I swear Liu Kang had bias in this timeline. He caked up Kitana, turned Shang Tsung into a con man, and straight up gave Shao a disability. He wild for that🤣
You have to remember, this Scorpion’s identity is the younger Sub-Zero of the previous timeline. Meaning he is not the iconic Scorpion that we have known for forever and loved. That was Hanzo Hasashi, this is Kuai Liang. That’s why he is more humble, less tempered, and practically switched roles from the previous timeline. I understand why MK1’s Scorpion is disliked, but sometimes I think they keep forgetting this underlying factor. This Scorpion is a whole new person, and we just have to get used to that. And even I, myself, dislike Kuai Liang as Scorpion. I prefer Hanzo Hasashi as well. Hanzo is the ultimate Scorpion, and Kuai is the superior Sub-Zero. That will never change in any of our hearts, but physically, we have to get used to this change in this instalment
@@aguywithalotofopinions412 What?! So, you don’t care for Johnny Cage and Sonya Blade’s romantic relationship in the MK lore? You turn a blind eye to Liu Kang and Kitana finally kissing in this instalment? You hate the fact that Mortal Kombat is not just a regular fighting game, but its story modes depict and teach life lessons, respect, honour, and morality that is worth learning for every human being? You don’t like that the majority of MK characters have souls, humanity, good-nature and sympathy and/or empathy instilled within them, and are not just psychopathic killing machines, only bent on rage? The history of Mortal Kombat, what I have experienced myself via the story modes, it is nostalgic, emotional, heartwarming, and a rollercoaster journey! I have currently cried 4 times to this franchise. One from Sonya Blade’s death in the MK11 story mode, another from Scorpion’s (who is Hanzo Hasashi) death in the MK11 story mode, again to the nostalgia from the MK9 story mode, and from full-blown happiness and awe of MK1’s storytelling of redemption. And trust me, it is almost impossible to make me cry to anything, because I have issues that restrain me from freely, externally expressing my emotional side. Only a few minor others, like Avengers: Endgame, tipped me off the edge and actually gave me a breakdown session
@@theultimatewarlord69420 Well good for you, I'm glad you found a story that meant so much to you, those are rare. And I have played both MK9s and MK10s story mode and while I didn't care much for Johnny and Sonya's relationship, I can definitely say that Johnny is my favorite character in the roster. Not to play, I think he's fine but that's it, but just as a person.

@@honestlybrutal5927that’s also understandable! I’m just very defensive of her because of how most people reacted to her updated design. She’s still a really interesting character and even though her fighting style mellowed out a little, she’s still such a beautiful and mesmerizing character! ❤️
Comments on Scorpion, he is more defensive, and has the most insane air combos. He also has the only TOD I've seen in-game so far. I agree at first he seems a little strange and much less... snappy? and quick, but he still has some pretty cool stuff. Personally, I'm also a Smoke main right now though.
@@mohabalserafe3795It's not that deep. He said that he didn't like Sub's gameplay in MK11 or Scorpion's in MK1 who are both Kuai Liang. So he doesn't like palying Kuai Liang. That's it.
If I wasn't already 110% convinced that I'd be maining Smoke, this video would have both convinced me to do exactly that, or play Rain (solely because of the portal mechanic). In MKX, I only ever used Sub 0, but I think it's time for a switch.... right after I finish Armored Core VI.
Smoke is THE most annoying character. He is the PINICLE of *learns 1 combo and spams that* which is already 90% of players in MK1 Btw I love reptile, I main him hard, he's just super fun to play.
Just curious how they'd do a potential Noob Saibot in this timeline since it'd mean Bi Han/Sub Zero would be dead......unless they kill Kuai and make Him Noob, and Hanzo Reclaims his title as Scorpion to get Vengeance on his masters death..... Save this comment for 2027 when MK2 Electric Boogaloo comes out.
I’m a complete chaotic bias of kenshi and johnny cage so I can’t wait to see your opinion on these characters💀. I just found ur channel love ur vids lol
Same here bro, I'm just kinda bummed about them making her a lesbian. I'm not against the idea of a lesbian character in Mk, but why did it have to be her.
@@motianton i really don't know, and like you already know they've been pushing the bill since X. It seems after every timeline reboot she gets gayer and gayer, in the midway era she was straight, in 9, X, and 11 she was Bi, and now she's just fully lesbian. Makes you think, if they do another reboot sometime in the future, it might just loop back around
My top favorites to play Havik. I'm so glad he's back from the PS2 era games. I was requesting him to return for so long him Sareena Ashrah and Nitara. I like glad their all back except for Sareena she was supposed to be playable, but my first pick for the game is Liukang,Scorpion. I play them in every game, Havik,Li mei,Ashrah,and Nitara

