I think Scorpion is considered more of an Anti-hero. he's not really out to save the world but at the same time he not part of Shao Khan's army. He is only out for his own vendetta. Mortal Kombat is just a means to an end to him
Thank you for making me remember the hardest game I've ever played, Mortal Kombat mythologies: Sub Zero. Game was a freaking nightmare to beat, and I salute whoever's persisted through it.
I DO love Scorpion's look in the game, though. It honestly makes me wonder how one could rewrite his backstory so that a version of him could exist in the DC Universe. Like, maybe in this world, he's made a Hellspawn by Hades, and tricked into thinking Batman killed his clan?
Or the original Scorpion is his ancestor that died in kombat against Sub Zero, who also died. Fast forward to a young man named Hanzo Hasashi who dons Scorpion & finds that Batman is none other than a direct descendant of Sub Zero
Scorpion is perceived by fans as the title's foremost anti-hero. He undertakes actions that benefit the forces of good, albeit in his own gruesome and vigilante manner. His attitude, appearance and self-reliance have all contributed to his popularity. Compared to the purely virtuous "good guys", and the diabolically evil "bad guys", Scorpion's moral neutrality is unique. Although he is featured alongside the forces of evil in the opening scene of Mortal Kombat: Armageddon
Scorpion is one of the most known and best Mortal Kombat character and it's amazing that they put him in here. Personally he is my favorite character ever.
How is Injustice story mode better than the MK9 story? It is a story that goes through MK1 MK2 and UMK3 with some changes. Are you trying to say that change is BAD?!
Getting injustice ultimate edition for the PS vita was one of the best decisions I have ever made game wise. My favorite character is flash, but scorpion is awesome too, and some of the other characters.
Well scorpion being on the heroes side can be justified with his alignment I mk9. Scorpion tends to be very neutral compared to others like quan chi and shang tsung. While he is often seen working with quan chi he doesn't do it voluntary. At least this is what I think
He doesn't fit into DC, he is like the symbol of Mortal Kombat. And the creators of this game make MK. The creators can do whatever they want. You're lucky they even made this game. And it is one character, deal with it. Additionally, DC characters were already in a MK game, so what goes around comes around.
Why? Mortal kombat 9 is the best of all of the series neterrealm studios worked hard on it so many kambatins dlc story is so longer then mortal kombat vs dc universe look I love scorpion in everything but mortal kombat 9s story is awesome
Scorpion is one of the best game characters ever. If they do add Subzero, I would buy the game just for these two characters. I love Scorpion and Subzero, but would love them even more if they weren't enemies.
During the MK vs DC storyline, Raiden explained that the DC characters powers were siphoned and shared with others which explains why characters like GL WW CM and Supes were struggling with the MK characters
In Sub-Zero's ending in the Arcade Mode of Mortal Kombat 9, him and Scorpion finally become friends. They come to the agreement that it was neither Sub-Zero's fault (the older one) that Scorpion's family was killed, nor Scorpion's fault that he killed Sub-Zero (again, the older one). So they decide to wipe out the Lin Kuei together. The ending we all wanted. :)
Scorpion appears human when masked, though this is merely an illusion. Only his skull remains when his true form, sometimes ablaze. Scorpion's most popular and recognized skill is his famous spear attack, which is used to draw an opponent toward him. This attack will also stun the opponent for a short amount of time. Scorpion will shout, "Get over here!" or "Come here!", while executing this technique.
Marvel/Capcom did something similar. Akuma was in an X-Men fighting game. Also, Superman shaves by reflecting his heat vision off of a mirror onto his face. They actually said it in the Death and Life of Superman novel.
@emonski yes the original voice actor but since Mk vs. DC, mortal kombat 2011, and injustice he's been voiced by Patrick Seitz. It's on the credit of the games plus the wiki page....
Yes, Superman shaves with his own heat vision. However, supposedly it is with a piece of the spaceship that brought him to earth (that withstands his heat vision so he can shave).
