Yeah, but you should also know that Shang Tsung bring a lot of bad things on himself. For example, living just to suck the souls of the people? He cheated in on of MK tournaments and the price was that he will age rapidly, that's his punishment. In face, in every MK game, he got punished badly for his own actions.

@@pjbanquiao5750 There is NO WAY in HELL Liu Kang should have won THAT fight with how powered up Shang Tsung got. I swear that would be ALMOST as big of a reach as Cassie Cage beating Shinnok
But I do not agree. I really like Shang Tsung from MK9, and it's the old one. Yes, I watched the film, and yes, as a child, only once. It's a good idea, but I liked the previous character more.
Shang Tsung reminds me of a boss that I used to work for. The guy was always up to something. Very sneaky and always had an agenda. He couldn't steal souls but it was soul sucking working for him.
If your talking about Shang Tsing he was always bad just pretending to be good to kinda earn their trust enough for him to wear the crown in the right moment. And he also knows the full potential and power of the crown so he used that to his advantage as well.
I liked the first Mortal Kombat movie, so I really appreciated the fact that Shang Tsung was the main antagonist of the dlc, a good throwback to the original game and the movie :)
@@bigjstudios3421 I disagree, they couldve easily written Mileena into the story that wouldve served as great character development for her and Kitana in a good way. If they were going to reset the timeline they could've at least given both of those characters closure but they fucked that up
2:14 I love how the music choir pops off when Shang roasts Sindel and Shao from behind, as if this is some shocking and completely unforseen development 😂
Yeah and they got their souls taken away by Shang Tsung too which was so hilarious when they started screaming too as they was dying and when they died they looked all dried up and wrinkly too.
I didn’t like the Aftermath story, but I must say that the dynamic between Sindel and Shao Khan is amazing. They are literally a whole unit by themselves. They either fight side by side or in place of each other.
@@mikeshark8869 It's a pity that many fans reacted very negatively to this couple due to the change in Sindel's character. I also think Shao/Sindel's romantic villainous team dynamic and Shang Tsung's portrayal in this DLC were the best parts of MK11.
@@elliotgirl3921 The reason people hated it was that Sindel (even in MK9 if you play her arcade story) at her core a loving mother that valued her nation and people. To be turned into a "lol I killed my husband and sold my people into slavery cus Khan was hot" didn't stand too well with people who had grown up knowing her original character.
Technically once, but yes twice, it's confusing to think about but in the original rebooted timeline, Shao Kahn snapped his neck in the arena, and in Aftermath, Shao Kahn snapped his neck on a boat near the sea of blood, but this Kung Lao that got his neck snapped at the sea of blood was supposed to meet his fate way earlier in the arena, but events from MK 11 interfered with events in MK 9, so Liu Kang never died, and whoever else was brought over lived different lives
Sindel killed Jade in MK IX, killed her in her ending, killed her in the Battle of the Blood Sea and again in Kronika's Keep. Damn, Sindel must really hate Jade!
Then Shang Tsung consumed her soul with a smile, for being used as a fuel to make her stronger in MK9. Shang Tsung must really hate both Shao Kahn and Sindel =)))))
shang tsung deserved every ounce of victory in this story mode. shang tsung put in the work, the deception, he actually earned it. I pick the shang tsung ending simply because that's how much I respect his hard work.
Shang Tsung's ending may even end up being the canon one because it looks like they are about to reboot the series again. I'm especially thankful he killed the horribly retconned Sindel and pussy ass Shao Kahn
Sadly that's not the case. In the new game Liu Kang, in his arrogance and superiority complex, pulled a Christianity and Muslim and made himself the sole god and only powerful character in the new Era. I never liked Liu Kang, I never will. The majority of the MK Community has already built a cult or sect around their „god“, which I would never join in either life or death. I always choose Shang Tsung in the Aftermath DLC.

Anyway, their demise should stop their twisted ambition..." => Shao Kahn believed that he could beat Shang Tsung with his might. Actually, Shao Kahn thinks that he could beat anybody with his might, which has been proven to be false at least 3 times. And Sindel was too busy with Shao Kahn's dick at the moment they were fighting Shang Tsung, so she "forgot", i think. "Didn't you said that you need crown in order to reshape history you envisioned? Whatever happens to that? Its a no wonder Shang Tsung beat you..." => About this, it depends on what choice the players make. If Liu Kang beats Shang Tsung and turns him into dust, then what? I've heard you guys keep saying that the story of MK11 Aftermath makes no sense, but actually it makes a lot of sense. Imagine Shang Tsung as the Communists in WW2, Raiden's side is the Allied Forces, Shao Kahn's side is Fascist, Kronika's side is another side of Fascists, say, the Japanese forces, and Fire god Liu Kang was the last force to fight the Communists, the Nationalist. Clearly, the fight between Liu Kang and Shang Tsung at the very end is the symbol of the battle between the Nationalist side and the Communists side. Only this time, you get to choose which side will win. In real history, the Communist side won in China, lost in Japan, Singapore and South Korean. However, that's just my opininon, because clearly, you guys have yours too.
