Used to like Scorpion more before they made him a sellout/really started whoring him out... It's one thing for him to be the posterboy of the series now, but another to just make it a running gag for him to beat Sub-Zero or whoever in trailers nowadays (like the first trailer for this game), etc. I dunno; the marketing with him and whatnot, along with having always been the most overused online, etc. just makes you sick of him or his wanking pretty easily now. His experience with training and watching over Takeda introduced a new aspect of his character at least, but still..
Anyway, yeah. Him doing what he did to Havik is no surprise; was only a matter of time, but kinda liked the setup for how it happened admittedly, and at least Havik got to wreck him once beforehand.
Oh yeah, thought it seemed a bit odd for Sheeva to be seen fighting better there than Kintaro. Kintaro's pretty much a total scrublord now. At least Goro has better treatment in comparison after MK9...
Oh yeah... That sure put a dent in his "godlihood".
Yep... And well, been hearing from some that they'll move onto a Hotaru and "order" arc next; this arc being basically the Havik and "chaos" arc.
Kinda like how they'll be continually focusing on material introduced in MK Deception if that's the case. Maybe even go over Onaga at some point (since Shujinko was already shown some issues prior), though I'd like to think they'd still save him for a sequel game.
There were also a couple things Boon posted on twitter recently that could be hints toward Sareena and Bi-Han, though could be just him trolling fans as usual.
They should cut back to Sub-Zero owning the Cyber Lin Kuei (like show how he kills Sektor), or show what happens to Shujinko now that he's been released from the blood curse like everyone else, or something.
Plenty areas for them to still explore at least, regardless of the Hanzo wanking..
So im still playin Tremor and tryin to get into aftershock.
He is actully pretty good.You just need to use earth shake when you are far.
Like do a combo that knocks enemy away then do earth shake quickly get in and do another combo and it will 100% connect.
All combos get a 7% extra damage with the special.
For example do f,square,tr,square for knockback then earth shake get in square,tr,d,x uppercut for 26% easy combo instead of 19% after the uppercut you can repeat starting with earth shake then sq,tr,d,x...etc
Thats an easy 63% damage if done twice.
Easy combos with Aftershock.(connects if you do as mentioned by getting in after earth shake from a distance.)
B,sq,tr,sq 21%
Tr,sq,tr 21%
Sq,tr,d,x,uppercut 26%
B,x,tr,d,d,b,tr,d for bounce then uppercut for 31%
These probably wont work in corner since the time required for earth shake to connect.
Also another cool thing is that sq,tr,d,x uppercut keeps enemy in the corner instead of knocking him over,
Yeah, I'm not sure how Terminator in MK would really work if it happened or does happen somewhere in the future, but if it had Arnold voicing then I guess it would make up for not having him voice Commando Johnny (which would've made sense with Carl Weathers doing Jax and all).
For laughs, they should have the Terminator say "Get down!" just before doing an x-ray or some move, and the character intros would mostly be different reactions to him saying "Come with me if you want to live" or something. lol
But yeah, Spawn goes without saying by this point.
I like Kabal and do miss him (along with Nightwolf), but I don't buy that being the case with KP2 since I'm pretty sure he's not as demanded as any of the ninjas who didn't make the cut this time, or Baraka even... Bo Rai Cho I would like to have for funnies, but don't really see him happening either.
So, seems there will be more Sub-Zero action in the next comic chapter to be uploaded soon (based on an image I kinda saw of the preview). Sweet.
lol @ Moloch and Drahmin basically getting the Hsu Hao treatment. The mention of Nitara was interesting though. So the blood magic was hers all along? Huh... Sub-Zero's retribution be saved for next time of course. Go figure.
