If this thread has already gone up, i apologize in advance...if it hasn't then read on!

Shao Kahn would without a doubt be one of the most sought after characters if the programmers introduced him into the story line and made him a playable character along with the others in deception. He would have to be given a full line of moves (none of that HAH yelling as he thrashes you with his hammer in MK3). Given his size and sheer "badass" appeal, Shao Kahn could easily make this game so much more anticipated.

For his fighting styles i'd give him these...

1) I don't see him so much as a martial art's expert so a Muay Thai (Jax) / Boxing style would suit him best. He'd be powerful like drahmin.

2) Some sort of wrestling technique like Judo or Aikido. He could be most powerful here

3) Weapon should obviously be the large bulky hammer he had in MK3. He could have combos that include jabbing you with the handle of the hammer and then doing a swing over the head.

Costumes: He should sport the Shoulder spikes and criss cross X over his chest ( http://www.mk5.org/tabmok99/unmasked-shaokahn3.jpg ). Then the pants of like a samurai with the crotch protector. In this costume he'd be unmasked ( see link ). His alternate could be one with the mask, and a silver torso protector with big beefy pants or something.

Fatality: Pick you up over his head with one hand around your neck and the other around your ankles, he then would bend your body in the way its not made to be bent (victim faces screen, as shao kahn bends them so that their right ear meets up with their right knee) at the point of where the vitim cant bend anymore and theres a lot of stress on the body, the victim just rips in half at the waist...kahn then has your upper body in his right hand, and your legs in his left and he throws them aside. Poses.

what do you guys think?

Yes, I would love it for Shao Kahn to be a playable character. And to your question, Yes. There have been topics similar to yours.

I always thought that Shao Kahn would have been great with Pi Gua & Dragon, Along with his Hammer.

i want him back too
NOw that i think bout your idea, i say i like the victoria from wrestling fataliity,that position is from her finshing move in wrestling. but anyway

your idead kicks ass, and too make khans fatality the most badass which it should be besides the DK

he should face the screen like u said, but when the guy gets torn apart, the head should fly really fast and hit the screen, sliding off the screen slowly and dragging a blood line with it.

the first time we use this fatality it should scare us cause the giant head(cause its really close up) should scare us cause we wouldnt expect that, the head would hit the screen abd slide down with smeers of blood, that wold make us laugh and make this fatilaity want to be showed off by our friends again and again.

or instead his other fatality should be swinging the mallet and hitting the guys head off into the screen and etc. and the one u just said could just make the guy tear apart.

Shao Kahn should be final boss. Imagine - you defeat Dragon king and it seems that you finish the game. But then from nowhere come Shao kahn and KICK YOUR ASS !!!

For Kahn's fatality, what if he was just to beat the ever-lovin shit out of you! and then on the last hit, he punches completely through your chest and out your back.

sort of like a brutality, just not so fast? I like that too.

I would think Kahn has a lot of anger management issues in this game; he lost his empire, was decieved, and sindel (wifey) is probably not putting out. If anything his fatalities should be downright BRUTAL, they should make you say things like "oh shit" out loud when you see them. I hope he comes back either as a character or a boss/sub-boss.

I completely agree. His fatalities should be the most brutal things we've ever seen. I want them to be so violent that they put the 9 minute scourging session in The Passion of The Christ to shame! I want pieces of ass and eyeballs and blood flyin everywhere. He should be the most violent bastard of them all.

KAHN RULES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I disagree, they 'killed' him a couple of times in the past, but he always came back. Now they've killed him in the intro of MK:DA and I think he should stay dead.

However, if they would let Kahn return, they should give him lots of scars on his torso and face and he should be a bit weaker too. But of course, he'd be really pissed off because of this betrayal :P

Kahn would be better if he was a sub-boss instead of being playable.

I completely agree with the original poster. Shao is one of the most popular and sought after characters and it would be ludicrous to keep ignoring this fact. Shao should return with a new storyline and what better time than when his entire realm is in danger.

Though I disagree with one thing, I think a martial arts style would suit him VERY WELL. I think he would rock doing some awesome hand/arm based martial arts... throw in a knee now and then. His other style could be a "boxing" style kinda like Drahmin. His weapon is the giant sledgehammer.

His outfits are:

1- Classic outfit
2- Warlord outfit (think very evil armored and spiked up samurai)
3- Maskless version of classic outfit with minor differences.

It was hinted by Boon in an interview that Kahn survived the assassination..

Kahn never died. He is immortal and someone as pitiful as Liu Kang can't kill him. In MK2 he was merely defeated and in MK3 he was sent back to outworld defeated. The closest Kahn ever came to real death is the MKDA assassination.

Though I agree with the scars, they would be very interesting.
