Bicycle Kick your way into KOMBAT TIME! From "The Chosen One", to a Zombie, to a Revenant, and to a God (Oh yeah spoilers, duh), Liu's been through a lot, so let him just settle down with Kitana forever! (For those MTV Teen Wolf fans (Like myself) It's nice to know Tom Choi's Liu Kang and Linden Ashby's Johnny Cage settled down in Beacon Hills lol) (Thank you Uncle Ed Boon for those early majestic screams!)
Tom Choi the best grumpy, rageful and vengeful Liu Kang, Matthew Yang King the best wise, calmer and reasonable Liu Kang and Ed Boon the best AAAAHASAXZSAWASAAASASDSADDSRAAH Liu Kang
I was gonna say the same. Made me think it was two different people. He does a great job at balancing a calm Liu Kang with a vengeful and rage filled Liu Kang. Very good casting
Right? Like his voice got deeper and his accents kind of gone but its still there! Except matthew yang king did a really good revenant liu kang too, it sounded deep and menacing
@@RAGEINYOUTH like his Voice for young Liu Kang is still young, very Asian sounding, he has the accent, but combine it with MKX liu for his past self he sounds older, gruff, and asian accent has somewhat vanished, like he's been speaking english alot more for 20-30 years
Robin shou fit the role perfectly for Liu Kang, he’s definitely the best for live action and a big part of my childhood! In my opinion Matthew has the best voice for Liu, definitely nailed it.
Matthew Yang King did amazing, but Tom Choi was better with his inflections. Matt was too calm in every situation. Never felt like he was ever mad, even when confronting Raiden. Tom was perfect.
The Revenant Liu Kang by Matthew was amazing. His anger came through but above all it was the confidence he spoke with. It felt like this Liu Kang is truly the Emperor of Nethearrealm, a warrior that holds true power. And Liu in story mode fighting Raiden did not lose all of his comrades because of following Raiden so he had no reason to be wrathful.
MK11 I feel has the more authentic sounding Liu Kang. And man I watched the entire story of MK11 that someone posted and I am so freaking pumped to see where they go with it.
Man, I love Matthew's accent, it's simply perfect, specially when he pronounces the name "Cheh Kang" in one of his mirror match intros. Of course, must give credit to Ed Boon for voicing many of the male characters back then, even if it was just grunts, screams, and such. Edit: something I just noticed, some of the Liu Models (MK4, MK9-X, and MK11) kind of resemble their voice actors. I wonder if it was intentional or just coincidence.
Tom Choi & Matthew Yang King just seem too perfect of Voice actors for Liu Kang, just hope they both continue being that for future Mortal Kombat games.
Me (Years ago): "Tom choi is the best Lui Kang voice actor" Me (today): "Damn I actually prefer Matthew Yang King's voice more it has more of a Chinese accent in it.
Same. When I heard Tom choi wasnt returning i was kind of disspointed. Then I heard Matthew and all was forgiven. He actually does the voicd better than Choi.
Mathew Yang King is such a good voice actor for Lui Kang. That accent, same goes for Hanzo (although miss the old actor for scorpion) "I would've defeated Shao Kaaaaahn, but Raiden wanted the glory."
I feel Matthew got this hands down, his accent fit perfectly. Tom’s is awesome don’t get me wrong, but they chose the right actor for 11. That’s my opinion and everyone has their own
Tom Choi will always be Liu Kang to me. Not saying that Matthew Yang King’s a bad choice or anything, but I’ve always loved Tom Choi’s portrayal of the character.
Tom Choi 100% especially mk9-x. But you know mk is trying so hard to be “accurate” it’s making them literally change races and making sure they get accents when they can.
I would've never guessed that Ed Boon did the voice on the first game. Ed paved the way, Tom Choi walk the way and Matthew Yang made his print on the way.
I always heard from friends who played the old MK games growing up that Liu Kang says "Do you want a cookie on a plate" really, really fast when doing the bicycle kick.

