Best memory of Mac-Mac was Mortal Kombat Trilogy- the best MK game to me. The combos, fatalities, brutalities, and finally getting to play as Ermac was awesome.
It’s a cool idea that Ermac being one of many is kinda like all the ppl that spread all the rumors back then so they kinda used the real rumor as source for the lore
To be fair they did that a lot. I think the only rumor we didn't have fulfilled was Hornbuckle. The MK team absolutely used the rumors, and stupid gags. Like, Rain...is a purple Prince. Purple rain, the prince. Wild.
I like MK1’s version of Ermac. With that said my favorite fight with Ermac was in Shaolin Monks. It was an unexpected fight that I didn’t know was there until I did some random exploring and found him
Ohh man I'm so glad we have a new MK for you to cover, I really missed your content during the between game lull. I know you cover other stuff but nobody does MK as well as you. I know because I am always correcting them in the comments.
I like to think Ermac's MKX ending is canon, and Shang Tsung took control of the vessel and reincarnated himself by absorbing the souls within. The Shang Tsung we see in the Aftermath expansion is actually present day Shang who got trapped in the void when Kronika arrived. This is why he was an old man when we first see him. Shang was probably plotting in the shadows between the events of MKX and MK11.
Ermac from the 3D era was best Ermac. Dude fought all 5 of the main DA fighters SOLO. Kung Lao, Sonya, Johnny, Jax, and Kitana. And he hooked my boy Kenshi up with powers.
Just wanna put out there I knew this before watching the video lol. I'm not on your level but I was making fanfiction to explain Reiko wearing Shao Kahn's helmet when I was 12, my fandom runs deep haha.
Also I feel blessed for the like, when I wanna know MK I go to you. Some guy named TrueUnderdogGaming does a ton of MK stuff that's riddled with inaccuracies and clickbait.
13:54 In Ermac's mkx ladder ending he's killed by shang tsung stealing his souls to restore himself back to the living thats why he's not in mk11 if im correct. (If im wrong or missing detail I'd like to know)
awesome my nice job on this video man good job we are many u are one i like this video u made on ermace love it keep up the good work on this one nice job on the history on this video history behind the warrior good job man.
I find it interesting that the hoax of Ermac being fought "at the statues" would get referenced in Shaolin Monks, as that is where you can optionally fight him. You just KNOW that was done on purpose.
History behind the warrior, if you don't have a video on it, highly recommend covering all the fan rumored characters and which ones turned into real characters or not. Hornbuckle is all but forgotten now.
Did anyone else think his turn against Mileena in MKX made no sense? Like he was made by Shao Kan to fill out his commands and wishes which would have included having Mileena become the new Kan. Plus how did Reptile and Ermac not know Mileena was created in the fleshpits? It's not like Kitana had a sister that they just happened to never meet in the years they worked for Shao Kan, and in MK9 Shao Kan was pretty open about Shang tsung creating her.
I don’t really that Jerrod wads up being in control of Ermac in the new era. I like it a lot better with there not being any one individual taking precedence over the others within Ermac. I also don’t really like his face in that game either. But he’s still one of my favorite character’s regardless.
I don't so much care about the face thing -playable Ermac seems to be getting the traditional MK ninja mask anyway- but otherwise I agree 100%. 'Collection of souls' Ermac is a lot cooler than just 'Jerrod'. The way he talks in the trailer (when Reptile says 'you've changed', Ermac responds 'we believe for the better') makes me think he's not going to be Jerrod, though.
Ermac was not in 11 because maybe his tower ending was true, somehow the soul of Shang Tsung was gone inside Ermac in MKX and being the most powerful soul he freed himself and "sucking" the souls from an already week and decaying Ermac, he came back to life...that's why Tsung is in MK11 but not Ermac....I guess.
I remember getting ultimate mk3 for a Christmas present back in the day. I was still rocking the Sega mage drive at that stage and loved that game. It brought me so many hours of ultraviolet joy. Mk1, 2 and ultimate 3 are my personal top 3 MK's. I've always been a massive fan of the franchise but I just can't seem to get into the recent titles atall. Must be finally getting old.
I gotta say, not to be negative but i really miss your old style of narrating, I used to love relaxing on a night to your video's but the past year youve tried to add these dynamics to your voice that makes a little more jarring and hard to chill to. Its like youre jumping into the mic at the start of every sentence then slowly pulling away where as it used to be a nice even volume. again sorry to be negative still love the content!
I think its probably a bi-product of doing commentary on the side, the crossover has definitely bled over to the TH-cam side of things I feel, Ill defintely take this in mind though as it has been rather hard on my voice recently so dialling things down might be a good idea in hindsight
@@Historybehindthewarrior oh I see yeah it does have more of a commentary vibe now, like i say its not bad I think its just dialing back from the mic abit when your voice is more forceful :)
Since Jerrod's soul is inside Ermac, does anyone think Travis Willingham could have voiced Jerrod? Not his actual VA in the game, but he did voice Old Raiden in Liu Kang's chapter and sounds alike. Maybe next game? I say, why not?
It would be so bad ass if after all the complaints and problems as a final DLC after it all they make all kameo characters playable as main roster characters and vice versa.
When I knew Ermac was lots of souls in a body. Made me think that the Developers of the game where inspired in the Bible. The demon Legion: "My name is Legion. So we are many"
when i was about 8 i was watching 2 older kids play MK2 in the wastelands of outworld stage i saw smoke drop before the match started and say "ermac Who" then jump back up,i have never been able to see this again and cant find any info on it but i know i saw it ... mandella effect maybe ?
Bro just like he was born from a collection of souls we the fans made him from a collection of rumors I just realized that
I hate to admit it but fuck that's genius. Never heard that analogy and Ermac has existed long enough to legally drink. Kudos man.
Now that's Meta
I always thought the collection was a bit of a code
Collection of Souls made Ermac
Collection of fans that have souls
We are many lol
Ahhh. Smart
Ermac: We too were born of sorcery.
Scorpion: Do not compare yourself to me.
Ermac: Very well, doomed one.
8:59 shout out to mk9 for having the coldest start screen in video game history

