When I saw that the first time, I thought Bi Han was going to kill Kui Liang. Just that whole chapter in general, I thought smoke or scorpion was a goner
Your comment gave me a good chuckle 😅 I was so excited, I thought the movie got released on June 26th and not July 26th 😂 I was so sad I went and saw the new Quiet Place movie (it suuuuucked)@Steven_McCrae
The animators didn't have to do that. They could have used his cryomancy as an excuse but they actually animated the knife switch. I didn't even notice it until now. Incredible.
Exactly what I was thinking, he didn’t even have to do it cause he could make another one in his other hand. But maybe it takes a quick second to fully form or scorpion could have heard it forming. Also how to show how talented Bi Han is, can’t wait to see the rematch with him being noob saibot
While yes, Bi-Han is a cryomancer, he's still a trained assassin and martial artist at the end of the day, and that scene proved both his capabilities.
With that pause that gave Scorpion time to be surprised, it made me imagine Sub zero just smiling and laughing instead of attacking with his other hand
@@Ender11037 yeah well beating an armed gunman while unarmed is also technically possible, don't think anyone will believe you when you tell them they had that horrendous accuracy though
Damn, for a minute there, I thought Bi-Han just created a new knife in his other hand when Kuai Liang wasn’t looking! I didn’t even notice the switch at first!
Its almost similar to conditioning in fighting games, where you keep repeating a specific attack pattern and as soon as an opportunity arises, you do a mixup, essentially conditioning an enemy in reacting to something in a specific way and doing something else. Like doing crouching/standing combos and throwing in an overhead attack when he's crouching, essentially getting a free hit/combo
Easily one of the most hype badass scenes out of the whole story. Literally got chills seeing it the first time especially cuz I was wondering how kuai liang was going to end up getting his scar back
How weird, I never noticed it was a actual knife switch in the game, I just thought subzero made it disappear and just conjured another one but but he legit hand to hand passes it, pretty cool
MK1, an awesome game with awesome enjoyable story, and awesome action sequences. Also, Kuai Liang proves to be a formidable Scorpion, and Bi Han is quite a cool villain; no pun intended, btw.
Something else that I think is cool is I don’t think this move was improvised. I think he went into the fight and repeated to same move to teach scorpion “look, this is where the knife is, and this is how I attack with it” so that scorpion gets a false sense of security. Scorpion says to himself “okay, that’s where the knife is and this is how he uses it. I know how to keep myself self.” (As an added side note I’m pretty sure there’s a term for this in fighting games but I don’t remember it)
Also in this switch he doesn't toss it, he makes sure he has it in his left hand before letting go with the right hand. One of the best switches I've seen.
Another cool detail is that scorpion couldn't properly see if the knife really in his right hand because sub zero launched his attack from the sun side and sunlight blocked the view
I wonder if there will ever be a movie or any media that has knife flicking. I'm pretty sure the only time I saw that was some American solder in "Fighter of the wind"
@@ScenicFights I wasnt paying the most attention but from what I gather its about some korean guy in Japan and him learning Kyokushin Karate. I found it from some eminem edit, or mmv?
@@anonymouss1270If I understand what you mean by knife flicking, there is a scene is where John Wick does some knife flicking. I think it’s the Second John wick movie but don’t quote me on that
@@animeanime7849 The knife flicking I am talking about is the one that Logan explained a few times in a few different breakdowns, idk which ones. I think John Wick 2 would be the one cause iirc its the only movie with a knife fight, no JW3 doesnt count because those are throwing knives.
Also in the scene. Bi han also has the advantage because when he launch into a jump attack Kuai Liang got blinded by the sun that's why he didn't notice that there's no knife in Bi han's right arm.
I feel that from a logical perspective, since the switch worked so well that Kuai's face was able to say "oh fuck", Bi han should have gone for a more lethal blow, like maybe something across the abdomen. But obviously for lore reasons he cant, so oh well I guess.
Speaking of knives, u should do a breakdown of the knife redhood used in batman: under the redhood. Either the fight between him and batman or its pros and cons of the knife itself.
i love the face of genuine surprise scorpion has
It was in that moment, Kuai Liang knew he messed up.
@@ScenicFightsyour the goat
My first time watching this cutscene and seeing scorpion go from “oh I blocked tf outta that” to “oh Fuck he switched hands” was insane
"Oh shit, AAAHHHHHH"
When I saw that the first time, I thought Bi Han was going to kill Kui Liang. Just that whole chapter in general, I thought smoke or scorpion was a goner
Bi-Han gets the "Shittiest Sibling Award"
He will get worse

