      Scorpion was only a badass in the old timeline. Ed Boon took advantage of this reboot & try to make him Greater than any of the characters especially the Sub-Zero brothers. He took everything from them & gaved it to Scorpion & honestly it's starting to get dull especially how bias he is. This is why MK game lore was better when John Tobias was involved with game lore.

      Lol exactly. I was just thinking this. Would have made for a more interesting story and a multi layered character. Maybe have him act like he's siding with the bad guys, having the argument with kuai liang about their dad to make it seem real (and bc he does feel those things) and then later show that he did it to destroy the enemy from the inside. His frustration would still be there and it would be a great set up for him to actually betray them in the next game. That way it would have so much more impact

      He was not evil. He was an assassin ready to do evil things sure. But he was more of an anti-hero.
      Even his anger as Noob Saibot was somewhat justified since his death at the hands of scorpion was greatly orchestrated against him.
      It's only after the reboot with MK9 that he was turned into a boring one dimensional evil rule the world type villain.
      Bi-Han is my favorite character ever since I played in the 90's. And I was shocked by how poorly his character arc was treated in MK1. I seriously thought he was tricking ShangTsung into trusting him, since him swapping sides was comical at best.

    Bi-Han could’ve worked as a villain if they set him up more properly. A villain that means well, but is misguided. Specifically his motivations and reasoning. Like have him start as a hero frustrated with the Lin Kuei ways and traditions maybe because of the many Lin Kuei warriors that died during their service to defend Earthrealm and the many that survived may have trauma due to the loss of their comrades and loved ones. I don’t know have his father be very hard on Bi-Han since he’s the first son and the next in line to become the Grandmaster of the Lin Kuei. I’m thinking like they received no compensation for their service to Earthrealm. Something like that. Or have Bi-Han as more of a Anti-Hero with different methods that are extreme but thought that those methods could benefit the Lin Kuei with good intentions instead of selfish and evil ones. Both ways would have worked with proper execution. This just reminds me of the character assassination of Sindel in MK11. The way Bi-Han acted reminds me of Sektor. If anything Sektor would make more sense if he was in Bi-Han’s role. I’m a fan of Scorpion, Smoke and Sub-Zero, I’m glad the writers were able to handle Scorpion and Smoke very well despite the changes of Scorpion’s identity, but how could they messed up Bi-Han?

    • @koko-hh2bq
      @koko-hh2bq Год назад +15

      Sometimes, villains don't have to have reasons to be the way they are imo. Bi-Han is a villain who thinks his intentions are the best for the clan, but ultimately pushes him to this path of greed for power. Shang Tsung only inflamed his already greedy and prideful personality more by offering him a tempting alliance. He hates his clan being "shackled" to Liu Kang and possibly hated his father for allowing the clan to turn out this way.

    I think Bi-Han was lying about letting his father die. The loss still possibly affected him and could be the reason behind his cold nature.

    It's great how the Lin Kuei and Scorpion and Sub Zero were reimagined. Kuai Liang as Scorpion shows how much he shared characteristics with Hanzo in previous titles and with Smoke's ending it is revealed that a hungry boy that was taken in as one of the first disciples of the Shirai Ryu is Hanzo, NRS may very well have Bi-Han be killed and become Noob Saibot, and have the new Hanzo Hasashi to be the next Sub Zero in a very dramatic and poetic turn.
    Though what is somewhat plothole-y is Bi-Han's disposition. Shang Tsung and Quan Chi had their planned destinies and fate completely altered because of interference by Shang Tsung, but Bi-Han was already an angry, defiant, ambitious and quite essentially traitorous and evil character even before the influence of Shang Tsung - he was already annoyed and frustrated at the role of the Lin Kuei and Liu Kang before the events of the game; either Liu Kang oversaw and just didn't bother with making him less of what he was or Liu Kang just made Bi-Han that way and that's kinda strange. That the Lin Kuei is going to be a threat again with the Cyber Initiative and that Bi-Han is now an independant force could have entirely been avoided if Liu Kang just... decided otherwise.

