If I had to pick someone to bring back it'd be Havik of course, but I want to see some new faces. Bring out the original characters, Ed.

Yeah that's just a generic monk, you can see another generic-looking monk stepping out of the portal behind Raiden, they just teleporting with the homies for some reason

if they're still going by the real ancient lore, the tournament is basically a necessity to keep an ancient supergod from eating the universe. Sure there may be some other way to go about it, but people are going to fight anyway, might as well control when and how.

Also loving lol @ God Liu Kang smugly going "Your Earthrealm champion is new timeline Raiden" to new timeline Shao Kahn

there has to be a small part of him that's like "yeah now you get to fight him every year now, idiot. how does it feel."

Babe Magnet

no there's like a super special one that got torn apart because he was being an rear end in a top hat, and the realms were made out of his body or something. Liu Kang is like a tier below. He's top dog now, but part of the job of the elder gods is to make sure homie doesn't reform and start tearing poo poo up again. The tournament is supposed to keep everyone from outright invading each other and merging all the realms back into one again, and it seems to work pretty well outside of the times we're looking directly at it lol

Babe Magnet
Jun 2, 2008

It's good to remember that at the end of the day Liu Kang isn't a normal god, he's a human who is infused with the powers of extremely powerful entities. He's still going to make Human Mistakes, which will also be infused with the powers of extrmely powerful entities lol

If I were Time/Fire God Liu Kang, I'd just not allow merging realms under any circumstances. None of this cutesy "Ohhhhhhhkay, if you can win TEN tournaments in a row, then you get a little treat"

yeah well that's why he is and you're not

I like that idea, it lines up with the idea that Shang Tsung is being a dickhead from another dimension again

also kombat kast is up

sareena kameo can summon a puddle that drains the opponent's super meter lol

sindel's got a special that makes kameo abilities have shorter cooldowns. If you EX it, it modifies the opponent's kameo, and if they try and break, it cancels it out and pops the opponent up lmao.

she has another special that, with a good enough read, locks out the opponent's kameo for a bit. With an EX you straight up steal the kameo and you get a use of one of their abilities.

yeah sindel looks tight

oh they're doing rain

his standing 4 is the round-the-world kick. holding it gives you a second hit that lets you combo

lmao he's got a chargable projectile, and an anti-air projectile, and can EX the anti-air to pop up for combos, and also a water bubble he can set up anywhere (or onto himself with an EX) that eats projectiles. this dude's gonna be a problem.

he can set up portals to teleport through. like an entry and an exit

also he has a ground trap that pop ups

stryker kameo can pop in behind your opponent and handcuff them (which is a reset) lmao

shao stance lasts about 7-8 seconds before it automatically teleports back into his hands. Gives him different normals, and his specials and throw change

he has a buff again

motaro kameo teleport can be used to cancel out of moves with long recovery for more combo opportunities

The story is so freaking stupid that you kind of have to love it. When all the characters are practically winking at the camera as they say the titles of the previous MK games in all their dialogue you can’t help but laugh.

yeah liu kang telling raiden or whoever that he "would NEVER send someone into mortal kombat" got a big laugh from us

if you want a pretty MK-aligned martial arts movie, 2018's The Night Comes For Us is really loving good and brutal as hell. It's almost like martial arts/slasher horror combo, it's tight.
