Don't get me wrong, I agree. But Tekken has a pretty fuckin sweet story too, so if someone said that it was the best, I'd disagree, but I'd understand why they think what they do.
Ankl Brekr for me it is but the quality of lore and story structure lowered since John Tobias left, you can see that he made mainstream characters like Sindel and Sonya that weren’t necessarily fan favorite at the time, now if a character isn’t liked at the first impression, they just cut it or kill it. Prove me wrong
Mercury legit tho. He’s been fucked over by both good and evil characters. It’s funny that his opp (Sub-Zero) had more compassion for him than anyone else.
Scorpions origin has never changed in the Original Timeline or the New Timeline he still loses his wife,child,and clan and still makes a deal with Quan Chi to return from the dead to exact revenge on someone he thought killed his family but was actually the man who gave him a chance at vengeance Quan Chi
Sub zero too. I used to like Sub zero most at 1st. But after learning more of scorpion's story. Both are my fav. It is really hard to choose which one is better lol.
@@FilthyCrow1 I Know, whats the point of rushing to get the videos out then they will be out of date so quickly? On top of that putting mk11 in the title is clickbait becauce no one knows the story and how it ends yet.
After all these years nobody has not caught on to the fact that Scorpion has a fighting stance in MK1 that reference a scorpion stinger based on the way his arm is position while he is standing just like how a real scorpion stinger is. In MK2 his arm is slightly lower
It's great to see Scorpion and subzero finally set aside their differences and call a truce. They really needed to let it go. Can't hold it back anymore. They let it go, turned away, and slammed the door.
Kitana was always a more interesting character because of her age her being 1,000 years old in the MK universe and all edenians are similar to humans but retain their youth for thousands of years
@@GGhoshh noob technically has his own game... since he is the first sub-zero. The original sub-zero had his own game called Mortal Kombat Mythologies.
I hated that too but I have a theory. When fighters become a revenant, they become more weaker than their original selfs. Probably except for Scorpion since he gotten fire magic when he became an undead warrior.
Pretty good, just a couple things; Scorpion is a specter, not a revenant. Revenants don't gain fire powers upon resurrection. Quan-Chi is not a necromancer, which is the entire reason he needed Shang Tsung's help in Deadly Alliance. Scorpion was brought back to life by unspecified demons, not Quan-Chi, as he is, again, not a necromancer.
In MK11 I prefer Scorpion a little more than Sub Zero because they do a little more with him by allowing his revenant to take his place in the final battle with Kronika because of D Vorah poisoning Scorpion
Scorpion always has had a special place in my heart. Always a favorite character, always my first tower clear for ever mortal kombat (with a few obvious exceptions...)
Late response but the similarities don’t end there. Both Sasuke and Hanzo learn that the man they were after and “killed” is not, the true culprit behind their respective massacres and that there was a secret conspiracy behind their clans demises, with both of them going after and killing the true culprit (Danzo and Quan Chi). Also the person that they originally “killed”, comes back in some capacity from the dead, with Bi-Han becoming Noob Saibot and Itachi being reanimated by Kabuto’s summoning Jutsu. Also Scorpion and Sasuke both calm down out as time passes, towards their rivals and even try to rebuild their clans. So yeah, there are a lot of similarities for sure.
GREAT video, very informative and entertaining as well. I am looking forward to seeing what is next for Hanzo/Scorpion, he's been a favorite since the original arcade. The writers for the MK universe are doing an awesome job with fleshing out stories, very good stuff.
I’m very surprised and proud you man, I honestly thought you were gonna rehash the mk x and 9 story once you got past the legacy games but you sure didn’t! You have have come a long my friend and it has been cool keeping up with your channel.
Although an icon for MK series, it seems like Scorpion has been beaten many times. Having watched the video, I realize that he suffered way more defeats than it is comfortable for me.
Tbh, the only actual Ls I count are the ones where he wasn't plot armored into an L. Johnny Cage and Sonya beating him makes no sense, and Molluck and Drummond had to do it 2v1, or else they probably would have both died, and when Quai Liang beat him in MK9, I don't count it on the fact that he got mopped in MK Gold and MK10. So Lui Kang Raiden Bi-Han Shinnok Those are his reasonable Ls.
New to the channel (started yesterday and have binge watched so many) mate your editing has come along so much! Not to mention your commentary! I'm subbed and I'm staying :)
Nice job bro. As a fellow content creator I know how long all the editing takes along with the research for you. Hard work but it paid off, nice video!
This was great I loved Scorpion and now you explained why remade this which I have actually original video this most have meant a lot to you this shows how far have come and should feel proud of proud of yourself man.
Oh and good luck on remastering all the videos series well all the need remakes anyways I doubt anyone excepts you remake every single one them not like all needed it but hey still a reason to hyped for mortal kombat 11.
Can't wait for the Re-Remaster for Scorpion when MK12 comes out! In seriousness, I'm definitely enjoying this, it's a good way to remember the history of the franchise and to update me on what happened recently.
