    I remember a brief time period where Cyber Sub-Zero was actually one of the best characters in MKXL.
    Then again, Triborg as a whole was insanely powerful when they first hit the scene. Sektor and Smoke are still, to this day, two of the game's best characters.
    CSZ is still a solid (and fun) character today, and still is miles better than in MK9, although it is not much of an accomplishment.

    I know this has nothing to do with Cyber Sub-Zero's gameplay, but he easily had the best design of all Cyborgs in MK9.
    Since Sub-Zero's classic Fatality is him pulling the head with the spine still attached to it, making Cyber Sub-Zero's head similar to the Predator's who does a similar thing is a neat touch.
    (Also, funny how Predator became DLC in the next MK.)

    I thought he was character in one of the older mk's? Looked kinda like smoke but with a slightly different shade, ice bombs included.

      Nevermind, I just looked it up and it must have been a mod/hack I played of ultimate mk3. It was a friend's console I played it on.

    My second favourite Cyborg after Smoke! (sorry guys) I really liked him in MK 9. It is a shame they did a complete heel turn on him and "undid" the upgrade in X and 11.
