    The most likely characters are Liu Kang, Jonny Cage and Raiden being in Tekken because they are simpler and easier designs to implement in Tekken.

      Funnily enough the story in Tekken 8 suggested Mishimas may have a connection to the thunder god Raiden (from the real life mythology that is) so playing around that idea with the MK version could be fun

    I would love mk in tekken. Sub zero is actually my most requested guest in tekken, if he appears in sf I’d be super happy too. I’m not sure why people say “mk can never fit in tekken and sf” it totally can, Its a lot more palatable to see mk characters in a more censored format than it is seeing say, kazuya or ryu in the mk universe, the mk aesthetic does not fit the tekken and sf characters, which is why mk will never get a sf or tekken guest. The Tekken and sf format/aesthetic DOES fit mk characters though. Not to mention, the injustice games, also get mk characters as guests since they’re both made by NRS and guess what? Since they’re being played in a superhero “kid friendly” format the mk characters are SUUUUPER censored. No fatalities, no blood, no brutalities, and in my opinion it doesn’t take away from the characters at all. They still fit seamlessly. Ed boon is a fan of tekken, harada tweeted once if he could have an mk guest he would choose raiden or sub zero. It’s not impossible and I’ll always hold out hope. Also id like to add MKX actually has been sold in Japan through Amazon, and some people have even claimed they’ve seen mkX sold in stores over there. If you look at the Amazon reviews for MKX in Japan they’re super good, so that’s not just a testament to just how good that game was, but also goes to show people over there DO like the MK franchise. Ik it’s kind of the thing rn to hate on mk and be like “mk is so trash lol, no one wants mk guests” but you’re factually wrong if you feel that way. You can hate on the most recent games sure like mk11 and 1 (although mk1 is a better game imo but that’s a completely different discussion) but the fact is the mk franchise itself is completely goated. Iconic characters, iconic moves, sick ass lore. The recent games haven’t been the best sure but if it weren’t for the recent blunders of NRS mk would be in the big 3 of the FGC where it belongs. So, yeah. Theres still hope for Mk1 too. It’s HOPEFULLY only gonna get better. Mk guests are possible, Ik people like crapping on the games but you can’t deny how iconic the franchise itself is, and sub zero freezing people and making ice clones would be INSANELY OP, ANNOYING, BUT FUN AF AND BADASS IN TEKKEN
    Edit: I’d also like to point out… injustice 2 had NINJA TURTLES😂😂 you could literally have ninja turtles fight sub zero, and you’re gonna tell me we can’t have scorpion or sub in tekken or sf cuz they’re “too violent?” Get outa here!

    i assume you got the "scorpion uses hapkido" from the 3D MK games, but i wouldn't take that too seriously as a indication of what moves scorpion should/does use. The 3D games kinda just gave characters random moves with very little adherence to the fighting styles there supposed to represent.

    As a fan of the franchise I would love to see an MK character as a guest in SF or Tekken. I mean if Akuma can make it into Tekken 7, then I don’t see why an MK character can’t.
    And while were at it, I would like to see other fighting game characters that can fit into MKs gore fest. Like Kazuya or Fulgore from Killer Instinct.

    In My Opinion, *JOHNNY CAGE(MK1)* is the only MK character that fits very well in the Tekken Universe. Johnny in MK1 only uses pure hand to hand combat (no weapons & no projectiles) just like the majority of the T8 roster.

      I really like the idea of Johnny Cage being in Tekken actually. I think you're right, he is a legitimately good pick just because of how universally loved he is. Low stakes, funny character, hand to hand exclusive, really good personality to bounce off other characters. For all my other problems with modern Mortal Kombat, Johnny Cage is the one consistently good thing they have going for them.

