Sadly the Neatherealm writers couldn’t resist suckling him off one last time as they reveal he not only killed Sindel but framed it like a suicide because of “reasons” true they give a “reason” but it’s really vague and there’s no in universe reason it had to happen and hell it didn’t even work as Kahn KNOWS what he did.
Shang Tsung: It is time for me to usurp you, My Emperor Shao Kahn: I won't be felled easily like Onaga! Shang Tsung: Hahahahaha, Unlike you I don't poison my victims!
Worked out fine for him. The whole revival thing got him just enough trust that the heroes would not kill him, helped Shao Kahn regain power so everyone would get distracted, and he got to backstab everyone in the end, and suck on the power of all major players trough the whole thing. His only fault, getting blindsided by Liu Kang who essentially forsaw the whole thing trough the hourglass. And even there he does end up the winner if the player chooses him. It is really not his fault that everyone else in this universe holds the idiot ball.
@@_Muzolf fujin did not, he knew of shang tsung betrayal, but he was following liu kang's plan, he had no other choice but to agree, it is shao Kahn and sindel who hold the idiot ball. Edit: and raiden as well, since he could've done a lot of things.

Shang Tsung, best MK villain ever. I hate the Evil Sindel retcon, so this was satisfying to watch, and also because of what they did to the heroes earlier. Shang Tsung indirectly avenged the heroes.
And with the crown Shang Tsung now controls both time and destiny and his power far far exceeds any elder gods or titans. All realities, the stars, entire universe and galaxies should and will bow down before Shang Tsung.
Exactly. His voice is iconic to this character, just like Keith David's voice with Spawn. Without their voices, this game wouldn't have been as great as it is. Neatherealm Studios did a great fan service with this.
@@zom8680 LOL 😂 On a side note, I remember thinking back when I was a kid that Kung Lao was a badass based on his Deadly Alliance ending only to find out that it's not canon and as people say "Kung Lao is the South Park Kenny of Mortal Kombat" Random, but Im surprised that nobody has said that "Jax is the Joe Swanson of Mortal Kombat".......think about it.
My only regret in this scene is that Sindel didn't suffer more for betraying Kitana and breaking her heart, she doesn't deserve the Honour of being a "Mother"
I liked her better in mk9 her ending showed ir was just shao Khan that made her the way she was in here she is just a stone cold gold digger just saying
I mean, it's Shang Tsung, that's enough of a hint in itself. That and the scene where he's wearing the crown and Fire God Liu Kang shows up to stop him was in trailers before Aftermath was released.
I watched this and the moment Shang Tsung knocked them both down from behind before the fight just like, “You dumbasses really thought you could trust the guy who at this point has betrayed literally everybody else in this story besides you two in order to get to this point, and now has enough power to literally erase you from existence at any time he wants with no effort at all?”
LOL yeah, Shang Tsung has at this point absorbed Raiden, Fujin and Nightwolf souls and has the Crown that lets him control time yet both believe that he still serves them
@@hiphopfan22 yea shao has ego shame they changed sindel they could have made her like in mk3 where on the boat she remembers what really happens, kills shao and tells kitana her plan to killing shang and depending on the player's choices shang could kill sindel and kitana or they both kill him getting the crown and fighting kronika
This is the perfect depiction of Shang Tsung. I’ve always loved the character, but hated how he was always treated like a weak Snake. Here he’s still a snake, but he’s so open and confident about everything!
Yeah Shao Khan likely left Liu Kang alive but destroyed his legs which is used quite a lot in his fighting style and for his well known moves Maybe his interaction with Jax was hinting to this
You know, say what you will about Shang Tsung being Shang Tsung, it is kinda karmic to see Shao Khan & Sindel got their death coming after their soul getting sucked by the sorcerer. That should stop their twisted ambition...
When the scorpion stung the frog, the frog asked, Why? to which the scorpion replied "It's in my nature", the same can be said for Shang Tsung, it's is in his nature to betray others to serve his own means
That's because evilness is born of selfishness, there's no evil person in life who is humble, an evil guy is always selfish, and he does anything to satisfy his Unsatisfyable self, so he gains any chance to get to whatever he wants, even friendship or alliance to reach his goal but he knows that the other evil guy in his alliance has agenda as well, so it is either to take out his ally and satisfy his greedy self or just wait till the other villain betrays him, and any villain always chooses the first option, that's why there is no such a thing as a villain league.
