Gera reaching slightly into the future to rip his opponents head off and handing it to him is the most creative fatality to date 11/10.
nah its another timeline, cause u can see the map changes
@@dontsayflan4315 That makes far less sense.
@@dontsayflan4315no the map stays the same
@@dontsayflan4315 Why do people like you always choose to come into the comments and be wrong?
@@dontsayflan4315 u just didn't understand the fatality it seems like.
Dude, Baraka throwing a barbecue for the boys is incredible.
That one is my personal favorite.
Agreed.😊
It's a really nice change of pace from the typical Baraka fatality too.
@@SpookGod yeah exactly. He doesn’t often get “silly” fatalities but that one was a winner.
That one genuinely horrified me. It really is well done (heh, get it?)
I didn't even realize until somebody pointed it out but the snake in Shang Tsungs second fatality is actually your opponents spinal cord. He transmutes it into a living snake, that makes it 100x cooler.
I thought since the blood was bubbling that it was just a chemical reaction,very cool!
Jesus fuck, Sheng Tsung.
This actually got me thinking about how much this Shang Tsung was designed around making the opponent hurt themselves in deceptively subtle ways. For his 1st fatality, he makes them injest a concoction that kills them from the inside if it gets to the heart. I imagine the reason why they try to tear their own throats out during it is to make sure that it doesn't? IDK, I'm not a psychologist. His 2nd fatal has him turn the opponent’s spine into a snake that eats their face whole, quite literally turning their body against them.
This gives me HUGE Terumi vibes and makes me think about how much better Shang would be ingame if he had the ability to temporarily let himself build meter as fast as Terumi does, only instead of energy attacks, the meter gain would likely come from his claws or fireballs in this specific state.
How did you know that the snake is their spinal cord
@@TheUltimyrArchiveshis fatal blow has him inject a syringe that causes the opponent's rib cage to change into spikes, it's not so far fetched that he could change a spinal cord into a snake goddamn that's a weird sentence
Geras's time travel one is FREAKING INSANE
Best Fatality in the game, easily.
@@rodanhibiki5980EASILY!
Imo best in the game
Best for sure
Geras always had potential with his fatals that were wasted in MK11 honestly. Glad they got he got to show off his actual powers in this one
“Who hurt you Reiko?” My thoughts exactly. His fatalities has to be the most brutal of them all. So much anger.
He was raised by General Shao. That explains everything.
Meh. Mileena had a more brutal one when she bites through your skull and eats your brain, because you would still be alive for a good amount of time after that. With Reiko, you would die pretty much instantly at the very first part of each fatality.
He saw his W/L ratio in Story mode.
@@JohnGraves1985Meh reiko clears
My favorite part about the spine/skull pulling fatality is the way his face and head deflate due to lack of bones.
The attention to detail during the end of Reikos second fatality is insane. Reptiles face literally starts to droop. 15:40
fr.. it deformed after removing the skull is an insane detail to animate
I noticed that too. Absolutely disguting in the best way possible.
Literally saw that and wonder why the fuck it did that. Then my dumbass didn’t think that he just removed his skull with the face flesh intact on his body. Like god damn reiko has so much blood lust than fucking general shao
@@identifiedasquimponly issue is the eyeballs wouldn't still be there.....they would have collapsed backwards and fall out since there is no socket or come out with the skull. Maybe that would have been too traumatizing....
If only it got rid of the teeth. Baraka keeps his teeth if you do it on him :(
"Roses are red, violets are blue. D'Vorah isn't here to bully, so I guess Reptile will do." - Ed Boon probably
His character design in my opinion is the best in the game, his outfit is superb, he's my favourite and seeing his like 🥲
@@Kinji_Hakari. Very dramatic 🙄
10/10
"First thing's first as always; Reptile dies immediately."
I miss Gatorade blood tho
Geras time travel fatality is the most amazing by far it was genuinely creative.
It reminds me of The Flash's ultimate attack from Injustice 2. Very cool
@GrugsZ fr
Baraka cooking for the boys:
@@MountainMemelordlet him cook
What i love about Rain's first fatality shown (and makes it a 10/10 to me) is the fact on most characters the water will turn red, making Rain in fact just like Moise splitting the red sea in half, only in this case the red is literal
Moise?