I didn't see the answer to the question so I thought I'd toss it up. Superman was shown in early comics... post crisis I think, using his own heat vision to shave his stubbles. How he did it I can't remember cause I thought he used a mirror, which doesn't make sense on its face cause the mirror should melt, but I only can be sure I remember that his heat vision was involved
For EVO's 2013 Injustice Torney, also, I mentioned in the post u replied to was the facthat the updates were patches 4 nerfing him on all 3 consoles. . The 3rd console is the WiiU version. Yea, fancy that.
K-Wing it's a NetherRealm DC fighting game, and all that purple stuff around Scorpion can lead that Batman's teleporter brought him to the Injustice DC Universe.
K-Wing, the reboot didn't mess up Sub-Zero and Scorpion's story that bad. Scorpion kills Sub-Zero on the first MK (like he did before) only to find out that it was actually Sub-Zero's brother (like before) and Sub-Zero's brother still becomes Noob Sibot, the change was that instead of Smoke being turned into a robot it was Sub-Zero the one that gor turned, but it still didn't end Sub-Zero and Scorpion's rivalry.
there was an episode of Superman: the animated series where they actually showed him shaving himself. he used heat vision and a mirror to shave or really burn it off. since he can control how how the heat vision is
They both have flaming skulls for heads, they both fight with chains, and they're both spirits of vengeance. Does anyone else see this as more than coincidence?
I see this as a addition on to mk vs dcu like the fight still isn't over between the two as you see scorpion is in and sub zero is seen briefly when scorpion is about to finish him
Scorpion, while he may have not fit in, was still pretty cool to see and his redesign makes him look more like a comic book character. If you want something that doesn't make sense, look a Pac Man and BBA Mega Man in SFxT.
To be fair, getting shot in the head doesn't actually necessarily mean death. Just as Mr. Phineas Gage for details. Also, he'd shave very painfully, and slowly, with a kryptonite-tipped razor.
yeah but they did make a whole game where the dc universe and the mc universe where mixed together and the creators of this game are the creators of mortal combat so I guess its kinda like a surprise or gift
hey Knight wing the reason scorpion is in injustice is the glitch that happened for the Mk vs Dc were they they got transferred to their dimensions is still happening just thought i would let you know. Good video by the way :)
i think i know why well because neather realms made this game so of course they were going to show tribute to their main title but also this could mean another mortal combat game coming out because scorpion has a new attire and everything and before the match started with aqua man you saw sub-zero and shal khan so idk could be
the only way i could see supes shaving would be to use a magic razor (magic doesn't kill him, it just makes him vulnerable) or to have someone put kryptonite close enough to him that it made him vulnerable but not kill him. also, dude, you're wife is awesome.
Scorpion is technically a DC character because DC actually made scorpion for MK and when MK was first released DC actually made a comic featuring scorpion which puts him in both the MK and DC universes
actually now it makes sense that Scorpian is on the hero side. He's a killer, but he's still somewhat a hero he became who he is to get vengence for his family.
There was mention of some things about MK, and I can guarantee the story is going to be switched a bit fro the 9 story plot. I can guarantee that it will have a lot to do with Liu Kang becoming an evil god, so not everyone who died is going to remain dead
Actually Scorpion does kinda fit in because NetherRealm and DC Comics created DC vs Mortal Kombat. It doesn't make much sense since this game is mostly based in DC but its not a big deal and is a pretty cool idea for the DLC
Love the channel dude, but MK9 was set in an Alternative Reality, and in Scorpion's ending he finds out that Sub Zero didn't kill his clan and they become allies set as the 'deadly alliance' and kick some ass!
oh hey , on your Injustice: Gods Among Us - Injustice DLC Lobo The Main Man, video Amber comments at 0:50 she noticed lobo on the "hero side" but in this video did you notice lobo was on the "bad-guys side" ? (btw still think Scorpion just looks like Scarecrow on Sinestro's Corp) :)
Scorpion does fit in here, because he is owned by Warner Bros. the same company that owns DC. I'm pretty sure in the near future DC will make some Mortal Kombat comics, as well.
