I’ve seen and heard people debate their favorite actor for Scorpion, Sub-Zero, Shao Kahn, etc. Never once have I heard anyone argue over who is the best Shang Tsung. That’s because there really is no debate
Well, that's what it is. Thanks for clarification. I thought Shang Lao really was his brother that was mentioned during some previous MK games. Wonder if they ever use this in the future and introduce Snag Tsung's brother...
I always wanted the devs to release something more about Shang Tsung's past. I know MK Conquest kinda tackled a bit of it, like, we learned his sifu's name was "Master Cho" and he used to bang a fellow sorceress called "Omegis", but we still never got to learn real well about his story, i.e. whoever were his parents or siblings, or why exactly was he cursed to become a soulsucker, or how did he drop by at Shao Kahn's court and become the imperial sorcerer just like that?
One of my favorite things about his intros LOL Since everyone is always moving, you never get the chance to compare. It makes sense, but I didn't realise how short people like Cassie and Jacqui were.
My god...he's wearing the long coat from the movie, makes reference to an almost completely forgotten character from the movie (Master Boyd) and even references the 'dress' Sonya was made to wear in the movie. God NRS, mad respect for the attention the smallest details.
Shao Kahn: "Come, Sindel awaits." Shang Tsung: "Why, so you can transfer her my power?" Shao Kahn: "Where would you get that idea?" Shang Tsung: "Mortal Kombat (2011), that's where."
I think Shang Tsung was resurrected (already hinted in Ermac's MKX ending) so he already knows what happened. And Shao Kahn's response becomes even funnier when you realize he really has no idea about it, as it's quite obvious that he was brought from before Sindel was empowered.
@@xxplick Well, in the previous time line, ShangTsung and Quan Chi formed the Deadly Alliance to kill Shao Khan and Lui Kang. It devolved into a final battle between the the two sorcerers and Raiden. Raiden was defeated, but then the two turned on each other. Onaga awoke, and in desperation, Shang Tsung, Quan Chi and Raiden untied their power to stop him, but they barely even annoyed him. Hell, even Shao Khan resorted to poisoning Onaga because even he was afraid to fight him one on one. Point being, Onaga is one of the biggest threats to the Realms and waking him up is something even the other villains would want to avoid.
His father, too - 'sonuvabitch had it coming.' Makes me wonder at what age he shot him. The way Erron speaks of his mother in the present tense makes it sound like she's still alive and giving hell. But then one of his intros with Cassie also from MK11 makes it sound like his mother's been dead for a long time. 'My Ma would've loved you,' Cassie's reply 'Aww, sounds like you miss her bunches' followed up by Erron's 'I hated Ma.' Erron's change of tense when talking about his mother is odd - unless the exchange with Shang Tsung is meant jokingly, i.e. Erron can't get a break from his mother even in death - which I prefer as he's still the supernaturally long-lived Old West gunslinger instead of some modern day marksman.
@@ep614 He probably has a little PTSD from his mom beating him all those years. Remember, he was taught to fight back. He probably got the "be a man" treatment too.
@@jennifercorbett8640 Yeah nothing against Richard Epcar but his Joker is lacking also the fact that the Joker is even in this game to begin with when he's already in Injustice 1 and 2 and most likely will be in 3 as well makes my blood boil. The dude isn't even a fighter in a game where pretty much every character is a trained martial artist with decades of experience if not centuries in the case of Raiden , Shang Tsung and others I've likely forgotten about. He sticks out like a sore thumb and has no place in a game like this .
Shang Tsung: I have a Dress your size, it would look good on you girl. Sonya: *ARE YOU OUT OF YOUR DAMN MIND* Shang Tsung: Hehehe what happens in my island stays on my island.
Tagawa IS Shang. I can’t think of anyone who could replace him as that character. Sinister to the bone, calm, and with an almighty disposition. Legendary actor.
I like how they incorporated Shang Tsung's obsession over Sonya from the movie into the game. A bit of a retcon I'm sure but it's a nice touch considering. :)
Raiden: Once again you betrayed Earthrealm Shang Tsung: Are you surprised, Raiden Raiden: Only that it took you so long Damn, Raiden hit him with that heat of lightning
Too bad they didn't include: Liu Kang: "All those souls and you still don't have one of your own. I pity you, sorcerer". Shang Tsung: "Save your pity for the weak". Liu Kang: "Surrender. It's over".
The cetrion line would go: C: All those souls and you still have none of your own. ST: Save your pity for the weak, Cetrion. C: You are beyond pity, sorcerer.