@@marche800Moses but you get the idea
@@kasagrim7215 nah, i think it's moist/s
The fatality is literally called The Red Sea too
@@marche800 In some languages Moses is called Moise
25:30 The traditionally absurd number of rib cages, thigh bones, and the like is what sold this one for me. They knew exactly what they were going for and delivered.
Bone rain bone rain bone rain bone rain
Ah, the logic of old MK games where someone exploding would shoot out 4 feet, 12 ribcages, 19 femur bones and like 2 heads
Hmmm, idk know if they know anatomy at this point. *Throws up in a corner*
I was looking for this comment, sure it's "basic" but it's a 10 for me because they are referencing all those extra bones that characters had😂
Yeah, back in the arcade era, especially in II and III, people would explode into like 5 skeletons worth of bones.
Reiko's fatalities are ruthless and monsterous. Straight Aztec levels of savagery.
Yeah, he surprised me a lot!
Taking both fatalities into consideration, Reiko is top 5 at worst.
The halberd one is Jade's MK11 fatality, but actually REALLY good.
The thing that gets me about the second one is the body at the end. Reptile looks like he's just chilling...and the face sagging is terrific detail
They’re more Roman than anything. As Reiko pretty much reminds me of a Roman Soldier in this game.
@@Trinioutsider34 Good point. Reiko is NOT to be fucked with.
Yo he had the best fatalities 😂 and Geras second one are the best ones
If Baraka's BBQ fatality had him put on the chef outfit from 11 (bunch of sausages and a chef hat), it'd make an already fantastic fatality an 11/10
Maybe He'll have that skin in some DLC again, hopefully anyway
i 100% the fatality only exists because the devs were inspired by chef baraka
Making him a guest character on cooking with scorpion
can safely say, Reiko is the worst possible person to die from
He also has the worst fans, or at least had the worst fans at one point
I would argue Baraka is worse just cause he’ll get the boys to chow on you
@tinasky7897 I think Baraka dinner fatality and Reikos spear fatality are both equal, losing your arms and legs and it not being over I'd a terrible way to go
I mean he got super shafted from being the next Shao Kahn to a fanboy and never made another appearance until now. Also General Shao molded him so yeah, he’s got some issues.
@@justelias7615 fair enough in the grand scheme of things these are both horrible ways to go and I wouldn’t wish it on an enemet
that shocked expression followed by a "who hurt you Reiko?" made lose it 😂😂😂
He REALLY hated reptile
15:42
Oh God, I just noticed the face goes slack and distorts because there isn't any bone to hold it up, that's so gross.
"I could have been the next Shao Kahn, Boon!"
Reiko's are simple but just... visceral.
Legitimately been waiting on this.
I honestly love Stryker's fatal. It's so stupid and simple, but the walking away and the smug smile at the end just makes it for me lmao
I was expecting it to be like a "cool guys don't look at explosions" thing and he just would keep his back turned, so the stupid little look back he does really caught me off guard lmao
Minneapolis PD Wins...Fatality!
@@jordanwhite352 😭😭😭
I love it, the smug smile and silly pose, also the fact that at certain angles he looks like a younger Justin Bieber imo
@@nekogirlbeth123
His icon on the the character select screen for sure looks like Bieber lol
I don't know if it was mentioned on stream or if anyone noticed it... but Reiko's second fatality at the end, you see Reptile's face sink in on itself without the skull there! Absolutely brutal
His head deflates!
it's essentially the good part of that fatality
The cherry on the cake
Awesome fatal but imo it fits Havik more.
@@xkmuffinzx3915reiko is a war criminal. Pretty fitting
Stryker's fatality wasn't spectacular, but I love how nonchalantly he does everything.
"Yup, just putting a bomb vest here, another day, another dollar..."
he's treating blowing someone up like another day at the office
I think it would have look better if Stryker instead of walking, he runs away from the opponent and cover his hears like the original games
Oh, hello, Animus.
@@fishyboi98tbh sounds like something the NYPD would do man
@@ShabungalooTheStinky Fake news. The NYPD doesn't have that kind of money to spend on bombs.
Reiko's fatalities might be the most brutal in the entire franchise - I've never *yelped* at how painful they looked until his 2nd one.