I highly disagree with the scorpion take i main him and he's really fun his combos are so cool and his custom looks like that because obviously he's lin kuai notice how smoke and subzero custome look the same the only bad thing I can think of is that he has no mixups but from what l've played with him it's not that much of a problem with the righ kameo
I get hes mad about Tanya but bro i fought abunch of Tanyas an they really dont seem like defence people but an attacker. Especially with her moves set you dont know if she'll go up or down. Think shes great tbh
Oh I forgot that people who play fighting games feel the need to poke fun at others for playing Fighting games how they want to play fighting games. I pity you.
MK1 was great, one of my critics are that they did just character assassinated Bi-Han, in the original timeline he was ruthless but not full on evil, in the new timeline he’s just evil, doesn’t stop him from being bad ass though.
Honestly, Bi-Han has always been a dick, but never THIS much while he was alive and I think that's what tripped them. They were used to writing Bi-Han as Noob, so he's just full asshole from the beginning. Which is a shame as I've always loved Sub-Zero, when he's Kuai. So now I my favorite character no longer has my favorite moveset. I'm a little bitter, I won't lie.
Exactly this. In the OG timeline he literally tried to run away from the clan when he found out his soul was tainted but in this they just fucked over his character & showed that they know nothing about his character.
I don’t want to be that guy but I kinda of hated the way they did rain since he isn’t a ninja anymore. I feel like mk11 had the perfect idea and design but the moves were just a bit boring but having him now use a staff makes me not want to use him.
I felt gutted with how they did Tanya😭 NOTHING COOL ABOUT HER. I thought her seeking guidance was gonna change her entire move list to be more pyromancer like.
I am all for switching characters up a bit, and I certainly have no problems with Tanya's design (unlike some). But as much as I like Tanya's character overall, I have to agree that this does not feel like Tanya. MKX Tanya had a personality that was not an overly annoying paladin and legit had an attack called "B*tch slap".
Tanyas fun isnt in her specials any.ore. Its all in her combo strings where she has bonkers range with that bloody sectioned staff just freaking commanding the close to mid screen game.
Imagine Smoke and Lizard goes invisible and both players get confused where both are, creating an awkward silence
😂😂Lizard!😂😂 That got a genuine chuckle out of me. You DID mean that right? Cause, Reptile! 🦎
Not really. Happened to me and 1 down back 4, the reptile got knocked
That actually happened to me today. We both went invisible at the same time 😂

@@PhoenixMerlyn69he wasn’t just skinny he was sickly and frail
@@Lemondoodles8448 Ah
Reptile's redesign made me immediately gravitate towards him. He's just fun to play imo. And nothing quite like landing the death roll

"Where there's smoke, there's a fucking knife in your eye" was phenomenal. Thank you. I'm going to switch from Reptile to Smoke now
Please part 2. Absolutely love the breakdowns. Very good stuff.
Also do soul calibur 😊
“Sub Zero is badass, this dude fucks” now THAT’S a statement 😂

@@magicaklgurl2787agree
@@magicaklgurl2787pretty sure it was Smoke since that’s his main

Love that Danny talks about (almost) every character as though they're his favourite.
Comments on Scorpion, he is more defensive, and has the most insane air combos. He also has the only TOD I've seen in-game so far. I agree at first he seems a little strange and much less... snappy? and quick, but he still has some pretty cool stuff. Personally, I'm also a Smoke main right now though.
“Smoke is just Scorpion but fun” could be a quote for UMK3 lol
Today we learn that Danny doesn't like Kuai Liang
It's not that he doesn't like kuai Liang he doesn't like scorpion in terms of gameplay
@@mohabalserafe3795It's not that deep. He said that he didn't like Sub's gameplay in MK11 or Scorpion's in MK1 who are both Kuai Liang. So he doesn't like palying Kuai Liang. That's it.
@BlinkoutIRL Saus "its not that deep" but follows the statement with an explanation of how much deeper the joke actually was🤣💀
i love these videos, can't wait to se you talk about "own arm machete" Havik
If I wasn't already 110% convinced that I'd be maining Smoke, this video would have both convinced me to do exactly that, or play Rain (solely because of the portal mechanic). In MKX, I only ever used Sub 0, but I think it's time for a switch.... right after I finish Armored Core VI.
Loved the video! Mileena looks like my favorite so far and I'm glad you made this breakdown of the characters. You have a clear passion for them all
Definitely need a part 2, fantastic content lmao
Your enthusiasm is infectious and awesome.
I’ve been waiting for this video love this content, are you planning on doing a second guilty gear video?
Yes i am!! Ive just shifted gears to mk cuz it’s new
I think the scorpion being less angry is why he’s more boring (also Reptile getting some cucchi from Ashrah
DATS MY BOI
Ironic how the pyromancer (Kuai Liang) is the calm one, while the cryomancer (Bi-Han) is the hot-headed one (much like what Geras said about Frost).
I love these presentations
So helpful
Your narration of the video is frickin' hilarious and insightful.....And hilarious all over again!
The first minute of this video alone has earned you a new sub for life! 🤣❤️
Definitely can’t wait for part 2.
😂😂😂 man I’m so glad I found this video. No way I could watch Al this without your commentary
Damn this is the first I actually liked playing Tanya in an MK game 😅 (Her defensive style suits me)
Same, I feel like most people didn’t realize the 3D era characters had superfluous movesets and pick and choose what feels like “Tanya” moveset wise
i feel like they really made this one for themselves
mk games always have so much love in them
Smoke is THE most annoying character. He is the PINICLE of *learns 1 combo and spams that* which is already 90% of players in MK1
Btw I love reptile, I main him hard, he's just super fun to play.
Damn this Tanya slander is crazy, Smoke and Reptile got the ultimate glow-up though fully agree
The reason scorpion and sub-zero feel like they swapped places compared to the last game is cause they did in the actual story swap places... i think
Well, in a way. Kuai Liang was Sub-Zero in the previous timelines and Bi-Han was kinda yeeted out of existence for a while.
Just curious how they'd do a potential Noob Saibot in this timeline since it'd mean Bi Han/Sub Zero would be dead......unless they kill Kuai and make Him Noob, and Hanzo Reclaims his title as Scorpion to get Vengeance on his masters death..... Save this comment for 2027 when MK2 Electric Boogaloo comes out.
From this day forth, she shall hence forth be known as Blue Mileena
10:20 Why yes, I do in fact think that Rain chokes on rods; sometimes two at the same time, even.
Reptile is a were-human, the alligator form is his actually form. He can transform into a human.
Honestly Reptiles death roll had the potential to be its own fatality
As a reptile fan it’s good to see my lizard finally get his day in the sun, and lizards love the sun
You’re funny! But I LOVE playing with Tanya in this game! ❤😂