My favorite sinister quotes from Shang Tsung: “Your soul is mine!” “Do Tarkartans have souls?” “ I will torment you for eternity.”; “And now taste for the things to come.” “Liu Kang’s soul will be mind, Raiden.” “When you die, Kitana will be unprotected.” ;”Your concern for her is a weakness.” “Poor Kung Lao. Always second best.” “I was deadly long before I can controlled them.” “A pity you will never be his (Shao Kahn) daughter.” “You condemned your hive for extinction.” “You are neither a god nor Khan.” ; “My next victim.” “Do you not tired of the endless cycle.”
Shang Tsung: returning to my service, Scorpion? Scorpion: address me as Hanzo Hasashi Shang Tsung: I like you better as Scorpion. Gotta love the fact that Shang Tsung is a simple man.
Sheesh, guys, if you think about it, "Tsung" is pronounced as "Soon." And even if I'm still wrong, there are little differences between the word pronunciation.
I wish they did this one related from the movie. Liu Kang: - "All those souls and you still don't have one of your own, I pity you." Shang Tsung: - "Save your pity for the weak" Liu Kang: - "Surrender it's over"
There's something about Shang Tsung's voice in this game that fits so well, despite it being so creepily calm and collected. Soft and yet... intimidating. Sonya's voice actor should take a few notes.
Master Boyd!
He also murdered Liu Kang’s brother Chan.
I can't believe (and yet definitely believe) that Ed Boon added in a Pre-Mortal Kombat reference with Shang Lao.
Who's Master Boyd?

1:14 Goddamn, Shao Kahn. That's employee of the month material right there. How strict are you?
😂😂😂😂
And yet he keeps Baraka and reptile around and all they do is get their ass kicked
@@blastfromdass4310 he don't know what he wants but it's probably for amusement with them
@@blastfromdass4310 Baraka and Reptile is the Rocksteady & Bebop to Shao's Shredder
triplemojo 3 Probably a lack of good henchmen
Kitana: Cloning me was your worst mistake
Me: The MK community would beg to differ.
Especially Mileena's fans
@@darkemperortheobscureone694.... That WAS referring to Mileena.
Joker- EXCEPT YOU HAD TO EXPLAIN THE JOKE! IF YOU HAVE TO EXPLAIN THE JOKE IT'S NO LONGER FUNNY!!!
@@VideoGameMasters09 😑... Oh. My bad.
16:43 - 16:46 Holy shit! They were hinting at Aftermath!
Also at 12:30
And 2:20
*”mileena was a masterpiece.”*
wow ;-;
I disagree with that statement. No, Mileena was an abomination, not a masterpiece.
GamingFilms Brother She was both
@@ksoundkaiju9256 I disagree with that statement, but whatever floats your vote.
@Viper Hareous To Shang Tsung she may be, but not to me. Like I said before, whatever floats your vote. 😏😏
Actually...she was. You see dem curves????
Cary Hiroyuki Tagawa will always be the best shang tsung
The only
He’s not the best Shang Tsung. He IS Shang Tsung!!!
EvilEd89 Agree
Robin Shou needs to return as well
His sinister voice is what I love this Shang Tsung better then other one from MK9.
I like how they referenced Shang Tsung’s original name, Shang Lao.
They turned that into his brother's name
That movie reference from when Sonya wore that dress after she was captured 😂
Wow, is that right? i thought he had just gone mad for sonya or something
@@knowwe Oh, that was in the 1995 movie...
Tsung: "Men like you serve men like me."
Kabal: "I don't bow, courtesy, or give a shit!"
My favorite intro ever in this game!
But Kabals has always been Kanos bitch.
I am absolutely blown away of how they were able to recreate his look from the first movie!! They did a phenomenal job!
Welcome back to Kombat arena Cary-Hiroyuki Tagawa!
The only Japanese Mortal Kombat actor
👍👍
@Diego Silerio He was half Japanese-American and half Russian.
😱😱 😱
Nice
👍👍
My favorite sinister quotes from Shang Tsung:
“Your soul is mine!”
“Do Tarkartans have souls?”
“ I will torment you for eternity.”; “And now taste for the things to come.”
“Liu Kang’s soul will be mind, Raiden.”
“When you die, Kitana will be unprotected.” ;”Your concern for her is a weakness.”
“Poor Kung Lao. Always second best.”
“I was deadly long before I can controlled them.”
“A pity you will never be his (Shao Kahn) daughter.”
“You condemned your hive for extinction.”
“You are neither a god nor Khan.” ; “My next victim.”
“Do you not tired of the endless cycle.”

And every time you hear soul you have to drink a shot of whisky.
@@mastadon1154
You trying to free our souls for Shang Tsung?
Shang Tsung: returning to my service, Scorpion?
Scorpion: address me as Hanzo Hasashi
Shang Tsung: I like you better as Scorpion.
Gotta love the fact that Shang Tsung is a simple man.
20:40 "An invisible hand must guide Outworld."
"Your hand, Shang Tsung?"
"No, the free market."
you should rename yourself Adam Smith
Shang I want a divorce.