yay
Probably shouldn't put that spoiler in just in case you have viewers who haven't done the last story mission
Steven yuen would be awesome for liu kang in new mortal kombat movie.
U should do kung lao next
Steven yeun as liu kang would be best.
Along with ludi lin or will yun lee as Kung lao.
Tom Choi: Badassery
Matthew King: Accent
Ed Boon: YOGWOBOOYOFSQBA
Imma Edit Dat Out Brian Tee, Chinese Jin Kazama
XD
@@Roderickthegray brian tee is korean not chinese
dragonborn I’m talking about the character
choi is perfect as liu kang
Ed Boon's Liu Kang had me dying LMFAOOOOOO
0:16, 0:27
NY Captain all these years and I had no idea he was the one behind those voices lmao 😆
DAWG LMfaooooooOOO
Ed Boon is an asshole for that. I am in tears rolling😂😂😂
Mario on drugs
Tom Choi the best grumpy, rageful and vengeful Liu Kang, Matthew Yang King the best wise, calmer and reasonable Liu Kang and Ed Boon the best AAAAHASAXZSAWASAAASASDSADDSRAAH Liu Kang
TY WOLF *Y E S*
Ed Boone's Liu Kang had me lmfao
This must be the best comment in this video.
Whats ? Kakakka
BOSHIKUWOAH WOBUYODOWIJOLO
Tom has a good angry Liu Kang voice, Matthew has a good "normal" Liu Kang voice.
Thus, I prefer Matthew King. The character needs to sound good normally to sound right, imo.
WR 10 so true
But the first wolodwolod
Ed Boon has the best HAYAYAYYAHAA WOBOOBADAYADHA
Really? It is more like the reverse. Matthew does an excellent evil Liu Kang.
Seeing his work in the MK1 trailers, I like his intense voice more. Especially at the end of the first trailer and the Geras trailer
I like Matthew Yang King's most. I like the accent he gives him. Kinda fits.
Jackal VonStone yeah that Chinese accent is F’ing perfect👍
At the start I was upset they changed my favourite characters voice but now I prefer , fits PERFECTLY
I like tom choi he had a certain charisma with the character
@@raidenkeify And it's strange that Asian American sounding Liu Kang all of a sudden sounds like he's Chinese born and bred.
Tom Choi for me
@@callumcowan7047 Technically he is chinese born and bred. The shaolin monestary which the shaolin wushi are based off of is located in china.
While Matthew Yang King's Liu Kang sounds so calm and wise, his Revenant Liu Kang sounds so evil. Brilliant choice for Liu Kang.
I was gonna say the same. Made me think it was two different people. He does a great job at balancing a calm Liu Kang with a vengeful and rage filled Liu Kang. Very good casting
@@nebula5371 ronda is bad.
Ludi Lin voice Revenant Liu Kang👻🐉
Young Tax Lee voice Liu Kang🐉
Matthew Yang King voice Reiko🇯🇵
I think the delivery of Tom Choi is great but Matthew Yang King's accent works perfectly, gotta give to Matthew, that accent just fits too well
Ed boon disagrees
Kyle Yuen I Know Right.
@@erockthehorse What do you mean Ed Boon disagrees?
Callum Cowan it’s just a joke he’s basically saying ed boom is better
Ed Boon clearly the best
For the people who played Shaolin Monks, Deception, Armageddon, it is
Im pretty sure he cursed on that last line
Why doesn’t he do all the males?
Ikr
"bfixbsidbsjwhatthefuckehfifbwaaa"
MK11 Lui Kang is perfect (look and sound)
So true.
He has the look and personality but i switch between him and tom choi theyre both great tom sounds more evil tho
Yeeeee
Yes
so his mk9 and mkx appearance wasn't good?
Ed boon: Hilarious and funny
Tom Choi: Bad ass
Yang King: fits him so much like he was meant for him to voice liu kang he sounds so cool and goated
Tom Choi and Matthew Yang King are the best voices of Liu Kang.