I love the nick name 😂
@@PrettyGothBoi6085 it was from Ferra in MK 😂
Trilogy is the best to me too. Especially aesthetically.
Definitely the best Mk ever
That's my real life Nickname spelling and all
My boy Ermac looks great. Excited for Tuesday.
THATS RIGHT!!! ERMAC THE GOAT 🐐 IS BACK‼️‼️ MY FAVORITE OF ALL TIME
Weakest of all time😂
Noob is better

Perfect video to celebrate the coming of Ermac in MK 1
I love how Ermac was introduced/created, and this game allowed us to see how someone being a fusion of Souls was made.
Ermac really is one of my all time Favs! Having played MK since it came out this is one kharacter that had amazing growth through the series!
“We are many, you are one…”
Everything about Ermac is badass...
Indeed a Ninja
Always good content.Been following you for a while recently seen you behind the camera mad respect
Dude my favorite memory of ermac is mortal kombat Deception, and using his axe when he would do the swirl.
Well Ermac the closest for us to also play as King Jerrod
Ermac was literally one of my favorites when i started playing mk9 and loved him ever since.
Ohh man I'm so glad we have a new MK for you to cover, I really missed your content during the between game lull.

ERMAC WILL ALWAYS BE THE G.O.A.T!!
Ermac,reptile, and subzero are my favorites in that order
Noob scorpion Ermac

Great job: THANK YOU!!!
awesome my nice job on this video man good job we are many u are one i like this video u made on ermace love it keep up the good work on this one nice job on the history on this video history behind the warrior good job man.
These are really cool videos y'all.
We are ERMAC. A collection of souls bound by Quan Chi's Magic, We live to obey his commands.
I find it interesting that the hoax of Ermac being fought "at the statues" would get referenced in Shaolin Monks, as that is where you can optionally fight him. You just KNOW that was done on purpose.
Ermac is awesome
Wish he remained a ninja instead of devolving into a mummy
At least they gave us the ninja skins for Ermac to make up for this.
History behind the warrior, if you don't have a video on it, highly recommend covering all the fan rumored characters and which ones turned into real characters or not. Hornbuckle is all but forgotten now.
Cant wait to see his ending and how someone else is controlling him/them.
Ermac-Bi Han-Reptile are the best Ninjas ever
EREMAC is catchphrase we are many but we are one
5:06 shujinko is not from outworld
Since my first game was trilogy I was familiar with him. I just didn't know much.
great video
Did anyone else think his turn against Mileena in MKX made no sense? Like he was made by Shao Kan to fill out his commands and wishes which would have included having Mileena become the new Kan.

1:52 Ed Boom in all his glory 🤣🤣🤣
Ernac became Hermac after absorbing Sindels soul
Error Macro.
Ermac was not in 11 because maybe his tower ending was true, somehow the soul of Shang Tsung was gone inside Ermac in MKX and being the most powerful soul he freed himself and "sucking" the souls from an already week and decaying Ermac, he came back to life...that's why Tsung is in MK11 but not Ermac....I guess.

First comment🎉 how are you
We are Many! You are but One!!
Love the Ermac Quote. Especially in MK9 .
hey when are we going to get the 5 worst retconned characters video?
Hopefully next week at the latest, it's top of the list right now
@@Historybehindthewarrior ok good
Ermac and SubZero will always be my favorites
What movie do you play during the MK videos?
Yeeeeeesssssss!!
Ermacs souls are the errors recorded in the past .
It would be so bad ass if after all the complaints and problems as a final DLC after it all they make all kameo characters playable as main roster characters and vice versa.
When I knew Ermac was lots of souls in a body. Made me think that the Developers of the game where inspired in the Bible.
The demon Legion:
"My name is Legion. So we are many"
when i was about 8 i was watching 2 older kids play MK2 in the wastelands of outworld stage i saw smoke drop before the match started and say "ermac Who" then jump back up,i have never been able to see this again and cant find any info on it but i know i saw it ... mandella effect maybe ?
Mk 9 is my fav for ermac, maybe in x to
It’s really unfortunate that the royal family lost control of Ermac I was hoping that they would both somehow be revived at some point oh well I guess
Whats Earf realm or neverrealm?
No raiden re set the time line at the last moment had a whole game about the visions and that freaked the time lines with the DC
Wish Noob was good as well
Shiujenko is an earthrealmer is he not? Not outworkder.
First! (more or less)
Uhhh, no internet? 😂
They fu***d him up after MK9!
I think the mask would be better if it were all black tbh
The best this has to be that they've made him good again, Man I didn't even suspect him to appear in the story but when he did I Lost my shit 😭🤌🏿
Jermac
It's King Jerrod, not Jared. You should know this.
