Thank you for checking out this long-awaited video! I hope you enjoyed it! Stick around to find out who will be covered next on this channel. It’s another highly requested group of people.
I personally like the Cold War skin. To me it sort of looks like an urban legend that soldiers would talk about during that time period. But that's just me.
Yeah I loved it when I was younger, but now I’ve grown and see all the problems. I think it would be be better if he’s skin was a little bit burnt, like if it was burnt from a bomb. And the chains look cool but it would be better if there was something under there
13:41 Mortal Kombat 9's Scorpion base skin is my personal favorite. It was the first skin I ever played as in a Mortal Kombat as a whole. I find it to be really amazing. Idk about you guys, but that skin is #1 for me.
His Injustice design is actually my most favorite look of the character. Second would have to be his MK9 base design, which they definitely made even better in MK11.
MKX is my personal favorite, I love how, I guess ninja like, it looks. I also really like the samurai motifs in his MK11 default and I also like the scorpion details in his MK9 default. His Deception skin is also amazing
Number 26 💯 i agree Number 24 i dig it Number 23 i dig it cause it different Number 22 This is blasphemy 😱😱😱 top 3 💯 Number 21 cool looking 💯 Number 20 😱😱 whaaat?! Injustice design is fire Number 19 i like it for what it was 👌🏾 Number 18 ohhh come on its decent lol Number 17 umk3 TOP 5 oh my goodness Number 16. Yeaah its ok Number 15 replace like what omg 🤦🏾♂️😫 lol i like red adaptation to his current look tho Number 14 BLASPHEMY OMG WTH top 3 lol Number 13 yeah its badness that it should've been higher on the list Number 12 badass good top 10 Number 11 another top 10 Number 10 NOO Number 9 its cool Number 8 should be Number 1 or 2 Number 7 its cool but not top 10 Number 6 to 5 nah Number 4 💯🔥🔥🔥 Number 3 mk2 🔥🔥🔥 Number 2 OMG the render version of him ultra 🔥but the gameplay version of him hated it #1 yeaaah but i wouldn't this as number 1
I may have not liked MK11 for a couple reasons but I will say the base classic skin for Hanzo is EASILY my favorite that he’s ever worn! Looks awesome! Also I actually really like DA’s inferno skin. Could just be nostalgia tho.
Thank you for pointing that out. For whatever reason, Scorpion is the only one where the art and game have different designs. I decided to highlight both in the segment-which I should’ve mentioned beforehand. Thankfully, when i cover the more characters later, this won’t be an issue. Thanks for pointing that out!
Gold scorpion is my personal favourite and I almost always rock it when playing MKX. Also I’d love to see more costume rankings particularly with reptile, milena and barkka
I gotta say Nick I’ve been waiting for this video for a long time and it’s definitely as good as I was hoping! I was actually surprised that the injustice skin was ranked so low. That’s not to say I don’t disagree with your list in anyway but I think we were all thinking it’d be in one of the top spots. Based off your recent poll I’m gonna say sub zero will be next and I can’t wait to see where this series goes. You’ve earned my subscription😊
Amazing video 🤩 one small thing I'd note is that it's kinda hard to see the details in some of the combat clips because it is so dark. You might want to consider filming those on more brightly lit stages in future rankings (where possible), especially for the less brightly coloured kombatants 😅
Clearly the best start to a new series. I cant help but to feel special because this series debuted on my birthday lol. As always A1 content here. Thank you for taking your time to make sure the content stays great for us. Your the man Nick!!
I'm just laughing at the "just cause I ranked them low doesn't mean I don't like them" but if you check the chapters it litterally says "skins I don't like"
In my opinion the blue coloring underneath the yellow ruins Scorpion’s MKD alternate/MKA primary costume for me personally, I just don’t think blue colors of any kind belong on a Scorpion costume. Other than that, I do have a lot of nostalgia for it
MK11 Scorpion gotta be my favorite, not just the design, but the character as a whole... The way he still driven by anger, but he controls his anger now, he isn't just fast but he is also methodical and more technical NRS really done a god tier job designing Hanzo in MK11
I'm not sure how familiar you are with the concept arts in Deadly Alliance, but the neat part in terms of just reusing assets to make something new. Inferno Scorpion's entire outfit from MK:DA is just making use of his original design before it changed appearance to his primary costume bodywise.
The only rule I’m confused about is MK 11’s customization you said they were going to be no DLC skins on the list and yet you included the Cold War skin from Mortal Kombat X and earlier you said you would put the classic skins on one entry.
Honestly his primary in deception is one of my favorites. With a few adjustments (like a different mask and smaller shoulders) I think it could easily be my absolute favorite.
