I thought he would be able to do that with stolen specials!!!! Although his Face off brutality is my favorite in the game so far!!!
A question though, does he have to fulfill the same requirements for brutalities as the characters he steals them from????????

i thought he would but when i heard he cant ex the stolen moves i kinda lost hope since alot of the brutalities require to be enhanced, but yes he can so relieved and yes he has to do the requirements for that characters brutality e.g minimum 5 hit combo into tele-hang for ermac's we win also that character's brutality needs to be unlocked in the krypt beforehand

And what about those brutalities that require to be enhanced? How does he make them work if he can't enhance his????

sadly this, so far none of those brutalities ive tried that needed the to be enhanced have worked , there seems to be alot of untapped potential with some brutalities that shinnok COULD have stole if he had the option to enhance the moves he steals instead of being given a set move that either isnt enhanced (scorpion's spear) or given one the does get enhanced but actually causes the brutality to fail because it's enhanced (cassie's guns)

Wait! I don't have the game yet, so I am lost here, but does he get some stolen moves to be enhanced by default?????

yes so far ive found 3 that ive tested side by side with the characters he steals from
cassie's non enchanced move does one shot from her pistol, where as her ex ver she goes all deathsroke and akimbos thos pistols.. shinnok steal the akimbo version

ermac's tele-hang just lets them hang in the air but the ex ver slams them for a pop up, shinnok gains the slam

and just now which i can confirm leads to a brutality is kung jin's cartwheels stomp ..jin's normal hit the once his ex (which you need to use for the brutality) hits them twice , shinnok hits them twice and performs the brutality


alot of downsides though are shinnok and melinna's own starting brutalities along with jin and sub's 2nd brutalities have to be done with the opponent standing on the ground ..so its harder to do in a combo that isnt just a startup or following up from a enhanced grab 50/50

That is sweet) I can't wait to get my hands on the game!!! Though Ermacs Hang would be cooler if he'd just let them hang, it gives free meter and 10% unscaled damage(which would be like 13% with damage boost). Oh well, at least he steal gets to combo off of it. Does he get an enhanced version of Kotal's antiair grab???