You forgot the most hilarious Ed Boone
Choi should've voiced revenant liu kang in mk11
Exactly
Both work for him doesn’t matter ed boon was funny
@@amyschildgamerlive4519 he wouldn't scare him like a child he always is
Tom Choi has the perfect voice.
His accent suits Liu Kang.
Its such a subtle accent but its there, i totally agree. Him and the new one (matthew yang king) are honestly too good for me to choose between them
@@RAGEINYOUTH yeah me too.
he's the chosen one
I totally agree
Tom Choi is awesome but Matthew Yang King is the best out of the two imo. His voice is unique
I like the new Liu Kangs voice to fit for his Younger Self, the one from X and 9 sounded perfected for an older liu kang
Right? Like his voice got deeper and his accents kind of gone but its still there! Except matthew yang king did a really good revenant liu kang too, it sounded deep and menacing
@@RAGEINYOUTH like his Voice for young Liu Kang is still young, very Asian sounding, he has the accent, but combine it with MKX liu for his past self he sounds older, gruff, and asian accent has somewhat vanished, like he's been speaking english alot more for 20-30 years
Arthur Cavazos exACTLY
I get chills listening to matthew yang damn his voice is perfect
Oh what about ed Boon he doesn't give you chills?
Nark
BRUH
I would've paid gold just to see Boon record his lines
Ikr. He probably was trying not to laugh during recording😂
Liu Kang (voiced by Ed Boon): "If you must die, then so be it..... WAAAAHH!"
Both Matthew Yang King *and* Tom Choi. They both sound very similar, and are enjoyable to listen to.
It’s honestly amazing how MK’s voice actors get better with its latest installment... and then there’s Ronda Rousey...
She's really not bad. Maybe not up to the standard of the other VAs in the game, but those are some of the best you can get.
MK4 Sonya was the worse for me...
What about Liu kangs current voice? I hate it so much, I wish Tom Choi voiced him again
Ronda made me knew mk 11 was going to be garbage 🗑 lol Tom Choi Ftw! 😆
@@cyberkkult i love his voice
All of this time those sounds were coming from.... Ed Boon....
InfinityKiller 👉🏽🚪
Falsetto is one helluva drug
He voiced Raiden and Scorpion too. Oh and Jax. Frickin Jax.
@@lovipoekimo176 I knew scorpion but I didn’t think he did the rest... wow
Ed Boon lmfao
😂😂
Lol
Robin Shou in terms of live-action, Matthew Yang King in terms of voice (though Tom Choi is great too).
Robin shou fit the role perfectly for Liu Kang, he’s definitely the best for live action and a big part of my childhood! In my opinion Matthew has the best voice for Liu, definitely nailed it.
Ed Boon's one made me laugh so hard I started crying😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Me too
@@pjbanquiao5750 they had to keep his effects for the bicycle kick as a troll😂
It is rare when a character who had the same voice actor for a very long time has there voice changed in something new and is actually GOOD
Matthew Yang King's voice is the perfect fit for liu kang
Can't lie I love Matthew King's voice for Liu, it's just so good
Tom Choi had the Patrick Seitz feeling but Matthew Yang king had that accent that actually fits Liu Kang
Tom Choi will always be my favorite Liu Kang
King Choi tied
Danny Reacts agreed
Matthew King voice is the best tbh it fits Liu Kang! I love his accent
I love Tom Choi's, and Matthew Yang King's.
I do love Ed Boon's too but only mainly because he just made it a bit weird, kinda funny.
If Bruce Lee was alive netherealm would have gotten him to voice liu kang
That would've been great to see
Fucking shit that mightve been perfect
What if everyone got Bruce Lee to voice every character based on him🤔
@@swaggsavage313 I dont think Bruce would have a voice after all those voices
The newest voice actor is the best, such a great accent perfectly fits Liu Kang.
