GOAT - MK9 for me MK1 look? - it’s not menacing enough for me. I like the green and black, but the head gear is giving Lolita Nurse vibes. The wheel doesn’t always need reinvention.
Mk11 one is my fav (Mostly the one of the story mode, But since he's not in the list, The default) And the mk 1 is simply weird, I don't hate it, Yet he feels like a different character Great tierlist! Noob is my fav character of the game and the video was fun to see
@@FAiRWAYx mk 11 had the best skins because it has updated versions of all past masks and different hoods and clothing options I made the best ones I had 6 presets of insane customs top six possible combos bat man who laughs looks goofy
MK11.... all of his customizations (not the knight helmet) were flawless and completely badass. Bro was literally Death himself. I think this was the best embodiment of his title as "the wraith."
@@mugzy07 Facts. His best design by far. His default mask with the bones? Insane. His intros go hard af, too. The shadow rises from the ground before he walks out of it. He pulls a sickle out of his chest as he casually flips it in his hands walking forward like it's just another day at work. 😅 The ghostly whispering voice. Best version by far. I just wish he was more prominent in the story.
I hate mk1 took out all of customization I mean that had intros outros 3 gear pieces .. you can criticize the gameplay all you want but that downgraded customization so bad in mk1 it’s pathetic
Yeah this youtuber is a FIEND for klassic skins Personally I prefer the characters to be different, and while their color-swapped variants are cool and nostalgic for some people, I would choose characters having their own unique style and appearance any day 🙏
I doubt that. The plan was to bring back Sub-Zero in MK2 because character turned out to be one of fans favorites. But everybody knew he was killed by Scorpion in MK1. Seems like a good reason to add new Sub Zero lol.
My favorite thing about the classic skin in mk9 is that if you chose that and classic smoke as your partner in tag battles, Noobs shadow would be smoke instead. Always loved that little detail
This was a pretty good tier list.. At first, I was gonna say Noob Saibot's primary costume in MK9 is the goat, but your reasoning for the MK2 klassic MK9 costume made sense, tho. But yeah, awesome tier list.
Over the years I've come to dislike Noob's Deception costume. Mainly because of the skin. He should always always be completely pitch black, giving him a skin color removes the mystery and undead factor. Luckily his alternate is way better.
I actually love his Deception design to be honest. Pitch-black skin should be the norm, but I think the more human-like design actually works so well. It also dehumanizes Smoke further in comparison, showing the power imbalance between the two.
@FAiRWAYx I have to say though I don't care for Smoke's default design, the robot look. I think it clashes with Deception's tone and looks a bit silly especially next to Noob, not as cool as the other cyborgs in 3D. I'm one of the ten fans of his sentient smoke cloud alternate design though. I wish I could use that costume alongside human Noob. Unrelated but was the Cyber Sub-Zero/Noob fight in MK9 a reference to Noob/Smoke? Hmmmmmm. 🤔
Great tier list. I’d put MK9 default as GOAT and MK11 default in S, but I ain’t mad about their placements. Noobs MK1 alt looks terrible to me and I wouldn’t put it any higher than C.
Wish you would have included some of his mk11 alternate designs lol. More value in those than mentioning the difference between umk3 and MKt noob hahaha. Great video though!
I love Noob Saibot because of the concept of having a clone or ghost type fighting along side with you, it’s so interesting (and yes i do very much like JJBA)
Deception alt is my GOAT, MK9 default is my #2 You've been in my algorithm for a while, and now I'm glad to hit that subscribe button after sitting down to watch this vid. Much love, from Canada. 🙏
Excellent takes on the classic costumes. I’m not high on the MK11 Noob skins at all but other than that, the newest is okay. This guy def definitely knows what he’s talking about overall
Yeah I initially had MK11 in the B tier because I don’t like the dangly bits on his hood but it’s still a pretty menacing design. Thanks for the kind comment 🤝
Mk9 was the best one to me gameplay His stance His flashy shadow combos His kicks look so good And he wasn't sluggish like mk11 noob His voice actor was perfect
Mk9 default is definitely goated imo. However I will say mk1 wins for best voice. Noob with regular skin in mk deception was pretty underrated imo also.
I'm here after the story expansion to tell you that...the story expansion sucked. You get some pretty cool skins from it, but the reason I'm here is to explain the green. When turned into Noob Saibot, Bi-Han was corrupted by chaos magic (which is represented in a greenish color). There is an alternative skin that brings back the purple, but you gotta do some grinding to get it. Don't know if this helped, but I'm leaving this here👍
Goat for me is MK deception alt. It was my first encounter with noob saibot and its a core memory, especially playing the arcade ladder as a kid and fighting noob-smoke as the sub boss used to make me think they were so badass
My theory for why they chose Kano for MK3 Noob is because his outfit is the most similar to the older male Ninja vest, and being bald can give the illusion of a ninja hood when it's all silhouetted anyway. I really like MK11 Noob, it gives him kind of a ghostly look which not only fits his lore but also parallels him to Scorpion in a way. And the sickle weapon was a nice touch as well. I'm looking forward to seeing MK1 Noob in action, his design is neat so far.
23:11 im nit entirely sure but i figured it has something to do with the soulnado from mk9. It could also explain why his portals are green as well. For me, the best two looking skins is the mk9 default, and mk11 11 default. Mk11 skin moves away from the ninja look and more of a grim reaper look which suits the character story wise. To have him go from being a ninja to being a grim reaper that replaces the netherrealm hellspawn Scorpion, when hanzo reclaimed his soul, makes sense. Best looking ninja fit for noob is mk9, best looking skin story wise is mk11 skin.
Quan chi’s resurrection magic is purple and havik’s is green which has been my head canon Different people resurrecting him means different secondary colors
For the MK 11 skins you dont have to do every single color but justbthe default color for each skin which for noob base skins there were 4 of them in total you could've added. Just a thought.
Mk11 noob was the best and I don’t like the green but I think the switch is the difference between “quan chi perfected me” and “he perfected me” referring to chaos
Mk4 noob alternative skins are very cool in my opinion. The shirtless noob with the skull head is like hes a ninja with like a metal upper body and skull while the other kinda looks like hes weaing like a winter jacket thats black and white obviously and the face blacked out as if he was wearing a mask
1. MK11’s Vision of Hell skin. Should’ve been on the tier list of Batman Who Laughs in my opinion because it’s not really Noob 2. I like MK1’s Noob a lot actually! The mask is a bit iffy but they add a hood in one of his alt outfits.
I don't feel like an S tier is supposed to be that cluttered 😅 I'd knock down some of them to A and some of the A ones to B just so the S tier could have that illustrious feel
I would go with MK9 main and MK11 main with the xiaong mask (hope is well written) as the bests (not counting mk3 trilogy one because they're always my favs for ninjas) MK1 Noob should been all black (even his aura, just his eyes white) but it is what it is
The *only* thing I disagree with is the GOAT decision, I think the purple eyes having pupils just looks off, but other than that it is a perfect tier list. One might say that FAiRWAYx has perfected it... it has no flaws
Innovation - a lot of armor on ghosts and shadows. For what? For a change, our ninja is a samurai, a knight and a liquidator rolled into one! Isn't it logical and strange? Come on, this is MK - we don’t even always have a tournament here.

