MK vs DCU info #10: Shang Tsung


A sorcerer who consumes the souls of his victims, Shang Tsung played host to the Mortal Kombat tournament in Earthrealm, stacking the odds in favor of the Emperor of Outworld, Shao Kahn. He was finally defeated by the Shaolin monk Liu Kang and has sought to regain the favor of his master Shao Kahn ever since. Tsung's hatred of Liu Kang runs deep, and he would desire nothing more than to consume the soul of the one warrior who denied him victory.

Signature Moves

Flaming Skulls: Shang Tsung sends a fiery skull at his opponent. In the first game, he could throw up to six. In the other games it was either one, two, or three only.

Flaming Skull Eruption: Shang Tsung summons his fiery skulls to burst out of the ground in a series of three.

Soul Steal: If he needed energy, Shang Tsung drains it from the other player. He also does this in Shaolin Monks in a manner similar to his Mortal Kombat II fatality.

Hot Fire Escape: Shang Tsung digs into the ground and erupts at his opponent as a means of teleportation.

Fatalities

Soul Stealer: Shang Tsung grabs or levitates his opponent and consumes their soul, leaving behind a shrunken corps

Morph: Shang Tsung morphs into his opponent and executes the opponent's finisher.