If I had to pick Favorites, heres how I would rank them: MK3 is my fav. Klassic skin (Like the more slim feel of it compared to the first 2, and doesn't have the weird hood of 4) Deception/Unchained is my favorite 3D era skin (Nostalgia, and also I really like how it's mostly black, the bulkiness of it is cool to me since he's not wearing literal knight Armor, and I really like the padded texture some parts of it has), MK11 Netherrealm Rage is my favorite NRS era skin(The Red mixes so well with the black and yellow, the mask on this one is also the best out of these 3). If I had to choose between these, it'd be Deception/Unchained partially because that was one of my first videogames, also I just like Armor on nimble characters for some reason.
Why do you speak with such weird inflections? It’s like you’re reading the script for the first time, and then are surprised by the punctuation, then quickly adjust, but it doesn’t flow right. It’s awkward, but works barely enough to be acceptable.
My personal favorite is the MKX tournament skin , it just looks really cool and is just a better version of the MK9 skin , especially with the ninjutsu swords
I think you're gonna have to make a special exception to the "no klassic skin" rules for some characters... and I mean specifically Reptile in MKX. Unlike other characters, who just... look like their previous appearances, Reptile gets the ninja clothes but he still has the green scaly skin and face, even though in MK9 he did just have human skin
I used to love playing scorpion ( as scorpion ) on the mk 2 arcade and seeing the orangish tint lol , not my favorite but definitely nastolgic, the minds behind the entire franchise is top tier and have so many badass options
I have been waiting for this Video for a Year and while it was Challenging and Difficult it's was Worth the Wait and in the Makd that you did a Fantastic Job NickPakPadyWak,Scorpion is a Character with Great Design,Sure he has some Stingers and I'm Not a Fan of the Other MK11 Scorpion Designs,But I Love the Majority of Them,MK1,MK2,and MK3are Classic and Nostalgic that are Impossible Not to Love,MK4,Injustice,and MK9 are so Underrated,MK Deception Alternated and Armageddon are Good,and My Personal Favorites are MK Shaolin Monks,MK9 Alternated,MK vs. DC,MKX Gold,and Equally the Best Ones of them All MKX and MK11 Primary Skins.
Ok, this might sound really dumb but my favourite scorpion design is is mkx default skin. MKXL is my first ever mortal kombat game so it holds a special place in my heart, my only reason for liking it is purely sentimental lol. Great vid btw! Looking forward to the next episode of this series! You should totally do sub-zero next👀
And a fun fact MK Scorpions revenge Hanzo hasashi wears the Hanzo hasashi MKX skin during his origin section of the film which is the beginning of the film which looks nice on him one of my favourites for a casual relaxed warrior human skins
I know allot of people love the mk3 costume but, me personally, I was never a fan of those ninja designs. I actually felt it was a downgrade from the MK 2 look.

Thank you for checking out this long-awaited video! I hope you enjoyed it!
Stick around to find out who will be covered next on this channel. It’s another highly requested group of people.
I personally like the Cold War skin. To me it sort of looks like an urban legend that soldiers would talk about during that time period. But that's just me.
I can't believe ANYONR dislikes that skin lol
especially the alternate color for it
Same the Cold War styles are cool but I like the mk9 scorpion design a little more ngl
Totally agree
Yeah I loved it when I was younger, but now I’ve grown and see all the problems. I think it would be be better if he’s skin was a little bit burnt, like if it was burnt from a bomb. And the chains look cool but it would be better if there was something under there
Mfer really went and put the best Scorpion designs on the bottom 10 😭😭
Exactly 😭😭😭
Lol deadass
Yeah, he wasn't kidding when he said "he wasn't" a Scorpion fan.😂
while agreed i still think his mk11 is one of if not his best design
I’m literally screaming 😭😭😭
never rate again🔥🔥🔥
13:41 Mortal Kombat 9's Scorpion base skin is my personal favorite. It was the first skin I ever played as in a Mortal Kombat as a whole. I find it to be really amazing. Idk about you guys, but that skin is #1 for me.
Its also my fav
It’s the best
I agree, it's nostalgia to me it's a good design overall and placing it on 14 really is insulting
Also mine but I also think his second design is awesome
Amen
His Injustice design is actually my most favorite look of the character. Second would have to be his MK9 base design, which they definitely made even better in MK11.
MKX is better in my opinion
Mk9 was SO GOOD BRO that's the best skin from that game
Besides the mk1 remake those are equal
Deception and Injustice are my favorite ones
Good rule set. MK 11 would take a LONG while for each individual one (and they ware pretty much pallette swaps in of themselves.)
