When MK2 the arcade first came out, Kung Lao was already a legend, so everyone at least wanted to see him in action, let alone want to master him in game play.
When I was younger I always thought Kung Lao was just as important as Liu Kang because I only played Mortal Kombat Shaolin for awhile and in that game they are the 2 main protagonists. Also I only used to play with Kung Lao coz his moveset was cool
you are not the only one, me and my friend used to play shoalin monks all the time. I also thought he was a "protagonist" character just like Liu Kang. I don't really like how Liu Kang gets all the attention now, just turned Kung Lao into pee pee poo poo.
I actually hated shaolin monk for retconning his character to be jealous of liu kang. After that they always made him out to be the jealous guy, and still continue to make him an obnoxious guy till the current game, where as he was more of what Raiden character is now in the current game.
Yeah canonically Kung and all of the other heroes died at the hands of the Deadly Alliance. Then Onaga raised them from the dead and out them under mind control. Which was broken after his death at the hands of Shujinko.
Cronica should ask reptile to join her because reptile wants to bring back his race I mean they could have done that reptile would not refuse to join Cronica if it means he gets a change to bring back his kind
Prediction: MK12 and Warner bros MK2 will come out October 8th next year on the 30th anniversary. Technically this year I was the 30th anniversary but carry a year bc no one is born a year old lol? I'm 28 and was born October 9th and MK is one of my favorite game series ever. So sharing a birthday with one of the greatest games in history is an honor. (And John Lennon and his son and Eddie Guerrero)
18:57 Jax’s arms in 2021 film look like the Terminator’s arms when he’s lost all the flesh and is just left with the titanium skeleton. And those arms on Jax just look so wrong as they’re so thin
This man deserves WAY MORE RESPECT
Yes preach 🙏
Mortal kombat needs a whole comic series so that it can be shown and all the fighters can be fleshed out.
I think you mean "fleshed" out.
Fact’s bro
They have a comic series.
@@Nicpick multiple over the years. They always end up canceled and non canon.
@@Calvansbagoftricks
That's lame. They should just be considered parallel universes now.
Him and that freaking hat
In Mortal Kombat 11 playing a really good Kung Lao user is probbaly the most dangerous person to play.
I’m one of those users I’m also dangerous with Nightwolf
How could Raiden and his Earth Realmers NOT see Shao Khan approach Kung Lao?
@iamthatiam9971 Maybe because they are immortal brothers and can’t predict each other’s motives unless it’s shown to actions and precise predictions
My favorite mk character of all times and ever
NIGHTWOLF! AND WE NEED A KILLER INSTINCT VS MK SOMTIME THIS LIFE ND A BLOODY ROAR REMAKE
@thegreatjohndough6266 That would be way dope compared to MK vs DC. It was just stupid putting overpowering characters like Superman in the game

A true legend I could tell he lost the spotlight to liu kang
@pierrebuieii3908 Only one champion can represent the Lotus 🪷 society just like Reigns/Jey USO in the bloodline sadly
Kung Lao rocks!
He was pretty cool in the movie.
Why do they keep doing him so dirty though? Lol
@michaelknight4099 Because Liu Kang is the tribal chief and face of The Lotus 🪷 society and Mk franchise. Kung Loa is Jey Uso basically
Why hasn't anyone done a Kung Lao vs Captain America what if
No it's awesome
@cedrichollowell856 Go to comic/ game versus RUclips channel get it popping. But Capt America accomplished more feats beyond human limitations.
Kung Lao neg diffs cap lol

When you unlock scorpion and sub zero I would play sub zero cause he was the blue guy like kung lao
@@XoCaliburn Brother I'm the same way 😭. Atleast I'm not the only one.

Kung Lao was kinda the protagonist in MKDA… and then… a wild Shujinko appeared

So
The deadly alliance design was intentional as he appeared that way in kung's ending as well.
history of kung lao / great kung lao they are both in mk 12

@nichhodge8503 I guess they tried to make it realistic to modern times.
His look is from the movie big trouble in little China
@anthonyburton4691 Or little kid in Red Sonya movie
I thought Lu Kang Was also a decent of Kung Lao
I know this is a game, but im so tired of the disrespect towards the GREAT KUNG LAO. Writers need to be fired 🤔 😂
The character they kill when they need to progress the plot
Kung lao: "flawless victory."
kung lau looks like the type of character to get beat up by some normal everyday human
Bruh, underrated comment 🤣🤣
Out of curiosity, do you have any non-favorite MK characters?
Hotaru comes to mind.
And Dvora.
Damn Kung Loa he took so many L’s
**BATTLE OF THE REALMS IS MUCH.....MUCH....MUCH WORSE.** >
We need a marvel level movie for mk
@thegreatjohndough6266 Yeah if they can get passed fears of making game cinematic heights
Glad I didn't watch that crappy movie. They did Lao dirty.
**BATTLE OF THE REALMS IS MUCH.....MUCH....MUCH WORSE.** >
8:45
That kung lao is not the kung lao the champion its hes descendant...
Bo Rai Cho = Borracho (drunken in Spanish)
💙❤️🤍

No his origin is death and every nether realm game
