Building on top of that, wouldn't it be cool if the opponent tried to get away and Scorpion teleported over, grabbed their head from behind, ripped it off and threw it at their back? Or if he teleported in front of them and did the same thing, before teleporting back to where he was originally?

How about grabbing their head.THEN teleporting,bringing the head with him and leaving the body to fall over,then light the head on fire,and throw it back at the body.Causing the whole thing to light on fire.

i thought it was the most brutal fatality yet, i mean that is torture. i hope that they discarded his arm rip and this is only one of his fatalities.
i am getting sick of hearing "that fatality sucks", its like everytime a fatality comes out some has to bitch about it.

Here we go again! 24 more days of complaints about fatalities. By the way, Scorp's fatality kicks ass.

My only complaint is that I think the cracking sound of his neck is kind of weak, I'd want it to be more bassy so that you hear it and FEEL it like in your chest. Maybe just make it louder and turn the bass up on it, so that when you hear the bone snap its just like...Oh my God!

No, it would've been brutal, theatrical and dramatic. Neck breaking is so fucking anti-climatic and stupid.
He rips off two of your limbs, and what's the big finish? HE BREAKS YOUR NECK. It's lame.
Look at all of the great fatalities. They had some mutilating ending. Kung Lao's slice in half, Sub-Zero's Spine Rip, even Scorpion's own toasty. You can show a neckbreaking in a PG-13 movie, that to me, makes the fatality lame. But of course, this board is full of Scorpion fan bois, so no one would ever say anything bad about it. Personally I think Ashrah's fatalities are 10 times cooler than this dud.

I couldnt really disagree with you more.I found it awesome.He spears an arm,off it goes.Same with leg.Leaves the guy hopping around,completely helpless.Then scorp walks up to him,seeming very cocky,and just snaps his neck.I see nothing wrong with it,besides the fact that scorp usually isnt cocky,and he was in this.BUT it makes it that much better.

hopping?....was he hopping?,i think he was just standing there?,ok maybe he was hopping ,but just in one place,not around in a circle or somthing,yeah...thats it...he was just in one place cause then scorp would not have been able to just walk up to him ...but anyway I was like ...huh?...that all?..its over?,dont get me wrong when i first saw it I was like turing my face to one side at the ripping of the arm,and leg,its just I was expecting somthing else after that...not just the head snap...it seemed incomplete to me...unfulfilled potentail was lost there,I'm sure we all could've done somthing with that leg and arm right?......somthing right?...*looks out into the crowd*....right?

After he rips off your arm and leg with his spear, they couldve atleast made him finish you off by doing his toasty fatality you. That wouldve been alot better IMO. Seeing your opponent burn to death while hopping around with one leg and one arm waving around.

OMG, I can just picture that, LOL. But I like Scorp's new fatality the way it is. Personally I feel he vindicated himself after that so-so arm rip fatality.

It's nonsensical though, you don't think it's an anticlimax? He breaks their neck? It's too realistic. Fatalities should be theatrical, Dramatic, and fatalities like this one, which involve multiple mutilations should build on each other.
Mileena's is a perfect example; rip off the leg and knock off the head with it. Scorpion breaking their neck makes no sense.
If he'd impaled them on their own leg, or disemboweled them or something it would be good, but the neck break is the least violent of the three attacks which makes it very anticlimatic.

The arm rip was awesome. It had an actual dramatic build up. You rip off the arms and then you knock of their torso with the arms.
That's what a fatality with two parts should be like:
Part 1: Violent
Part 2: EXTREMELY VIOLENT
this one is just:
Part 1: Violent
Part 2: Violent
Part 3: meh...
there's no pay off. It's a lame fatality, and I won't be using it much. Please tell me someone here has the intellectual capacity here to atleast understand why I think it's lame, whether or not they agree with me.

Actually, I love it. Scorp incapacitates his victim, then breaks his neck. Neck-breaking is something that hasn't been done in Mortal Kombat till MKD(that I can remember).
It makes more sense than most fatalities, IMO. Wouldn't one cripple his enemy before he did some tiresome finishing move? Anyway, I think it was executed pretty well.
Isnt Tanya's MK4 fatal a neck breaking?I havent seen that fatal in a while,but im pretty sure it was.

hey matter of fact just to show you how dumb the neck breaking end was.....Tanya has a specail move in MK4 where she jumps on you shoulders and commence to break you neck with her legs,by just twisting!!!! then rolling off..i knew there was a reason I hated the ending..thanks Wolvey for helping me realise this....

Exactly, it has so much potential. I'd rather see him do something cliche like decaptitate them than break their neck.

So far, I think this is the worst new fatality that we've seen. Just random violence as opposed to following a logical or climactic pattern.

If I may I would like to quote a famous shakesphearen actor when he said, "WHAT YOU TALKIN 'BOUT WILLIS!" I think it's great, although it is a bit odd the guy's still standing, however I LOVE the whole THING. Mostly cuase A. It's classic over the top MK AWESOMENESS, and B. it involoves Scorps MY MAIN MAN!

Well my favorite Scorpion fatality in any MK is when he summons all of those other "clones" of himself and they run at his opponent and then the screen goes black and you hear the opponent getting beaten to death.
The thing I noticed that just seems weird to me is that obviously Scorpion is using a harpoon with a rope on the end. The question I have is, why is he using his spear like the Movie Scorpion?

A clones fatal in 3D would take up WAY too much space.And I dont want another shitty cencored fatal,I hate those.

IMO, Scorpion's "Spear Decapitation" Fatality from MK:DA is just awesome. Strong, brutal, painful and gets the job done.
This "rip off arm, rip off leg than break neck" shit is just boring. It's like the MK team ran out of ideas, so they have to exaggerate everyrhing while making it dull. Want to do something good for a change ? Bring back some CLASSIC Fatalities !