I understand that this is just part of the game mechanics since this game is 1 vs 1, but I can't help but think how at 2:54 Sindel suggests attacking Shang Tsung together, but Shao Kahn makes a gesture like "Stay here" and goes into the fight alone. Shao didn't mind for the entire chapter if Sindel wanted to fight Geras/Kessie/Johnny/Kung Lao, but not this time. I can't help but think he's protective of her. I think Shao understood that Shang Tsung with the crown is now quite dangerous, so he went into battle first.
Watching Shang Tsung literally drain the life out of that unholy mockery that Netherrealm calls Sindel was WAY more satisfying than it should’ve been. Here’s hoping she doesn’t return for MK12. Or ever.
@@TheNadroj10The Good Sindel is already back and she’s in The New Era Timeline and she now has two daughters that are named Kitana and Mileena. She’s also married to King Jarod and also King Jarod got killed by someone else and also Sindel isn’t married to Shao Khan in any way. Shao Khan is now a Stepphenwolf type Character now because he fights with a Axe and not a Hammer this time.
Shang Tsung is a sorcerer cruel , heartless and inhuman . But in final fighting match , Shang Tsung has a "little kindness" , he give Kronika a chance live . If Kronika agree become "serve" of Shang Tsung , and she will have "good place" in New Era of Shang Tsung . Although in soul of Shang Tsung , part good is too little compare with "part cruel" .
Shao Kahn got pussified, Sindel got retconned and wholly assassinated as a character and Kronika was pulled straight out of the writers' asses and made into the quasi big bad of the series without ever having to earn it. Only Shang Tsung remained consistent and true to himself, and yet he got backstabbed and killed off in MK9. All things considered, they all deserved to have their asses kicked by him.
(Sighs in relief), I've always find it Cathartic when Shang Tsung drains their souls, thus, killing them permanently. Sindel gets what she deserves (and Shao Kahn, too), for bringing such atrocities and mayhem. Hopefully she WON'T be in Mortal Kombat 12 and more.
Nrs ruined her character by making her into genric evil empress with none of the same character traits she is basically a new character wearing her skin watch 4snake videos for more information if you like
Sindel and Shao Khan had their deserved end. Shang Tsung has a personality identical to the villain Lopan in the adventurous film of Big Trouble in Little China.
Well, Shao Khan should have kinda seen it coming! First rule of the evil overlord: NEVER have underlings that can destroy you with ease if they wanted, and you lack means to prevent it. Because then what happens if they gain godhood and decide they're underlings no more? Luckily for him, Shao Khan is a strict observer of the second rule of the evil overlord: be too much of an ego maniac that is blind to obvious weaknesses.
Crazy how Shang Tsung offered Shao Kahn a chance too work for him. After all Shao Kahn did too him. Shows Shang Tsung had some respect for him. Too bad Shao did not feel the same.
I still say they did Sindel backwards. Making her look good as a villain but scary as a hero. As far as appearances go. I truly believed she was done a justice in her resurrection until she sided with Shang Tsung. They needed her power to stop Centrion and help save the future. Then she could have restored Edenia. That would have been a satisfying storyline for me.
See Shao Kahn being defeated in almost every fight in MK11 was disgraceful... I miss MK9 old days when the people of earth literally needed the power of ancients gods to have a chance against Shao Khan, in MK11 who sucks is Shao Khan instead of him saying that line
I can imagine what Kronika's thinking right now before Shang Tsung consumes her soul, *"I should have expected that from a deceitful fool such as yourself, Sorcerer! A fool who betrayed his own masters!"*
Me at 2:00: KILL HERRRR Me at 2:15: Mkay, KILL THEM TOO Me after all that: unexpected, but okay Welp, they both deserved it, for all the did, and Kronika? Oh well she deserved it, for trying to do that
What is disturbing hilarious is that Shang Tsung quickly switches up on Shao Kahn & Sindel aside from the fact that Netherrealm Studios completely messed up her Redemption character development but that's besides the point as TH-cam user Dashie would say. In case you're wondering I'm a fan of Mortal Kombat character Sheeva to which I didn't know she was a mom who lost her kids as first species of people became kinda like us Americans if given too much money. If I was on the writing staff of Netherrealm Studios while making Mortal Kombat 11, I would stress to Ed boon & the writing staff not to make Sindel even more unlikable character by throwing her Redemption character development out the window after the previous Mortal Kombat game. Instead Sindel would be temporarily a lovable side character trying to fix her relationship with her daughter Katana. Then followed by her becoming a reliable ally for Earthrealm Lu Kang & them go pick up to go save everyone from whatever the threat may be. Raiden wouldn't be constantly blindly loyal to the Elder gods who can care less about whatever happens in the Mortal Kombat universe, the blood-oath between Sindel & Sheeva would be paid through motherhood friendship. Everything else with Mortal Kombat 11 is fine, is just that my main issue with it is that Sindel is written poorly.