Also how in the 2nd one at the end reptiles face "drops" or "falls in"....its really f-ed up but also super cool :D
That second one is fucking brutal! The skin on the face sagging…😮
Right up there with Noob’s make a wish one and Noob’s MK11 one with the shadow clone inside the person. Reiko’s are definitely brutal as fuck
I agree. Sheeva's Spinal tap fatality in MK11 is the only one in the series that grosses me out as much because of the sounds and the look on the person's face. Kabal's Hooked is also high on the list.
I feel like that’s the most realistic one, so we call all imagine what it would feel like. All the other ones are so obvious to which they would have already been dead after the first shot
I like how they made Reptile have one of the more expressive faces for fatalities cause they knew people would use him for his green blood on youtube. He really looks like a nice guy that doesn't deserve it.
The noises he makes in this game are kinda disturbing
@@trysten9198same. it just makes me so sad when performing fatalities on him. he’s such a cool and nice character unlike DVorah
That's only reason I miss D'vorah, as a fatality dummy..
Idk all of these guys kill each other in terrible ways 🙃
15:41 The worst part of Reiko's second fatality is hoe the face skin slowly caves in because there's no linger a skull to hold it up. Creeps me the fuck out
Holy shit you're right I didn't see that before, that's gross as fuck
When I first saw the fatality, I instantly focused on the face when the skull got removed and it did not disappoint with the detail.
I had to do a double-take to notice that
Gerard second fatality is amazing, if it would’ve kept looping itself it would’ve been a 10 for me
It is looping tho, just offscreen
I love Gerard he's my favorite Mortal Kombat character
Gerard is geras in a different timeline, my favourite character fr
gerard is hilarious 💀
Gerard shall be his name from here on out 😂
Honestly the weirdest thing about the fatalities themselves is that half of the characters feel out of place doing fatalities at all.
JAJA. YEAH. So many kind characters
That's just honestly a problem Mortal Kombat has had for a long time.
Since day one that has been a problem.
When the games first came out, Liu Kang didn’t have a fatality because they thought it went against his character. Now his non-lethal finisher tops worst fatality lists. So now all the chars have out of character fatalities lest they wished to be dunked on by fans
@@hankfortwelKind of explains why one of his fatalities in MK 2 is turning into a dragon. Felt like overcompensating for the fact people mocked Liu Kang's "fatality" in MK 1, so they tried way too hard to make one of his fatalities in MK 2 as cool as possible.
The fact they went as far as to add a stupid amount of femurs and ribcages in kameo scorpions fatality made me laugh, that was a clever nod
Reiko went from being a relatively basic character in the old timeline to a MAESTRO OF BRUTALITY in the new one. You love to see it.
The way the face deflated in the end made me so uncomfortable oh my god
Yeah for a character that didn't get much focus after MK4 they certainly gave this guy the sauce in this game holy shit.
Seems like Reiko learn that brutal fatality from Kratos the God of Fatality. Hehehehe
Though he's an absolute jobber in the story
@@antonhagbox02 Eh I'd say he's still less of one than Nitara. Reiko at least has relevance to the plot...and good voice acting.
2nd sub-zero fatality isn't just him smashing that guy's face into the wall of ice. You see the wall of ice is SO COLD that it's holding onto tissue (like when you lick a frozen pole) and he's forcibly pulling back leaving more and more sections of the head frozen to the wall with every hit.
Makes it a little cooler.
I honestly think it's one of the best Sub-Zero fatalities we've had in a while but that's just my opinion
Gives me a bit of Jason X vibes when he stuck the girl's head into liquid nitrogen
Cooler heh
I like these fatalities. I like that they seem to be dialing back and going for simplicity and creativity rather than just trying to push the gore level to extremes because the latter has limits and diminishing return. These all genuinely give me early mortal combat vibes with how short and sweet they are, but better because they are more creative overall.
My issue with them is a lot of them don’t seem to connect part one to two like there’s no point in doing the first part of the fatal because the second part has nothing to do with it
Gotta give props to Reptile’s voice actor, he sounded like he was in absolute agony.
Personally prefer Rain’s in terms of screams of agony, but yeah Reptile is good too.
@@videogamer678 Is it just me or screams of agony in fatalities became more realistic?
@@WhiskeyFour03extremely realistic
@@WhiskeyFour03 can say the same about getting hit during gameplay too
shit sounds as brutal as the mk3 screams
Wonder what direction he was given.
Shujinko's Kameo fatality is honestly the best one imo. He straight up used the five point heart explosion technique from Kill Bill, you can tell Ed Boon's a true man of culture
I can only image that technique works on an old man.