I agree
My Favorite Scorpion designs are:
• MK Deception Primary skin
• MK Deception Alternate skin
• MK9 Primary/2nd MKX Alternate skin
• MKX Primary skin
• MK11 Primary skin
• MK11 story mode skin
MKX is my personal favorite, I love how, I guess ninja like, it looks. I also really like the samurai motifs in his MK11 default and I also like the scorpion details in his MK9 default. His Deception skin is also amazing
The opponent variant names for mk11 fights are hilarious. Love the content.
Thank you! I’m not sure if they’re teasing something or not.🤔
Scorpion's Deadly Alliance Base Costume has always been my favorite 👌
Most ninja looking one
You, my man have taste
Number 26 💯 i agree
Number 24 i dig it
Number 23 i dig it cause it different
Number 22 This is blasphemy 😱😱😱 top 3 💯
Number 21 cool looking 💯
Number 20 😱😱 whaaat?! Injustice design is fire
Number 19 i like it for what it was 👌🏾
Number 18 ohhh come on its decent lol
Number 17 umk3 TOP 5 oh my goodness
Number 16. Yeaah its ok
Number 15 replace like what omg 🤦🏾♂️😫 lol i like red adaptation to his current look tho
Number 14 BLASPHEMY OMG WTH top 3 lol
Number 13 yeah its badness that it should've been higher on the list
Number 12 badass good top 10
Number 11 another top 10
Number 10 NOO
Number 9 its cool
Number 8 should be Number 1 or 2
Number 7 its cool but not top 10
Number 6 to 5 nah
Number 4 💯🔥🔥🔥
Number 3 mk2 🔥🔥🔥
Number 2 OMG the render version of him ultra 🔥but the gameplay version of him hated it
#1 yeaaah but i wouldn't this as number 1
I think the MK vs. DC costume is actually his best. Just enough detail and sleakness but doesn't go over board or look too busy.
His MK 9 outfit is the most overrated MK design. It took MKvsDCUs excellent design and made it too try hard
Lol deception has always been my fav design. The mask, hood, shoulder pads, everything
Shaolin Monks and MKvsDC has Scorpion’s best designs to me. Honorable mention to his 11 look tho I could really do without the red.
For me my favorite Scorpion outfits are:
1- Injustice
2- MK9
3- MKX
4- MK11
5- Gold
7:23 While this Skin doesn't Fit Scorpion,it does with Rain in MK11.
Fire (no pun intended) video! I'd love to see more of these.
Thank you so much, Oddity! I’d love to do more of these too. Stay tuned for those!
@@the_NNPW Time to chill with a Sub-Zero costume ranking after all of the burning from Scorpion, haha.
@@cvmaniac7286 oh, I have so much to say about my favorite fighting game character. Stay tuned!
How d a r e you put the default mkx skin that low🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂
A N D the default mk9 skin too....you have made an enemy today
I may have not liked MK11 for a couple reasons but I will say the base classic skin for Hanzo is EASILY my favorite that he’s ever worn! Looks awesome!
Also I actually really like DA’s inferno skin. Could just be nostalgia tho.
The Deception one is literally the best .And makes sense in his situation .
We not gonna address that the Shaolin Monks Scorpion has 2 different designs? One for teh cinematics and one in gameplay?
Thank you for pointing that out. For whatever reason, Scorpion is the only one where the art and game have different designs. I decided to highlight both in the segment-which I should’ve mentioned beforehand.
Thankfully, when i cover the more characters later, this won’t be an issue. Thanks for pointing that out!
Gold scorpion is my personal favourite and I almost always rock it when playing MKX. Also I’d love to see more costume rankings particularly with reptile, milena and barkka
I gotta say Nick I’ve been waiting for this video for a long time and it’s definitely as good as I was hoping! I was actually surprised that the injustice skin was ranked so low.

Based off your recent poll I’m gonna say sub zero will be next and I can’t wait to see where this series goes. You’ve earned my subscription😊
My top 3 has to be MK1 Scorpion, MK9 Default Scorpion, and MK11 default Scorpion.
Good picks you have there!
When i first saw the infrared costume I thought it was a mod. Like, I didn’t think a triple A developer could make that harsh of an eyesore.
I couldn’t believe it either. I had to put on some blue light glasses to continue recording that footage. It hurt my eyes so badly.
I like his MKX based design but yeah I agree it needs improvements
>Mentions scorpion should be wearing a gas mask in the cold war skin
>He's wearing a gas mask in the skin
Wants scorpion to be more designed
Scorpions designed “too much”
Scorpions balanced “boring”
Bro your Ranking Sucks in Scorpion as well as Sub Zero.