  • @TwinT22
    @TwinT22 2 месяца назад +1

    My opinion on how certain MK characters specials could be done;
    LIU KANG: He's the easiest. In fact, you can directly port his moveset with no changes and there shouldn't be any issues.
    CAGE: He's no simpler than Liu Kang, but I don't know any more about his moveset besides Force Ball, Nut Punch, Force Kick, and Force Uppercut though, so take that with a grain of salt.
    SCORPION
    Spear: The spear could function like how it does in MK11;
    + Without heat, he gets a follow-up attack. With heat consumption, he gets a combo opportunity with scaled damage.
    and MK4;
    - Extremely linear, where even the smallest step could evade (Kunimitsu's kunai as an example).
    - Long recovery window on both block and whiff, (launch punishable at point blank range)
    - Using the Spear consumes Tornado.
    Teleport: Like you mentioned, teleport from the front. In fact, we could even get creative with it, and simply add an additional command to attack from the teleport, so we can choose not to. The teleport could be a mobility tool. If we look at it like that, then we could even throw in teleporting to the left, or to the right for positioning or to bait a whiff-punish. That won't cause any issues in the neutral because holding back with re-align the player safely during Scorpion's start-up frames.
    SUB-ZERO
    Ice Ball: Like with Scorpion; Without heat, follow-up damage begins scaling from Heat scaling. With heat, follow-up damage begins Standard scaling.
    + Projectile is mid.
    - Recovers slower than spear on block/whiff; bigger punishment window.
    - Using the Ice Ball consumes Tornado.
    Ice Slide: Eh... honestly, this move isn't cracked, even in it's original game. Unseeable, yes, but you couldn't really get much off of it. So my idea is;
    + Retain it's speed.
    + Properties of a standard slide, but he can perform it even while standing.
    + On hit, knocks the opponent down like Noctis' db+2, and Sub Zero recovers faster on hit.
    - Launch punishable on block (somewhere between -20 to -25).
    - Linear.
    - No heat buff.
    Ice Clone: This could be a parry, like a mix between Jin and Leroy. Here me out;
    + Can parry punches, elbows, kicks, knees, and jumping attacks.
    + When the parry lands, the opponent will be frozen, and Sub Zero will be +14 (standard Heat Engager frames).
    - Failed parry recovers slower than usual, but not as slow as Asuka.
    - Cannot parry throws and weapons.
    MILEENA
    SAI:
    + High projectile with the fastest recovery of all previously mentioned projectiles, but not so fast as to be impossible of whiff punishing.
    - No heat buff.
    TELEPORT KICK: Can be ported as is, but with pushback on hit, so she can recover safely. A nice get off me tool to reset the neutral. She can have a heat buff with this, but don't know what she would get from it.
    ROLL: Low, float punishable, KDs like Law's slide. The move would at most, be annoying, but more risky than anything else.
    Besides Mileena, I can't see any other female characters working out, because I'm certain they would never do Jade's Projectile Invulnerability justice, due to the sheer lack of projectiles in the game's DNA, and Kitana's a bit too... air focused(?). She would need a 2D jump to function as we know her, and I'm not a fan of that idea.
    I'd like to see SHUJINKO, simply to see him with Yoshimitsu's Soul Stealer from Tekken 4. If you don't know, Yoshimitsu in that game alone, could copy an active attack from the opponent and use it against them once.

    I mean sure Liu Kang and Raiden can use magic, but they’re mostly known for their hand to hand combat
    As for Johnny Cage, I actually prefer his MK1 iteration over his classic. That dude is pure martial arts and so much fun to use.
    But that’s my take.