True! That one was pretty sick
Which is inspired from Fist of the Northstar.
Heck. Because of that, people want the Bride to be a dlc caracther. She does fit.
its literally one to one
Damn Reptile heals really fast, glad to see he was ok through all this 👍
yup, especially when Cyrax exploded the planet but Reptile just healed it off real quick
That was just a scale model, Reptile is fine 👍
Someone on the team mustve been so damn proud of that skeleton model a majority of the fatalities really have lots of skeleton popping huh
A good throwback to the classic games imo
mk11 had eyeball popping fetish, now it's skeletons
@@sundownerstudios8563too many throwbacks
I'm guessing that they had to remake a skeleton model again for the next gen consoles and, damn it, they're gonna make you see their efforts.
@@neevko267and intestines. Lots of intestinal play here
These fatalities feel a lot more "stylish and fun" rather than the 11's "gross out and disturbing" fatals, and I actually love it more for that. You can definitely tell this came about because of devs suffering from PTSD using real gore references in the last game. Props to NRS solving the issue without sacrificing style
Aww poor NR developers 😢 get them their warm blankies. You are seriously soft
@@SmittyBacall1858people can develop genuine ptsd from watching traumatizing footage. It’s been tested and while you develop it slower, it can be just as intense as if you were actually there. It’s not a matter of being soft, it’s a real issue
@@SmittyBacall1858this dude is so cool you guys😎😎😎
He watches gore and doesn't even care because of how cool and tough he is😎😎😎😎😎😎
@@SmittyBacall1858 And you know nothing of mental illness or effects of this stuff on mental health.
Try working with anything regarding corpses for a bit, soft baby.
@@SmittyBacall1858i can imagine them crying with their soy lattes and twitter pronouns.
Top 3 fatalities:
- Geras' time loop
- Reiko's brutal execution
- Liu Kang's black hole
The fact that during kameo scorpions fatality, he makes him transform into like 4 skeletons worth of bones like in the older games is fucking great
Baraka second fatality is nuts definitely 10 out 10, dude cooks you and has his bros feed on you straight savage
Shinnok mkx fatality
It's nuts AND it's suited to him!
Looks like something you'd see in the Simpsons with Itchy and Scratchy
@@joshthehuman9449 it's mad goofy
I love how more goofy and in the spirit of the original games the fatalities are.
Cyrax:
@@dominoxbelovaxv177casually blowing up the whole planet. Fucking worth it kek
Haha Reiko was so goofy! *the most traumatizing thing you've ever seen*
Literal fucking cannibalism:
Geras' time travel, Liu Kang's Black Hole and Baraka's feast are the best imo.
Can't believe they gave Darrius the wrong fatality. His other one from Deception would have been at least a 9/10.
I'm surprised they did the Cyrax earth explosion but didn't do Darrius' Abstract Art.
I guess they thought it would be hard to pull it off but if they gave kameos a 2nd fatality then they should add that
Let me play with the models and I can mod that in
Give me a video reference I'll see what I can
@@Sonicfalcon16 I don't think I can post links here (I tried) but if you search for "MK Deception Darrius Fatalities", it should come up. I'll be very impressed if you're able to pull it off.
Havik's 2nd one is easily my favorite. Literally breaking his own limbs and using the compound fractures as shivs, absolutely fucking metal.
yeah stabbing someone with your own broken bones is sick as hell & I'm honestly shocked Max gave it as low a rating as he did.
As opposed to figuratively?
@@Triforce_of_DoomI think Max thought the fatality was him hitting the opponent so hard his bones were breaking. That's what I gathered from his comments, anyway.
yes@@kennymccormick8295
I agree and Barakas campfire and Liu Kangs universe fatality and Reiko's second fatality
Darrius 100% should've gotten his "rearrange the opponent" fatality instead. Missed a golden opportunity.
Yeah right? Easily his best and most creative one. Instead they chose to make a kreate-a-fatality looking one.
@@junger8550
Me personally I felt like they did that to reference it. But should of had more with it.
Perhaps if they give the Kameos a second fatality in the future, I would love to see Darrius’s second fatality from Deception
Huge missed opportunity
Like why the hell are you even gonna bring back freakin' Darrius if you're not going to do that fatality
That Geras timeloop is the craziest thing I've seen. Love it.
