Odd, he didn't have that in his intro in his reveal trailer... So the characters have several intros? That's kinda neat.

Also, that doesn't necessarily need to be Moloch, but just another Oni. It could be one of the smaller ones that you fight in MK:SM.

Am I wrong or only Moloch had three eyes, while the minor onis just had two? (like in the Goro's lair)?

We shall certainly find out! Suspense and mysteries are fun during a new MK development period. Whether it is Moloch, I think it is safe to say it is an oni. A nod to MK5 is good news as that opens the doors to MK5 favorites, such as Bo Rai Cho. This intro features Cassie, thus it would be safe to assume there are indeed different intros depending on who you are fighting against.

I wouldn't say Quan Chi is riding in on a horse. It looks like an over sized goat and if you go with old religious text some would put the Goat as a symbolic figure for the pentagram for pagan gods due to the horn ears and chin. I think it would be a safe assumption its a goat he is riding in but I could be wrong none the less.

Yeah, it is a decaying horse with horns similar to a ram.

I think it's just 2 different intros depending on what player you are. The reason Quan didn't have that intro was because the QC player was Player 1.

Scorpion's Victory Stance.

IMO, his MK9 victory stance was better.


Ha! I love it. And I actually liked Moloch in MKDA. This is just a fun little cameo.

Rumor from Igromir has it one of the dialogues between Scorpion and Sub-Zero goes something like this:

Scorp: How does it feel to be a deadman?
Sub: I could ask you the same.
Scorp: I was reborn not like you!

Hmm, does he have a different intro depening on the person he's fighting, or depending his variation? The trailer showed him riding in on a demonic horse, and now he's enters via a portal after having just cut off a moloch's head.

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!


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.


Hm yes, i think you're right. I prefer Variation 2 because i always wished about a kharakter who has the power to create Portals. And QC has it now ^.^ Love this variation.

I think that which intro you get is based on which character is P1 and which is P2.

A surprising and good reveal. I say surprising because I really didn't think we would be seeing Quan Chi this early.

Really liking his intro and new is good. It sure beats always seeing them walking in on screen.
His "Warlock" variation will be my favorite. I also like the portal moves and that X-ray is cool. However, I don't think that was the whole X-ray because it cut out while Chi was still crunching Kano's neck.
It is obvious that they didn't show everything in all his variations, so...we'll see more soon.

I watched his full fatality and I gotta say that it is brutal, but, thought it was going to be different.

All in all, I give the trailer and the fatality an 8/10.

As for intros (to come on screen), I think all characters will have 3 in accordance to their variations.