Wants 500 likes on a video that looks like it took him a week to make, so in depth, Love your content man, keep it up, really looking forward to the sub zero video! Also seeing one on Jade would be amazing, would love to see how you tell her story!
Due to the timeline thing, I would definitely see a conflict between original timeline scorpion and current timeline scorpion. In mkx, scorpion’s ladder ending shows him becoming Raiden’s champion against outworld which is similar to when original scorpion becomes the elder God’s champion I can see past scorpion trying to warn the current version of the lies the gods are capable of telling and current scorpion not listening because his guilt is overpowering him
That ending isn't really canon, and Hanzo never used his hellfire nor tap into his Scorpion form in the story, so that's highly unlikely. Also, I think is gonna be the other way around with the 2 Scorpions interacting with each other in the story.
@@mr.cpr3457 he still has hellfire and scorpion's powers, it has been confirmed in the comics + the guy in this video said it too, have you watch this video?
@@temeraf.8667 I know he does, I'm saying we haven't seen Hanzo used his hellfire in the story mode in his human form. I figured he didn't need to use it at the time.
Not gonna lie... I think scorpion was pretty one dimensional in the original timeline...but the new timeline really turned him into an interessting character!
Man, I missed these so much! These are the videos that made me sub to this channel in the first place. Fingers crossed they bring back Mileena and you make a remastered video on her.
Do Noob Saibot next after Sub - Zero. Since The Original Sub-zero becomes Noob it only makes sense to follow up Sub-zero's history with Noob Saibot's history.
If you really dive into some of the history of the games, scorpion wasn’t in every single game (cameo or playable. He was only in the remastered version of mk3. Subzero however has been in every single iteration of every game as a playable character
Will the next video also cover bi Han all the way until he becomes noob? Because it’ll make noobs videos shorter but make the sub zero video more understand able. I honestly think you should put the sub zero character in one video and go over bi hans avenger as well then touch on it in the noob video.
I hate how they killed off the restored human Hanzo Hasashi Scorpion who'd made peace with Sub Zero, avenged the Shirai Ryu by killing Quan Chi and created a new Shirai Ryu becoming a father figure to Kenshi's son Takeda. And all to go back to the tired status quo of "angry vengeful revenant" Scorpion.
I kinda wondered the same thing. Because wouldn't he have to make another video? It'll be the history behind scorpion ultra mega remastered version lol
@The IronClad The old videos still exist. The information that he talked about in them are perfectly fine. The only difference with this video and the old one is that the image quality and the editing is better.
@@tomeekun The old video lacked some of the MKX comic lore and all of what happened in MKX. This remastered version is also much more detailed compared to the older one. This is way better for newcomers then the previous one and is a very smart move to make.
I did Remamber seeing one your videos I think it was the scorpion history behind warrior..it was sketchy an kind of out dated but glad you went ahead and re-edit the video..can't wait for you to remaster sub-zero my favorite character
Hanzo Hasashi can't get a break..just how many times has this guy's been betrayed or fooled by others!
I know right , he is actually a good person who was done wrong by people.
I think Reptile is the only character fooled more often
Dude just can't control his emotions. It's beyond understandable, but still.
Ultimately he couldn't forgive himself.
Can someone find Garnet from Steven universe? He needs some advices
@@streetkombat6088 i know, I hate Quan Chi.
I remember binge watching those history of videos when I first found them! Good times
TheBlack ScatPack Me too my favorite was sub zero cause he’s ma boi
TheBlack ScatPack same dude
Factz
Sameeee
TheBlack ScatPack yes
Mortal Kombat is the fighting game with the best story
Prove me wrong
Don't get me wrong, I agree. But Tekken has a pretty fuckin sweet story too, so if someone said that it was the best, I'd disagree, but I'd understand why they think what they do.
Over 70 characters
Yes MK offers the best stories in fighting games
Ankl Brekr for me it is but the quality of lore and story structure lowered since John Tobias left, you can see that he made mainstream characters like Sindel and Sonya that weren’t necessarily fan favorite at the time, now if a character isn’t liked at the first impression, they just cut it or kill it. Prove me wrong
Dan from street fighter is clearly superior.
Scorpion really has the most tragic backstory in Mortal Kombat.
I’m surprised he’s sane as he is
Mercury legit tho. He’s been fucked over by both good and evil characters. It’s funny that his opp (Sub-Zero) had more compassion for him than anyone else.
I agree
Scorpions origin has never changed in the Original Timeline or the New Timeline he still loses his wife,child,and clan and still makes a deal with Quan Chi to return from the dead to exact revenge on someone he thought killed his family but was actually the man who gave him a chance at vengeance Quan Chi
What about reptile?
I’ve always wanted Scorpion to have his own official movie. It’d be fire...no pun intended lol
R. E. Kamilleon West you got your wish
I the same thing ❤️
He got his own movie in the animated movie Mortal Kombat:Scorpions Revenge
Sub zero too. I used to like Sub zero most at 1st. But after learning more of scorpion's story. Both are my fav. It is really hard to choose which one is better lol.
