Actually I would love to see it come back witha twist.

For example: he summons several grinder-braces around the neck and lets the head simply go down.

Yeah, so obvious that no one thought Quan Chi in that one thread... :/


We all knew Quan Chi was going to be in MKX. That wasn't the question in "that one thread", it was about who this new reveal was going to be. People didn't think Quan Chi, because they were too focused on the songs... which don't have anything to do with Quan Chi, really.


None of the "speculated hints" in the past days had nothing to do with Quan Chi's revealing. That's my point. Especially the "Character Reveal on Thursday?" thread. Everybody thought Johnny Cage and Ermac. And then there's the picture before that with the palm tree, which people thought Shinnok.

As for the rest of the fatality I would like to see an abrupt change in it's speed. Enemy slowly walking into the sword, and as the blade is about to come out the back of the fighters head the sword pulls out and viciously plunges in and out stabbing the characters face a handful of times via Chi's sorcery. There is a lot that can be done with it.

I love his look and the fact he put a shirt on! Finally.

Can we talk about the horse?

Because it's really intriguing me.

I mean...Quan Chi is not the kind of dude you typically imagine needs a mount to get around, and most of the environments he gets around IN don't require them either.

So either they're going ham on the Lord of the Rings-style swords-and-sorcery plot elements this time around...or somebody at NRS read one of my fanart threads and decided they really liked an idea I had a few months back to portray Shinnok's invasion like the biblical apocalypse with his generals in the roles of the Four Horsemen.


Well, if Quan Chi has indeed attained his ultimate goals and attained all this power, maybe he just has the horse mount just because he can. Seems like something eccentric that he would do with all of the power he's attained.

....I just noticed something. In MK9, Quan Chi had a skeletal hand helping him out. Giving him a buff or two, acting as a throne during his win pose. Now, he's all about he's all about his spell circles, portals, and pet bat. Not a skeletal hand in sight (save for the decor on his costume).

Amulet's missing, skeletal hand is gone....where did they go? It's not like anyone else used the amulet or skeletal hand attacks, right?

Hmmmmm.... confused

When it comes to mythologies? Yes, generic fire and brimstone is that much better. Nevermind the fact it has been the standard for MK since MK2 and 3.


IIRC, I think the Mythologies booklet mentioned that Shinnok was so enamored with Earth that he reshaped parts of it, or at least the parts around his fortress, to reflect the realm he craved so desperately. MK4's Prison stage was also situated therein, it was visited both there and in Mythologies so it wasn't just a one-off.

There's no denying they've glossed over that techno-hell Doom-ish aspect in every game since though, quietly. I personally consider that a shame as I've always been a fan of the notion of the Netherealm having multiple levels and appearances a la Dante Alghieri. I'd like for it to return.

Well, I think it's pretty safe to say that DAT DEMON HOERS stole the show. I mean goddamn.

If Quan Chi is this ballin', can you imagine how badass is Shinnok going to be? Aw man, I'm feeling the hype. :3


I wonder if those goofy-looking pigbats are the only things he can summon. Was Scorpion summoning different kinds of hellspawns, or was it just generic flaming skellies?


Hold on, is he actually using one of his shoulder blade things to impale people during his fatality? On one hand, that's fucking rad, but on the other hand, I feel a bit sad that they never quite managed to just straight-up recreate his iconic MK4 attire. Whenever they tried (MKDA, MKvsDC), they never really got it right, and it always ended up looking too poofy. :/ This one looks better, I gotta admit.

Hm... i start with the impressive parts from QC.

1. His look is Genius. He never looked better before..never!

2. The second Variation catched me. It Looks like pure fun and some deep Combo mechanic.

3. His X-Ray is really impressiv and maybe the most brutal one i have ever seen. Because when QC stomps on the neck, you can see the teeth and spine "shacking" before it cracks. THIS makes it so damn brutal.

4. The fatality is... a whole new Level for me. Really simple and so brutal... uuuh, it hurts every time i see it.


But there are also some things i don't like.

1. Variation number one.. the sorcerer felt.. hm... incomplete. It lacks on creativity.

2. Well.. Variation number three. My Problem is the bat. It doesn't fit to Quan Chi. He could summon a "undead horse" in the intro, but in the fight only the bat? More different demons would be better.


But i'm be careful with my judgement because i could'nt Play with him yet and didn't saw all of his moves.

Overall I'm really impressed with what they did to QC. He Looks more badass than ever before! Good Job, NRS!

QC's leg beat down is one of the top 10 fatalities, hands down.

About the new Fatality I'd like to keep it simple: just the knife/gladius/sword forcefully shoved into the opponent's throat. Simple as that.

Finally QC has changed his attire, although I hate the red tattos, which aren't tattoos but burns on his skin. In the new timeline he shouldn't even have them, considering that he he self-inflicted those burns in order to keep the formula to control Onaga's mummified army.

BTW, he is not riding a horse, but it looks more like a RAM/GOAT (which is a symbol of Satanism too) rather than a horse.

Didn't like much his X-ray, but I've seen worse.
His specials are great, I kinda like the bat, but I hope that he can summons zombies or skeletons too. His portals variation is funny as hell.
>About the summoner variation, I'm sick and tired of dual-wielder fighters. We already have Scorpion's ninjustu variation and some combo with ice daggers from Sub-Zero.

The thing about styles 1 and 3 is that you could technically perform double and triple enchanced moves:

- Use the enhanced version of the boost field and enhanced a move while under its effects.

- Enhance the bat summon and then enhance its attack.

I still find Warlock the most appealing, but these 2 have potential.