Anyone else thought it was Deadpool vs Wolverine from the thumbnail ??
Can’t wait for that movie !!🥺🥺🙏

That blade switch is nasty
It works well tho
Holy, I didn’t even see the switch until Scorpion got slashed; shows how dangerous knife fighting can be! 😭🙏🏽
That’s why you always run when you have the chance
Same. I always thought he made a new knife.
I thought he did a fake out
Had him shivering in his timbers
Bro 😂
Quivering in his boots

I thought he dissolved it and then made it again when l watched it

@@ChaplainPhantasmhis ice slide when they got to the fortress was just unnecessary
I thought he melted it then formed it in his other hand afterwards
Ngl at first I thought he just formed a new knife outta nowhere it even caught me off guard also one of the best cut scenes in Mk1
fr
M1K is near perfection!
Pun intended
Same
This channel is peak as fuck when it comes to learning anime/fictional fighting styles etc
They really are fantastic at doing breakdowns.
I loved this fight scene so much because of that one visible shot of Bi-Han switching hands.
Brilliantly done.
The knife switches hands like Bi-Han switches sides.
“It appears I have miscalculated.”
-Scorpion probably
With that pause that gave Scorpion time to be surprised, it made me imagine Sub zero just smiling and laughing instead of attacking with his other hand
"ha, you flinched"
What bro was about to hit me with 😭🙏
We need a splinter cell blacklist breakdown
How to win a knife attack with empty hand:-
Run away
(You can't win)
They'll probably talk about it on Viral Hit.
Though I doubt it's impossible.

What about a breakdown of smoke’s introduction with madam bo
Damn, for a minute there, I thought Bi-Han just created a new knife in his other hand when Kuai Liang wasn’t looking! I didn’t even notice the switch at first!

