Ravenous
Mileena’s Ravenous variation makes proper use of those beautiful teeth of hers. This imbues Mileena with some pounce attacks in order to keep opponents pinned down. Perfect for players wanting to utilize Mileena’s speed while also suppressing the opposition’s attacks.

Piercing
This Mileena variation capitalizes on her speed in order to deliver quick, sharp attacks using her signature sai. The Piercing variation is perfect for those who like to watch other combatants bleed. Also, for those who don’t mind mixing it close range, this is perfect.

Ethereal
Mileena’s arguably most dangerous transition is Ethereal. She is already known as one of Mortal Kombat X‘s faster, more deadly fighters, but giving her the ability to teleport adds to the threat. Ethereal is perfect for players who like to bait opponents into opening up for attacks, and it’s pretty cool to look at as well.

X-Ray (L2+R2 with full meter)
Mileena has the benefit of a really quick X-Ray, making it pretty difficult to dodge. It’s triggered by a portal into the ground, followed by a kick from above. It’s pretty easy to catch opponents off-guard with this one, making it one of the best X-Ray attacks in the game. The only thing is that you should be careful with is triggering it too close to opponents. It’s best to use Mileena’s X-Ray attack from mid-range or greater.
