Wow! Shang Tsung being loyal and not trying to take over the universe? Understanding that Shinnok's fate was well deserved and freeing him is madness? Never saw that one before!
The thing is. He isn't loyal. They just never truly display his betrayal right and the story is rushed so that the "heroes" get more screentime. It's a wb film. Great animation. Horrible pacing. Unless it's cagematch,but they had to fight tooth and nail to get that one right. And even then its a johnny cage centric film,which unfortunately gets annoying as much as he is a good character. The problem is mk doesn't do their villain/antagonists outside of one trick ponies and that's why it's falling flat. Shang tsung would have been epic af if he showed his true cunning. Backstabbing shao kahn,earthrealm,AND quqn chi all in the same movie? Hell yeah. But sadly. This shang like mk12/mk1 shang. Lacks that oomf that the og mk 1995 movie and mk11 shang tsung (aka the goqt himself cary hiroyuki tagawa) had. The intimidation factor is high but he lets you down gently. You know what he is,but you know as long as you play n move with the snake,he wont bite. Ya know? Shang tsung is easy to figure out (sorta),hard to master. Shang is anything but loyal to shao Khan. If anything,this is the MOST ooc of shang. But i chalk it up to bad and rushed writing. Shang here has bite but little to no screentime. Mk12/mk1 shang has more screen time but no bite or intimidation. Shang tsung has yet to have an iteration that has a balance of both WHILE ALSO staying true to the character while adding depth and flavor to make him interesting. (Nrs give him to me,i would absolutely love to write for mortal kombats antagonists! At very least shang tsung. Cuz there is so much that can be done!) Anyways,shang is loyal to only himself and his interests. If you happen to align,good. If not,well you might as well be SOULfood. Hee hee.
Shang Tsung is underrated. He's the most powerful sorcerer in MK Universe and he's always killed off by the likes of Shao Kahn and Liu Kang and now Kano. Man he's so powerful that he should easily defeat and decive everyone like he does in his ending in MK11: Aftermath. Also he can go toe to toe with Fire God Liu Kang but he loses to the player's random character select in the ending of MK1???????? Bull*s he should be #1 as he can change to over 1.000 fighting styles and combat versalities as the souls he possesses. Also he's shapeshifting can decive literally everyone at any time. Making him impossible to recognize him at key times of the battle and him losing to key characters every time is f*ing dssapointing and disrespect to him infinite level of mage and sorcery power. Do him justice and remove plot armor MK Universe Shang Tsung is THE BEST!!!!!!!!!!
@@EirinYagokoro Shang Tsung can beat Quan Chi. Well Shan Tsung beat Raiden, Fujin, Sindel, Shao Kahn, Kronika became Keeper of Time and a Titan and also beat Thunder-Fire god Liu Kang in his timeline. Also he has deceived anyone with he's shapesifting countless times also he gains all the abilities of the thousands souls he earns not just their appeariences. Also in Ermacs' MKX's arcade ending he killed Ermac and collected all of his souls. Which is canon in MK9-MKX-MK11 timeline. Also Kronika was afraid so match of Shang Tsungs' full power that found a way to keep him in the void until her 1st defeat by Liu Kang.
I feel they made Liu Keng too weak. He loses way too much. Maybe to make Scorpion look better. The essence of Mortal Kombat is balance. Demigods like Raiden can fight against a police officer like Stryker.