I thought he created another knife damn that detail is actually sick
"I swear, agent, the mask is a business expense."
The way he looked at subzero when the knife wasn’t in his hand
In was in that moment he knew he messed up
How weird, I never noticed it was a actual knife switch in the game, I just thought subzero made it disappear and just conjured another one but but he legit hand to hand passes it, pretty cool
The attention to detail is amazing.
You guys should review "Garouden: The Way of the Lone Wolf" Its another anime that I would think you could make a lot of interesting stuff with.
Nice breakdown 👍🏻
MK1, an awesome game with awesome enjoyable story, and awesome action sequences. Also, Kuai Liang proves to be a formidable Scorpion, and Bi Han is quite a cool villain; no pun intended, btw.
Dang they made that cutscene well. I thought he just formed a new knife 😂
Ngl they made these mortal kombat characters so damn fine 😩😩😩
Gotta love his reaction
“Ha got you bit- wait a second”
Subzero wins!
Nice explanation of the blade switch
That was actually 1 of the cleanest things ever done in mk
"It was at this moment that he knew, he f*cked up"
DID SOMEONE MENTION MY BOI SUB-ZERO 🗣️🥶🥶🥶🥶🥶
I knew you guys would do a breakdown on this best fight scene. ☝️😃
Bi-han: "Made you look"
I don’t know. Why he didn’t talk about it . But you should *NEVER* turn your back from a threat .
Love the " Finish Him " shirt.
Can you please break down some fight enders from Lolipop chainsaw please? Thanks…
Dayum that sneak attack was so slick
Scorpion's realization face is incredible
LETS GOOOO MORTAL KOMBAT VIDEO!!!!!
I was gonna get upset about calling Scorpion "Kuai Liang" but then I remembered in this universe Hanzo is happy
I remember the first time I watched that scene, that shit was cold. No pun intended
And at that moment Scorpion knew…he f*cked up
I had just assumed he made a new knife but that’s a cool detail that eh actually switched hands
That was so cool in that fight scene.
He knew that face he made😮
I love the expression on scorpions face
You gotta do rayla's knives in the dragon prince, their FUN
I legit thought he just made a new one with ice 😂
I honestly thought bi Han just made another ice knife, didn’t even know he switched
Something else that I think is cool is I don’t think this move was improvised. I think he went into the fight and repeated to same move to teach scorpion “look, this is where the knife is, and this is how I attack with it” so that scorpion gets a false sense of security. Scorpion says to himself “okay, that’s where the knife is and this is how he uses it. I know how to keep myself self.”
(As an added side note I’m pretty sure there’s a term for this in fighting games but I don’t remember it)
It is always good to be ambidextrous.
Also in this switch he doesn't toss it, he makes sure he has it in his left hand before letting go with the right hand. One of the best switches I've seen.
Love a sensible spin move
I genuinely loved the story mode in this game
I love how scorpion just stared at the floor when he caught sub-zeros hand. hefore, the dramatic look up
where is scopian iconic "get over here" ! the fire rope
I hope you guys cover some fight scenes in windbreaker, its amazing
Scorpions raised eyebrow gets me tickled
You know didn’t even know it was a switch i thought sub zero just make another one
That was cold.
I didn't think Bi-Han physically switched hands with the ice knife, I always thought he dissolves it from his right hand and reformed it in his left
Another cool detail is that scorpion couldn't properly see if the knife really in his right hand because sub zero launched his attack from the sun side and sunlight blocked the view
It scarred a perfect line up his face but his eyeball was unscathed
Kuai linag:where's the knife
*it was a that moment he know, he fucked up*
the batman socks are throwing me off
As much as i love this scene it also doesnt make sense why he would slash his face instead of ending him
Yeah his ribs were exposed
It seems like bi han wanted kuai Liang to join him. That's why he doesn't kill him.
I doubt they'll kill scorpion that early, but it might be because Bi-Han doesn't want to kill his brother.
Bi han is an asshole but he still cares about his brother.
Can you break down the different versions of deacon St. John’s bass ball bat from days gone
Justo lo que Krauser tenía que hacer
I thought he simply created another one, but damn… he might actually be cold with it
There is a couple of scenes in the new mortal kombat I would love to see you guys break down
Wow, I never noticed him switching the knife, I thought he melted the knife and then just created another in his other hand
I wonder if there will ever be a movie or any media that has knife flicking. I'm pretty sure the only time I saw that was some American solder in "Fighter of the wind"
We need to check that film out.

Oh that’s a good detail ! I thought since he was a cryomancer that he let the other one melt and made a new knife in his other hand
Knowing Bi Han he'd probably think: Drop? Please, I can create more out of thin air
I'll be working this into my guard game for sure
Also in the scene. Bi han also has the advantage because when he launch into a jump attack Kuai Liang got blinded by the sun that's why he didn't notice that there's no knife in Bi han's right arm.
Cool, gonna do that to the bread during breakfast tomorrow.
God I love the masks, they're insane
I need that shirt🔥
Did a switch during a dagger tourni last week twice. Worked well
Scorpion got hit wirh the biggest "Nuh-uh"
I feel that from a logical perspective, since the switch worked so well that Kuai's face was able to say "oh fuck", Bi han should have gone for a more lethal blow, like maybe something across the abdomen. But obviously for lore reasons he cant, so oh well I guess.
I mean Scorpion is also his brother, so he may be subconsciously avoiding killing him.
For the next video. I hope you can make fight scene breakdown for the movie: the roundup punishment baek chang gi knife fight scenes. Great movie
Resident evil 4 knife switch is insane
Can you do the fighting style of vegeta when he was fighting goku in the saiyan saga
Amazing
Imagine if sub had a assassins creed hidden blade that freezes you on impact
That was the moment Scorpion realized that Sub-Zero was a demon.
Cool socks dude
Thank you 💪
