@@josephtpg7329 because that’s just a non canon challenge tower mission from MK9, it’s not supposed to be taken seriously just like the Teddy bear thing with Mileena and Scorpion.
Am I the only one who actually loves the concept of Triborg? Most people just saw him as a way of shoehorning all the cyborgs into MKX but he's actually canon with his own backstory and his lore expanded on by his many interactions with other characters. I think it's awesome character development for the Cyborgs especially Sektor seeing as how he's become what he has always wanted to be: Almost purely machine. Together with the others, he's pretty much Ultron at this point seeing as he can't truly die as he has no organic form and his concioussness can be transferred at will. It really sucks how they didn't even bring him into the MK11 story to have any interactions with his past self. I'm just saying that with the right development and and having him expanded on, he has the potential to become one of the best MK characters of all time.
Regardless of what the people in Netherrealm say, I choose to believe that comics are canon until some other comic or a future story is release that would contradict it. Even then, it would have to contradict the entire event of the comics and not just a small portion of it
Sektor is easily my fave fighting game character! he has it all! the cool factor, the rockets and teleport, the red color scheme. I love this character.
This was a great collaboration. I find it funny how the Lin Kuei aren’t ninjas but Sektor has the most ninja-like role in MK 11. He was basically a bodyguard for Frost and by the end of Johnny’s chapter he self destructed to destroy his enemy’s base and give Kano a guarantee escape
Sector fell victim to identity politics. They included Crappui over him and gave her his signature rockets because they wanted to fill a quota. Same with Frost.
@@PetterNe Frost never was involved in politics just being a female doesn't mean identify politically correct. She had a story in the role of being in the game and was in the last one.
Wasn't Sektor's original codename "Ketchup", like Cyrax's original codename "Mustard"? Very appropriate to have a real guy whose nickname is "Ketchup".
Funny, I just posted exactly this. I believe Sektor in an upgraded, Skynet-esque, form WILL actually be the final boss in a future game. Would be SO much more interesting than another generic sorcerer.
I hate how the Cyborgs are just treated as Jobbers nowadays. As a Sektor fan it sucks to see him lose pretty much every story fight and be treated less then the rest of the cast. In MK13 (when it comes out in 90 years) He should reprise his role as leader of the Tekunin.
Canonically these dudes (especially Sektor) are the kinda guys that could take down a country's government in a single night. They haven't been a genuine threat in MK since the Midway era. They've been a joke since MK9 which is disappointing cause they're so damn cool
They're not really programmed properly. They just pulled in Triborg moves from MKX. This is similar to how Rain in MKX just had the moveset pulled in from MK9. They work as opponents, but aren't fully fleshed out in the way that playable characters are. I agree though, a lot of the work is already done.
That's a problem with pretty much every villain in Netherrelm games. You almost always play the heroes, so the villains just take turns losing arbitrary story fights, coming off that much less threatening every time.
no it's not it's just normal story writing, especially when you're limited to using a select roster naturally the good guys you play as need bad guys to fight
This is why Sektor, Cyrax, Smoke and Cyber Sub-Zero should definitely be playable for MK11 if Netherrealm Studios will agree to add them someday for kombat pack 3!👌🏿👌🏿👌🏿
I really hate the idea of giving fan favorite characters like Sektor and Cyrax new designs that look good but leave them unplayable, if they weren’t gonna be playable then why go that extra mile? Same also applies to Ermac whose another favorite of mine.
You mentioned that since bi-han died the grandmaster considered the old ways outdated and pursued the cyber initiative. Do you think if bi han survived that they wouldn't have gone cyber?
There’s plenty of well written lore as well but the problem is the writers are always inconsistent in their storylines that it just ends up confusing people especially newcomers.
I think they should clear up the reason for the Lin Que seemingly having all kinds of styles of ninja: grey Smoke genies, blue cryomancers and a weird yellow glass bomb and net guy; but later it seems Everyone picks up the Blue outfit. I get that Sektor was Red to maybe denote his status as the son of the boss... or second in command or something... but what if anything did the other colors mean? or was the Old Lin Que actually more INCLUSIVE then the current "Cryomancer ONLY" Line Que.
So now with another reboot we might get some new cyber ninjas maybe hydro, toxic, and maybe some others hopfully 12 will be a little like decption and have a better storyline
Like Deception? Then Ermac and Kenshi need to come back and have the redemption story retold on screen this time around for both new and old audiences.