Shang Tsung is one of my favorite villains.
Nice! Very Good!!
Same I love it when some times the bad guys win XD
@@missxmettastars5740that’s why I love Thanos because he’s the epitome of villains winning
In real life the actor of the mortal kombat movie, is an orthodox Christian (the irony)
crazy how in this version shang is stronger than quan chi
Hasnt shang always been stronger? Did the 2 ever fight to prove whose better
@@jbabylucus1641 mk deception intro
@sleepyshadow2915 he did have shinoks amulet, that shlt can buff you. Take that into mind.
@@jbabylucus1641ed boon said in an interview that quan is stronger. Not sure it would count all versions. Quan also do more bad ass stuff
@@flowrepins6663quan chi is smarter and stronger
Kano's men getting killed-
Me: Already gone out the door-
Beat by kano is not only crazy but just straight unbelievable
That's because, spoilers, the fight, the whole universe, everything was rigged by Kano. Shang Tsung could not have won.
Spoilers if didn't play mortal Kombat 11 This is kano arcade ending when he beat kronika
They had to do Stryker dirty didn’t they. 🤦♂️
Stryker got clapped lmaooo
bro did not need to get sauced like that..
Yep…..A Mortal Kombat tradition.💀
Shang Tsung Is Broken because he can easily steal your soul to become you so he can youse your Moves
I want to see Shang tsung fight gul’dan since both can steal your soul
Shang tsung is cool. You're crazy.
Love your videos dude
Shang Tsung getting killed by Kano was total bullshit.
this kano had crown powers thats why
@@TheGreatOne493still bullshit
Nah, I was tired of the same story being repeated again and again. I like. Something new from time to time.
How would Some soul stealer beat the emperor of time?
Thats total bulkshit.
Foreal!!!
From the thumbnail, shang sung looks exactly like drew McIntyre.
Mk11 Shang was the best gameplay wise
N voice actor too
0:41 when i saw Shang Tsung's look i remembered an old TV show of MK but forgot it's name
Mortal Kombat Conquest?
Tell meee
@@moneyallday6524 mortal kombat conquest
@@metalsector1751 oh you mean mortal kombat defenders of the realms?
mortal kombat conquest?
❤🤍💙 all your video's mate👍
Damn,, I LIKE this Kano!!😂
Thumbnail made me thought of lobo for a minute
Same
Same
He would destroy lobo
@westside9032 maybe a Shang tsung but idk about titan Shang
@@westside9032 no even if he did lobo would just go back from the dead
I saw the thumbnail and i was like wait when did lobo came to mk

Do him justice and remove plot armor MK Universe Shang Tsung is THE BEST!!!!!!!!!!
Quan Chi and Shao Kahn are more powerful sorcerers than Shang Tsung in the original timeline. But Shang Tsung is just more crafty and resourceful.
@@EirinYagokoro Shang Tsung can beat Quan Chi. Well Shan Tsung beat Raiden, Fujin, Sindel, Shao Kahn, Kronika became Keeper of Time and a Titan and also beat Thunder-Fire god Liu Kang in his timeline.

Shngtsung is the best ever
Anyone else saw tbe thumbnail and thought drew mcintyre can play that perfect
Thumbnail though it was Lobo
he looks like Lobo in the thumbnail...
Scorpion and Liu kang are the most strongest characters
Nah they gave Liu Kang plot armour for nothing. Shang Tsung was winning until Liu just becomes stronger and better after losing one arm? Fuck that
@@ttay23slayer agree..
Kano could never beat or kill Shang Tsung!!!
I don't think it's that far fetched
7:22 at least shang tsung did one good thing
Am I the only one who thinks Shang Tsung looks like Lobo in the thumbnail?
Johnny next pls
I already did Johnny
th-cam.com/video/_kemNPINOFw/w-d-xo.html
@@MortalKombatFightScenes I mean the Scorpion's revenge
Saw the thumbnail and thought it was Lobo from DC lol
I thought drew mcintyre 😂
Anyone else thought the thumb nail was lobo
Looks like that Ioh from Avatar got a new job
Thought that was Drew McIntyre
Its one those multiverse variants iam guessing
Is this a movie? Name please
Soul power
Lobo thumbnail
One arm lui kang vs one arm teen gohan
Ok am I the only one who saw lobo
I feel they made Liu Keng too weak. He loses way too much.
Maybe to make Scorpion look better.
The essence of Mortal Kombat is balance. Demigods like Raiden can fight against a police officer like Stryker.
Even by mk standards that stryker death is impossible right? No way a person can self decapitate themselves
That was actually one of Shang Tsung's fatalities, straight from the games (MK9, specifically).
Why is Lobbo on the thumbnail?
and Again......💀☠👿
So it was Lobo who killed great Kung Lao?
how come liu kang defetead by scorpion ?
No, scorpion not fight againt liu kang, scorpion help him
I know wb own mk and dc but did they really have to make shang tsung look like lobo (thumbnail)
Lobo
These movies are way better than Mortal Woke 1
That's a lobo copycat😅
