Thank you for checking out this long-awaited video! I hope you enjoyed it! Stick around to find out who will be covered next on this channel. It’s another highly requested group of people.
I personally like the Cold War skin. To me it sort of looks like an urban legend that soldiers would talk about during that time period. But that's just me.
Yeah I loved it when I was younger, but now I’ve grown and see all the problems. I think it would be be better if he’s skin was a little bit burnt, like if it was burnt from a bomb. And the chains look cool but it would be better if there was something under there
13:41 Mortal Kombat 9's Scorpion base skin is my personal favorite. It was the first skin I ever played as in a Mortal Kombat as a whole. I find it to be really amazing. Idk about you guys, but that skin is #1 for me.
His Injustice design is actually my most favorite look of the character. Second would have to be his MK9 base design, which they definitely made even better in MK11.
MKX is my personal favorite, I love how, I guess ninja like, it looks. I also really like the samurai motifs in his MK11 default and I also like the scorpion details in his MK9 default. His Deception skin is also amazing
Clearly the best start to a new series. I cant help but to feel special because this series debuted on my birthday lol. As always A1 content here. Thank you for taking your time to make sure the content stays great for us. Your the man Nick!!
Gold scorpion is my personal favourite and I almost always rock it when playing MKX. Also I’d love to see more costume rankings particularly with reptile, milena and barkka
I gotta say Nick I’ve been waiting for this video for a long time and it’s definitely as good as I was hoping! I was actually surprised that the injustice skin was ranked so low. That’s not to say I don’t disagree with your list in anyway but I think we were all thinking it’d be in one of the top spots. Based off your recent poll I’m gonna say sub zero will be next and I can’t wait to see where this series goes. You’ve earned my subscription😊
I may have not liked MK11 for a couple reasons but I will say the base classic skin for Hanzo is EASILY my favorite that he’s ever worn! Looks awesome! Also I actually really like DA’s inferno skin. Could just be nostalgia tho.
MK11 Scorpion gotta be my favorite, not just the design, but the character as a whole... The way he still driven by anger, but he controls his anger now, he isn't just fast but he is also methodical and more technical NRS really done a god tier job designing Hanzo in MK11
Ok, this might sound really dumb but my favourite scorpion design is is mkx default skin. MKXL is my first ever mortal kombat game so it holds a special place in my heart, my only reason for liking it is purely sentimental lol. Great vid btw! Looking forward to the next episode of this series! You should totally do sub-zero next👀
Amazing video 🤩 one small thing I'd note is that it's kinda hard to see the details in some of the combat clips because it is so dark. You might want to consider filming those on more brightly lit stages in future rankings (where possible), especially for the less brightly coloured kombatants 😅
Number 26 💯 i agree Number 24 i dig it Number 23 i dig it cause it different Number 22 This is blasphemy 😱😱😱 top 3 💯 Number 21 cool looking 💯 Number 20 😱😱 whaaat?! Injustice design is fire Number 19 i like it for what it was 👌🏾 Number 18 ohhh come on its decent lol Number 17 umk3 TOP 5 oh my goodness Number 16. Yeaah its ok Number 15 replace like what omg 🤦🏾♂️😫 lol i like red adaptation to his current look tho Number 14 BLASPHEMY OMG WTH top 3 lol Number 13 yeah its badness that it should've been higher on the list Number 12 badass good top 10 Number 11 another top 10 Number 10 NOO Number 9 its cool Number 8 should be Number 1 or 2 Number 7 its cool but not top 10 Number 6 to 5 nah Number 4 💯🔥🔥🔥 Number 3 mk2 🔥🔥🔥 Number 2 OMG the render version of him ultra 🔥but the gameplay version of him hated it #1 yeaaah but i wouldn't this as number 1
Honestly his primary in deception is one of my favorites. With a few adjustments (like a different mask and smaller shoulders) I think it could easily be my absolute favorite.