Shang Tsung: Divorce... hehehehe.
25:17 this whole conversation is a Rocky Horror Picture Show reference
I am so glad I am not the only one who noticed
misterjakester I screamed 😂😂
At least Shang Tsung is a man of good taste
I was wondering who else caught it
I was rather disappointed that I had to scroll as much as I did before someone mentioned Rocky Horror. C'mon people!
shang tsung:
*says anything*
people in comments:
iS tHaT a MoViE rEfErEnCe?
Shang Tsung: makes callback to Mortal Kombat movie
Redditors: lOL h COuLD saY ANyTHINg and yOUd sAY iT MovIE!!!!!1!1!1!!1!1!!!1!1
Well...yeah. His very presence is a reference to the 1995 movie.
I love that they got Mr. Tagawa to reprise his role as Shang Tsung. He really does it so well.
Cary-Hiroyuki Tagawa will always be *THE* Shang Tsung!
18:50 Think Kung Lao just unknowingly admitted to being a failure.
Kung lao has been bamboozled
Shang Tsung: "Over a millennium I failed you twice."
Shao Kahn: "3 times with Kotal still alive!"
"kano pissing"
"Shang Tsung:you have dignity or manners, Kano."
that was perfect
0:01 What a TWIST. Who knew Shang Tsung was Shang Tsung the whole time!
5:32 I wanna see the design
Inb4 it's the MK9 design
MingNexus or in the old movie
It was in the MK Movie. Johnny praised her for wearing it.
Cary-Hiroyuki Tagawa as the real Mandarin in an Iron man movie would have been godly
Hell yeah it would’ve!
Too bad its never going to happen now considering...
Han Yin considering what?
@@drcrocreviews Well Mandarin's opponent is kind of very dead.
Han Yin oh yeah.
everyone : shang tsung
sonya : shang soon
I blame Rhonda for that one.
@@TySama0 Frsot said it too
I blame whoever that voice actress is, as well.
Sheesh, guys, if you think about it, "Tsung" is pronounced as "Soon." And even if I'm still wrong, there are little differences between the word pronunciation.
FundamentalChristian 666 just more cucks who are butthurt about Ronda Rousey
"You lack vision, Sub-Zero."
Who else got the MK Deception reference?
I can’t get enough of his voice, Cary-Hiroyuki Tagawa’s like the Asian Morgan Freeman
11:34 damn Shang Tsung standing up for Mileena is cute as hell
@@notamimic7253 either way, he ain't wrong
"I worked really hard on her."
He refused to let anyone bash his hard work
I wish they did this one related from the movie.
Liu Kang: - "All those souls and you still don't have one of your own, I pity you."
Shang Tsung: - "Save your pity for the weak"
Liu Kang: - "Surrender it's over"
They did plan to use that, but you would have needed the *ORIGINAL* Liu Kang for that line to work...
@@juliobrian4757 I agree
There's something about Shang Tsung's voice in this game that fits so well, despite it being so creepily calm and collected. Soft and yet... intimidating.
Sonya's voice actor should take a few notes.
She can't... too creeped out by Shangys' advances towards her.
@@LadyCoyKoiShang’s rizz is irresistible
Nobody:
Shang Tsung’s intro: *HAHAHA*
"Kronika is the best villain of MK!"
Shang Tsung:
4:46
3:57 OH SNAP Shang tsung made it personal for Johhny cage!
That's a star wars empire strikes back reference
@@ZzIAmNOTLegendzZ oh I didn't know that
@@paulkdragon remember when Luke blames Vader for killing his father, right before the "I am your father" line
@@ZzIAmNOTLegendzZ oh yeah now I remember
That is refference to the movie Mortal Kombat not Star Wars
Shang Tsung: "I will swallow your soul"
Ash: *Loads shotgun* "Swallow this"
Shang Tsung: "Ugh, you remind me of another Hollywood actor"
This comment is quite ironic, considering that Ash Williams could actually end up being one of the DLC characters in this game.
@@GamerX51 If this is the exact quote in the game, I deserve a spot on the writing team at Netherrealm
Johnny cage: I beat Shinnok.
Everybody: Sure you did cage.
“A man’s greed is like a snake who wants to swallow an elephant.” -Chinese Proverb.
I love how Shang Tsung doesn’t even mock liu kang that much because liu always gives him the work 😂
_I'll turn you fifty shades of black and blue._
I can't belive you done this NetherRealm Studios.
Shang Tsung: “You are neither god, nor Kahn”
Kotal Kahn: “Then what am I Shang Tsung?”
Shang Tsung: “Trash Tier”
Just adding Cary-Hiroyuki Tagawa's voice and face to Shang Tsung alone has made him the coolest thing in MK 11
Once you realize that he is still an old man his interactions with Sonya becomes much more hilarious