I cant wait for you to remaster this series! Feeding my MK11 hype haha
I really believe that you should have waited until after MK11 came out.
@@FilthyCrow1 I Know, whats the point of rushing to get the videos out then they will be out of date so quickly? On top of that putting mk11 in the title is clickbait becauce no one knows the story and how it ends yet.
Einstein jr it’s more about the scorpion of the new timeline
@@einsteinjr9306
Wat?
Though he isn't my favorite ninja his story always interest me the most
I know, right
Tbh scorpion is my second fave ninja, my fave in both story and play style: sub-zero(es)
Ermac all the way.
@@Alexander-gm4wr all of y'all can get out of here. Subzero since day one (they should bring back his deception shredder costume)
@@jsr5229 shredder zero was awesome, sub zero is my number 2 spot.
After all these years nobody has not caught on to the fact that Scorpion has a fighting stance in MK1 that reference a scorpion stinger based on the way his arm is position while he is standing just like how a real scorpion stinger is. In MK2 his arm is slightly lower
I mean his code name is Scorpion so he gets too much into the role
I'm liking Hanzo more, the Komiks made him BADASS and his Redemption Arc he has had so far is Excellent Storytelling
It's great to see Scorpion and subzero finally set aside their differences and call a truce. They really needed to let it go. Can't hold it back anymore. They let it go, turned away, and slammed the door.
Yes I love Scorpion he's my favorite Mortal Kombat Character
@uLtraGamingYT my Man 😎 Scorpion Is Super Awesome
HE IS SUCH A BADASS NINJA
My name speaks for itself.
@@hanzohasashi844 so hanzo means badass? Scorpion u are the best
Same bru
I CANNOT wait for Kitana’s remastered vid
Chris Wallace me too!
Naughty America or whatever
Can't wait for him to remaster the whole series after mk11 comes out.
Kitana is an interesting the original timeline version of her was pretty cool
Kitana was always a more interesting character because of her age her being 1,000 years old in the MK universe and all edenians are similar to humans but retain their youth for thousands of years
I feel like scorpion deserves his own game most
There was going to be one like shaolin monks for him and subzero called fire & ice
Him and noob saibot both
I agree there... he can hold his own in a fight... plus his weapons are unique to his character.
@@GGhoshh noob technically has his own game... since he is the first sub-zero. The original sub-zero had his own game called Mortal Kombat Mythologies.
Andrea Pitre but he wasn’t the shadow wraith known as Noob Saibot at that time period.
Hopefully fights actually make sense in mk11 seriously how does johnny cage beat both scorpion and subzero at the same time.
I hated that too but I have a theory.
When fighters become a revenant, they become more weaker than their original selfs. Probably except for Scorpion since he gotten fire magic when he became an undead warrior.
That theory is probably true since there is no way that jax defeated the original liu kang
@@hanzohasashi1857 Exactly!
@@blacksmoke6292 but Johnny cage beat Scorpion too. So that theory doesn't make sense
@@damianwayne8948 He only beat revenant Scorpion. When he fought human Scorpion, he got destroyed.
Scorpion deserves his own movie. He's a strong enough character for an MK film to revolve all around him.
About that.
Pretty good, just a couple things;
Scorpion is a specter, not a revenant. Revenants don't gain fire powers upon resurrection.
Quan-Chi is not a necromancer, which is the entire reason he needed Shang Tsung's help in Deadly Alliance.
Scorpion was brought back to life by unspecified demons, not Quan-Chi, as he is, again, not a necromancer.
Liu Kang is or was a revenant and has fire powers
Quan Chi is the nercomancer, not Shang Tsung, but he needed Tsung's help to mainly get souls needed to power up Onaga's army.
I'm pissed that we still don't have mortal kombat fire and ice
Kudos for using "The Only Thing I Know For Real" soundtrack towards the last segment of the vid.
The first time I stayed to a whole video, wow that remaster was amazing and you have the voice of a story teller. Keep at it #HYPEFORMK11
For some reason I like Scorpion more than Sub Zero in this game!!!
Sure!!!
I defeated you as a payback from when you beated me at the time where I wanted to kill Quan chi.
They got rid of Scorpion old voice actor in my opinion it was a mistake
ZECTCustomUnit a heroic version of deadly alliance 😉
In MK11 I prefer Scorpion a little more than Sub Zero because they do a little more with him by allowing his revenant to take his place in the final battle with Kronika because of D Vorah poisoning Scorpion
Scorpion always has had a special place in my heart. Always a favorite character, always my first tower clear for ever mortal kombat (with a few obvious exceptions...)
Same here. 😌
the uchiha clan is like the shirai ryu, both clans been massacred & both sasuke & scorpion sought out revenge lol
@Zeyad MTG scorpion was alive as the last member of the shirai ryu and than takeda joined him there both survivors just like itachi and sasuke
Pretty much
