@@TheTipchris but sub-zero is correct, because the lin kuei are chinese assassins, while the shirai ryu are ninjas because they are from japan. the reason why sub-zero and scorpion wear similar uniforms is because the founder of the shirai ryu is a former lin kuei.
@@MikeLabsYTt's based on historical fact, actually. The Lin Kuei are heavily based on Chinese mercenaries who largely operated in Feudal Japan. Later, their "descendants" took on their practices, and became ninjas (hence the rivalry with the Shirai Ryu in MK - One of their members was called Takeda (who Kenshi's son is supposedly named after), who defected, and passed down what he learned when he returned to Japan). The Lin Kuei are supposed to be literally ancient and more obscure, hence the running gag of calling them ninjas (Quan Chi did this, too (on purpose), heh, heh).
The old MK canon back in the bios of the official strategy guides and old games bios refer to him as "the ice ninja" so technically they're ninjas by the writer's own canon.

@eseehCgiBehT essentially ninjas. They literally operate and dress like ninjas. Even if u still decided to be unnecessarily technical, they are ninjas. They are literally based on the legend of Chinese ninjas that go by the same mame. Japanese shinobi (the real ninjas) took up the practice from Chinese teachings. Even if u wanted to get more technical, it doesn't matter. Because the original game literally called them ninjas. Ninjas were what was in mind when the devs created them
@Carlito Cartel Welcome back bro 🤘, yeah !! That's true But I don't think that would be possible , NRS would never want to do that. If SubZero can be defeated, he can be defeated by only one i.e. Scorpion
Tbh I think nether-realm made a huge mistake having a Cassie defeat shinnok and it truly shows in mk11 I mean she isn’t as strong as she was before. I don’t think they will repeat the same mistake again having a special force member defeating a former elder god.
Bruh i just noticed that Cassie's drink says "Mokap" And There was a T "hsu hao" poster in the bg when mk9 flashback was shown in one of raiden's chapter
@imedgy4600 In the Mortal Kombat series, Shirai Ryu are the Japanese ninja clan with Hanzo Hasashi serving as a ninja grandmaster. There are no such samurais for Shirai Ryu. On the other hand, Kenshi is a Ronin who protects innocence in the Earthrealm. Most samurais use katanas for the battle, while ninjas have ninjutsu, blades, shurikens and kunais.
Just to remind you all, our 30+ year old Mortal Kombat story takes place in a totally DIFFERENT IMAGINARY UNIVERSE. John Tobias (MK co-creater) purposely bases Sub-Zero and on a book that he was inspired by. This inspiration came from the controversial book China's Ninja Connection by Li Hsing, which "posits historical evidence for the existence of the Lin Kuei and their influence on the Japanese ninja. I was aware of there being some controversy about the author’s claims. So when we split the character in two for palette swaps, I thought it would be fitting that one was of Chinese origin and the other Japanese to kind of embody the argument." Now obviously ninjas in our real world with legit evidence only come with records from Japan, they have non in China's history. So comparing reality with fiction makes little sence. Currently in the new MK game that has just recently been released, their universe has been re-written and the original Sub-Zero from the very first MK, Bi-Han (who actually played as Noob Saibot) is now actually playing as Sub-Zero (not his younger brother Kuai Liang). Infact Kuai Liang is actually playing as Scorpion! So in this MK Sub-Zero and Scorpion are literally brothers... Chinese brothers of the Lin Kuei. There defenitlu still is parts of the Shirai Ryu ninja clan from Japan in the new Mk1 if you have played. Definitely in the story and even has a special interesting add to the game on the outside. But Hanzo Hasashi is basically absence to most of the game. But yeah, literally in a universe that has just been remade and changed time, I'd say their could be Chinese Ninja warriors. Look at all the other crazy stuff that has happened, lol.
Lin Kuei Does Not Dress like Ninjas. Ninjas dresses like Lin Kuei.

Pretty sure that Lin Kuei don’t realise they’re ninjas, even their fighting style and skill in sneaking are legit ninja

MK11 just exists to counter act that tbh.
Plus, Kuai Liang was trained by not only his father but also Bi-Han
Direct reference to mk mythologies.