Personally I hated how they changed sindel origin and made her into nothing but a power hungery b#%tch rather than a mother that was brainwashed into being loyal to an evil ruler that later got saved by her daughter's love however I did love how they made Shang tsung a cunning and powerful villian in this one bring back justice to such a cool character and even gave him a possible ending.
Shang Tsung's green magic is a blizzard's "Fel magic !!. Anyone who knows warcraft will understand : )))) Just watch the movie Warcraft .. This is Gul'dan's Spell

She's unaware of her defeat to Fire God Liu Kang as she's dead and erase from history and Fire God Liu Kang didn't happen as everything was alternate.
@@mr.checkyourself4672 yet fire God liu kang still exists
Yeah, dude. The story could've been written better by middle schoolers. Nothing makes any sense.
"Said the vile queen who double-crossed Outworld and Kitana for Shao Khan simply because he is "strong". Y'know what, I'd rather refer the REAL Sindel from the original timeline because she, unlike the rebooted counterpart, willing to sacrifice herself for Edenia while still loves her baby girl. Blame whoever the inept fool "
=> Frankly, this Sindel just reveals how women actually are in real life, to be honest. I did not expect it to be this real, but yeah, it is what it is. This Sindel just reflect what women are truly like when they stay with an asshole. Besides, i never liked Sindel anyway.
"Say what you will about Shang Tsung being Shang Tsung, it is kinda karmic to see Shao Khan & Sindel got their death coming after the sorcerer suck them dry by absorbing their wicked souls. For their knowledge about Shang Tsung's treachery, they should have him done even before he can even have that Crown. Anyway, their demise should stop their twisted ambition..."
=> Shao Kahn believed that he could beat Shang Tsung with his might. Actually, Shao Kahn thinks that he could beat anybody with his might, which has been proven to be false at least 3 times. And Sindel was too busy with Shao Kahn's dick at the moment they were fighting Shang Tsung, so she "forgot", i think.
"Didn't you said that you need crown in order to reshape history you envisioned? Whatever happens to that? Its a no wonder Shang Tsung beat you..."
=> About this, it depends on what choice the players make. If Liu Kang beats Shang Tsung and turns him into dust, then what?
I've heard you guys keep saying that the story of MK11 Aftermath makes no sense, but actually it makes a lot of sense.
Imagine Shang Tsung as the Communists in WW2, Raiden's side is the Allied Forces, Shao Kahn's side is Fascist, Kronika's side is another side of Fascists, say, the Japanese forces, and Fire god Liu Kang was the last force to fight the Communists, the Nationalist.
Clearly, the fight between Liu Kang and Shang Tsung at the very end is the symbol of the battle between the Nationalist side and the Communists side. Only this time, you get to choose which side will win. In real history, the Communist side won in China, lost in Japan, Singapore and South Korean.
However, that's just my opininon, because clearly, you guys have yours too.
Good Sindel returns in Injustice 3 or Mortal Kombat 12
Kronika here looked like a gay dude who bottomed for the first time XD lmao
I'm a top.
@@ThaShiznit1986 lmao same!
Are you sure? Because i pretty sure kronika is women.
@@nathanramos4563 looked like.... Dude, translating issues much.... Ow, and did you just fucking assumed her gender! Where is my soy milk
She looks more like the ancient one from Marvel.
"What do you mean we shouldn't have trusted the evil power-thirsty mage who has eluded others in the past"
Shang tsung, Orochimaru, Freezer, Gul' Dan, Palpatine, Shishio.