Geras has some of the coolest cinematic moves in this game, they got real creative with him.
God I just noticed that Reptile's face started drooping on Reiko's second fatality, since his skull is elsewhere... that's MONSTROUS
Homeboy looked like the girl from that anti weed commercial
If Geras' second fatality doesn't get a 10/10 then I call BS. Best fatality in the entire game.
Sorry the x ray is like a clone of flashes in injustice 2
Imagine calling Gera's second fatality the best, when Lord Liu Kang manifests a freaking black hole to reduce you to nothing
The Liu fatality is a great idea but for me, the Geras and Baraka ones “hit” better. Super creative.
If everyone is saying G2 is a 10/10, I'll wait to see it while playing.
Hopefully, the first time will be my doing.
Geras 2nd fatality is my all time fav. It's creative, it mocks the other player, it's well executed. Perfect.
15:44 I kind of love how the head deflates due to the absence of the skull. It's a small detail, but it's one that sold me on the fatality.
right? XD its so stupid in a good way
Reiko's second fatality is something only classic Shao Khan would pull off...It's straight up terrifying and utterly savage.
Definitely my favorite next to Lui kang and Geras fatality.
Remember that, in the OG timeline, Shao chose Reiko as his general because of how ruthless and sadistic he was. So, if Shao thinks you're the most ruthless, then you really must be a bad mofo.
Plus it's a nod at how in the past Reiko was pretty much a stand in for Shao Kahn to the point people thought he was supposed to be a past version of Shao.
I realized scorpions 2nd fatality also throws references to every weapon he used in past games. mk9 was the swords/katana mk4/DA/Arm. He used axes.
It's also a reference to his clone fatality in UMK3/MKT, it had a black screen back then but now we know what really happens.
I love there are some fatalities that revel in showing the guts coming out and then there are some that just have the skeleton pop out with no organs in sight 😂
Geras’ Time Loop fatality is probably my favorite in the game. One of the best fatalities of all time imo. Love that creativity.
I really like how the opponent stays alive till the very end for the great majority of those fatalities. Feels more like you're "fishing then" instead of "playing with their corpses"
...do you mean "finishing them" or is it this some new slang?
21:05 the slamming head one I personally like alot, cuz it utilizes like, when you lick a pole during winter and your tongue sticks, but it involves the entire face, which "I Think" is the first time we've seen subzero do something like that with his ice. Its been either stabbing them on icebeds, ripping the spine out, or just straight up freezing and shattering like glass.
The moment we've all been waiting for is here
Mortal Kombat!!
Hahah Ive literally just said that to the missus 😂😂😂😂
Yes!
Very happy with Baraka's treament in this game, incredible character to play as.
Baraka and Reptile both got huge glowups in terms of story treatment
@@Killabeastaholicits about damn time
Milleena too. The story of this game was all about doing justice to underserved characters.
“Who Hurt You Reiko” Max 15:36 😂😂😂 Traumatized
His reaction to Reiko’s fatalities is hilarious lmaoo no mercy 😂
Just goes to show you don’t need special powers to be creative
Not only that, the second one reptiles face deflated
Rain's first one gets even better when used against a character with red blood. He literally parts the red sea
WAIT IS THAT THE JOKE
@@eggbreakerdotexeyes
The tradition keeps on going:
Prince Rain keeps getting the sickest fatalities!! 💯🤩🔥👏👏
First the water Anaconda that breaks your bones and pops out your head and the other fatality were Rain opens up the Red Sea 🩸🌊
Great animations and creative design for Rain's finishers
Eat your heart out Moses!!!!
👑💜👑💜 RAIN 👑💜👑💜
Scorpion's classic fatality even had the exaggerated amount of bones flying just like the original one. Made me giggle lol
Geras' time loop fatality might just be my favourite in the entire series.
"Who hurt you, Reiko?" squeezed a laugh outta me! 😆
I don't know the lore but from the fatalities I think I don't think they're still around to take blame.
@dragonhunter2343 long ass way to say "whoever it was probably ain't here no more".
crazy how reikos are perfect basically. he has the two best ones. Excited to see homelander and hopefully onniman doing the deathbattle one
The blood is definitely on point with the fatalities and the brutalities. A lot better than the blood from MK11.