I think Scorpion is considered more of an Anti-hero. he's not really out to save the world but at the same time he not part of Shao Khan's army. He is only out for his own vendetta. Mortal Kombat is just a means to an end to him
CraZoVideoZ I dont
Scorpion just killed half of supermans regime
Lol, "I'm trying to think how Scorpion fits into the DC Universe." Thank Ed Boon for giving you a decent fighting game.
DONT TALK SHIT ABOUT SCORPION.
Thank you for making me remember the hardest game I've ever played, Mortal Kombat mythologies: Sub Zero. Game was a freaking nightmare to beat, and I salute whoever's persisted through it.
DC designed the new outfit for scorpion, plus with injustice being an alternate dimension game, he can somewhat fit in
Scorpion is my favorite fighting game character to date.
Congrats on the 100,000 subs
Your the best youtuber
I DO love Scorpion's look in the game, though. It honestly makes me wonder how one could rewrite his backstory so that a version of him could exist in the DC Universe. Like, maybe in this world, he's made a Hellspawn by Hades, and tricked into thinking Batman killed his clan?

+Nelo(RS) Seriously a descendent of Scorpion? No. Just no.
Jason Todd Does it look like I sit around brainstorming what if stories for characters with an already established origin? No I dont
+Nelo(RS) Take a chill pill dude.
Jason Todd Cause and effect, not expecting a reaction is hilarious.
Scorpion is perceived by fans as the title's foremost anti-hero. He undertakes actions that benefit the forces of good, albeit in his own gruesome and vigilante manner.

Compared to the purely virtuous "good guys", and the diabolically evil "bad guys", Scorpion's moral neutrality is unique.

scorpion is the man, he's the biggest reason I bought this game
Scorpion is one of the most known and best Mortal Kombat character and it's amazing that they put him in here. Personally he is my favorite character ever.
How is Injustice story mode better than the MK9 story? It is a story that goes through MK1 MK2 and UMK3 with some changes. Are you trying to say that change is BAD?!
Mk9 has a very bad story in my opinion too. Besides almost everything that happened in MK9 was then changed in MKX
Getting injustice ultimate edition for the PS vita was one of the best decisions I have ever made game wise. My favorite character is flash, but scorpion is awesome too, and some of the other characters.
I only came to look at this game because of Scorpion lol
me too
Well scorpion being on the heroes side can be justified with his alignment I mk9. Scorpion tends to be very neutral compared to others like quan chi and shang tsung. While he is often seen working with quan chi he doesn't do it voluntary. At least this is what I think

And it is one character, deal with it. Additionally, DC characters were already in a MK game, so what goes around comes around.
Well, he's a guest character, and that teleport effect in the intro.
He does fit in the game, he was placed in mainly as a reference to the Xbox 360 and PS3 game Mortal Kombat vs DC Universe
I wish Scorpion was in the story mode.
Why? Mortal kombat 9 is the best of all of the series neterrealm studios worked hard on it so many kambatins dlc story is so longer then mortal kombat vs dc universe look I love scorpion in everything but mortal kombat 9s story is awesome
THANK YOU I love mortal kombat 9
I agree but the worst part of it is that every one dies and then comes back to kill raiden I hate ml x
Harvey Dent Two face we all agree with that
i think kwife is funny! By the way, i really love your vids (: keep up the good work
scorpion is netrual
Scorpion is one of the best game characters ever. If they do add Subzero, I would buy the game just for these two characters. I love Scorpion and Subzero, but would love them even more if they weren't enemies.
I want a wife like this!
Benjamin Callinicos and why did you have to say this?
During the MK vs DC storyline, Raiden explained that the DC characters powers were siphoned and shared with others which explains why characters like GL WW CM and Supes were struggling with the MK characters
I love scorpion!
well I think it's cool that they added Scorpion into the game because they are the creators of Mortal Kombat
I like how he always notices when he loses a clash, but never notices when he wins one...
In Sub-Zero's ending in the Arcade Mode of Mortal Kombat 9, him and Scorpion finally become friends. They come to the agreement that it was neither Sub-Zero's fault (the older one) that Scorpion's family was killed, nor Scorpion's fault that he killed Sub-Zero (again, the older one). So they decide to wipe out the Lin Kuei together. The ending we all wanted. :)
At the end of Mortal Kombat (2011) Quan Chi was speaking with Shinnok. I think that's gonna play into the next game. I can't wait! Good video!
