Liu Kang is the prime example of TRUST THE PROCESS!!!
Nah prime example of run it back I can do better
On everything! He was looking crazy from 97-2011,turned into a white boy in 2019,then was given his true form in 2019 😂😂😂
Do you know the name of this sound?
@@Mr.Notsoniceguy?
1995 top
Took him 30+ years for his feet to stay calm...
Ikr
What can you say, he's got some happy feet😂😂
Hahaha....😂😂😂 Trueeee
Damm 😂😂
He's modeled off of Bruce Lee that's why
Liu Kang's progression from humble main protagonist to 4 time Mortal Kombat champion, to undead vengeful zombie to scorned revenant to humble god & protector is underrated character development.
Strongly agree with your point I remember getting deadly alliance and seeing Shang sung snapping our 4 time back to back mk champion’s neck , most definitely one of the most brutal moments in mk history
Exactly. And yet some idiots have the nerve to call him "boring". My ass lmao
@ducho9398 This right here and facts to OP. all true
Making him a zombie was stupid as hell though. They fixed this by making him a “revenant” instead and it was a lot better
@@Lordmustardon Jesus that pissed me off., then in the Mortal Kombat Armageddon intro when his zombie form came back to run the fade with Shang Tsung was so hype.
The fact that 1995 graphics looked way better that 1997 is wild
Exactly 1997 looked ugly
3D at first was a mistake for the industry to switch too. was a complete downgrade of artistic integrity for years.

@@keevajazz6286They had to if they wanted to stop using actors for the roles. MK1-MK3 used actors. They had to switch to 3D. They made it perfect now
@@emmanuelasamoahadjei3759 yea? and it was a mistake because they are using actors again for mocap and the fighting animations are better then ever because of it. also a lot of the 2D sprites hold up today wile only the 3d modals in X and up look good.
Liu Kang MK3 was perfect form of martial art
Yeah, that first 3d modle... yikes!
#3 please.
HOUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHH BRUCE LEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

1,2,3 - best mk. lookup "mk2 remix", don't thank.
Those MK3 threads will always be the greatest, I appreciate MK11 for recapturing that retro spirit
MK2: oh that's better
MK3: oh that's good
MK4: GO BACK
I like all of your RUclips shorts about Liu Kang
I like how at the end he was like “ fuck all that constant movement ima stand still”
It's a defensive stance which makes sense now he's the protector of earthrealm like Raiden was.
@@shaqyardie8105Factsssss.🔥🔥
Bro is tired
@@Bigburton3😂
He got rid of his nervous jitters
Liu Kang MK3 had the best stance by far. He just looked like he was ready to kick ur ass. Loved it.
Mk4 is cursed lol. Looks like he's ready to dance
Mk11 the best stance
Yup
@@b.b.s7545He is already dancing lol
MK3 Lui getting jiggy with it
The only Kombatant with consistently great looking stances. 😂
All except X
@@MagicalVaatiEven his on there is good. Fits his more no nonsense Revenant form.
@@MagicalVaati🍅🍅🍅🍅
@@NeoZiggy92 Even with that in mind, it could’ve been more interesting. The revenant even bounces like his normal self at one point while fighting Raiden.
@@MagicalVaatimkx his best personality and combos he was not fucking around
MK11 Liu Kang looked dope as fuck
At last, in MK1, Liu Kang learned how to stand still...
also in MKX
Fr
@@potbor4722 Nah MKX he's still twitching a little, just not as much.
In MKX, he was calm too
In MK2 he doesn't move too much
Liu Kang looks majestic in MK1
1992 or 2023?
He looks like an extra in an unknown Jackie Chan movie
@@daleminchin11842023
@@user-vx1xn3dd2o 2023
These 2 above me are the reason we should just call it MK12
Liu Kang MK3 is definitely the GOAT
*Liu Kang
MK2 is much better!
@@brunobelz not that bad but MK3 is better bro :)
MK2, the 3 one looks like a homeless bum doing some cosplay
@@alexandrecolinet4545most definitely especially those sound effects 😅
Bicycle kick has been LEGENDARY
His mk2 and 3 outfits are the best. Simple yet 🔥.
