Hanzo Hasashi in MK9, anyone? Inb4 wouldn't work.

Would you support a free Hanzo Hasashi skin for Scorpion?

Trolling You For Fun & Profit
Ok, so 1st thread. What would you guys think of a human Scorpion in MK9 via DLC skin? Ed Boon has already stated that they don't own the name Hanzo Hasashi, but they could still make the skin. It worked with human cyrax and sektor (they changed the animatics to coordinate properly), So why or why not? Be specific in your reasoning and leave nothing out. A simple yes or no is not nearly enough.

I use his MK1 Klassic as my main, but I do love his alt. as well. The more I think about it, the more I think we, the fans, deserve a Human Scorpion skin. Especially considering the hype The MK:Legacy episode Hanzo was in. It would totally work
 
No.

Why not?

Because I hate when they dont respect the character's basic concet, even if its in an alt, same applies to unmasked Sub-Zero, thats not Sub-Zero. If they bring back unmasked SZ and then they come with a human Scorpion, then why dont do they make brunette Sonya? masked Johnny Cage with cape? Baraka without teeth? White Jax? Winged reptile?

I think the character's basic concept must be respected, always.

Scorpion is a a hellraised yellow ninja in quest for revenge, not a human, he was once but not as a character, just as a part of his background story nothing more.

That's my 2 cents.

Hahaha, I knew you wouldn't go for it, Fox. We cool though, I know your a purist and like your MK un-f*cked with. Respectable opinions, as usual.

Right, right. Although we share different opinions alot of topics, I like how you were specific in your reasoning. I do think it would be very interesting to see, even if it was a fan-made Hanzo Hasashi "vs" picture.
 
You know what, I like that idea. I'm surprised it hasn't been mentioned before. We've never really seen the the un-undead version of Scorpion in an MK game, and the hoodless, maskless version of his character from the MKL series would be a perfect representation of that.

Obviously they'd need to change the way he does certain moves, so his balancing would be a bit different, but considering the fact that they did it for Sektor and Cyrax, it's totally feasible. Even his toasty fatality could be reworked using that whole circus fire breathing concept.
 
Personally I'm tired of Scorpion and all of the noobs who play as him so I wouldn't want Hanzo, but I know a lot of people would like it so I guess he could be in.

Agreed 111%. I didn't even think how his toasty fatality could've worked, but the fire-breathing concept could work as well. I can't help but think Boon has already thought of this (seeing how Scorpion is his favorite) but maybe not. I'd love to see it done.

I feel your pain, brother. It's every match I face a Scorpion or Noob Saibot, and it's pretty lame because Noob has been my favorite since MK:Trilogy and now I can't seem to play as him anymore. But I think the Hanzo skin could work for the best.

Yeah I'd love to see it. The only sticking point would be the Toasty Fatality as mentioned earlier.
 
I don't know what Hanzo Hasashi would look like. A plain yellow ninja (MK2?) or his current mk9 model without a mask?
If its like his costume in Legacy, that would be cool.

I think the mk1 classic is basically Hanzo.

I see his MK1 as his throwback. I'm talking a human, no mask. Kinda like Hanzo in MK:legacy. The possibilites are crazy.

That's just it, we don't know what it would look like. I was very pleased on human cyrax and sektor and Scorpion could turn out better than they did. The legacy costume could work, too. But it could be totally original, as well.

It's pointless to me. How should such Hanzo look like? He would be the same as Scorpion except human eyes or just some umasked man. He's unworthy becoming another skin.

BTW he has already appeared in MKM:S-Z:

"How should such Hanzo look like"? Well, sir, that is in the air. He could end up looking totally awesome. And him appearing Mythologies has nothing to do with this.. that was forever ago and most people don't even know about that. I'm saying a completely new concept, new attire, unmasked, same moveset (obviously) but with different animatics.

I'm not against it. But considering Ed denied possibillity of playing unscarred Kabal, I think he will say to Hanzo as well.

I was disappointed when Kabal's second costume wasn't his unburnt form. Cyrax and Sektor have the best alternates in the game in my opinion, as they are so different. So I would love a human Scorpion as well.