Question #1 - What is your GOAT Noob Saibot skin?
Question #2 - What are your thoughts on Noob’s MK1 look?
GOAT - MK9 for me
MK1 look? - it’s not menacing enough for me. I like the green and black, but the head gear is giving Lolita Nurse vibes. The wheel doesn’t always need reinvention.
I love the MK 1 cause it reminds me of a Monster energy can 🧝♀️
Mk11 one is my fav (Mostly the one of the story mode, But since he's not in the list, The default)
And the mk 1 is simply weird, I don't hate it, Yet he feels like a different character
Great tierlist! Noob is my fav character of the game and the video was fun to see
MK9 for me.
@@FAiRWAYx mk 11 had the best skins because it has updated versions of all past masks and different hoods and clothing options I made the best ones I had 6 presets of insane customs top six possible combos bat man who laughs looks goofy
Noob and Ermac have always been the most enigmatic characters to me
When I play mk9 I usually use them both for a tag team tournament
What's going to be his customizable gear in MK ?1 I hope is his mask
Ermac, Noob, Sektor are my favorite characters in mortal kombat so I completely agree though I wouldn't call Sektor enigmatic.
Ermac and noob are both my main s and favorite character 👍👍👍👍
I usually tend to learn and use all ninjas, but my 3 favorites are: Ermac, Noob Saibot and Rain
MK11.... all of his customizations (not the knight helmet) were flawless and completely badass. Bro was literally Death himself. I think this was the best embodiment of his title as "the wraith."
Mk11 deserves S tier

Primary MK9 Noob Saibot is the best skin in the entire series, if you disagree, you are a menace to society.

He's gonna have hard ass lines when he comes out. I can't wait to play him.

