Shujinko

Looks like this won't be a popular opinion on this thread, but Shujinko and Konquest mode suck balls. I don't want to see them return in any capacity whatsoever and I take comfort from the hints being dropped that the story of MKX will not be retreading the old ground of MK:DA - MK:A. Boon is consistently alluding to a new narrative this time, which sounds like it's designed to distance itself from those awful, awful plots and characters from that era.

Shujinko's quest, like Taven's after him, was just a poorly executed distraction for players. It tried to replace missing quality with more quantity. 'Yeah, let's throw in chess kombat and puzzle kombat too! Maybe that will make people forget that this storyline is bullsh!t.'

All they had was a villain, but unfortunately his origin story was some unintelligible fever dream desperately stitched together just to add more content to the game. Maybe the team had to join Warner Bros before it had the resources to give us MK 2011 and Injustice? I don't know, but it was definitely a change for the better IMO.

Keep in mind that i don't want a 1:1 remake of the 3D era,i want them to filter 10% of the elements from these games and add them on the NEW game with a NEW story.From DA, Boraicho and Nitara would be welcomed,with a serious revamp of course.From D,aside from Shujinko i would only miss Havik and Hotaru.A lot of arenas from these games can be reused too.
 
I also grew up playing Mortal Kombat Deception konquest mode, and warmed up to Shujinko. I'd like to see him in Mortal Kombat X, if not as a selectable fighter, at least make a cameo appearance in the story mode.
 
He is my favorite Mortal Kombatant as well! He could have like an all fighting style variation he knows everybodys, one where he uses nothing but special attack type moves, or one where onaga posesses his body instead of giving him the copy power and deceiving him. His fatality can he his ending blast from deception where he gathers the fighting powers he copied and blows them up or shatters them
 
I hope he comes back He, was my fav in MKD he can replace Shang Stung, gameplay wise for MKX since I doubt Shang will return and he was my main and Fav since his EX combos were just to much fun to pull off and since Shujinko is basically The good version of Shang this would make sense...I dont know what do you guys think?

I never made this connection of Jinko with Tsung.I was thinking one of his variations to have heavy use of the double sword,the other would be copycat Jinko,but done differently.He would copy the move,but they are weaker than in the original,so he need to combine 2 moves to a efficient one.Like Raiden's lightning combined with Rain's water,things like that.
Still not sure about the third variation. :)
 
If he is back, I hope he comes back with the same voice from Deception. It was so "old fool", just like him.

About variations, the main special moves are repeated to all styles. He would use them anyway.
