General/Other - Sub-Zero This is why so many people main Sub-Zero.

[MadPropz101]

sub zero rushes down a lot in this game though, and he has his high low mixup which he frequently uses

Yes of course, but he is a very defensive character in GM and has many other options.

Weirdly enough, Sub Zero is my fav MK character and I like Scorpion in this game more than him. Kold War Scorpion skin is just really good looking to me especially the alt color.

Pretty much the exact opposite here. Scorpion has always been my favorite mk character but I like playing Sub Zero more. lol

 

[nfdsallwd]

i liked sub zero even before i played mk, one kid had mk2 on sega genesis and told us poverty lords stories about a blue ninja who put people in his ice puddle.

 

[vegeta]

Pheh. IDGAF what people say about scorpion players. I've mained him since MK1. Been through it all lol

 

[Sonho]

Lol that's not why. He's really good in this game b/c in grandmaster, he nullifies a lot of the bs guessing games that are in this game.

And plus, He's the coolest looking ninja, by definition. So, hold dat.

Doesnt SZ do the "Bs guessing game " in the corner himself? Locking you in with the clone and then its 50/50 heaven for him?

 

[Blade4693]

Lol I agree. Scorpion has been my favorite since MK1/2 and now I get crap for liking him like I am some bandwaggoner or something lol I don't care, I have been a fan of his my whole life and im not going to stop just because he has become the face of the series/poster boy. I'm not on that hipster sh**.

 

[WayoftheFist]

Nah reptile is the hipster ninja. Sub has been my favorite character since mk1. Something about freezing people. And he's blue.

lock thread ban op

If this was the case more people would have used him in MK9.

I used to like them both equally until I realized how much of a dumb fuck Scorpion was as I got older.

But he was ass in mk9. in mkx they can flow chart him and do ok against other scrubs.

 

[aj1701]

Well my first ever video game was Mortal Kombat 4

If you only knew how very sad that is. just a few years too late.

 

[aj1701]

He nullifies anyone with out a teleport LOL.

Seriously half the time in that mu I'm just waiting for his ice clone to disappear and him to stop throwing ice balls. It's very annoying.

I think I'm gonna hate him more than green Lantern in injustice

Pick kitana, throw fans.

 

[catdurid]

I was thinking the opposite. Its the older players of the series who hate on Scorpion. Not the young players.

I started with MK1. Scorpion was never my #1, but he was one of my favorites. I think the character is absolute trash now.

Ed boon has been jerking scorpion off expecting everyone to guzzle that shit up. Its the older fans who get pissed off at all the nonsense, and blatant favoritism. He has become MK's little whore.

I was thinking he would be more of an interesting character after seeing hanzo back. Nope! still a complete douche bag.

 

[VenomX-90]

B/c freezing and uppercutting doesn't get any easier than that.

"Scorpion is too mainstream and is poster boy of MK, so I'm going to pick another poster boy of MK"
But really, clone is cool and NRS managed to capitalize on it properly - something they didn't quite do with some other "gimmicky" variations in the game.