My personal favorite is the MKX tournament skin , it just looks really cool and is just a better version of the MK9 skin , especially with the ninjutsu swords
In my opinion the blue coloring underneath the yellow ruins Scorpion’s MKD alternate/MKA primary costume for me personally, I just don’t think blue colors of any kind belong on a Scorpion costume. Other than that, I do have a lot of nostalgia for it
I'm not sure how familiar you are with the concept arts in Deadly Alliance, but the neat part in terms of just reusing assets to make something new. Inferno Scorpion's entire outfit from MK:DA is just making use of his original design before it changed appearance to his primary costume bodywise.
Thank you for pointing that out. For whatever reason, Scorpion is the only one where the art and game have different designs. I decided to highlight both in the segment-which I should’ve mentioned beforehand. Thankfully, when i cover the more characters later, this won’t be an issue. Thanks for pointing that out!
I used to love playing scorpion ( as scorpion ) on the mk 2 arcade and seeing the orangish tint lol , not my favorite but definitely nastolgic, the minds behind the entire franchise is top tier and have so many badass options
I'm just laughing at the "just cause I ranked them low doesn't mean I don't like them" but if you check the chapters it litterally says "skins I don't like"
If I had to pick Favorites, heres how I would rank them: MK3 is my fav. Klassic skin (Like the more slim feel of it compared to the first 2, and doesn't have the weird hood of 4) Deception/Unchained is my favorite 3D era skin (Nostalgia, and also I really like how it's mostly black, the bulkiness of it is cool to me since he's not wearing literal knight Armor, and I really like the padded texture some parts of it has), MK11 Netherrealm Rage is my favorite NRS era skin(The Red mixes so well with the black and yellow, the mask on this one is also the best out of these 3). If I had to choose between these, it'd be Deception/Unchained partially because that was one of my first videogames, also I just like Armor on nimble characters for some reason.
I have been waiting for this Video for a Year and while it was Challenging and Difficult it's was Worth the Wait and in the Makd that you did a Fantastic Job NickPakPadyWak,Scorpion is a Character with Great Design,Sure he has some Stingers and I'm Not a Fan of the Other MK11 Scorpion Designs,But I Love the Majority of Them,MK1,MK2,and MK3are Classic and Nostalgic that are Impossible Not to Love,MK4,Injustice,and MK9 are so Underrated,MK Deception Alternated and Armageddon are Good,and My Personal Favorites are MK Shaolin Monks,MK9 Alternated,MK vs. DC,MKX Gold,and Equally the Best Ones of them All MKX and MK11 Primary Skins.
The only rule I’m confused about is MK 11’s customization you said they were going to be no DLC skins on the list and yet you included the Cold War skin from Mortal Kombat X and earlier you said you would put the classic skins on one entry.
I personally liked the MK9 alt scorpion skin the way it is. I remember not being able to decide which costume to pick between default and that one because the two were my favorite. Though I didn't really like the MKX scorpion design, I played the Klassic, Tournament or Hanzo outfit.
I think you're gonna have to make a special exception to the "no klassic skin" rules for some characters... and I mean specifically Reptile in MKX. Unlike other characters, who just... look like their previous appearances, Reptile gets the ninja clothes but he still has the green scaly skin and face, even though in MK9 he did just have human skin
Your vids are really engaging!! Thanks for this content! Suscribed for more!! MK fan here from Argentina! Your editing is just perfect for the content.
His DA costume is my favorite. It was the only game where he was my main. Though a lot of that has to do with my two mains Ermac and Liu Kang not being in the game. The DA costume is not overly done and fits the ninja motif.
And a fun fact MK Scorpions revenge Hanzo hasashi wears the Hanzo hasashi MKX skin during his origin section of the film which is the beginning of the film which looks nice on him one of my favourites for a casual relaxed warrior human skins
My favorite one of all time is the base skin from mk9 the mask and the rest of the armor I was so happy when they brought this too mk11 tho It was immediately bought
Completely agree wit the ermac list, Lil iffy wit the yoshimitsu suit, but this list pissed me tf off how are the 4 coldest scorpion suits not placing in the top 5 let alone top 10

I personally like the Cold War skin. To me it sort of looks like an urban legend that soldiers would talk about during that time period. But that's just me.
