Why did Cassie beat Shinnok?
Yeah, in terms of power levels Cassie shouldn't even be fit to make Shinnok a sandwich.Why did Cassie beat Shinnok?
DON'T TALK ABOUT MY CASSANDRA LIKE THATYeah, in terms of power levels Cassie shouldn't even be fit to make Shinnok a sandwich.
DON'T TALK ABOUT MY CASSANDRA LIKE THAT
I laughed really hard, my cat got scared and my sister is yelling at me now. That's some funny shit right there xD
For the same reason Johnny beat Shinnok. She has the still-unexplained green energy.Why did Cassie beat Shinnok?
which is fucking stupid. I can buy Johnny beating regular Shinnok but Shinnok who just absorbed Earthrealms life force? come onFor the same reason Johnny beat Shinnok. She has the still-unexplained green energy.
I would take this to mean Johnny's MK9 arcade mode ending is being treated by NRS as canon in a sense. At least to the extent it described the nature of his power, that if he actually knew how to control it, he would have an unimaginable godlike strength.
It literally says in the MK9 arcade ending, that it is an unimaginably destructive power. I mean, you see an entire city leveled because of it.which is fucking stupid. I can buy Johnny beating regular Shinnok but Shinnok who just absorbed Earthrealms life force? come on
Johnny beating Shinnok isn't too bad. It's the fact that that Shinnok manhandles everyone and gains a power boost which gave him enough power to take over earthrealm and maybe combat the elder gods just to get beaten by Cassie Cage. Such a dissapointment.For the same reason Johnny beat Shinnok. She has the still-unexplained green energy.

Sub-Zero and Scorpion's bro moment could have been expanded on more. I'd love to play a story about the Lin Kuei and Shirai Ryu.Too much special forces, they're the most boring faction. Some cool moments but almost all of them are short lived.
I realize that it does say in the arcade ending that it is unimaginably destructive, but so is an Elder God. In the MK4 prologue it even says that Raiden and Shinnok's battle nearly destroyed the earth. That was REGULAR Shinnok. How the hell is Cassie able to defeat an even more powerful Elder God? It makes no sense, and that's why it's fucking dumb.It literally says in the MK9 arcade ending, that it is an unimaginably destructive power. I mean, you see an entire city leveled because of it.
I don't think "Absorbing Earth Realm's life force" is any more defined. How strong is "Earth Realm's Life Force". It's a thing just as completely made up as green energy, I'm not sure why one should be considered stronger than the other.
As far as I'm concerned, Shinnok absorbing Earth Realm's "Life Force" isn't any different than "His power level is over 9000!"..
And I think he gets that power after beating Shao Khan...It literally says in the MK9 arcade ending, that it is an unimaginably destructive power. I mean, you see an entire city leveled because of it.

It's dumb, but only so dumb in the same sense that Stryker doesn't just instantly kneecap everyone.I realize that it does say in the arcade ending that it is unimaginably destructive, but so is an Elder God.

