Ever since deception, It no longer seems that Scorpion is the same solely revenged influenced spectre he’s been in the previous games. Could this new elder gods champion title open gateways into much more opponents?
Here are a few examples, many more could fit the requirements.
Possible foes while being the elder god’s champion
Onaga-
His prime focus, his power was increased to destroy Onaga.
Shujinko-
The cause of Onaga’s release.
Baraka-
A minion blindly serving Onaga, if they fought, more than likely it would just be because Baraka would be in his way.
Hotaru-
He follows what he believes in no matter the consequences. He sided with Onaga because he thinks Onaga would bring order. Since Onaga is trying to make a “perfect” one realm, maybe Hotaru sees that if no chaos exists, then order prevails.
Shinnok-
An angry former elder god that never stops bringing on destruction, if he ever receives the true amulet he would be a dangerous threat to all the realms.
Noob Saibot-
If he conquers the netherrealm, I can see him becoming very power hungry. He doesn’t seem to give a damn about any living being that doesn’t benefit him, so massive destruction would probably happen.
If the Elder God’s enforcer position is like a job and he keeps his personal vendettas, these would be
Foes if continuing his personal revenge quest
Quan Chi- True murderer of his wife, son and clan.
Drahmin- Attempted to put him out and fought many times in the netherrealm.
Moloch- Attempted to put him out and fought many times in the netherrealm.
Noob Saibot- Killed him and he now is transformed into a demon that Scorpion helped create.
Remember the above is spectulation, do you believe Scorpion is a lost cause or do you believe he’ll have an important purpose in the upcoming future?