I can't believe ANYONR dislikes that skin lol
especially the alternate color for it
Same the Cold War styles are cool but I like the mk9 scorpion design a little more ngl
Totally agree
Yeah I loved it when I was younger, but now I’ve grown and see all the problems. I think it would be be better if he’s skin was a little bit burnt, like if it was burnt from a bomb. And the chains look cool but it would be better if there was something under there
13:41 Mortal Kombat 9's Scorpion base skin is my personal favorite. It was the first skin I ever played as in a Mortal Kombat as a whole. I find it to be really amazing. Idk about you guys, but that skin is #1 for me.
Its also my fav
It’s the best
I agree, it's nostalgia to me it's a good design overall and placing it on 14 really is insulting
Also mine but I also think his second design is awesome
Amen
Mfer really went and put the best Scorpion designs on the bottom 10 😭😭
Exactly 😭😭😭
Lol deadass
Yeah, he wasn't kidding when he said "he wasn't" a Scorpion fan.😂
while agreed i still think his mk11 is one of if not his best design
I’m literally screaming 😭😭😭
His Injustice design is actually my most favorite look of the character. Second would have to be his MK9 base design, which they definitely made even better in MK11.
MKX is better in my opinion
Mk9 was SO GOOD BRO that's the best skin from that game
Besides the mk1 remake those are equal
Deception and Injustice are my favorite ones
The opponent variant names for mk11 fights are hilarious. Love the content.
Thank you! I’m not sure if they’re teasing something or not.🤔
My Favorite Scorpion designs are:
• MK Deception Primary skin
• MK Deception Alternate skin
• MK9 Primary/2nd MKX Alternate skin
• MKX Primary skin
• MK11 Primary skin
• MK11 story mode skin
never rate again🔥🔥🔥
Good rule set. MK 11 would take a LONG while for each individual one (and they ware pretty much pallette swaps in of themselves.)
I agree
Scorpion's Deadly Alliance Base Costume has always been my favorite 👌
Most ninja looking one
MKX is my personal favorite, I love how, I guess ninja like, it looks. I also really like the samurai motifs in his MK11 default and I also like the scorpion details in his MK9 default. His Deception skin is also amazing
Lol deception has always been my fav design. The mask, hood, shoulder pads, everything
I think the MK vs. DC costume is actually his best. Just enough detail and sleakness but doesn't go over board or look too busy.
His MK 9 outfit is the most overrated MK design. It took MKvsDCUs excellent design and made it too try hard
Fire (no pun intended) video! I'd love to see more of these.
Thank you so much, Oddity! I’d love to do more of these too. Stay tuned for those!
@@the_NNPW Time to chill with a Sub-Zero costume ranking after all of the burning from Scorpion, haha.
@@cvmaniac7286 oh, I have so much to say about my favorite fighting game character. Stay tuned!
Clearly the best start to a new series. I cant help but to feel special because this series debuted on my birthday lol. As always A1 content here. Thank you for taking your time to make sure the content stays great for us. Your the man Nick!!
Happy birthday man
The Deception one is literally the best .And makes sense in his situation .
For me my favorite Scorpion outfits are:
1- Injustice
2- MK9
3- MKX
4- MK11
5- Gold
Shaolin Monks and MKvsDC has Scorpion’s best designs to me. Honorable mention to his 11 look tho I could really do without the red.
Gold scorpion is my personal favourite and I almost always rock it when playing MKX. Also I’d love to see more costume rankings particularly with reptile, milena and barkka
I gotta say Nick I’ve been waiting for this video for a long time and it’s definitely as good as I was hoping! I was actually surprised that the injustice skin was ranked so low.