I absolutely hated playing through Sindel and Shao Kahn’s chapter. So when Shang Tsung got to fight them I showed their asses no mercy. I can rewatch them getting their souls stolen until the next mk game comes out.
Whether you think the Sindel/Shao Kahn chapter is good or bad, I still agree that watching Shang Tsung sucking souls away is satisfying as hell to watch. Except for Fujin, poor Fujin. He doesn’t deserve that.
I like how everyone was largely in agreement that Shang Tsung was untrustworthy and should expect betrayal but we’re FUCKING SHOCKED when he did what he does best
No Liu Kang actually planned that because he knew outsmarted shang tsung is the only way if he didn't planned it the whole plan would've been a total fail.
Yea, I absolutely hate that she is not caring at all and doesn't care for Kitana and has no heart, compassion or empathy at all. Sucks. I want old Sindel back. 😞😭
@SPENCER TANG 6428 2021 yup! And Raiden created a flashpoint basically lol by changing the course of history. With that you change the entire timeline some things will be similar but not entirely. I look at this Mortal Kombat flashpoint. Mortal Kombat time rules seems to pretty much follow Dc time rules for the most part.
For some reason, I felt a great closure to the original bad guy trio in MK. To see Shao Khan, Sindel & Shang Tsung rise to reign supreme, is really a treat for me. I mean, it's freaking Shang Tsung man! The original guy from MK movie! He's so iconic (been rooting for this guy ever since) and to see him getting his own arc and even a great ending is really awesome in my lifetime. It makes my MK journey (since the 90's).. komplete. Thank you NetherRealms for making it happen. I don't play the game but I actually care about the characters, and you treat them well with respect. Thank you. - from a long time fan since the 90's.
I turned into an 9 year old boy again when I first seen the GREATEST portrayal of Shang Tsung in this game! These guys are great when it comes to fan service. They even referenced the Spawn/Batman crossover comic. I love how they nod to hardcore fans.
Never once in my entire freaking life would I be saying "THANK YOU Shang Tsung!", but here I am. Seriously, I will NEVER forgive the writers for what they did to Sindel's character.
Man, after the Shao Kahn and Sindel, i was hoping that they would be dealt the worst hand. I knew Shang Tsung would get the crown, i knew he was gonna turn on everyone, including Kahn and Sindel. Their demise was very satisfying. Shang Tsung deserved to get his revenge on them.
I liked more of this dynamic between Shao Kahn and Sindel, it shows Shao Kahn cares more then just himself and gives him have a true ally that is Sindel, and more depth Sindel. If they made a new reboot, they could just make Mileena Kitana's half sister.
The Warchief Zeke Jaeger If that’s the case they need to fix her face. Make her look like Shao Khan instead of Baraka. Also Baraka tapping that won’t be canon no more.
Shang Tsung may be a villain, but seeing him kill Shao Kahn and Sindel satisfied me greatly Mainly because of what they did to Johnny, Sonya and Cassie
It's official. I hate Shang Tsung as much as I hate Devorah. Also Future Kung Lao died the same way how he died in the first place- Neck snap! 4:23 Looks like Sindel needs some breath mints.
I swear to god. Seeing Shang Tsung in MK11 is just a treat. He sounds so charismatic and gentle yet he is a genuine menace. I also love em in MK1 both his reboot and titan variant
Everyone talks about how Sindel deserved that for what she did to Kitana and Liu Kang, but no one talks about she deserved every fucking bit of that for killing the most of the cast in act three of MK9.
Here's the thing, this Shao Kahn and Sindel wouldn't know that Shang Tsung would betray them because it's never happened to them, this Shao Kahn is the one from half way through MK9, as for Sindel, if she has all of her memories from being a Revenant and before being a Revenant, she knows that Shao Kahn actually betrayed Shang Tsung near the end of MK9, and since this Shang Tsung was older looking earlier, he obviously isn't from after that event.
That was the most satisfied feeling of seeing Sindel and Shao Kahn getting kill. I hadn't had this feeling since watching the Mist where that Bible thumping lady got kill.
Damn, Shang Tsung breaking Kung Lao's neck is a reference in Deadly Alliance, when he did the same on Liu Kang. Low key reference, but very nice detail!
