If you've read Scorpion's MK:D bio, you'd know that he says he doesn't become the Elder God's chosen warrior until after Onaga blows up the Deadly Alliance's palace. However, we clearly see in Konquest mode of the same game that Scorpion attacks Shujinko in the name of the Elder Gods (who he had not believed until seeing them) just before Onaga even announced he was going to get Quan Chi's amulet where the palace gets blown up.

That's the main topic, but just to name a few other contradictions as well:

- Jade says she is claiming the Outworld kamidogu in the name of Sindel before MK1 even happened or Sindel was even revived.

- Just after being denied from going to MK1, Shujinko goes to the Netherrealm. There, he finds Scorpion. But Scorpion is already chasing Quan Chi like he didn't even start doing until the end of MK4. There may have been some untold time between Shujinko's arrival and the talk, but he talked to Scorpion as if he just got there. And if he was in either Earthrealm or the Netherrealm, he would have experienced Outworld's merging with Earth during MK3 at least. Shao Kahn tried taking the souls of Earth's Hell and Scorpion was freed by such.

- It's okay that it goes right to MK:DA after Shujinko leaves the Netherrealm like MK2-4 never happened. But then getting him imprisoned by Hotaru and turning him quickly from a (possibly) 40 year old man to a sixty year old man is outrageous. Deception happened almost immediately after MK:DA. In fact, MK:DA's ending WAS MK:D's beginning.

- So MK:DA has happened and now it's going into MK:D when you get to Edenia. Shao Kahn is supposedly dead, but...wait! His men are searching Edenia for the kamidogu and Sindel is being imprisoned by him with Tanya guarding. Shao Kahn did turn up alive, but in the original versions of MK:D he was still dead. Tanya also said in her bios that she went straight from the Deadly Alliance's serving to Onaga's. Weird, huh?

And that's The Word. We'll be right back!

I thought Scorpion accepted the offer kause the Elder Gods promised to bring back his klan.

MK:DA ending: Scorpion was thrown into that pit with those souls where he would've been torn apart, but managed to escape. He then konfronted the Elder Gods and he would be forever changed by this enkounter.

In other words it states that he did become the champ.

Right, and Shunjinko's part didn't start until after Raiden blows himself up and such same as Scorpion becoming their champ.

And hold up, where did you get that Scorpion attacked Shujinko? Where'd that happen?

laugh Who cares? The MK story writers have been going all over the map with the plot ever since late MK3.

I think he is talking about Monster attacking you at the Nexus, not Scorpion.

The writers don't even remember what the hell is going on in their little MK world.

The very last fight of Konquest mode.

And no duh about the whole soulnado thing and ressurecting his clan. I never said that wasn't true. I mean that according to his -> Scorpion's 2nd MK:D Bio <-, he didn't get that role until AFTER the Deadly Alliance and Raiden were "killed". Instead, in -> THIS <- video at around 2:00, he's already working for them BEFORE that happened.

Wow, you're right. Maybe Scorpion heard something or I dunno. Either Scorpion might've met with the Elder Gods sometime before, that we don't know of, Shujinko getting there to place the last one (kamidogu) then that would make sense. Elder Gods send Scorp, kause they know Damshi is tricking the old retard, to put a stop to his old self.

Either that, or everything is thrown off.

In Scorpion's first MK:D bio, it says he never believed the Elder Gods even existed until they made him their chosen warrior. So...

Highlighted.

Also, to back myself up, the Elder Gods might've tried to send Scorp to maybe try to aviod Shujinko from putting the last kamidogu on the Alter to prevent everything from happening. But old guy beats him and everything went to hell.

Basically, Scorp might've met the Elder Gods (not in the past like MK4 or something) and sent him to stop Shujinko to prevent the khaos. See what I mean? (ugh repeated myself.)

No. They noticed him in the Void after they got done watching the movie about Raiden getting blown up in a palace with the Deadly Alliance and Onaga. I think they didn't revive his clan all of the way because they were pissed he didn't bring popcorn.

But I just think it's the funniest thing when a game contradicts ITSELF. lol

Must've missed that part. Nah, they didn't. MK:A kovers that part.

Dude that's just weird. Also, MK:A has more of those things in it than MK:D. mischief
