I've played the Arcade edition but never did see any morphs, guess I'm heading to the local theater they got MK2 and MK3...addicted to it lol.

I think you missed Tsungs point. He was never about fairness. If it takes overwhleming to kill Kang, than so be it. He is no Sephiroth with delusio-nal visions of grandeur and epic showdown with his nemesis. Shang Tsung is evil incarnate but human with all of its flaws.
Bringing Quan to kill Kang is rather a show of intellectual strenght and advancement. To prove this, look on history. NO single warrior, soldier
with significance has ever risked duels and fair-play. Knights, samurai,
mamelukes etc. have all used dirty tricks throughout their history.

Ah so I suppose Bruce Lee didn't play fair then either lol. You and I are at war Chrome you fired the first shell in my Human Smoke topic. Smart or not a man must maintain dignity rather than become desperate and rely on a newcomer like Quan Chi. Until I see Shang Tsung kill an important MK character without others help I stick by my opinion of Shang....or shows off that demon form he was supposed to have in MK2.

10/10
the original MK badguy
And i agree with most of Chrome's points. So check out his post.
(Im too lazy to repost it)

Tsung has/had his life. I don't think he cared about dignity. He did what neither Shao Kahn nor Shinnok could do. He killed Earth's greatest gobbler...warrior.
Shang Tsung is a great character. A vicious killer, powerful sorcerer and excellent martial artist. He has been in MK since the begininng and has always pleased me. Even when he was played by an American with a bad wig (MK3) I still loved him. Once of my favourites. The Soul Stealing thing is brilliant. His design is excellent especially in MKDA and his story is always great. Tsung > Chi. Tsung: 9/10

John Turk is my favorite 2D Shang Tsung.

Shang Tsung does himself proud scoring an excellent 88.5 ... I can't believe he missed the 90's.. He is now 3rd in our Top 10 Knocking Reptile out and only beaten by Sub Zero and Shao Kahn..
So Today's Character is.......Stryker
The Average Cop guy who found himself going up against all kind of weird things in MK3, It seems though he was better prepared for Armageddon..

one of the few mortals.
i love him 10/10

sigh...2/10

9.5
Stryker is very underrated..
I played a rom of MK 3 Recently and i 0wn3d Motaro and Kahn using Stryker..
Also the idea that his just a normal Cop in a game with Robot's, 4 Armed Women, Ice Men, Sorcerers, Horsemen seems pretty cool to me.
though i dare say im one of the few who goes for the Blue shirt, Backwards Cap outfit over the new Armageddon one.
None the less.

Stryker is lame, shoddy and boring.
1/10

one of the characters that have to wait for MKA but i aint a fan of stryker but I dont hate him either he had some good moves and I liked his fatality wear he puts the bomb on the opponent and they explode 7/10

Don't care about Stryker. 5/10
You may note that the only character I gave 1/10 is Mokap. :P

10/10
I dont get why everyone hates him he is a good character.
probably my fav character.

7/10 stryker as potentional but since he only had 1 game need to see what they do with him in mka, but after e3 it looks like that the mk team is gonna do him justice

Stryker isn't that bad... I liked him in MK3/UMK3/MK:T and I'm looking forward to play with him in MK:A
His only problem is his storyline, which I think is very weak
I'll give him 6.5/10, but it can be higher after MK:A (or lower, who knows?)

Never had much interest in Stryker, but I never hated him either. So far it looks like he has very much improved in Armageddon and I cant wait to play as him and see what he has become. Maybe I’ll change my mind about him after that, but for now he just have to do with an average 5.5/10

Stryker was the first character to kick someone's ass with guns and a nightstick.
I believe that deserves a 10/10.

Stryker in MK3 was fun to play with
sadly him and most of the other new MK fighters are the reason for the drop in term of popularity that the MK franchise suffer around 1995
mostly because back then he didn't seem to fit at all
But for some reason I can,t wait to play as him in MKA
So he gets a 6,9/10

hes a kind of character you like or dont like. i personally am in the middle tho, so...
4.5/10

Stryker's iight. Ima give him a 6.

5/10
I don't use Stryker often but I don't care much about him and he is ok I guess. I used to thought he was the worst character until Mokap was introduced...

Stryker.................. horrible character , and bad moves, so Stryker gets a 2/10 from me, because I got a laugh out of his Animality, in Mk Trilogy, when he turns into the pink T-Rex, Which just reminded me of Barney.

Don't understand the hatred...but don't really understand the hype either.
6/10