I think the best one is the 1995 one
Buggin Armageddon was cool
Yeah I don’t think less than 5 pixels mean it’s fire . I get it y’all suck dry for original but things get better over improvement . It’s like hating on the light bulb because it’s too modern n settle for torches
@@ayon875 bros never heard of opinions

from full with energy to calm and experienced.
No. From full of energy and skill to being literally god.
His calmness should instill fear in anyone on his bad side.
"Aye bro I'm getting a lil nervous, why your feet not moving??" 😂
Somebody should be arrested for that 1997 MK4 Liu Kang.
MK4 in general was just shit that's when I bailed. Came back for Deadly Alliance, left again until MK9.
@EricHalverson83 Deadly Alliance is one of my favorites I love the 3D ring movement sucked not having Liu in it but the gameplay and story were solid
Damn😂
With life imprisonment 🤣
@@Funworld99226 lol
Love how up until this latest MK Liu was always in that stance ready to whoop yo ass
Man these ones from mk2 and 3 STILL are the best
100%
❤
Yesh loved his attire in mk3 my favourite.... but the dragon death move in mk2 was the best didnt have that silly led light thing round it
Agree
Definitely💯💯😎. For some reason the graphic was better to me🤷🏽♂️. It actually looked more of a REAL LIFE PERSON STANDING THERE
MK3 and MK11 have that swag.
Facts👌🏽
Deception has that deceived swag. 👌🏿
And MK9
Yesssss
Mk4 Lui Kang look like he took several steps back on his own face
Yeah I was thinking same
Thats just normal east adian features
Just because of switching to 3D render yk :(
Thinking the same thing 2000s look like they took a few steps back why was 3 better than 4 up to x
Liu Kang In Mk9 Is So Good 😎✌️
It's pretty insane how good it looks on the first 3 games with the technology they used to capture real photographic characters.
Согласен
Да, это впечатляет
Не пойму, что может быть реалистичнее фотограмметрии? С тогдашним 3d всё реально откатилось куда-то в полигоны.
That's because those are real people, they hired 2 actors to dress up like Liu Kang, and videotaped them doing those moves. Then the footage of the 2 Liu Kang actors from those tapes, were digitized into the game.
I love how he went from a mobile fighting stance in Mk11 to a stationary defensive stance in MK1
That goes for pretty much all his stances before being a god to. Seems that hes changed ever since the god/thunder/raiden powers
Defense-- earthen realms protector
Who needs a stance when you can create black holes with just a snap
@@fleamarketsnack3280ngl that looked pretty dope to me
Liu Kang went from champion to zombie to ruler of the Neither realm to becoming a Fire God. A legendary MK fighter indeed.
Zombie Liu Kang was chef's kiss 💯
He is a dancing queen, young and sweet, only 17.
Raiden: Liu Kang, DO NOT INTERFERE!!
Liu Kang: [interferes woo’ingly]
the fighting stance in MK1 represents steadiness, clear focus and calm of a God.
EXACTLY! No wasted movement
Broooo.... 😂 y'all ran with that one. Bravo, well done. 👏🏽
@@UnderTheBridgeLiving lol thank you! -clears throat- someones ability to think/analyze is clearly as shallow as a kiddy pool
False God Nephilim Anunnaki repackaged in video game form
liu kang is NOT a God, NO, BECAUSE THE ONLY TRUE AND GOOD GOD IS YHWH JEHOVA
Liu Kang is my MK crush. He looks hot in MK11 and MK1
MK4 : ☠️💀
MK Deception and Armageddon: 🖖🤟🤘✌️🕺🕺🕺🕺🕺
MK1 :❤️🔥🕴️🕴️🕴️🕴️
*Why, is it always the comments with 50+ likes with no replies?*
Mk4 is where all of the fighters is on dr*gs except for reptile
MK vs DC universe:🗑
@@marielamansur6566 I know right the design is trash
@@marielamansur6566 cap bro everything about the game is great especially the story
- Reigned as champion of Mortal Kombat.
- Became the victim of an assassination.
- Was resurrected as an animated corpse to continue fighting.
- Was restored to normal via time warp by a thunder god.
- Was killed again by an Outworld Queen who was resurrected and infused with black magic.