      How did this Scorpion become the new Sub Zero? Because this shows how he got that scar on his face, which he has as Sub Zero in MK 11, meaning Hanzo took his place as the new Scorpion. Thats the part I need to go more in depth with. It makes sense just missing pieces to the story.

    It might just be me, but I have a theory that Bi-Han here will become Cyber Sub Zero given that he helps in starting the Cyber Initiative.

    I believe Bi Han hated how the Lin Kuei defended Earthrealm, a realm divided by many governments, for centuries and gained nothing in return. After seeing his ending, it is likely he will create a nation run by the Lin Kuei with the Cyber-Lin Kuei (actual androids not repurposed human beings) to be their army. The question is if Bi Han will become the new "Vengeful Scorpion" in the form of Noob Saibot when he gets betrayed by Frost and Sektor.

    I feel a lot of people have been wondering about why Bi-han turned evil and as a psychology student and armchair psychologist I feel the need to shed some light on why this happened
    I do believe that the story is very well written just because of the fact that it captures the small moments that you really should pay attention to.
    Bi-han is a man who fundamentally feels that everyone is against him, that no one respects him and that no one deserves sympathy for being a voice against his deepest fear that he is alone.
    This frustration inside bi-han was on the verge of a nuclear disaster, all it needed was an obviously evil manipulative psychopath to convice him that HE was right and that no one else really matters except him because he is the only person he can ever really trust. This then turned to rage and an unquenchable thirst for revenge,he had to show everyone HE was worthy, HE had value, HE was someone. He basically turned into a maniacal narcissist, clouded by delusions of grandeur.
    He is a really realistic character because this is something that happens in real life. People turn vile and evil because of their childhood. Children need to feel loved and supported and if they dont its a risk that they may turn their path towards evil. Its unlikely but they are a dog without a leash and they REQUIRE guidance.
    I have to admit I rushed through this story because I at first wanted to look at it from a technical standpoint, how does everything fit together, how does it work? But I really missed the human side of it, as I often do ngl😂

Even after the betrayal, he does not seek to kill Bi-Han, likely because he sees Bi-Han's grievances and frustrations being the driving factor behind his madness rather than mere petty greed even if he condemns Bi-Han's actions.

Maybe in the next game, we'll see Bi-Han get it.

    I still believe Bi-Han can be redeemed. Some of his intros show him regretting his trust towards Shang Tsung, realizing Shang took advantage of his vulnerability that stemmed from his frustrations. Shang manipulated him into thinking they both shared similar problems. Bi-Han thought Shang had sympathetic reasons like him, but didn't realize in time that he was not like him. There are also intros where he apologized for being indirectly involved in Sindel's death (including the fact that he indirectly betrayed both Earthrealm and Outworld) and that when he trusted Shang, Shao, and Quan Chi, he earned nothing. Bi-Han tried so hard but didn't realize it would lead to him making problems for himself. Bi-Han essentially made an honest mistake.
    Ashrah even states in one of her intros that Bi-Han is capable of redemption.
    I also hope Bi-Han and Sareena end up together in the current timeline.

    Its agree to make Bi Han back to noob saibot under Quan chi command or the cyber lin kuei,
    But kuai Liang deserve better , he couldn't have not restored him back, his heart pure evil.
    We see the next MK timeline, this time its won't change

      I wouldn't say his heart is pure evil, I think he's like early Vegeta in DBZ. Sub Zero isn't going around killing everybody, he's blinded by pride hense wanting his clan to be top dog.

      BI Han has never been pure evil. Bro’s just misguided. He confirms in some of his clashes that he’s not on board with shit like the flesh pits.

    Whether he's an undead warrior framed for murder or alive and well

    I don't really see him as "evil". I feel like its most so whatever aligns with his interest, he will do it. Cause even with his intros with Sub-Zero, even though its animosity, he still calls him brother