It's.. really not though. I get what you're trying to say but I disagree with it. Cassie beat Shinnok because of plot armor. That's pretty much the only reason but whateverIt's dumb, but only so dumb in the same sense that Stryker doesn't just instantly kneecap everyone.
As far as Mortal Kombat logic goes, the craziness of Johnny and Cassie beating the crap out of an Elder God is par for the course, if not even more well-explained since it's expressly part of the story and NRS had to make it least some effort to explain what was going on.
I think this Dorkly video sums it up:
I think mileena wanted to die but I'll add on. Sareena mentions Bi-Han, where was he? Takeda was taking on Sindel(who slaughterd most of the adults) while taking on another revenant at the same time while injured. And lol about scorpion waiting for someone else to capture Quan. The scorpion I know would have teleported there ASAP. And reptile and Ermac are forever doomed to just be jobbers. What happened to Kano? Why doesn't Raiden restore everyone? They're like sons to him, I think he's capable, so why not? I mean why didn't Raiden just teach Johnny to harness that green energy after seeing it the first time since it's so strong? It's enough to beat Shinnok so it would have saved time.It sucked. It sucked a lot. I pretty much hated it.
How is Johnny's power such a mystical thing, when he uses it... All the time?
How come Mileena didn't just bite D'Vorah when she was about to kill her? I mean, it would have been easy and fast, then she could have run out or teleported.
How come Kotal wasn't sucked into Shinnok's amulet? The beam was obviously upon him, why wasn't he even pulled forward?
Why did we only get back stories for the main 3, and no one else? Erron, Ferra, Torr, D'Vorah, Kotal, and even Jacqui got no character development or background. All we know is who they are.
There were tons of questions unanswered. Like, why isn't Jade a revenant? Who was that woman who possessed her? What did Sonya and Johnny do during years 5-24 during MKX. There wasn't even allusion to it.
What the fuck happened to Tanya and Rain? After they got beat up, we never saw them again.
Why does Scorpion have such an agenda against Quan Chi, but stayed silent for 5 years until someone else caught him... Then he shows up.
Why did no one except Jax, Kuai, Hanzo, and Johnny get released from their revenance? What about Kitana, Kung Lao, Smoke, and the rest? No one else is freed. This is inexcusable.
Who is Vera? We never even see her. Seeing her kiss Jax goodbye and telling him to bring their daughter back safely would have been better.
Where are the Kamidogu? I'm sure they're protected or something, maybe destroyed, but come on, I thought they were what were securing Shinnok's amulet.
Where is Fujin's playability? He was more important than some of the revenants.
This has been, What's Up With That: Mortal Kombat X Edition.
Dead, Quan had his soul and Quan died so now his soul resides in the Netherrealm. God come on this is basic shit bro learn2lore broSareena mentions Bi-Han, where was he?
Why doesn't Raiden restore everyone? They're like sons to him, I think he's capable, so why not?
So many plotholes.I think Mileena wanted to die but I'll add on. Sareena mentions Bi-Han, where was he? Takeda was taking on Sindel(who slaughterd most of the adults) while taking on another revenant at the same time while injured. And lol about scorpion waiting for someone else to capture Quan.

So Bi died in MK9 then Quan got his soul? Ok got it. Do you think that Raiden could ask the elder gods to restore them? And why is old Kung Lao in the game if he's not in the story?Dead, Quan had his soul and Quan died so now his soul resides in the Netherrealm. God come on this is basic shit bro learn2lore bro
Because Raiden couldn't. The only reason the revenants that were restored got restored is because Raiden mixed his magic with Quan's and the resultant explosion only hit the nearby revenants.
Well Raiden promised Scorpion he'd request the reincarnation of the Shirai Ryu in MK9 if he didn't kill Bi Han (which he did anyway l o l ) but that was asking for people who were already dead and whose souls belonged to the Elder Gods or whatever the MK equivalent of Heaven is. The problem is that these revenants are revenants because Quan Chi/Shinnok/The Netherrealm are in control of their souls rather than the Elder Gods so the only way for them to be reincarnated is through Quan or Shinnok. Old Kung Lao is in the game because they needed a primary costume for him that doesn't give away the story. Same reason Kitana looks normal even though she was a revenant, and Liu Kang.So Bi died in MK9 then Quan got his soul? Ok got it. Do you think that Raiden could ask the elder gods to restore them? And why is old Kung Lao in the game if he's not in the story?
Uh not true, Kotal Kahn IS a god but Shinnok is arguably not. Mileena just doesn't know how to control the amulet which is why she got burned, she just pointed it at him and shot energy at the guards rather than sucking them in to the amulet.- Shinnok's amulet seems to only suck in gods. Kotal Khan is not a god.
- The Kamidogu are daggers now. See the comics for more, where I'm sure their fate will be revealed in a future issue.