Scorpion appears human when masked, though this is merely an illusion. Only his skull remains when his true form, sometimes ablaze. Scorpion's most popular and recognized skill is his famous spear attack, which is used to draw an opponent toward him. This attack will also stun the opponent for a short amount of time.

Id take Red Hood over Riddler. But i think the Bat characters are done. What do you think of Batgirl in this?
Yes, Superman shaves with his own heat vision. However, supposedly it is with a piece of the spaceship that brought him to earth (that withstands his heat vision so he can shave).
It would be cool if Scorpion's Ultimate was an X-Ray instead. And his ending screen would be doing a Fatality on his enemy.
Marco Guise
Congrats on u almost getting 100,000 subscribers
Scorpion's clan is called the Shirai Ryu (pronounced "She-Rai Re-You"), and his real name is Hanzo Hasashi.
Yep
Heat vision off a mirror or a blue kryptonite razor. If they can have kryptonite gum then they can have a blue kryptonite razor.
Awesome video Kwings!
the way he describes scorpion at 12:50 is actually ermac the red telepathic ninja in mortal kombat.
I know this is late but have u played or seen the new MK X game or read the comic book I heard that the book explains what happend after MK 9 I think
I didn't see the answer to the question so I thought I'd toss it up. Superman was shown in early comics... post crisis I think, using his own heat vision to shave his stubbles. How he did it I can't remember cause I thought he used a mirror, which doesn't make sense on its face cause the mirror should melt, but I only can be sure I remember that his heat vision was involved

He reflects his heatvision off a mirror to shave. Has done so in the comics, in live action, and in the animated series.
K-Wing it's a NetherRealm DC fighting game, and all that purple stuff around Scorpion can lead that Batman's teleporter brought him to the Injustice DC Universe.
K-Wing, the reboot didn't mess up Sub-Zero and Scorpion's story that bad.

They both have flaming skulls for heads, they both fight with chains, and they're both spirits of vengeance. Does anyone else see this as more than coincidence?
wel he takes a mirror he shoots with his heat devision he shoots at the mirrior the heat devision strikes back and he then shaves
I see this as a addition on to mk vs dcu like the fight still isn't over between the two as you see scorpion is in and sub zero is seen briefly when scorpion is about to finish him
Scorpion, while he may have not fit in, was still pretty cool to see and his redesign makes him look more like a comic book character. If you want something that doesn't make sense, look a Pac Man and BBA Mega Man in SFxT.
and kwing scorpion was actually portraid by john pesina and toasty was his skull fatality and he does it in every game
did anyone notice when he fighted the flash it is the the same set from the scarecrow boss fight batman arkham city
To be fair, getting shot in the head doesn't actually necessarily mean death. Just as Mr. Phineas Gage for details. Also, he'd shave very painfully, and slowly, with a kryptonite-tipped razor.
also his clan is called d shir ry ryu
they assassin's are called the lin kuei
yeah but they did make a whole game where the dc universe and the mc universe where mixed together and the creators of this game are the creators of mortal combat so I guess its kinda like a surprise or gift
hey Knight wing the reason scorpion is in injustice is the glitch that happened for the Mk vs Dc were they they got transferred to their dimensions is still happening just thought i would let you know. Good video by the way :)
The Man of Steel uses his heat vision at a low intensity towards a mirror, which reflects onto his face and burns the stubble away.
He hets a mirror and lasers it so reflects on to his face that's how superman shaves
scorpion is on the heros side because he is a defender of "Earth Realm" apparently
Patrick Seitz is the voice for scorpion, he's known for his roles a lot of anime series.