7:23 While this Skin doesn't Fit Scorpion,it does with Rain in MK11.
Awesome video. I wasn't sure if it would be as good as the fatality videos but it might be even better
When i first saw the infrared costume I thought it was a mod. Like, I didn’t think a triple A developer could make that harsh of an eyesore.
I couldn’t believe it either. I had to put on some blue light glasses to continue recording that footage. It hurt my eyes so badly.
I may have not liked MK11 for a couple reasons but I will say the base classic skin for Hanzo is EASILY my favorite that he’s ever worn! Looks awesome!
Also I actually really like DA’s inferno skin. Could just be nostalgia tho.
MK11 Scorpion gotta be my favorite, not just the design, but the character as a whole... The way he still driven by anger, but he controls his anger now, he isn't just fast but he is also methodical and more technical
NRS really done a god tier job designing Hanzo in MK11
He’s been my favorite since 1993. 😌
Not bad for a start of the series; kudos for giving Defenders of the Realm some credit! Maybe do an Episodes Ranked?
Ok, this might sound really dumb but my favourite scorpion design is is mkx default skin. MKXL is my first ever mortal kombat game so it holds a special place in my heart, my only reason for liking it is purely sentimental lol. Great vid btw! Looking forward to the next episode of this series! You should totally do sub-zero next👀
Amazing video 🤩 one small thing I'd note is that it's kinda hard to see the details in some of the combat clips because it is so dark. You might want to consider filming those on more brightly lit stages in future rankings (where possible), especially for the less brightly coloured kombatants 😅
Thank you for your feedback. For the next character costume ranking, I’ll consider this to make the viewing experience better!
Number 26 💯 i agree
Number 24 i dig it
Number 23 i dig it cause it different
Number 22 This is blasphemy 😱😱😱 top 3 💯
Number 21 cool looking 💯
Number 20 😱😱 whaaat?! Injustice design is fire
Number 19 i like it for what it was 👌🏾
Number 18 ohhh come on its decent lol
Number 17 umk3 TOP 5 oh my goodness
Number 16. Yeaah its ok
Number 15 replace like what omg 🤦🏾♂️😫 lol i like red adaptation to his current look tho
Number 14 BLASPHEMY OMG WTH top 3 lol
Number 13 yeah its badness that it should've been higher on the list
Number 12 badass good top 10
Number 11 another top 10
Number 10 NOO
Number 9 its cool
Number 8 should be Number 1 or 2
Number 7 its cool but not top 10
Number 6 to 5 nah
Number 4 💯🔥🔥🔥
Number 3 mk2 🔥🔥🔥
Number 2 OMG the render version of him ultra 🔥but the gameplay version of him hated it
#1 yeaaah but i wouldn't this as number 1
>Mentions scorpion should be wearing a gas mask in the cold war skin
>He's wearing a gas mask in the skin
Wants scorpion to be more designed
Scorpions designed “too much”
Scorpions balanced “boring”
I think MK9 is my favorite, it's simple, not too flashy, but elegant at the same time, it feels like his MK2 suit but evolved
Honestly his primary in deception is one of my favorites. With a few adjustments (like a different mask and smaller shoulders) I think it could easily be my absolute favorite.
I think it is probably safe to assume that any character that has an Infrared Skin is going to have that one as the lowest ranked one.
My personal favorite is the MKX tournament skin , it just looks really cool and is just a better version of the MK9 skin , especially with the ninjutsu swords
That’s my favorite, too!
In my opinion the blue coloring underneath the yellow ruins Scorpion’s MKD alternate/MKA primary costume for me personally, I just don’t think blue colors of any kind belong on a Scorpion costume. Other than that, I do have a lot of nostalgia for it
I'm not sure how familiar you are with the concept arts in Deadly Alliance, but the neat part in terms of just reusing assets to make something new. Inferno Scorpion's entire outfit from MK:DA is just making use of his original design before it changed appearance to his primary costume bodywise.