- Became an evil sorcerers shadow puppet.
- Became a time god.
Lui Kang has a serious resume on him.
Sindel didn't kill him in MK9 that was Raiden
@@Soulsnatcher89 Oh you're right. I knew I had a correction coming somewhere. That makes his resume even more impressive, tbh. Killed by a thundergod XD
@TheSixthSLoT oh 100% Lui Kang is the GOAT. I love Johnny Cage but Lui was only ever killed by being overwhelmed by greater odds like Shang Tsung and Quan-Chi or Raiden. Granted JC was killed by Motaro but allegedly he's not that big a threat compared to most defenders? Maybe just bad luck for JC there
Faltou se tornar rei do submundo
Mortal Kombat 3 is by far the Best, oh how I miss the 90's
better at what?
@@Le0zz79-it9wosucking but if it was UMK3 he was talking about then that’s goated
more like the worst
Na the best game is Shaolin Monks or MkX
@@ASHFIGUEROA-ov7cj3d wise sure, 2d goes to umk3
2015 kang was definitely in his club era.😂😂😂 Those moves were too smooth
"What did it cost?"
"Bicycle kick"
This is gold
Hasta mk3 estuvo genial. Después una cagada
😂😂😂
Gold
That 95 to 97 transition hurt 😅
LOL!!!!
Hell yeah
All I could think was “Look what they done to my boy.” I never realized just how good those SNES MK games looked until I’m comparing Lu from MK2 in ‘93 to all the rest…
The MK3 and MK11 are the best. MK3 and MK2 just has that feeling to it. It’s just nostalgically atmospheric. And MK11’s Liu Kang is just the best model of that character.
Yes I know exactly what you mean. Mk 3 takes you back in time
I completely agree with MK3 Liu Kang. So nostalgic and the best hands down. But I'm really liking his design in MK1. The mixture of the blue lightning and red flames on his arms along with the golden eyes looks awesome.
@@antarahibnshaddad7725 It really does. But not only that, the design of the older games just had an atmosphere to them. It’s kinda hard to explain. Sometimes less is more.
@@TheIcarusFalls Agreed, MK1’s Liu Kang is still a great model. For me that’s the top 3rd.
MK2 & MK3 ❤❤❤❤❤
Boy went from being a Zombie to a Fire/Thunder God talk about a comeback
Liu Kang 1995 my favorite❤
He finally stopped all that bouncing around 😂😂😂
because god)
Honestly he should go back to it coz it's what Bruce Lee did
Keep up the best content Brock, you're a trailblazer! 🔥
Liu Kang MK1 to MK11: Dancing Pose
Liu Kang MK12: Serenity
The 2019 and 2023 stances are perfection. You can clearly see the difference of before and after becoming the God of Fire.
From a Martial Artist to a God
The reason he looked different in MK1 is because he was supposed to look more like a Monk. This is why his cartwheel fatality does not make the screen dark unlike the other fatalities.
Mk3 the best 😊
+++++
Definitely
The original will always be my favorite. We didn't have games that looked anything like that before.
Pit fighter???
I always preferred the MK2 and MK3 look
Agreed
🧢
Liu Kang's look of Mortal kombat (1992) is a Bruce Lee's parody, i like it but next games models gave him his own identity
1-4: The chosen one
6-7: Zombie
8-9: I'M BACK
10-11: Revenant
11-12(1) Fire god
Bien hecho, muchacho :'3
That's right, he got murked on 5 😂
I was like where is DA.. oop😂😂
Did him in on the INTRO lmao
Via distraction.
snapped his neck
I remember being so excited to play when I got Deadly Alliance, watching the intro and my jaw just dropping when they killed him. Totally ruined my day.
I played Deadly Alliance the first time and saw that I was *😢ucking heartbroken 😅😅
MK3 really is the greatest of them all.
This comment is gold
We need a Shaolin Monks 2. That was the best MK game ever made.
I think Deception or Armageddon were. I was obsessed w the open world and Mini games. If they ever bring back MK chess online I’ll jizz everywhere
Came here to say that.
@@aurevoirshoshanna900i loved armageddon!!
From Some Monk To Literal GOD.
MK1’s Liu Kang is flawless.
