MK Legacy Discussion

I'm confused about who Quan Chi is talking to. He says to the person he will help him find Sub Zero, but it looks like he is talking to Sub zero. It's definitely not Scorpion. Their mask has ice on it and his clothes arent yellow.

I think it isn't Sub-Zero. He says "represent NR"

Aside from that, the reason his costume looks so dark is probably because they're depicting NR as purgatory.

Spoiler:
Scorpion could be dead (there is also a part where SZ steps on a frozen head) and Quan Chi is most likely resurrecting him for Mortal Kombat :D
 
Whoops, I meant to say not Sub-Zero. [or isn't Sub-Zero]

I think it is Scorpion just the depiction of NR has drained the color out of his clothes. Which is an old depiction [a colorless realm of sorts]

Edit: That would explain why his costume is so dark compared to standard Scorpion's costume.
 
Thanks mrodz and Reptikahn that makes sense. I feel like they are pushing for people to be rooting for Scorpion and are turning Sub Zero into the bad guy.

Spoiler:
well, sub-zero DID kill Scorpion's entire family lol

:D
 
Well technically in the original timeline:

Spoiler:
Sub-Zero [Elder] was killed by Scorpion leading him to being Noob. The only reason he became Noob was his soul was corrupted. So Elder Sub was bad in a way.


And you're certainly welcome.

@mrodz: that was Quan Chi, Sub only killed Scorpion.

...d'oh! >.<
 
So, elder Sub Zero never had anything to do with Raiden and Liu Kang and them correct? Elder sz and Scorpion had their beef and that's all their story really was about? Then younger sz was good and teamed up with the good guys while also on his own search for Scorpion?

I'll explain it to the best of my abilities:

Spoiler:
Sub-Zero [Elder] was one of the top assassins of the Lin Kuei, within helping Quan Chi obtain the magical amulet of Shinnok, Sub-Zero [Elder] killed Scorpion [AKA Hanzo Hazashi]. Quan Chi came and killed Hanzo's family and clan [SR] and thus when Hanzo's soul departed to the NR, he became the vengeful specter Scorpion.

Later on to continue his manipulation of events, Quan Chi tricked Scorpion into believing Sub-Zero [Elder] killed his family and clan, orginally Scorpion was only going to defeat Sub-Zero in combat to take revenge for his death. [Not to kill Sub] However, after Quan Chi brought him back and manipulated him, his sole purpose was to take revenge for his family's/clan's killer. Elder sub.

Sub's goal for MK1 was to assassinate Shang Tsung for the Lin Kuei, however, Scorpion confronted him and murdered him.

Sub's [Elder] soul departed to the NR becoming Noob Saibot due to the corruption of his soul. Raiden told him that. [Though they weren't on good terms.]

MK2: Scorpion heard rumours that Sub-Zero had returned from the dead only to discover that Sub's younger brother had entered the tournament. [Although many people argue this was retconned it is officially unknown] thus he left in peace.

However, during Quan Chi's/Shnnok's take over in MK4: Sub-Zero [Younger] was the target of Scorpion as Quan Chi convinced him he was the true murderer of his family and clan. Thus after beating Sub-Zero, about to murder him, Quan Chi revealed he was the actual murderer. Using Shinnok's amulet to teleport Scorpion back to the NR and to finish off Sub-Zero was Quan Chi's goal however he overestimated Scorpion and Scorpion in a desperate move charged Quan Chi teleporting both to the NR where Scorpion hunted Quan Chi down.

--

Younger Sub-Zero is good, but most of his motivation is pride at best as can be seen by his MKDA/MKD bios. He didn't even fight against the DA, he let Kitana/etc. die. XD He's still good though.
 
Am I the only person who's ticked off about how they're presenting Mileena? She has a TINY scar on her face and that's it. I know they're fiddling about with the story a little bit, but being a Mileena fan one of the first things I thought when I saw Rebirth was how AWESOME Mileena would be if she was included in this series, given how Reptile and Baraka were designed and explained.

And now we have Kitana and Mileena sparring like it's a nod to that god-awful Elektra film. I understand that Mileena's reason to enter the tournament could be to prove she's better than Kitana because Kitana's prettier, that's *sort of* Mileena's deal anyway... but jeez... I wanted mahoosive teeth, face eating, and the whole hilarious moaning at inappropriate times Mileena. Meh.

Am I the only one who thinks Quan Chi was awesome?!