  • @alter_037

    Feels like this is one of those questions where it has a or both “short” answer and “long” answer.
    Short Answer: Yes. Tekken 7 has Akuma and Geese, fighters from 2D Fighting Games, Street Fighter (Akuma), SNK, King of Fighters (Geese)
    Long Answer: Difficult. Iterating and translating characters that are usually in 2D and putting them in 3D is not an easy task. You may theory-craft however you want to how would these characters to be in such an environment like in Tekken 8 but, like Mike said here, without proper balancing and thought it could end up breaking the game.
    Which moves has to be there? Which moves doesn’t? Would playing as Scorpion in Tekken be as any different as Scorpion in Mortal Kombat? Yes and No. Yes, because Scorpion is not bound to any of the usual rules and restrictions he has in NRS games/Mortal Kombat, like Mike had stated. BUT does he FEEL or PLAY like a Tekken character in Tekken 8, even though he is an MK Character is the question. And No, mainly partially due to the Moves he has always have throughout the franchise, the Teleport and the Scorpion Hook. Will they function differently in Tekken 8? Certainly Yes and it comes down to how it is iterated and how it impacts Scorpion’s gameplay.
    Also, Mortal Kombat did have a 3D era but I dunno how much of it any would have an “effect” or an inspiration.
    Mike had already given some pointers in this vid so I’m just gonna some additional bit
    Scorpion:
    Scorpion Hook
    - His hook has to be extremely linear. If blocked from a distance it may be neutral on block or slightly negative. But very punishable if you somehow just casually whipped it out point blank and hoped the opponent wasn’t blocking. It may also be good combo filler for potential wall-carry combos, it might scale since it doesn’t “tailspin” the opponent.
    - I believe you can also use this as an ender. ‘Cause in MKX, I believe Scorpion has animation where this move where he yanks the opponent to him and the opponent face plants on the floor in front of him. I may be tripping but I kinda swear there was something like this.
    Teleport:
    - This could pretty much naturally built in the animation to some of his moves or a special move that allows him to close the gap quicker. Anything else might lead Scorpion to be broken. If this teleport has a follow up moves (moves accessible only after using teleport) , it might lead to 50/50 scenarios.
    Heat Mode
    - Funny mentioned Kazuya ‘cause I’d imagine Scorpion would actually have a heat only move similar to Kazuya’s “shikkue” (I believe that’s how it sounded). It would act as reversal or combo breaker like in MK but deals damage.
    - Cloak of Flames; Dealing damage overtime/chip damage near to the opponent during Heat Mode has to be done very carefully, otherwise Scorpion might get the Injustice treatment.
    - Some of his moves in the Hellfire variation in MKX might only be accessible during Heat. Pretty depends how much of his Demon Spawn aspect gets incorporated in either base or heat form in Tekken.
    - Scorpion Hook would probably have extra stuff, like instead pulling the opponent towards Scorpion rockets himself towards the opponent for big damage and oki (has to hit) or upon hitting he channels energy to the chains and to the hook, exploding the opponent, launching them for a full combo, dealing extra damage than your standard hook combo. However, doing this will no longer cause a re-stand if another hook is used in the combo if this were to be the starter. (Might be strong but again this stuff is only accessible during heat and the hook itself will not gain any sort of tracking even on heat)
    Miscellaneous
    - Scorpion Kameo assist in MK1, where he spits three short fireballs in the air can be added as a combo filler
    - That one rather awkward sweep (Leg Takedown) he has in MK9 and MKX.
    - Might add more just in case if there’s something missing.
    - His flaming flip kick could also be added as an ender or a guaranteed follow up.
    Note;
    - I might think about adding my input on Sub Zero, Noob Saibot and Shao Khan, as in this vid but for now this is all I could think of

    Honestly Sub-Zero, Raiden, or ermac might be the best picks and are pretty do-able, especially sub zero. Just about everything sub does is easy to transfer over and his freeze could be a launcher on hit, could give his slide more frames so it isn't crazy fast and maybe give it a just frame extension instead of an EX meter

  • @jjba3553

    If it were me I’d pick characters like Jax, Sonia and Johnny that are really know more for just their normal martial arts stuff and not mystical magic laser beams or something like that. On the ninja side of it I’d do Smoke more than scorpion or sub since I think it fits his style more than them. A sub without ice clone or ice ball just feels weird

  • @PlanetNateGaming
    @PlanetNateGaming 2 месяца назад

    It's a great idea but the execution would need to be genuine, you'd need MK kharacters to play like your playing them in MK just like how Geese in Tekken 7 felt like you were playing him in King Of Fighters, they can have minor changes but not too many to the point where they just feel like your playing another Tekken character reskinned as a guest character.

    @Impalingthorn 2 месяца назад

    I think Mortal Kombat characters could be integrated into something like Tekken or Street Fighter... But that also comes with the caveat that the main selling point of the franchise, the violence and gore, would be completely stripped. We actually have seen this work (purely on a stylistic level) in Netherrealm's sister franchise "Injustice".
    However, I have pretty extensive experience with all three communities and I don't think either SF or Tekken fans want anything to do with MK. It simply has a bad reputation for most of them and that has only gotten worse with the last few games.
    Now, assuming Netherrealm gets their act together and starts pumping out good games again and they hit a good period and establish a good relationship with Bandai Namco, I think having a character like Scorpion, Kenshi or even Shao Kahn would translate really well into Soul Calibur personally, but right now I don't see it happening. Not for lack of interest, just lack of faith in their current reputation. If anything, associating with MK would be even more poorly received than Street Fighter's recent character reveals. With that reveal, it wasn't that people hated Terry or Mai, it was just the idea of 2 out of 4 character spaces being taken up by SNK characters. Replace even one of those with an MK character and most people would just go "Why?".

    I don't know about this one... MK has a button-press defense style that works for incoming attacks from the front and back, like a teleport punch/kick.
    They can change that to a back-style defense (Street Fighter, Tekken), but how would a character defend an attack coming from behind?
    Also, MK is pretty heavy on the zoning so, I dunno...
    Edit: But if they do manage to make it work and put Scorpion in it, it better be Hanzo Hasashi!
