I just wanted to post a message and get this clear. It needs to be discussed I feel like because I keep seeing it everywhere. It's like a bug that won't go away.

Where in the blue hell did everyone get the idea that Noob Saibot is a symbiote?

I mean there are only two things that have ever even hinted it.

1. Noob Saibot's ending in Armageddon which is null and void because all armageddon endings are false. Otherwise Sub-Zero would be a god and other crazy crap would be happening in the MK universe.

2. Ed Boon said something about Noob and Saibot being different or something. I believe all he means by that is that Noob=Boon and Saibot=Tobias. That's about it. The only other seperate thing about them is that Noob Saibot's shadow acts as a limb. You know like an arm or a leg instead of acting like a normal shadow.

That's it though. Noob Saibot was brought about by the evil in Bi Han's soul. He could not even EXIST without Bi Han because they are the same person.

Also, if this whole scenario of Bi Han ending up in the heavens happens, which is a complete ripoff of Scorpion's MK:D story by the way, then both Kuai Liang and Noob Saibot would subsequently have zero relevance to the story at all. Noob Saibot would go back to being the weak character he was before MK:Deception and Kuai Liang would just be a complete clone of Sub-Zero which is exactly what the creators have been trying to keep him from. Kuai Liang has been portrayed as Sub-Zero in every MK game since MK2 and that's a hell of a lot of games while Bi Han was only Sub-Zero for one.

So, discuss this subject guys. What do you want to happen with these two characters?

Personally I don't want to see the brotherly conflict removed between them. I would also like to have Noob Saibot and Sub-Zero instead of Noob Saibot, Sub-Zero and Sub-Zero. When will asking for Bi Han to become Sub-Zero again ever end?

I personally don't care who's who, just as long as Sub-Zero is in the game with a revamped moveset to give his character an enhanced gameplay with new and old moves alike, new juggles, new techinques and combos to execute from the older versions of the game but still maintaining the classic look of MK1 and MK2.

This goes for Noob Saibot as well, although I think Noob Saibot should change his alias name to "Nightshade" since he has the ability to manipulate shadows it would seem like. And again as long as the character has an enhanced moveset to give his character an enhanced gameplay with new and old moves alike, new juggles, new techniques and combos to execute from the older versions of the game but still maintaining the classic ninja palette swap in black from MK1 and MK2 with the loose fitting ninja pants, the clothed mask, and the black vest over the under garments. Also I think his skin shouldn't be so black like a shadow, he should have regular human skin in my opinion.

Esoteric, i dont think he should change his name to nightshade, it just seems generic. Also, changing his name would be pointless, but your ideas were good. I dont really mind his skin color, because i liked his costume from deception, although i think it would he cool to brinng pitch black (mk2) back.

Noob's skin should always be black. He looked horrible in that one Deception costume where he had human looking flesh. He doesn't just control shadow, he's MADE of shadow. His body is darkness. Every part of him, skin and clothes, should be colored black.