This music is so amazing
Liu Kang : So guys... This is development of my career. 😂
😂😂 Strange…he sent this with his resume.. impressive but we really just need a regular floor manager 😂
mk9: when you look closer at his hand you see this finger sign: 🤙
Had the best look in MK3
Exactly, i don't know why video games characters nowadays have to pack up extreme big muscles and all look like Hulk, very bad looking and not appropriated for fighting.
Title should read "Liu Kang MK1 to MK1"😂
Nothing can beat Mortal Kombat 3
😊😮
Except for MK1.
Imagine someone in the future looking back at this. They gonna think the 00s were some rough years lol but they will think 1997 was beyond.
MK3 was my favourite and imo the most iconic version of Liu Kang
In mk11 the best Liu Kang design
That transition to MK 4 had me rolling 😂
Going from motion capture to trashy gamey engine generation is the downfall of MK.
Mocap was what made it look realistic and stood out from Street Fighter.
MK3 Liu Kang is what got me into learning MMA at a young age
Such a simple design but so incredibely iconic.
MK 11 🔥
He deserved to be a god ❤
Was a huge fan of the first 2 games. Loved that bicycle kick
1997, the designers took the year off and hired their kids instead.
😂😂😂😂
Sheesh
This music background is so awesome
MK1’s character design is flawless. Im in love w the story mode.
Despite growing up in the PS2 era, that MK3 sprite always looked so cool to me
He hit his peak in MK4
No he didnt
?
Fax 😂
Don't worry, I caught the sarcasm.😂
@@mightykaz7686🤨?
"Chains? Nah
Chains?
Ok nah"
After living as a Titan, Liu Kang finally learned how to be still. This might also be his own design for himself lol.
Good job.
Mk1 ele alcançou a verdadeira maestria. Sem movimentos demais, excesso de movimentos, gasto de energia a toa. Se tornou um verdadeiro Mestre
Do u even know how to fight?
1995 pure classic
Old man Kang is really slept on tbh
You gave him the freaking throne room music from mk3 instead of the Wu Shi academy which I don't blame you cuz it got destroyed. And he's the right person to win the mortal Kombat. 👊😎💯
92 года двигается как настоящий человек, если бы не 8 бит графика, это был бы живой.
Потому что это актеры. Настоящие люди в костюмах
Mk3 & mk11 were the best designs for him
MK2 best ever
Mk11 is literally the mk3 version on 1080p 4Kultra 120FPS mode 😂 (mk11 has the exact exact same mk3 outfit but only available through micro transactions smh)
@@supagloo This is it! MK11 is the ameliorated version of mk3's pose 😂
I think my favorite look and stance for Liu Kang is MK11
обожаю музыку из третей части сразу чувствуешь всю атмосферу внешнего мира
This is my best mk song of all time❤ ps1 mk triology days is emotional 😂
Mk3 liu kang is very classy 👏
The 1st and 2nd one still appear to have the most REAL PERSON appeal than the rest. Thats what it was in the early 90s, When that first MK hit the arcade and people saw how real the characters looked. At that time it was like HOLY SH*T it was friggin amazing man. When part 2 came out.. Now THAT WAS A BIG FN DEAL.. To have been playing in the arcades at that time was incredible. Tons of people just watching people play, would put your querter up on the screen to mark your turn cause there would be like 7-8 people there. THAT WAS AN AWESOME EXPERIENCE. THANKS ED BOON
Yeah, MK2 was peak MK. Everyone was playing it. Now, it's a smaller clique and the characters are just rehashed gamey engine generations, not motion capture realism.
MK3’s always been my fav.
The good old music! Those were the days of Mk.
What is the name of the song?
@z9vo4ge9s Shao Kahn´s main theme in Mortal Kombat Trilogy or UMK3 - The pit 3

From voiced by a Turkey to voiced by a man. That's progress.
The Mortal Kombat GOAT!
I bet he would've been his best in Deadly Alliance had he not been killed 😢😢😢😢
I don’t know why, but it seems to me that the characters in MK9 are the best and most brutal
Nostalgia
The first 3 games look great
He lost his Bruce Lee stance to be a god in MK1. 😢
I don't really like how the minimized the jeet kune do attacks in mk1 😕