Heat vision and a mirror is what happened in the comics and animated show
i think i know why well because neather realms made this game so of course they were going to show tribute to their main title but also this could mean another mortal combat game coming out because scorpion has a new attire and everything and before the match started with aqua man you saw sub-zero and shal khan so idk could be
He uses a piece of reflective metal from his ship and his heat vision to shave, and I like scorpion being in it wish they would bring in sub zero too
he has a special razor made from kryptonite encased in lead, allowing it to cut the hair without harming superman
You guys are legendary seriously
Superman shave by getting by a mirror and using his heat vision to shave. Its in a comic. the cartoon show, and a movie.
either with heat vision or a lead razor edged with a bit of kryptonite
The catwoman shot in the head by ivo was Martian man hunter in disguise
YES they have scorpions moves from the Mortal Kombat game made in 2011 (I believe its MK 9)
Ed Boon is no longer the voice of Scorpion but Ed still does the "Get over here" voice.
the only way i could see supes shaving would be to use a magic razor (magic doesn't kill him, it just makes him vulnerable) or to have someone put kryptonite close enough to him that it made him vulnerable but not kill him.
also, dude, you're wife is awesome.
Just saying scorpion does have an encounter with dc characters in dc vs mortal combat so they do relate to an extend.
Scorpion is technically a DC character because DC actually made scorpion for MK and when MK was first released DC actually made a comic featuring scorpion which puts him in both the MK and DC universes
actually now it makes sense that Scorpian is on the hero side. He's a killer, but he's still somewhat a hero he became who he is to get vengence for his family.
Superman would either look in a mirror and use his most most precise version of his laser beams to cut it or he finds a diamond and use it as a razor
@Riley Farrell, Superman hasn't discovered kryptonite yet in the Man of Steel movie.
Superman shaves by reflecting his heat vision off of his mirror. He also uses a diamond-edged razor that he got from Bruce Wayne/Batman.
There was mention of some things about MK, and I can guarantee the story is going to be switched a bit fro the 9 story plot. I can guarantee that it will have a lot to do with Liu Kang becoming an evil god, so not everyone who died is going to remain dead
He shoots his heat vision at the mirror at angle to shave his face
How dare u GET OVER HERE *(in scorpian voice)*
Actually Scorpion does kinda fit in because NetherRealm and DC Comics created DC vs Mortal Kombat. It doesn't make much sense since this game is mostly based in DC but its not a big deal and is a pretty cool idea for the DLC
THE FLAME FATALITY WAS IN THE 1 MK IT WAS MODIFIED IN MK2 AND IS A FATALITY THAT GOES IN AND OUT IN THE MK GAMES
Love the channel dude, but MK9 was set in an Alternative Reality, and in Scorpion's ending he finds out that Sub Zero didn't kill his clan and they become allies set as the 'deadly alliance' and kick some ass!
he would concentrate his laser on a mirror and then use his beam to shave
He is a special character and ed boom is the creator of injustic and mortal kombay
oh hey , on your Injustice: Gods Among Us - Injustice DLC Lobo The Main Man, video Amber comments at 0:50 she noticed lobo on the "hero side" but in this video did you notice lobo was on the "bad-guys side" ? (btw still think Scorpion just looks like Scarecrow on Sinestro's Corp) :)
scorpion is a dc character because there was Mortal Kombat comic.
And Scorpion has been doing the flaming skull fatality since MK1
Scorpion does fit in here, because he is owned by Warner Bros. the same company that owns DC. I'm pretty sure in the near future DC will make some Mortal Kombat comics, as well.
Skorpion being in is in reference to Mortal Kombat vs DC Universe
The reason he is in there is cause netherrealm also made mortal kombat so their kind of connecting
Superman shaved in a cartoon episode by shooting his lazer beams at a mirror which reflected back to his face.
He was in mortal kombat 9 the same creaters of this game
technicaly soloman grundy rose out from the nether realm and scorpion sent him back
I love it how he says that scorpion wasn't a bad guy while he threw flash to the nether realm.
how superman shaves: first he goes to a mirror then uses his lazer eyes and the hair burns off
He could melt the metal and kryptonite then mix the two up with only a small dose of kryptonite
He would shoot lasers at a mirror and they would come back and burn of his hair
dont worry knightwing, they are making another season pass with martian manhunter, power girl, red hood, and sub zero as playable characters
