Tanya's KombatKast Stream June 1st!

Although I've never been a fan of Tanya, its the biggest mystery why she wasn't on the main roster. Especially with a revamp this good. That and Fujin's exclusion are just insane.
 
My favourite is still 'Kung Lao, where have you been?'

Oh hey, were you hoping for a chapter or two on that? Nope, sorry, that cutscene's not even from Story mode, it's just a generic character intro. See you in MK11. GG WP NRS.

The trailers for this game had more impact than the full story, and the roster is far too safe. Fujin? Tanya? Rain? Anyone important to the story? No, have some ****ing zombies, but not Smoke 'cuz he's just an NPC. Not impressed. That said, the gameplay is obviously very good, and it's still the best game I've played in quite some time.

Shinnok's a great character and a fun villain, but he'll always be underwhelming as a boss.

Yup.
Agreed 100%.
Just another f***ing Boon troll move with Kung Lao.

"Kung Lao, where have you been?"
His reply to Raiden should have been "I'm in hell, where I still reside, thanks to you."
As much as I disliked the thought of the dead coming back, for a little while back then I was like "Oh, they're going to explain how he comes back to being alive. I wonder what they have planned."
Nope.
Human Kung Lao, human Liu Kang and human Kitana are all fodder / non-canon, so none of NRS future trailers can ever be trusted.
From now on, I will know not to ever trust any of the future trailers for any future MK game or sequel, because it could be filled with a bunch of non-canon story fodder stuff that will never actually even happen or appear in the game.

Shinnok has always given me the feminine impression. Some of the moves that he performs seem so delicate and such.

And he also has that b!tch slap in his x-ray that always kills my insides every time I see it.
 
He kind of has a Maleficent look to him in MKX, but I'll take that look any day over MK4 clown Shinnok.

His head piece in his primary costume looks dumb. He looks good from the neck up in his alt. I prefer MK4 Shinnok.

Shinnok even looked better in MK9.
