Whatever replaces vortex needs to have up to 6 (or more) inversions along with a batwing finale as a tribute to the former ride. A new gen vekoma thrill coaster with either a lift or a launch would be perfect. I could also see them go for either a Gerstlauer infinity or a Mack stryker as well.
The main things Kings Island needs are inversions and launches. The best choices would be either a Mack Extreme Spinner or a multi-launch such as a Mack Stryker or Intamin Blitz. I don’t think they will get a Wing, Dive, Tilt or anything else Cedar Point has gotten recently. I know a 300ft Dive was on the survey but we already have a great 300ft drop. Take that exclusive feature away from Orion and what unique element does it have to offer? I don’t think it would be a good idea to overshadow the last big coaster.
Back in April a few Cedar Fair parks got a survey sent out about potential rides. Cedar Points included a Tilt Coaster that we now know is Sirens Curse. KI had options of a 4500 ft Family coaster ( I don't think it would be this, as they just recently put in a smaller coaster for the Snoopy area), An indoor Dark Coaster (could be a possibility that could be built in that area), and my favorite, which could also def be a possibility is a giga dive coaster.

Those are all incredible predictions! I could see any of them being possible as well 👍🏼

I agree that inversions and launches are probably what they need with this addition

@@EsOne4200 Either ride could be amazing additions for Kings Island!