Yeah the blood in 11 was like a thick paint lol
MK11 was aight. The best. No. This and Deception are my all time favs
When you see the blood in MK11 as ketchup in the slowmo screen you can never go back
2:26 This is T-Hawk’s throw taken to the next extreme. And I love it!!
He remembers that he was Khan in two timelines, and gets faster the madder he gets
I actually like how simple and basic most of these are. I like that they're more tongue in cheek and kinda fun because it felt like mkx and mk11 were going a little too far in terms of the extreme violence. It seems like they really went back to basics and more classic in terms of like what they did in mk9 and I really like that.
Then they decided to go balls with Reiko.
Liu Kang's second fatality is 100% 10/10 material. Teleporting into space and then creating a black hole with a snap of his fingers really sells his power level as God of his reality.
I will say, I think they rely a little too much on fast flaying fatalities. (Storm?)'s whirlpool fatality should have twisted his body horribly until he looked like a twizzler instead, as an example.
Rain
@@captpopper7219 ah,thank you!
Twisting the body definitely would’ve helped make it stand out more since there are already a couple of split down the middle finishers
@@randomguy9988 agreed.
@@strikermodelThough in your defense, Storm would be an awesome alt name for Rain
to the credit of the second subzero fatality, i think a really cool aspect is the "dont lick the street pole in the winter". The first slam creates a bunch of moisture on the ice, then the second pull makes his face stick more to the wall. underrated!
19:22
Did you forget MKX?
- HERE'S JOHNNY!
MK11 Both Johnny's fatalities
Here Johnny also talks in his fatalities
Geras's second fatality is definitely the most creative fatality they ever made
It's injustice Flash super except now it's deadly
Reikos second fatal is by far the most brutal one I love it.
I think adding some dialogue to fatalities would be great, specially when there is a known rivalry between characters, like having some finishing words to them
I love that Scorpion’s Kameo fatality references the older games by giving his opponent way too many fucking bones. Neat callback to how ridiculous the bone explosions were.
I was looking for this comment! Saw all the bones and immediately thought of the old fatalies that ended up with your opponent having 7 femurs and 3 ribcages
This. I really like this homage for many many many freaking bones in all MK game, it's just nice touch for fatality. And Scorp fatal was so much better than Sub in this one, strange. But.. Ed Boon favorite character still.. no so strange if you think about this.
The way the enemy's face deflates due to lack of skull in Reiko's 2nd fatal is an attention to detail I don't think I'll ever recover from
Yeah that was fucked up dude like WHY even add that? Lmao
@@LuzGarcia-fb8nmbecause its awesome 😂
Cyrax's fatality made me laugh my ass off.
Its stupidly over the top but I love it so much
That Geras time travel Fatality is just amazing, Shang Tsung snake Fatality and Liu Kang black hole are my personal favorites.
26:53
The exaggerated swagger of a middle-aged New Yorker.
Middle-aged New York cop.
Geras finally got time travel in his fatalities, and I'm 100% here for it.
[EDIT] I also just realized that if Rain does his Fatality on anyone but Reptile, he'd basically be parting the Red Sea.
[EDIT 2] If you look closely during Reiko's 2nd Fatality, you can see Reptile's face deflate from the lack of bones to keep it in place. Damn good attention to detail.
Fun fact: Rain's first fatality is literally called "The Red Sea"
Reiko literally had all of us speechless 😂😂😂
I feel that Reiko's Fatalities were brutal due to the fact that he doesn't have any really unique powers of traits of his personality to go off of.
I wish you did these with friends like in MK11. It's interesting seeing multiple people react and rate each one.
3:48 i like how Geras looks at the head so he knows how he has to kill them by knocking their jaw off to keep within the timeline
I feel like the mantra of "go back to basics" defines MK1 in a good way and the fatals also follow that. They are more like classic fatalities but updated. More straight forward and not taking things too serious. I love it.
Id honestly love a ranking of the audio descriptions of the fatalities, some of them come across as really funny with their phrasing
Would you be so kind as to enlighten the masses?
Baraka turns you into a piñata then has a cookout with *THE BOYS* and you’re on the menu!
Geras's time loop fatality, Baraka having a cookout with your limbs, and Liu Kang spaghettifying your ass are all great, but something about Li Mei turning your head into a godamn firework with a flip kick hits just right.