Best villains in my opinion
And Thanos
I understand that this is just part of the game mechanics since this game is 1 vs 1, but I can't help but think how at 2:54 Sindel suggests attacking Shang Tsung together, but Shao Kahn makes a gesture like "Stay here" and goes into the fight alone. Shao didn't mind for the entire chapter if Sindel wanted to fight Geras/Kessie/Johnny/Kung Lao, but not this time. I can't help but think he's protective of her. I think Shao understood that Shang Tsung with the crown is now quite dangerous, so he went into battle first.
Goes to show you evil can not work with evil because they don’t have the same agenda
???????????????
Angel Delgado every movie/video games when villains team up they always turn on each other
@@solomonhunter9649 he's too dumb to understand it
@@frost3193 facts it’s obvious
This Shang Tsung is absolutely perfect.
Have a nice day.
Shao Khan finally got what he what's coming to him
No, otherwise he would have won
Shao Khan deserved to win
@@MrVictor1227 I don't think so
@@Angelwheel oh but I do
@@scorpionx5910 and let him take over like in the original time line
The character expression of shang Tsung is so well done. It like a movie. Perfect.
God it was so satisfying seeing Shang Tsung get back at them
I can already imagine that the next's MK story will be shao khan, sindel and millena striving to revive from underworld to life
Watching Shang Tsung literally drain the life out of that unholy mockery that Netherrealm calls Sindel was WAY more satisfying than it should’ve been.
Here’s hoping she doesn’t return for MK12. Or ever.
If she does return, bring back the OG version of her and not this new bitch of a retcon
Unfortunately she's back.
Fortunately, her personality has improved much better.
@@TheNadroj10The Good Sindel is already back and she’s in The New Era Timeline and she now has two daughters that are named Kitana and Mileena. She’s also married to King Jarod and also King Jarod got killed by someone else and also Sindel isn’t married to Shao Khan in any way. Shao Khan is now a Stepphenwolf type Character now because he fights with a Axe and not a Hammer this time.
@@jocelantonettetenoc5996But then Sindel got killed by Twindel
5:04 that's how Shang looked like after Liu beat him in the first movie
Shang Tsung is a sorcerer cruel , heartless and inhuman .
But in final fighting match , Shang Tsung has a "little kindness" , he give Kronika a chance live . If Kronika agree become "serve" of Shang Tsung , and she will have "good place" in New Era of Shang Tsung .
Although in soul of Shang Tsung , part good is too little compare with "part cruel" .
1:44 SHAZAM!
It’s so satisfying when Shang kills them
I find it funny and ironic how kung lao got his necked snapped twice lol
I really enjoyed what the did with shang tsun. Really dived into the evil he posses during such an critical point.
One of the few redeeming parts of Aftermath.
Shao Kahn got pussified, Sindel got retconned and wholly assassinated as a character and Kronika was pulled straight out of the writers' asses and made into the quasi big bad of the series without ever having to earn it.
Only Shang Tsung remained consistent and true to himself, and yet he got backstabbed and killed off in MK9. All things considered, they all deserved to have their asses kicked by him.
4:48 Kitana: Thanks, Shang Tsung.
i truly love that shang tsung snaps revenant kung lao's neck the way he did to liu kang in deadly alliance
(Sighs in relief), I've always find it Cathartic when Shang Tsung drains their souls, thus, killing them permanently. Sindel gets what she deserves (and Shao Kahn, too), for bringing such atrocities and mayhem. Hopefully she WON'T be in Mortal Kombat 12 and more.
Nrs ruined her character by making her into genric evil empress with none of the same character traits she is basically a new character wearing her skin watch 4snake videos for more information if you like
@@kitty-danger thanks for the tip
@@quiet-spirit478 welcome
Shao Kahn is the main antagonist of the Mortal Kombat games and he also serves as the final boss of the games.
Sindel and Shao Khan had their deserved end. Shang Tsung has a personality identical to the villain Lopan in the adventurous film of Big Trouble in Little China.
Well, Shao Khan should have kinda seen it coming!
First rule of the evil overlord: NEVER have underlings that can destroy you with ease if they wanted, and you lack means to prevent it.
Because then what happens if they gain godhood and decide they're underlings no more?
Luckily for him, Shao Khan is a strict observer of the second rule of the evil overlord: be too much of an ego maniac that is blind to obvious weaknesses.
I really hope Reiko will make his triumphant return and be the next main villain in MK12.
Mortal Kombat comendment number 9 thou shall not mention lame character like Reiko
braveheartcrew That’s your opinion. End of story.
We will see him in mortal kombat movie 2021
I hope they make him great not pawn like comics
runza123 No even better Onaga
You know who’d be an even better villain?
Hsu Hao
Crazy how Shang Tsung offered Shao Kahn a chance too work for him. After all Shao Kahn did too him. Shows Shang Tsung had some respect for him.