I love his MK9 alt, personally. It's up there with OG Ninja
Fun fact: Scorpion’s alt skin from deadly alliance is playable in the mobile game for……. Some reason
not exactly, the skin in the mobile game is umk3 scorpion with the skull head
I remember being genuinely shocked by how many people disliked his MK2011 alternate, it remains one of my favorites today.
Fantastic video 👏👏👏 great presentation and description. More more more 😁
We not gonna address that the Shaolin Monks Scorpion has 2 different designs? One for teh cinematics and one in gameplay?
Thank you for pointing that out. For whatever reason, Scorpion is the only one where the art and game have different designs. I decided to highlight both in the segment-which I should’ve mentioned beforehand.
Thankfully, when i cover the more characters later, this won’t be an issue. Thanks for pointing that out!
I used to love playing scorpion ( as scorpion ) on the mk 2 arcade and seeing the orangish tint lol , not my favorite but definitely nastolgic, the minds behind the entire franchise is top tier and have so many badass options
Deception Scorpion could work if you take the mask of the alternate costume and remove the shoulder pads
I'm just laughing at the "just cause I ranked them low doesn't mean I don't like them" but if you check the chapters it litterally says "skins I don't like"
Thanks for pointing that out. I went back and changed the chapter to something more fitting.
I like his MKX based design but yeah I agree it needs improvements
The Alternate Costume that Scorpion has in Mortal Kombat Deception reassembles the same as the one from Mortal Kombat 4
Mk9 base scorpion will always be my fav
Something of Scorpion having a hood fits him so well
I love it too!
Your reasoning for each costumes makes so much sense, Nick
LETS GO!!!
Never realised Scorpion had so many costumes!
He is Ed Boon’s favorite after all.
You put the best costume (Deadly Alliance) at number 16. I'm literally crying and throwing up. lol
Best? Lol nah cringe asf
We went from fatalities to costumes?? Cool.
Hell yeah
Once he does Sub-Zero I really hope he won't be predictable and put Sub-Zero's base deception design as number 1.
Hey man how are you just want to say another good video as always you really should have more views and subs
MK9 is OG Scorpion in my eyes.
My top 3 has to be MK1 Scorpion, MK9 Default Scorpion, and MK11 default Scorpion.
Good picks you have there!
This video was great! Can't wait for the next Costume Ranking.
If I had to pick Favorites, heres how I would rank them:
MK3 is my fav. Klassic skin (Like the more slim feel of it compared to the first 2, and doesn't have the weird hood of 4)
Deception/Unchained is my favorite 3D era skin (Nostalgia, and also I really like how it's mostly black, the bulkiness of it is cool to me since he's not wearing literal knight Armor, and I really like the padded texture some parts of it has),
MK11 Netherrealm Rage is my favorite NRS era skin(The Red mixes so well with the black and yellow, the mask on this one is also the best out of these 3).
If I had to choose between these, it'd be Deception/Unchained partially because that was one of my first videogames, also I just like Armor on nimble characters for some reason.
The 24 costume reminds me ofkabal
23:30 It Also has Deadly Alliance Inspiration.
I have been waiting for this Video for a Year and while it was Challenging and Difficult it's was Worth the Wait and in the Makd that you did a Fantastic Job NickPakPadyWak,Scorpion is a Character with Great Design,Sure he has some Stingers and I'm Not a Fan of the Other MK11 Scorpion Designs,But I Love the Majority of Them,MK1,MK2,and MK3are Classic and Nostalgic that are Impossible Not to Love,MK4,Injustice,and MK9 are so Underrated,MK Deception Alternated and Armageddon are Good,and My Personal Favorites are MK Shaolin Monks,MK9 Alternated,MK vs. DC,MKX Gold,and Equally the Best Ones of them All MKX and MK11 Primary Skins.