I'm sorry, but who's Toxic? I'm only familiar with Hydro; except that's really just rain. Don't know why Rain didn't have that as a code name; assuming he spent some time with the Lin Kuei; ad stated in his old bio in the ORIGINAL time-line 🤔
A fricking CRIME to not have Cyrax and Sektor playable in MK11. The Cyber Lin Kuei has so much potential in the story of Kronikas history rewrite! Instead we have idiots like Erron Black and Dvorah
No. You learnt that NRS suck at storytelling. Sektor is depicted as the strongest out of the cyborgs, but since he’s a villain he always ends up losing. It’s the same thing as Cassie Cage beating Shinnok, lol.
I like how the Shiri Ryu and the lin kuie have the same style outfits even though they're mortal enemies and I guess reptile just so happened to get his hands both their suits to
I like them both, but having Sektor as a good guy would ruin his character. He is a good "bad guy", he gives the whole Sektor and Cyrax a good dynamic.
I can see even Noob-Saibot becoming good, but Sektor was always the most evil and ruthless Lin Kuei member, he was stated to have no soul at all even as a human, bro is just beyond redemption.
@@TVFILTHYFRANKV5where you find a info that Sektor isn't have a soul? He is not evil, but to the end devoted to Lin Kuei. In the MK 3 he defending Earthrealm from Shao Khan. In the comic MK X he is the most neutral character, who not interesed in plans of Melina and Shinnok, he just develops and serves his clan.
either way mk12 is gonna have a very interesting story! i dunno how they are gonna bring back old favourites if they go with liu kangs ending as canon, shang tsung i can see but liu kang?? if he has reset the timeline back to the great kung lao im guessing Bi Han will be sub zero again
That was a great video, but more importantly shows the "multiple" lost opportunities NRS has with the character. I do believe a certain "someone" should be HBTW's next guest to do a "wasted potential" video. 😉 Anyway loved your commentary "Ketch up" 😆; you are a fan, and I'll be sure to give this video a like 👍 and to check out your content. Take care guys! 🙂
Easily the most interesting character in the franchise. But NRS deem it fit to focus on sassy teenage girls over that which made this franchise popular to begin with, so that’s why people are losing interest.
I feel if sektor overthrew his father, he could have also converted the grandmaster as a cyber ninja a.k.a triborg who replicates the abilities of sub zero, smoke and cyrax.
I really don't like how they keep going back and forth with character deaths. They should move the characters forward without killing them unless it is meaningful. In the MK11 DLC skin packs, they gave Kano a cyber suit -- couldn't that have been in the story? Maybe somehow Sektor was so severely busted that you couldn't salvage him , beyond Kano wearing him as a mecha and using the AI? That would have been a fun reveal where everyone thought the color redesign was showing that he's with Kronika and instead it's Kano.
Only thing that never made sense to me is how did they trap smoke to cyberize him if he can just literally turn into smoke .. like his real form is actual smoke isnt it ?
Couple of theories: He was ACTUALLY caught off guard somehow; despite being a top Lin Kuei assassin; he was unaware of the extent of his unique abilities; like his ending seemed to suggest, OR NRS is CLUELESS of their own LORE again. Honestly guys you can make ART or you can make 💰. You can't do BOTH (especially the so-called NEW writers.🙄 Yeesh. 🤮💩💩💩
1. scorpion is not a revenant . 2. the lin kuei did not work for shao kahn in mk3 . 3. you got the order of cyrax's story in mk3 and mk4 wrong. cyrax wasn't rescued from the desert and freed from his programming by the sf, he was rescued by the lin keui, but later defected and was then freed by the sf. so there is no retcon. 4. you say a long time passes between 10 and 11. that time is only 2 years though.
Thanks so much for getting me involved for this! It was really kickass collaborating with you.

Wish sektor and cyrax were playable in mk 11 they look so fresh
I wonder why Netherealm never released Cyrax or Sector. They were already voiced and programmed which would be quick cash for them.
They're not really programmed properly. They just pulled in Triborg moves from MKX. This is similar to how Rain in MKX just had the moveset pulled in from MK9. They work as opponents, but aren't fully fleshed out in the way that playable characters are. I agree though, a lot of the work is already done.

So, the history of Sektor is him essentialy getting his ass kicked by basically everyone.

Sektor's head was taken once by sub zero but defeated by Sub Zero and he said
Kuai Laug: the Cyber lin kuei are Finished!

You mentioned that since bi-han died the grandmaster considered the old ways outdated and pursued the cyber initiative. Do you think if bi han survived that they wouldn't have gone cyber?
The lore of mortal kombat is so beautifully cheesy and over the top that you can't help but giggle and love it.
There’s plenty of well written lore as well but the problem is the writers are always inconsistent in their storylines that it just ends up confusing people especially newcomers.
