MK Vs Nintendo: Johnny Cage

Bio
There is no greater martial arts movie star than Johnny Cage. Films such as "Dragon Fist", "Time Smashers" and "Citizen Cage" have made him one of the most highly paid actors in Hollywood. But there is more to Johnny than even he knows. He is a descendant of an ancient Mediterranean cult who bred warriors for the gods -- warriors who possessed power beyond that of mortals. This legacy has made Johnny Cage a star. More important, it will aid him in the battle to come.

Special Moves

 * Green Shadow Kick: Cage slides across the floor with one foot at a steady speed, followed by a green-colored afterimage and connects with a kick to the torso of his opponent with the other one.
 * In MKO the enhanced version is called Eclipse Kick, just like in MKvsDCU, but keeps its green trail. It is executed faster, covers the whole screen, has armor and increased damage.
 * Plasmic Bolt: Cage throws a green orb of energy at the enemy. In MKII and onwards, the bolt is curved upwards.
 * The enhanced versions in MKII are Double Low ball and Double High ball. In MKII:TA, they are Double Low Forceball and Double High Forceball. In all of these, Johnny fires a second ball in a straight direction.
 * Split Punch: One of Cage's most memorable moves where he does a split and punches the opponent in the groin. This previously only worked on male fighters -- against women, instead of punching, he would simply do a split and stand back up. Available in Mortal Kombat: Shaolin Monks and Mortal Kombat II, it can be performed on both male fighters and female fighters.
 * The enhanced version is called Nutcracker both in MK:A and MKII:O. In MKII:TA it turns Cage's fist green with energy, increasing its damage. In MKII it's armored and makes Johnny follow up with an uppercut, leaving his foe vulnerable to a juggle.

Fatalities

 * Heads Up: Johnny Cage uppercuts his opponent’s head off, then he finishes by ripping off their torso and throwing it to the ground as the head bounces back up. He then catches the head and holds it up.