Amazing video 🤩 one small thing I'd note is that it's kinda hard to see the details in some of the combat clips because it is so dark. You might want to consider filming those on more brightly lit stages in future rankings (where possible), especially for the less brightly coloured kombatants 😅
Thank you for your feedback. For the next character costume ranking, I’ll consider this to make the viewing experience better!
I think it is probably safe to assume that any character that has an Infrared Skin is going to have that one as the lowest ranked one.
Clearly the best start to a new series. I cant help but to feel special because this series debuted on my birthday lol. As always A1 content here. Thank you for taking your time to make sure the content stays great for us. Your the man Nick!!
Happy birthday man
I'm just laughing at the "just cause I ranked them low doesn't mean I don't like them" but if you check the chapters it litterally says "skins I don't like"
Thanks for pointing that out. I went back and changed the chapter to something more fitting.
Never realized how horrible most of his designs were until now.
In my opinion the blue coloring underneath the yellow ruins Scorpion’s MKD alternate/MKA primary costume for me personally, I just don’t think blue colors of any kind belong on a Scorpion costume. Other than that, I do have a lot of nostalgia for it
MK11 Scorpion gotta be my favorite, not just the design, but the character as a whole... The way he still driven by anger, but he controls his anger now, he isn't just fast but he is also methodical and more technical
NRS really done a god tier job designing Hanzo in MK11
He’s been my favorite since 1993. 😌
I'm not sure how familiar you are with the concept arts in Deadly Alliance, but the neat part in terms of just reusing assets to make something new. Inferno Scorpion's entire outfit from MK:DA is just making use of his original design before it changed appearance to his primary costume bodywise.
The 24 costume reminds me ofkabal
The only rule I’m confused about is MK 11’s customization you said they were going to be no DLC skins on the list and yet you included the Cold War skin from Mortal Kombat X and earlier you said you would put the classic skins on one entry.
Hell yeah
Deception Scorpion could work if you take the mask of the alternate costume and remove the shoulder pads
Honestly his primary in deception is one of my favorites. With a few adjustments (like a different mask and smaller shoulders) I think it could easily be my absolute favorite.
I love his MK9 alt, personally. It's up there with OG Ninja
Fun fact: Scorpion’s alt skin from deadly alliance is playable in the mobile game for……. Some reason
not exactly, the skin in the mobile game is umk3 scorpion with the skull head
If I had to pick Favorites, heres how I would rank them:
MK3 is my fav. Klassic skin (Like the more slim feel of it compared to the first 2, and doesn't have the weird hood of 4)
Deception/Unchained is my favorite 3D era skin (Nostalgia, and also I really like how it's mostly black, the bulkiness of it is cool to me since he's not wearing literal knight Armor, and I really like the padded texture some parts of it has),
MK11 Netherrealm Rage is my favorite NRS era skin(The Red mixes so well with the black and yellow, the mask on this one is also the best out of these 3).
If I had to choose between these, it'd be Deception/Unchained partially because that was one of my first videogames, also I just like Armor on nimble characters for some reason.
I think MK9 is my favorite, it's simple, not too flashy, but elegant at the same time, it feels like his MK2 suit but evolved
Mortal Kombat 3 was the best design I don't care what you say scorpion never looked so cool.
Dude literally had this list backwards
Why do you speak with such weird inflections? It’s like you’re reading the script for the first time, and then are surprised by the punctuation, then quickly adjust, but it doesn’t flow right. It’s awkward, but works barely enough to be acceptable.
My personal favorite is the MKX tournament skin , it just looks really cool and is just a better version of the MK9 skin , especially with the ninjutsu swords
That’s my favorite, too!
The Alternate Costume that Scorpion has in Mortal Kombat Deception reassembles the same as the one from Mortal Kombat 4
Awesome video. I wasn't sure if it would be as good as the fatality videos but it might be even better
Idk if I missed seeing one, but what about scorpions injustice skins?
MK9 is OG Scorpion in my eyes.
MK9 is my favorite
That is a good looking one.
how you make his worst design his best one 🤦🏻♂️
ong
23:30 It Also has Deadly Alliance Inspiration.
Infrared scorpion being dead last came as absolutely no surprise to me. It's a stupid, gimmicky character skin that didn't need to exist.
Oh yeah. I never liked it, ever!