This was slightly underwhelming for me, I wanted to see Sindel get her ass directly kicked in a cutscene and hear her screams of pain from being tortured. I hate her.
How to be a villain for dummies:
1) Serve someone stronger than you
2) Betray them eventually
@ Nathan Ewing there is no step 3 that is it on how to be villain
Nathan Ewing step 3: profit
@Nathan Ewing 3) Spam projectiles to defeat Kronika.
Darth Vader and Mara Jade Skywalker is better than Sindel and Shao Kahn
Sounds like the Sith
Sindel: "He is a dog that betrays his masters."
Also Sindel: Betrayed her husband, family and realm.

That's what i call hypocrisy.
And in the end she had it coming.

Or perhaps they thought the inevitable betrayal was going to happen after defeating Kronika rather than before?

3:47 "My....(uh) service to you is over"
I found this incredibly satisfying. Been waiting for the Mortal Kombat OG final boss to make his run at the top.
Ahhh my favorite villain in the mk games beating the crap out of everyone else ahh I love it
He is my favorite too 👍
Same here
Man, after the Shao Kahn and Sindel, i was hoping that they would be dealt the worst hand. I knew Shang Tsung would get the crown, i knew he was gonna turn on everyone, including Kahn and Sindel. Their demise was very satisfying. Shang Tsung deserved to get his revenge on them.
Shang Tsung killed the retconned Shao Khan and Sindel. He deserves points for that.
I liked more of this dynamic between Shao Kahn and Sindel, it shows Shao Kahn cares more then just himself and gives him have a true ally that is Sindel, and more depth Sindel.
If they made a new reboot, they could just make Mileena Kitana's half sister.
The Warchief Zeke Jaeger If that’s the case they need to fix her face. Make her look like Shao Khan instead of Baraka. Also Baraka tapping that won’t be canon no more.
First Quan Chi kills Sindel and takes her soul and now Shang Tsung, I guess she’ll be a revenant pretty much forever.....
I want to see more of the most evil couple in gaming history.
A.J Thomas Only Sindel wasn't evil, least not originally
they butchered Sindels character ever since MK9
@@ksoundkaiju9256 A.J Thomas must be one of those newbie mk players,that only played mk9-X
Same
@@ksoundkaiju9256 To be fair even MK9 alludes to her being good back then
MK11 did the heavy retcon
Ngl they are pretty fun
@@SupportGamin2024 I'm from MK1 with this series and I like that retcon
. Bite me.
4:05 This was so damn satisfying
Shang Tsung quitting his job without the 2 week notice
You can tell Shang Tsung really enjoyed killing them lol
Yes especially that evil laugh lol
That because in Mortal Kombat 9 Shao Khan kills him.
@@turkaz2063 how did shang tsung even come back to life from shao kahn was it ermacs ending or was it kronika.
@@ZacShallow5682 I dont know.
@@ZacShallow5682 ermac, or kronika brought him back indirectly and imprisoned him
Shang Tsung may be a villain, but seeing him kill Shao Kahn and Sindel satisfied me greatly
Mainly because of what they did to Johnny, Sonya and Cassie
don't forget kotal Khan jade kung lao kitana Liu Kang
Awesome video! Shang Tsung is one of my favorites.
Is it bad that I actually enjoyed watching Shang Tsung kill off Sindel and Shao Kahn
Not at all they deserved it after all the terrible things they did.
Shang did say Shao Kahn had more ego than skill in fighting. I fully believe this
What?? You mean an evil backstaber backstabbed someone
holy shit
YEET
4:28 😂 this is my favorite part his laugh is so evil it make so sense
Yeah the laugh is also my favourite, it really does make sense 😂
It's official. I hate Shang Tsung as much as I hate Devorah. Also Future Kung Lao died the same way how he died in the first place- Neck snap!
4:23 Looks like Sindel needs some breath mints.
Way to go Shang Tsung u finally taken out Shao Kahn along with Sindel. Killed two birds with one stone.
And topped everything quan chi has been able to do.