Crazy how NR woke up one day and just gave Geras one of the greatest fatalities ever! Sadly my boy Sub-Zero has some pretty lackluster fatals :(
Sub zeros ninja scroll fatal is S tier for me
how is it lackluster?
The one where the persons head slides down the blade and they puke blood is pretty nasty.
I love subs idk what you mean 😅
Facts. Sub zero’s fatalities are wack
14:06 THIS is an example of it fitting better with a normal opponent because he's parting the RED sea! I love subtle references like that!😁❤️
17:52 "Hey kid! Try this new Mountain Dew flavor."
I kinda like that a lot of the fatalities are more goofy and funny than full on gross out. Nitara just kicking the skeleton out of you is so god damn funny to me, they feel more like the old school fatalities
Yeah that's what I think
They are shorter, goofier, and less exaggerated (in the sense that characters don't keep going with it after the opponent is already dead)
I personally like having dark, gorey ones, closer to MKX. There's some really cool ones in here! Geras, Baraka, Nitara and others have some really brutal ones. Actually there's a lot. I love the sick fatalities the most🤣
Without dvorah fatalities don't really have a gross factor, especially for long time fans
So kitana's second fatality wasn't gross to you?
@@shawklan27 not really. Gory doesn't mean gross
A man experiences such an excessive amount of force that his flesh peels of his bones
Max: "it's silly and fun"
I appreciate that for the classic Scorpion one they added a bunch of extra bones for the character to explode into. I wish there were more flying ribcages though.
It would have been a 10/10 if Scorpion was hit by one of the 5 ribcages that fly out.
It seems like the fatalities in MK games often have a subtheme. For instance, a lot of fatalities in MK11 involve "peeling" characters. So far, it looks like MK1s subtheme is the victim screaming far longer than feasibly possible.
Don’t forget MK11 having a very *eye-catching* theme with its fatalities.
I’ll let you figure it out.
I notice a whole lot of skeletons and cutting people in two here, lol.
Personally my favorites are Liu Kang's second fatality, Baraka's second fatality, Shang Tsung's first fatality, and Reiko's first fatality. Also, I'm really shocked by just how great Reiko's fatalities are; for how little this guy does in the story, it's cool to see he got such brutal fatalities.
Reiko's feel like they're to make up for the dumb fatalities he had in Mortal Kombat 4.
Each game since x has had a general theme in its fatalities. X had a lot of intestines and brains and 11 had a lot of faces being torn apart (especially flying eyeballs) and people being peeled in two like a banana.
@@santa59399 had a lot of decaps
Yeh, theres a lot of degloving going down here
I died laughing seeing the skeleton jump out in Sareena's 2nd fatality. It's so out of nowhere and random.
Do you mean nitara?
Max after Sindels: first one with voice work?
Johnny just sobbing in a corner
The animation on Shang Tsung’s dragon eating through the face is absolutely insane.
23:00 "Scorpion Wins" ...did he? lol
Geras' fatality was great. I also think Li Mei's first one was a 10, though you rated it 8. It was creative and fun instead of slicing up the enemy type of straightforward fatalities.
16:00 the camera work is phenomal, not a lot of cuts, the panning is so engaging and the focus changing from Reptile to the Reptile at the end.
It's directed like a monster movie attack, 10/10.
Give it up for Reptile for taking all the L's during these brutality from everyone 💀
Everyone's talking about Reiko but is no one gonna talk about how Shao summons his inner T. Hawk and just puts you through the spin cycle? I've never laughed as hard at a fatality as I have watching that
I love the rate the finisher series on all the fighting games, and I love Max for being the only human to not censor the living crap out of a Mk1 video
He kind of does using characters whose guts aren't human-like. Like using D'Vorah and her green flesh In MK X and 11
@@mqfii8992even then it's not that bad he means like other guys who go back and edit the footage in post like blurring, filtering, changing the colors, etc.
I do appreciate that a lot of these new fatalities are a lot more comical compared to the last 2 games
Yeah the last two games were cringe inducing imo, too disgusting. This one is more over the top and they don't linger too long on the gore shots.
Glad to know I'm not the Only one who thought this. They feel short, sharp and more like the characters showing off in many cases than the outright sadism of X and some of 11. Less focus on eyes and tongues falling out, agonized faces and shredding organs.
@@EmperorPyladesehem, Reiko, Kitara, Mileena. This game is sadistic
Geras’ infinite fatality loop may be my new all time favourite
