MK 2011 info: Noob Saibot


NOOB SAIBOT'S origins are unknown, but he is likely a revenant: a fallen warrior resurrected by the Netherrealm sorcerer Quan Chi to fulfill a dark objective. NOOB has been assigned to aid Shao Kahn in his acquisition of Earthrealm. A faithful servant and a recent addition to the Brotherhood of Shadow, he will obey his master, Quan Chi, and complete his mission. But he is biding his time. NOOB SAIBOT has a dark objective of his own.


Signature moves

Disabler: Noob sends out a ghostly fireball which disables the opponent's moves and blocks for free hits. This move was renamed Ghostball in MK 2011.
* The enhanced version is called Spirit Ball and will also confuse the opponent.

Teleport Slam: Disappearing, then reappearing behind his opponent, Noob grabs them and slams them on the ground. This move is also called Teleport Grab.
* The enhanced version is called Teleport Smash and has Noob drag the opponent through the ground two additional times via portal.

Shadow Slide: In a nod to his Lin Kuei Slide before his transformation, Noob sends his shadow out in a slide which trips the opponent.
* The enhanced version is called Saibot Slide and makes the opponent completely flip over the shadow onto their back.

Black Hole: Noob Saibot shoots a dark portal into the air which lands on the ground behind the enemy. It can also appear in front or landing right on the enemy. Should the enemy fall or be knocked into the portal, they will fall from the sky directly above Noob and receive damage from the drop.
* The enhanced versions are all called Darkness. The black hole will fall faster, and will drop the opponent head first into the ground.

Shadow Charge: Noob Saibot sends one of his shadow clones to tackle his foe.
* The enhanced version is called Saibot Charge and will have the shadow punch the opponent in the face before disintegrating.

Shadow Upknee: Noob Saibot launches his shadow clone in the air, which kicks the opponent away from him.
* The enhanced version is called Saibot Upknee. It is slightly more damaging, and sends the opponent further back.

X-Ray Move - Together Again: Noob Saibot first calls his shadow to appear from behind his opponent and grab them. Noob then punches the foe in the face, breaking the whole skull, the shadow then breaks their spine, heart and ribs by kneeing them in the lower back. Noob then kicks the opponent in the stomach, causing them to vomit on his leg.


Fatalities

Make a Wish: Noob summons his shadow clone and each one grabs one of the opponent's legs. Then they start pulling until the opponent is completely ripped in half.

As One: Noob creates a portal below the opponent, and a shadow clone comes out grabbing his/her torso. When the opponent's legs are through the portal, Noob closes it, crushing the midsection, and leaving the victim crawling on the floor bleeding to death.

Babality: Noob Saibot summons a portal, but gets sucked up, and ends up summoning a portal below himself as well. Noob Saibot is then caught in an infinite loop where he keeps falling through both portals in a comical fashion.
