It's worth noting that an Alien burst out of Baraka's chest in the trailer, and Alien's shape is so distinct that NRS probably didn't want to spoil it. A bunch of people complained about not getting Baraka, so maybe NRS learned their lesson about red herring silhouettes.
Who is going to be upset if Raiden isn't actually a character?

Why not? I don't want Azrael, but that silhouette bears a striking resemblance to him. The hood, shoulder pads, and gauntlets match.
-1 mk character is fine, 2 is pushing it
They also seem to pull Batman characters mostly from the Arkham series.
Hope the 'cloaked' female is Chesire.
I didn't play MKX, but if I did I would have liked to play as Baraka I can see why someone would be pissed if that silhouette didn't turn out to be who it actually belonged to (Alien).
I think there will be 2 seasons
My final final predictions
Because Rorschach is such a big name semi-guest character, I think NRS slightly modified his silhouette to make him less distinguishable.
Ive spent far too long combing through the DC roster, and I honestly dont think there are any better fits for those silhouettes.
Not every character inclusion is a popular fan request (Batgirl, Zod, Bo' Rai Cho, Leatherface, et cetera). If Azrael ends up in the game then maybe someone at NRS just really likes him. He also has a visual design that will probably appeal to many NRS fans.
Combs on double duty. Definitely needs to be Question, just for the interactions between him and the League.

My final final predictions...
Different hats, scarves, trenchcoats, pants, and so on, including some padded/reinforced clothing. Maybe even something like this.
I can't quite articulate the movements, but I can fairly easily envision an NRS-style Atom move set in my head, making heavy use of the grow/shrink afterimage effect. He could have a teleport punch where he quickly shrinks down to the point of invisibility and reemerges behind the opponent at full size, delivering an uppercut. He could also have a quick shrink projectile evasion move. I imagine a Raging Demon style throw where he shrinks down and hits the opponent in various pressure points, with the opponent reacting to each hit as though they're being blindsided by an invisible force. He could even leap up off screen and come crashing down as a giant foot.
Enchantress is the main villain of a major movie and Atom is a principal character in a live action TV show, so I wouldn't find either of them too surprising as actual character choices. Azrael is a bit more obscure than those two, but even he featured prominently in a Gotham TV storyline and in the Arkham games.