Ed boon is like ever character in mortal Kombat two
Because they couldn't hire voice actors so he did it himself lol
Tom choi: BADASS
Matthew:The Hero We deserve
Ed Boon: 😂😂😂 WAZAPAZSASASFJDYA
Robin: awesome actor
Jim: awesome game
Ed: incoherent yelling
Matthew: best personality
Those four are the best for their own reasons
Ed Boon LMAOOOOO
Matthew's: Great Accent
Tom's: Badass
Ed Boon's: Random Turkey Noises
Matthew Yang King did amazing, but Tom Choi was better with his inflections. Matt was too calm in every situation. Never felt like he was ever mad, even when confronting Raiden. Tom was perfect.
It's because they Changed Liu's personality in MK11
Matthew nailed it
Tom Choi's Liu Kang was always angry though. King's was calmer.
The difference is in writing, not the performance.
The Revenant Liu Kang by Matthew was amazing.
His anger came through but above all it was the confidence he spoke with. It felt like this Liu Kang is truly the Emperor of Nethearrealm, a warrior that holds true power.
And Liu in story mode fighting Raiden did not lose all of his comrades because of following Raiden so he had no reason to be wrathful.
Tom Choi and Matthew Yang are definitely the best for Liu Kang
While I liked Tom Choi I actually prefer Matthew Yang King
Liu kang really does sound like bruce lee
Well duhhhh his whole character fighting style is based off of Lee
If Bruce Lee was still alive maybe we could've heard him voice Liu Kang
MK11 I feel has the more authentic sounding Liu Kang. And man I watched the entire story of MK11 that someone posted and I am so freaking pumped to see where they go with it.
All Liu Kangs: *speaks actual words*
No one:
Ed Boon: wahhhjjh zabafouyajabsnfbfikeknsk
Robin shou is the best live action Lou Kang
Man, I love Matthew's accent, it's simply perfect, specially when he pronounces the name "Cheh Kang" in one of his mirror match intros.
Of course, must give credit to Ed Boon for voicing many of the male characters back then, even if it was just grunts, screams, and such.
Edit: something I just noticed, some of the Liu Models (MK4, MK9-X, and MK11) kind of resemble their voice actors. I wonder if it was intentional or just coincidence.
Tom Choi & Matthew Yang King just seem too perfect of Voice actors for Liu Kang, just hope they both continue being that for future Mortal Kombat games.

Me (today): "Damn I actually prefer Matthew Yang King's voice more it has more of a Chinese accent in it.
Same. When I heard Tom choi wasnt returning i was kind of disspointed. Then I heard Matthew and all was forgiven. He actually does the voicd better than Choi.
ok?
No, Ed Boon is more ODIDAIDAIDAIDAIIDAIDAFOIer
0:16 Here we have Ed Boon yes the voice actor for MK2 Liu Kang and then there's Ho Sung Pak. I would put both on XD
Ed Boon hands down the BEST, MOST ACCURATE and most appropriate voice for Liu Kang, he sounds like an angel
Mathew Yang King is such a good voice actor for Lui Kang. That accent, same goes for Hanzo (although miss the old actor for scorpion)
"I would've defeated Shao Kaaaaahn, but Raiden wanted the glory."
Tom: best voice
Matthew: best accent
Ed: best YODEOHWEEONEWITADIDOINDABU
Love his voice and face in mk11.
Robin Shou: Best Movie Liu Kang
Tom Choi: Best Actor
But the last guy did pretty good as liu kang
ed boon's one had me fucking crying. just because of how he looks
Matthew King is my favorite. I like how he sounds like he’s making a ‘th’ sounds when he talks
That last Liu Kang phrase that Ed Boon voiced. 😂
We all know the best was Ed Boon.
Nah Matthew Yang King
I feel Matthew got this hands down, his accent fit perfectly. Tom’s is awesome don’t get me wrong, but they chose the right actor for 11. That’s my opinion and everyone has their own
Tom Choi is great but Robin Shou holds a special place in my heart.