Too bad Shao did not feel the same.
I still say they did Sindel backwards. Making her look good as a villain but scary as a hero. As far as appearances go. I truly believed she was done a justice in her resurrection until she sided with Shang Tsung. They needed her power to stop Centrion and help save the future. Then she could have restored Edenia. That would have been a satisfying storyline for me.
Yeah as 4snake said a subversion of a subversion is playing it straight
That swing @1:33 was LEGENDARY 🤣🤣🤣
See Shao Kahn being defeated in almost every fight in MK11 was disgraceful... I miss MK9 old days when the people of earth literally needed the power of ancients gods to have a chance against Shao Khan, in MK11 who sucks is Shao Khan instead of him saying that line
I love when the villains betrays and fight each others.
What know right Villains vs Villains that’s pretty much what it is.
I can imagine what Kronika's thinking right now before Shang Tsung consumes her soul, *"I should have expected that from a deceitful fool such as yourself, Sorcerer! A fool who betrayed his own masters!"*
That was a pretty good intro before the fight. Ironic we see his face but he portrait Meshima. Well done CGI!

The award for "Most Likely Betrayal Ever"
Me at 2:00: KILL HERRRR
Me at 2:15: Mkay, KILL THEM TOO
Me after all that: unexpected, but okay
Welp, they both deserved it, for all the did, and Kronika? Oh well she deserved it, for trying to do that
Mr. tagawa is such a great actor.
He was the perfect role for shang tsung
You know villian dying is what haters and fans both like to see
Wrong
Kabal and Sindel is my favourite characters from Mortal Kombat series ever!
I like how Shang turns snidely,shape khan , and liu king in the bad ending to Martians
When even Shao Kahn calls you out for being drunk on power, you've either went to far or he's a hypocrite lol.
I would have loved if we had gotten a Sindel and Shao Kong ending.
same
The first thing i thought of when i saw the thumbnail was "look at Sindel's strong ass teeth." How are they not broken from all the punches?
Nobody:
Shang Tsung in Aftermath: 😏
0:00 Shang Tsung's takedown of that goon is just so satisfying idk why
Beating Shao Kahn after being his bitch for over a century must've been so cathartic
They made sindel such a unlikeable character I have no idea why they would change a character like that.
Shang Tsung morphs into any character in the game
Kronika always reminds me of Tilda Swinton.
Shang tsung is one of my favourite characters in this game
What is disturbing hilarious is that Shang Tsung quickly switches up on Shao Kahn & Sindel aside from the fact that Netherrealm Studios completely messed up her Redemption character development but that's besides the point as TH-cam user Dashie would say.
In case you're wondering I'm a fan of Mortal Kombat character Sheeva to which I didn't know she was a mom who lost her kids as first species of people became kinda like us Americans if given too much money.
If I was on the writing staff of Netherrealm Studios while making Mortal Kombat 11, I would stress to Ed boon & the writing staff not to make Sindel even more unlikable character by throwing her Redemption character development out the window after the previous Mortal Kombat game.
Instead Sindel would be temporarily a lovable side character trying to fix her relationship with her daughter Katana. Then followed by her becoming a reliable ally for Earthrealm Lu Kang & them go pick up to go save everyone from whatever the threat may be.
Raiden wouldn't be constantly blindly loyal to the Elder gods who can care less about whatever happens in the Mortal Kombat universe, the blood-oath between Sindel & Sheeva would be paid through motherhood friendship.
Everything else with Mortal Kombat 11 is fine, is just that my main issue with it is that Sindel is written poorly.
i just bought this game a week ago and this popped up on my home screen. great
I knew Shang Tsung was strong, but I think he's more of a sorcerer and magic kind of guy, not whooping and besting Kung Lao with martial arts
He was mortal Kombat champion for centuries until he was bested by the great Kung lao I don't doubt he picked up big time martial arts
Personally I hated how they changed sindel origin and made her into nothing but a power hungery b#%tch rather than a mother that was brainwashed into being loyal to an evil ruler that later got saved by her daughter's love however
I did love how they made Shang tsung a cunning and powerful villian in this one bring back justice to such a cool character and even gave him a possible ending.
Shang Tsung's green magic is a blizzard's "Fel magic !!. Anyone who knows warcraft will understand : ))))
Just watch the movie Warcraft .. This is Gul'dan's
Spell
I love how they brought back the "shit talking" Khan from the original 2nd.
Aftermath did the villains RIGHT!
Shang Tsung was not about to let history repeat itself