The only rule I’m confused about is MK 11’s customization you said they were going to be no DLC skins on the list and yet you included the Cold War skin from Mortal Kombat X and earlier you said you would put the classic skins on one entry.
Idk if I missed seeing one, but what about scorpions injustice skins?
MkX Klassic skins are by far my fave for each ninja
I personally liked the MK9 alt scorpion skin the way it is. I remember not being able to decide which costume to pick between default and that one because the two were my favorite. Though I didn't really like the MKX scorpion design, I played the Klassic, Tournament or Hanzo outfit.
MK9 is my favorite
That is a good looking one.
Mortal Kombat 3 was the best design I don't care what you say scorpion never looked so cool.
I think you're gonna have to make a special exception to the "no klassic skin" rules for some characters... and I mean specifically Reptile in MKX. Unlike other characters, who just... look like their previous appearances, Reptile gets the ninja clothes but he still has the green scaly skin and face, even though in MK9 he did just have human skin
I guess Noob Saibot is slightly different too? Since his klassic skins don't look like just shadows either
Please keep going on this series!!
Thanks. I’d love to! Stay tuned for an announcement coming soon!
@@the_NNPWmaybe don’t if this ranking was that horrendous
I can understand the complaints about the alt skin being too bulky but default mk9 scorpion is peak
Funny how people have very different opinions! The Deception skin is one of my all time favorites. Cool video, though!
This guy sounds like a calmer MatPat
Thank you!😊
Speaking of blaze blue,could you rank the astral finishes from the series’s latest game.
The base suit for deadly alliance is super cool one of my favourites
Exactly
I have been waiting for a video like this!
The base design was the suit for the animated films MK Scorpions revenge and MK Battle of the realms
Your vids are really engaging!! Thanks for this content! Suscribed for more!! MK fan here from Argentina! Your editing is just perfect for the content.
You could do ranking every fatalities of the shokan (sheeva, Goro, kollector and chintaro). I too want to see all costume of Sub-Zero.
Kollector isn’t a shokan.He would work better in a one and done character ranking.
The base mkx design is legit how i always imagine scorpion
Infrared scorpion being dead last came as absolutely no surprise to me. It's a stupid, gimmicky character skin that didn't need to exist.
Oh yeah. I never liked it, ever!
Good video, Nick. I'm agreed with you. Personally, MK1's design rates higher in my heart. It was the first design that I knew.
Nice job. I agree with you about all these costumes.
His DA costume is my favorite. It was the only game where he was my main. Though a lot of that has to do with my two mains Ermac and Liu Kang not being in the game.
The DA costume is not overly done and fits the ninja motif.
I think the best version of the mm11 biker flames suit is the bad to the bone, a nice white with hints of red and black is interesting
OMG! I said the SAME thing about the MK 3 designs! They looked WAY too superhero-y!
Thank GOD I'm not the only one that thought that!
Lmfao the thermal skin is literally my favourite skin for him
You are right about the gold skin from MKX it does look similar to the scorpions revenge suit
Never realized how horrible most of his designs were until now.
And a fun fact MK Scorpions revenge Hanzo hasashi wears the Hanzo hasashi MKX skin during his origin section of the film which is the beginning of the film which looks nice on him one of my favourites for a casual relaxed warrior human skins
I call Scorpion's alternate outfit in MK9 the "Wrathful Specter"
22 is absolutely ridiculous. That’s his best look
My favorite one of all time is the base skin from mk9 the mask and the rest of the armor I was so happy when they brought this too mk11 tho It was immediately bought
Cold War skin was cool. Though his mask reminds me of those Q’berts from ocarina of time that spat nuts at you.
Completely agree wit the ermac list, Lil iffy wit the yoshimitsu suit, but this list pissed me tf off how are the 4 coldest scorpion suits not placing in the top 5 let alone top 10
I agree with the number one spot
VERY COOL TOO MY FRIEND NICK
The rainbow Scorpion skin is underrated.
