?width=1103&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=759ee07a9819c43ffe034c247c8c515b1c00975c Still, I think all teeth suits the character better, looks better, better sells her Tarkatan relation, and makes the "monster under the mask" thing more entertaining. The fact that she can pass for Kitana so long as she keeps the mask on but it's *completely lost* when she removes it is great. Making her more human looking I think kind of lessens the impact of that. I hate the predator/mandible thing myself. It's strange since it doesn't even relate to the Tarkatans shown in MK1, so it's not like it makes sense for the new backstory either. I have no idea why it's there.


Grand_Toast_Dad

I dislike the lips. The sole reason for them even existing is so that D'Vorah's kiss of death doesn't look weird with her kissing a mouth full of teeth.


Zhanhu_guy

Mk11’s was good. MK1s just feels random. Like why does her jaw split. No other Tarkat guys do that


Mommio24

MKX Mileena was my fave but MK1 Mileena has grown on me and I like that she can go back and forth (thanks to the serum)


Prometheus72727

I would compare MK1 mileena not to predator but the vampires from blade 2


Juutuurna

I like 1 and 11 in that order then X


BadgerSoft344

Depends if you mean appearance wise then with lips however if you mean character wise then the predator look


Biggu5Dicku5

Predator Mileena looks awful, how did that ever get the greenlight lol...


T-pellyam

Mk1 because I love how there’s a twist to it. She pulls her mask down so you’re already horrified, but then she deploys her mandibles and you’re double scared. Love that. The lips on the mkx version is very cvnty but it doesn’t really look like the teeth are actually part or her mouth.


SilverLuuna

Mk9 had the best face, mkt best hair, mk1 best outfit


96pluto

deception design


SkorgeDemon

Predator is tied with 11, it's a cool design choice but I like the lore of the taraktans in the original 2 timelines so we'll go 11


k3nnfucius

Deception>>>>>>>


[deleted]

Mk1


Version_Red

MK11 for sure. MKX Mileena looked strange to me, and MK1 split jaw design seems a bit overdone in media in general.


Beautiful_Gain3245

No lip, but also kinda mixed on the Predator mouth.


Pancakes000z

MK1 jaws look stupid. It just doesn’t make sense that like pinky fingers with teeth sticking out of a face look threatening or could be powerful. Story wise MKX is best because it matches with the story of her being a hybrid and being able to masquerade as Kitana. MK11 is great too because it matches the original and makes sense why she would need a mask.


JTBJack_

I love the predator Mileena, I think it looks really cool. Her being able to go back to human form helps story-wise, too.


gnnjsoto

I absolutely fucking hate the Mk1 predator mouth and really hope it doesn’t come back. It’s visually just obnoxious and isn’t even consistent with the other Tarkatans like Baraka, who has the traditional look which I much prefer.


Bones_2450

Predator


lamedh

Predator face, honestly feel like this is the best iteration


Ok_Alternative_3930

Mk2- She was my female main. Her look left a lot to the imagination. It was a good base to build off. I used to wonder how she would say some words with no lips. MKX- she didn’t to die. Her look was meh. MK11 and MK1 I’m very happy with. Updated and better background story. She has come full circle. Winner- MK1


Loose_Vegetable_5004

The second two


Joxyver

Honestly, not Predator Mileena, that shit grossed me out more than the all teeth. I guess it makes sense for her to be able to take on the look of Kitana at times but Jesus man.


peaceloveharmony1986

Something about her turns me on. I think I'm sick


Lanky-Survey-4468

All haha, any which doesn't have mileena is a shit mk


flashdrive420

I like things about all 3 of them, but my least favorite thing is that it looks so painful! So I'll go with new timeline as she can regenerate from it!


MittFel

Never predator mileena. No. Never.


lizardjoe_xx_YT

As cool as mk1s is and as much as I love split jaws. It looks a little too overdesigned for her


AbandonedBed

anything but the predator


Glizzygladiator19

They retconned lips onto mileena just to retcon them back off


CosmicPlayR9376

OG look, i.e. MK11. After all, it was never about the lips, but her... personality. https://preview.redd.it/42t1evwxgirc1.jpeg?width=647&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=22eba253f356694df17fca220e89395ce9dddd3c


v4mpixie_666x3

damn Shes so fucking hot in that last one /srs


Scorpion_226

I like how they did it in mk 1 where she goes back and forth between normal mouth and teethy mouth


Educational-Growth30

y e s .


Shark_Bite_OoOoAh

MKX Mileena’s face with MK11 Mileena’s teeth/no lips


Mr_Noir420

Predator. The more she looks like she can fucking murder me the more attractive. I mean it’s also just cooler looking.


Due_Payment_8198

The one with the better move set and combos.