I think you're gonna have to make a special exception to the "no klassic skin" rules for some characters... and I mean specifically Reptile in MKX. Unlike other characters, who just... look like their previous appearances, Reptile gets the ninja clothes but he still has the green scaly skin and face, even though in MK9 he did just have human skin
I guess Noob Saibot is slightly different too? Since his klassic skins don't look like just shadows either
You put the best costume (Deadly Alliance) at number 16. I'm literally crying and throwing up. lol
Best? Lol nah cringe asf
I can understand the complaints about the alt skin being too bulky but default mk9 scorpion is peak
Would have like to have seen gameplay of the costume being spoken about. Seemed very lazy
I know im the only one but iferno skull scorpion would be top 5 or higher in my list
LETS GO!!!
What's the joke in 14:04?
Rock You Like A Hurricane is a song by a group called The Scorpions.
Mk9 base scorpion will always be my fav
I’m guessing that the mk mobile exclusive skins don’t count? (Hellspawn scorpion and spec ops scorpion), and gold scorpion is my fav
Once he does Sub-Zero I really hope he won't be predictable and put Sub-Zero's base deception design as number 1.
I used to love playing scorpion ( as scorpion ) on the mk 2 arcade and seeing the orangish tint lol , not my favorite but definitely nastolgic, the minds behind the entire franchise is top tier and have so many badass options
I watched the announcement trailer… it did not have scorpion.
The base design was the suit for the animated films MK Scorpions revenge and MK Battle of the realms
We went from fatalities to costumes?? Cool.
MkX Klassic skins are by far my fave for each ninja
I definitely disagree with the Mk9 placement tbh
I have been waiting for this Video for a Year and while it was Challenging and Difficult it's was Worth the Wait and in the Makd that you did a Fantastic Job NickPakPadyWak,Scorpion is a Character with Great Design,Sure he has some Stingers and I'm Not a Fan of the Other MK11 Scorpion Designs,But I Love the Majority of Them,MK1,MK2,and MK3are Classic and Nostalgic that are Impossible Not to Love,MK4,Injustice,and MK9 are so Underrated,MK Deception Alternated and Armageddon are Good,and My Personal Favorites are MK Shaolin Monks,MK9 Alternated,MK vs. DC,MKX Gold,and Equally the Best Ones of them All MKX and MK11 Primary Skins.
Deadly Alliance is best costume.
Speaking of blaze blue,could you rank the astral finishes from the series’s latest game.
Ok, this might sound really dumb but my favourite scorpion design is is mkx default skin. MKXL is my first ever mortal kombat game so it holds a special place in my heart, my only reason for liking it is purely sentimental lol. Great vid btw! Looking forward to the next episode of this series! You should totally do sub-zero next👀
Yeah
26:37 Wait,Your Telling Me that the Next One will be a Ranked to the Final Challenge on Every Game? 🤔Interesting.
And a fun fact MK Scorpions revenge Hanzo hasashi wears the Hanzo hasashi MKX skin during his origin section of the film which is the beginning of the film which looks nice on him one of my favourites for a casual relaxed warrior human skins
I know allot of people love the mk3 costume but, me personally, I was never a fan of those ninja designs. I actually felt it was a downgrade from the MK 2 look.
I liked the ranking.
Question, does someone consider the character monster, as a Scorpio skin?
I think the suit of mortal kombat shaolin monks is the best of all
It’s so good! The best way to readapt the classic.
Am I the only one who likes the kold War skin
There are a few others I know that do. It’s one I felt was a missed opportunity.
i wonder if gold demon skin will be free once mk1 comes out
That’s what my guess is. I’m really hoping it will be.
Not gonna lie L list
No Ultra L
But like the Bi Han suit in MK9 The scorpion alt suit for MK9 did appear in story mode and I kind of like the alt suit for scorpion from MK9
Best scorpion is MK11 its way too cool
You could do ranking every fatalities of the shokan (sheeva, Goro, kollector and chintaro). I too want to see all costume of Sub-Zero.
Kollector isn’t a shokan.He would work better in a one and done character ranking.
I remember being genuinely shocked by how many people disliked his MK2011 alternate, it remains one of my favorites today.
Am the only one who likes Scorpion Deception costume?
I like it too and it doesn't deserve the hate
My fav is the MK9 scorpion skin
mkX version looks awesome and is my favorite(besides his Hanzo hasashi look). Loved this version so much I even bought to mezco action figure.
6:58 16:14 I hear someone knows about Primal Rage 2.
You sure are right! Love the OST, but I wish it got a revival somehow. I talked about it again in Top 10 Guests for MK.
Something of Scorpion having a hood fits him so well
I love it too!
Never realised Scorpion had so many costumes!
He is Ed Boon’s favorite after all.
Not bad for a start of the series; kudos for giving Defenders of the Realm some credit! Maybe do an Episodes Ranked?
Do mileena next
Love to cover Mileena on All Costumes Ranked! Thanks for the request!