But yeah, awesome tier list.
Thanks bro!! MK9 and MK9 Klassic are just so close
LOVE your videos it has that cozy old RUclips feeling noob saibot has been my main for a decade now lol
Remember when Mortal Kombat brought interesting and extremely kool kharacters and not just people with guns?
Yeah you’re not wrong lol
The reason I don't like Cassie or Eron black is because of that.
We have takeda and Geras no?
Well we have Geras ⏳🐐

Yeah I should’ve ranked it lower to be honest, it did not feel right.

For male charas ( every palet swap ninja ) and females chara ( especially leotard )
100%
25:41 than transition was insane😂
Lmao I’m glad someone else appreciated it
Great tier list.
I’d put MK9 default as GOAT and MK11 default in S, but I ain’t mad about their placements.
Noobs MK1 alt looks terrible to me and I wouldn’t put it any higher than C.
Man Street Noob Saibot was the best one, absolute GOAT.
I appreciate how you added Tournament edition.
I was making a favorite skin video too. including his movie outfits.
Respectfully disagree, MK11 skin to me bridges his ninja past with the wraith present. I think the greatest skin of all time.
That’s fair! I like your description of it.
Nah mk11 one looks cringe
Mk 11 noob is my favorite
In MK 11 he looks cringe. His face doesn't even fit in the mask.
0:19 I was watching this in a dark room by myself and made it worse
LMAO
Wish you would have included some of his mk11 alternate designs lol. More value in those than mentioning the difference between umk3 and MKt noob hahaha. Great video though!

His color should still be purple and Ermacs should still be lime green.
True, mint green powers on current ermac doesn't look right.

Bro you are on point damn 👏👏👍
Totally agree with you about the goat decision 100%
the subtle shimmer of noobs eyes in Shaolin Monks when he moves around goes hard.
Yeah it’s pretty cool. Probably should’ve put it in A tbh
yo your meme game is top tier. subscribed.
Tbh, my only problem with the Mk1 skin is the head piece. But other than that, it’s amazing
Anyone else see Noob switch between 3 skins in the intro?
Good eye 👀
Facts 🔥 I did 😂.
Heres a fun fact, the alt colors for classic mk2 noob saibot has his shadow replaced by smoke
For mk9*
I'm Noob Saibot, Master of Shadows and the Black Air Force Ninja!🥷😤
The purple eyes what make the outfit legit. Solid picks
Yes!
Mk9 was the best one to me gameplay
His stance
His flashy shadow combos
His kicks look so good
And he wasn't sluggish like mk11
noob
His voice actor was perfect
Honestly a fair take. MK9 Noob was probably the best all-around version of the character
Mk9 default is definitely goated imo. However I will say mk1 wins for best voice. Noob with regular skin in mk deception was pretty underrated imo also.
MK1 Noob’s voice clears 100% and I agree on Deception. That look is menacing as hell

MK9 is my GOAT Noob Skin.
I like Noobs MK9 outfit his cowl reminds me of BATMAN "MASK OF THE PHANTASM" for some reason
In MK11 he sounds like an 80s cartoon villain, Dr Claw from Inspector Gadget.
Yeah he does lol
i still have my MK Deception Noob action figure from 2005!
Oooooh! Now i see where mk1 got the cat ears from on the umk3 ninja skins🤯

Noob design in his mk11 ending is also really good
Yeah that’s some medieval shit. I love it
Curious to know if you would ever do a reptile tier list, since his appearance over the games have been a roller coaster, always love your tier lists!
Yes I’d love to do a Reptile tier list. I have lots of opinions. I appreciate the support!
Mk11 noob will always be GOAT status
MK9 BASE IS GOAT TIER WHAT THE FUCK. But the retro is the only other agreeable option.
It was so tough to pick between the two
Batman Who Laughs is GOAT Tier in my opinion 🗿
I respect that
Fun fact if you use the second color on mk2 noob in mk9 smoke becomes your clone
Facts! Such a great Easter egg
I'd like to see the mk9 skin become available eventually, but im also interested if nrs make some original ones for him in mk1
I agree on both!
So you saw they added his mk9 hood headgear???
This was a great vid, I really hope you do one for reptile soon
I definitely will
Bro mk4 ninjas look so badass noob with blue eyes so sick

I forgot which one it is but the mortal Kombat on the wii and on mk9 was the two first I played and love these games

Love the MK11 base skin and would have put it in S. He just looks like a proper wraith.
That’s fair!
Nope MK9 noob with the hood is the goat don’t argue with me
I can’t argue with that