Ed Boon: YOBOLOLOLOLOLGLOBOLOL
Tom Choi: Has Calmness
Matthew King: Has Accent
Mk11 is the best one his voice matches his personality and looks
matthew really killed it, i think he's the best
Fun Fact: Brian Tee Also Plays Takeshi the antagonist of Fast And Furious Tokyo Drift
0:28 The best line.
Mathew yang king is my favorite so far after hearing them all closely.
I KNEW IT. In Injustice 2, Mathhew voiced Atom but he also voiced Mortal kombat 11 Lui kang
I like matthews revanent lukang voice its 🔥🔥
3:56 You're good, show me more !! What is Kitana doing?
19sarmad88 lmao she was trying to kill liu kang when they first met in mk9 but obviously liu kang was better at fighting
Tom Choi did the best Liu Kang imo, a perfect fit for the Shaolin Monk and Champion of Mortal Kombat. Even as a Revenant.
I can't believe that Ed Bun voiced Liu Keng. Just amazing person. He voiced all characters in MK. He had a great talent.
I think matthew is the best fit for liu kang he kinda talks with a lisp -- like he is foreign to English which of course Liu Kang probably is
0:28 holey fuck that had me dying 😹😹😹
I had no idea Ed Boon did the old Kang voice
Matthew Yang King is the best imo
Robin, Tom, and Matthew
Nah. Boon, Boon, and Boon
I was thinking the same.
Robin for nostalgia
you can tell ed boon has the spirit of a voice actor
Nobody:
7th graders: 0:13
@leo it's a masturbating joke.
@leo It's not about masturbation, it's about them being loud and making strange sounds in class
0:28 LMAO this is obviously number one 😂
Ethan Tiongson LMAO you’re not funny
@@cyberkkult leave the nigga alone he didn't even joke 😂
*Ed boon enters the chat* Ywoadwdasdlkgwdp!
Watching this at work and trying to hold back my laughter during the ist 30 seconds. Didn't know Boon did Liu's voice int the beginning! 😂😂😂😂😂😂
Ed booms Liu Kangs was hilarious 😂
Tom Choi was fucking amazing. I can feel Liu Kang speaking with eyes closed.
Ed Boon THE BEST LIU KANG VOICE (MK 1,2,3, Ultimate MK3 & Trillogy).
0:27 That damn bicycle kick noise!
Oh and Mortal Kombat The Animated Series was fire as a kid.
Tom Choi all the way. MKX had the best casting overall. However, MK XI has the best Shang Tsung and Skarlet's voice is very good as well.
I see Kang I click! Loved Brian Tochi since a child and Tom Choi still one the top but Matt Yang is pretty good too...liked his Deadpool
Liu Kang went from talking like a baby(at an Adult's age) to taking like an Elder God!😊🤔🙄😂🤣
The newest one is the best he sounds Canadian,British and Asian and it sounds perfect for liu
Tom Choi will always be Liu Kang to me. Not saying that Matthew Yang King’s a bad choice or anything, but I’ve always loved Tom Choi’s portrayal of the character.
Tom Choi 100% especially mk9-x. But you know mk is trying so hard to be “accurate” it’s making them literally change races and making sure they get accents when they can.
damn spat out my coffee when I heard Ed Boon's LOL.
Same 😂
I would've never guessed that Ed Boon did the voice on the first game. Ed paved the way, Tom Choi walk the way and Matthew Yang made his print on the way.
ED BOON LMFAO
I always heard from friends who played the old MK games growing up that Liu Kang says "Do you want a cookie on a plate" really, really fast when doing the bicycle kick.
No way Ed Boon voices the original Liu Kang XD
Ed Boon is my favorite 🤣 just random noises. Same for Raiden MK1
I really like new liu kang
Taken a liking to Matthew King's portrayal of Liu Kang, having the calm and humble elements of the Shaolin monk's character.
4:21 It’s Old Man Liu Kang from Mortal Kombat X
Drew Hutchison He’s more middle aged 43-47
Anyone realizes that Matthew yang king is also the voice actor of Atom in injustice 2 ?
