Best Fatality in the game, who has it?

STB Sgt Reed

Online Warrior
Let's see, my favorites are

Both of Tremor's
Kenshi's sword spin one
Cassie's selfie one
Kung Lao's one where he pushes their head into the hat
Johnny's here's johnny
Sub's classic

Best probably goes to Tremor.

Liu Kang's throat one for me. I don't really enjoy fatalities that take a lot of time and/or effort. Obviously some of the longer ones are awesome, I just prefer the short and sweet ones.

Selfie. It's by far and away the best "modern" fatality. But Tremor takes a close second to me due to sheer number of brutalities and cool fatalities.

Damn, I have a lot but if I have to pick 1, my absolute favorite one is:

Kenshi: Tele-Copter. The only thing that annoys me is that it copies a little from Scorpion's face slice fatality. But I guess you need a starting point if you're going to shred somebody to little tiny bits and pieces of nothingness. That pose at the end is just perfect.


Other favorites:

-Kung Lao: buzzsaw
-Scorpion: face slice
-Subzero: chest-cold
-Kitana: 2 hands slice and fans to the face
-Tremor: summon 2 giant boulders and smash
-Predator: laser cannon
-Ermac: head lift
-Kung Lao: flower pot
-Kenshi: spine lift
-Subzero: bed of ice
-Jax: rib rip and head twister (so badass)
-Johnny: head bash


Favorite Klassic Fatalities remake:

-Kung Lao MK2 slice. They did this one so perfect. Arguably my old time favorite. I was so honored to have this one return and show off in the MKX engine.
-Scorpion klassic toasty. The flame effects look sick, but I wish the skeleton was burning instead of being so clean and white. MK9 did it right.
-Jax MK2 arm rip. Very well done. Also another of my old favorites.
-Mileena MK2 man eater. better than the original.


Might be just me, but does anyone else find it annoying how about 90% of the fatalities in MKX end up with the camera focusing on the gored bodies instead of the winning character doing a cool win pose? I feel like MK9 did the total opposite. When any character was done with their fatalities, they would have the camera show the winning character. Don't get me wrong, I do think it works for some of them like Takeda's rib rip, Scorpion's face slice, Tremor's boulder smash... but sometimes it can get annoying. I love the detail the characters have gotten and I just wanna see that, this isn't a fucking horror game, yeah it's heavily based on killing but it's also about the winning character coming out on top in what this is, a fighting game (tournament). Sorry just had to let it out, I might be alone with this and I don't have a problem with anyone who likes it the way it is now. Just my opinion.

I am not, nor have ever been, a Sub-Zero fan, but his chest kold fatality makes me jelous every time. It's so badass. He also has one of the worst fatalities in the game with his bed of ice, so he's balanced :)

Quan's 1st fatal was my more beloved since his first trailer, I mean cmon! you make the opponent eat a sword to then cut the guy in half from the inside? that's fucked up... and amazing.

altho I play him so I might not be super objecive, Tremor's rock grave and Mileena's dinner are also pretty great.

Among other things, brutal to me would mostly mean how long you suffer before becoming braindead.

I honestly think most fatalities are pretty dumb and many could look better. Probably the only one I think is unique is the one where Takdea throws out & hooks the blades inside the opponents throat, once the whip is lodged inside. Good presentation & camera work for the most part. The only really needless part was the arm dismemberment.

I wish more fatalities had a quick "martial arts" look to them, instead of them being a long gore porn show.

Mileena's 2nd
Johnny's 2nd

Shoutouts to Sub-Zero's Ice Bed. I'm a sucker for fatalities that have unique little touches and effects, and though the fatality's kinda weak overall, the impaled twitching eye is great.

For me it has to be both of kenshis fatalities... No bias what so ever due to kenshi being my favorite video game character nope nope nope nope no bias what so ever

My Puppet is the only one that still makes me cringe. Just the way he lifts them up by their tendons and lets them scream is so friggin' sadistic and brutal.

Inner Workings and Selfie get honorable mentions. Also for my unpopular opinion vote, I actually really like Erron's Six Shooter fatality. It's a very old school fatality. Simple, violent, and to the point.