@@commoncommentatingcommento8683 Still glad that Hanzo finally gets his revenge against Quan Chi
I swear to god. Seeing Shang Tsung in MK11 is just a treat. He sounds so charismatic and gentle yet he is a genuine menace. I also love em in MK1 both his reboot and titan variant
Honestly, I’m not even sure if I wanna play with sindel anymore. Imma take a break from this for about 2 weeks to get my mind straight
Shang Tsung has always been the best mortal kombat villain
Am I the only one who thinks this scene was satisfying when Shang Tsung killed Shao Khan and Sindel
The fight between them reminds me of the endurance fights in the old mortal Kombat games.
1:50 - Oh what a shame Shao Khan & Sindel. You forgot one of the most fundamental rules, Never turn your back on a known betrayer.
Dam they did my boi kung Lao dirty
MGM I think he meant the newer Kung Lao not ancestor Kung Lao cause ancestor Kung Lao is the chosen one. There are two different Kung Laos.
He did us a service by killing his revanant adaptation.
Killed him just like he did Lui Lang in deadly alliance
Got his neck sna twice
@@JumugiDesunra since his revenant dies his human self died as well
Kronika : "You may wear my crown, but you are not a Titan"
Shang Tsung : "...yet" *bites hand*
Everyone talks about how Sindel deserved that for what she did to Kitana and Liu Kang, but no one talks about she deserved every fucking bit of that for killing the most of the cast in act three of MK9.
Well to be fair, she could not have been able to beat them without Shag Sung’s soul power up.
“No one can predict what happens next” oh boy, he was right, no one excepted them to team up
I was hoping Sindel was fixed here but i guess not
Unless if it was new era
Yeah, most disappointing thing about aftermath. But the rest is pretty great.
I hope we never have to see this gold digger EVER again.
Because this was not sindel.
Same
@@alearnedman worst timeline in history
shang tsung is being generous here he gave 3 of them a chance to become his generals
Here's the thing, this Shao Kahn and Sindel wouldn't know that Shang Tsung would betray them because it's never happened to them, this Shao Kahn is the one from half way through MK9, as for Sindel, if she has all of her memories from being a Revenant and before being a Revenant, she knows that Shao Kahn actually betrayed Shang Tsung near the end of MK9, and since this Shang Tsung was older looking earlier, he obviously isn't from after that event.
That was the most satisfied feeling of seeing Sindel and Shao Kahn getting kill. I hadn't had this feeling since watching the Mist where that Bible thumping lady got kill.
That was a great performance lol. She was reaaaally hatable
Sindel and Shao Khan really thought there were a possibility that Shang Tsung would deliver the crown to them ❓ LoL damned fools...
Right!😂😂😂 Their so power hungry and stuck on killing Kronika, but never questioned him abt the crown.
Shang Tsung Used the Reverse Uno Card on Sindel and Shao Kahn
1:25 Did they just snapped his neck...
AGAIN?!
Sadly yes
The disrespect
1:51 "How easily you are felled." A few seconds later he falls himself. Lol
I love the fact that Shang did this To definitely deserve it
them dying is so satisfying to watch, in the next timeline sindel...................MAYBE YOU SHOULDNT BETRAY YOUR DAUGHTER
Shang Tsung killing Sindel and Shao Kahn was satisfying
Never team up with a devious sorcerer like Shang Tsung.
Mortal kombat started with liu kang v shang stung it ends with liu kang v shang stung
Brilliant 👏
This was very satisfying after the Sindel and Shao Kahn chapter
Shang Tsung then washed his soul, for the humiliations he received when he was Shao Kahn's servant.
0:54 that slide he did reminded me of Reptile.
I like to imagine that Shao kahn absorved many souls during his Sould Chamber time, which make Shang Tsung very... delighted.
Satisfaction guaranteed.
Damn, Shang Tsung breaking Kung Lao's neck is a reference in Deadly Alliance, when he did the same on Liu Kang. Low key reference, but very nice detail!
Shang Tsung didn't kill Sindel, he just removed her makeup.
Sindel and Shao Kahn are stupid af if they thought Shang Tsung wouldn't betray them. Even Raiden and Fujin were smarter than that.
Exactly, like make it make sense
Wish the fight scene with all 3 was a bit longer.
Ahhh this was so satisfying 😂❤❤❤😊
This was slightly underwhelming for me, I wanted to see Sindel get her ass directly kicked in a cutscene and hear her screams of pain from being tortured. I hate her.
Scorpion: The Shirai Ryu are dead. You will suffer as they did.
