That is perplexing.
Shang Tsung pledged his soul to Shao Kahn.
If Kahn is dead, does this mean he is free?
I would LOVE to see a good Shang Tsung.
His bio in Armageddon suggests that this agreement is binding, even beyond death. I do think a good Shang Tsung would be awesome, though. This brings up another question: since Shang Tsung is dead and Kenshi wishes to slay him to avenge the souls Tsung consumed, what direction will they take with Kenshi now?
I'm afraid for Sektor. If you remember his ending, his father warns him of the power.
Sektor doesn't listen and takes the amulet anyway, this will hold consequences for him no doubt
I don't know if Sektor will suffer any consequences from taking the Dragon Medallion. The consequence the Grand Master was referring to is that the Dragon Medallion contains the souls of all the previous grandmaster who were slain. The more souls contained in the Medallion, the more powerful the Medallion becomes and ultimately the person wearing the Medallion (the Medallion combines the powers of the slain grandmasters and the wearer's own). Sektor is a soulless cyborg, so I'm not sure he will be affected by that if/when he is slain.
If they do plan to solve the Sub-Zero story, I say either:
A. Have Noob become purified when he hit the soulnado, have Saibot become the Noob character.
Eh, can't really see Noob good in any situation. I'm still thinking the Soulnado will split Bi-Han and Noob, or create a new entity, as seen in Noob's Armageddon ending.
B. Have Sub-Zero's father come into play, he is a FULL cyromancer, would be interesting to see how his ice moves look.
He could also have a grudge against the Lin Kuei for taking his sons.
I like this idea, but isn't Sub-Zero's father dead? I only say this because they abducted Kuai Liang and Bi-Han as children, and Sub-Zero's ending said that "the Lin Kuei were ultimately responsible for the deaths of both Sub-Zero's and Scorpion's families."
I hope Johnny doesn't have the powers in his ending, he looked more Neo-y and less of a funny guy.
Johnny without comedy is like Goro with 2 arms.
You don't want Johnny Cage to become more powerful? And his MK9 look could be his alt in MK10.
Here's my take on the amulet situation:
Maybe Quan Chi has the amulet, which makes him powerful, but has the tattoos that Shinnok put on him to control him.
That is why he doesn't care he has the amulet, he will just take it when he is able to come to Earthrealm.
I think the tattoos are just the spells that Quan Chi has mastered over the years, or just there aesthetically to make him look cooler. :razz:
Shujinko is not a normal man. Raiden will hopefully see his and Kai's potential and recruit them.
If not Raiden then Fujin.
Agreed.
Ed Boon said fan favorites will come back. Maybe that means Liu, maybe it doesn't.
They gotta bring Cyber Subby, Kitana, Sindel, Jax and Jade back at least. I have a feeling Nightwolf, Kung Lao, Kabal and Stryker will stay dead.
