Corrupted Shinnok

Do you guys know any streamers capable of beating MKX storymode on the very hard difficulty? I tried looking up a thread for this but didn't see one and I cannot make a thread myself due to new member restrictions. The few streamers that I watched attempted the max difficulty got completely destroyed in the first fight. I would really like to watch someone beat the MKX story on max diffculty. NetherRealm made the AIs an insane challenge this time around.
 
Wonder if someone hacked the game or used a cheat code to play as Corrupted Shinnok yet... whether online or offline...
 
He's a disappointing final boss, but you have to hand it to NRS for giving him some love. His fatality is awesome, and this is the first I've seen of him having brutalities, and it's great he does.
 
Man i think his win pose is so badass especially with the way the music ends and he just tosses the head..... Amazing boss
 
I had serious issues with Corrupted Shinnok. As soon as the fight would start he'd hit me with the beam beam thing and spam it non stop. Could never get a hit in. This lasted a good five or six matches before he finally stopped doing it.

Is he supposed to be MK's version of Satan or something?

Actually, he is. His backstory is directly based on the fall of Satan from the monotheistic Abrahamic religions. According to those religions, Satan was initially a high ranking archangel named Lucifer (another name still used to describe him) who wasn't satisfied with his status in Heaven and wanted to take over...much to God's chagrin...and was consequently banished to Hell as a result.

I will say that they redeemed Shinnok's sh!tty Mortal Kombat debut with this.

I do feel that the corrupted version of him should have been a little chunkier but that's really nothing to complain about. Although he is very easy, I still think they did a phenomenal job making him a better end boss than what he was during the fourth game.
 
MK9 bosses were harder only because they had this stupid armor around them, without it they were as easy as Shinnok is. I still think MK9 Shang Tsung is what final boss in MK should be - special attire, extra health, additional special moves.
In MKX Shinnok's case, his demon form should use all his regular specials from all 3 variations + that fire blast (thought the damage should be reduced), have double health and have harder AI. Can they patch this guy?
 
It wasn't so much that he was difficult but the fact that he was cheap with those spamming attacks. It also didn't help that they gave us the 2nd worst character to beat him with and that being cassie cage.
