The Mytholigies Sub-Zero is identical to the MK4 design because Kuai Liang is wearing his brothers clothes in honor of him. I actually dig it for that reason.
The MK4 costumes are terrible especially for Scorpion and Subzero with those ugly ass cat like ears on there mask
@@DIRTYSOUTHSHINOBIthe cat ears Really confuse me
It warms my heart to know Max loves "Shredder" Sub-Zero as much as I do. To me, that is GRANDMASTER Sub-Zero. You get kidnapped by the Lin Kuei and they drag your tied up ass into a large room, they toss you to the ground and you look up...and THAT'S the guy who's sitting on the frozen throne.
Shredder Sub-Zero was fucking stupid looking. You and Max need to get better taste.
cold shredder
shaved ice making machine
at that time, was he kuai liang or bi han?
@@manbat4582Liang.
MK1 is surprisingly up there for me. It's simple, but I really dig it.
Same. I feel like it’s been pretty under appreciated to this point.
I enjoy the face that sub zero finally has long hair without a cursed hairline
Yeah I'm just not feeling his mask but yeah overall I like it
Facts
Same. Wouldn’t mind a hood on him and scorpion though, but I do love the look as is
As someone who wants Shredder in Mortal Kombat more than any other guest character, I hope we get the Shred-Zero costume in MK1 so I can at least pretend I got my wish...
Ayo i always told my friends this too! We need more ninjas in MK since the turtles are in injustice
My first thought when reading this comment: Visual History video about Shredder?
It's in mk 11
Yea I hope they bring deception sub back in mk1 that costume was awesome in mk11
@@habijjjhow do you know?
This is definitely my new favorite thing you’ve been doing, I’m super excited for more
Yesss me too ☝🏼✨
agreed
Absolutely
Also loved to see Yoshimitsu there! Hopefully other characters from other series too in the future
It's surprising they haven't used the iced mask that the first movie had, more. It's such a simple idea, but it fits really well.
MKX kind of does for one of the variations, he'll have an ice mask instead of Iced-Arms.
@@KnightLineArtYTice arms for cryomancer, ice mask for unbreakable, medallion for grandmaster.
Dear Max,
I know that this will probably get buried in the pile, but I just wanted to say thank you so much for all the awesome content you make and share with us, and for being a beacon of relentless positivity. You’re one of a select few channels that I would happily watch regardless of the type of content you produced, simply because of the positive vibes you put out into the world. In an increasingly cynical era, people like you stand out like lighthouses in the dark, and I can’t thank you enough for that. You continue to be, as ever, an inspiration to me for my own channel, and I don’t know if I can think of a more sincere compliment than that.
Best,
-NB
When is the Reiko and Nitara trailer going to be released?
I agree max with this max, everything you post is always must watch. Positive energy all around
My lord shut up
Mega thanks
Crazy Sub-Zero is the only character that has appeared in EVERY MK game
Always makes me laugh when i think back to a old interview with Ed where he comments about how having scorpion and sub is basically a requirement for mk, and the interviewer comments about how scorpion actually wasnt in a game and Eds realization is just funny.
@gamester091 To be fair, the same Sub-Zero has not been in every MK game.
@@xOmniCloudxdidn't think about it, but yeah.
I mean if you consider UMK3 to just be DLC for MK3 (which it pretty much is) he is in every game
Except for special forces
Something to note about both Sub Zero's is that they are Half Chinese/White, as they were originally born American but taken to the Lin Kuei when they were Kids. Hence why Kuai looks "White" in 3,DA, and X.
Their mother is actually American
that’s not true though. they’re not half white kuai liang and bi han’s mother is chinese american but their father is from mainland china
American doesn't automatically equal white. Their mom is Chinese American.
@@i.theworstguys298 Pretty sure their mom was half white and half Chinese. You never see her and I don't remember her ever being explicitly stated as full Chinese. I mean, it would explain the white features.
Im pretty sure that was written after, they just used the same actor for alot of characters.
Deception Sub Zero is the absolute coolest he's ever looked, why hasn't Shredder been a guest character yet!?
That would be great. Can you imagine how terrifying Shredder and Krang would be as guest characters?
@@shinywhimsicott3047Just Shredder not Krang
Watching Max’s series of these has definitely shown me that I’m the opposite of him when it comes to character design. He seems to often prefer what I would consider to be overdesigned and busy and I tend to prefer what I view as more simple and streamlined.
Same here cool to see people having different taste and look for things but I’m more like you though I liked the simple look more
I think he just likes cool looking stuff like he even acknowledges the over design but it still looks cool
I like when people can acknowledge differences in opinion rather than claiming they're the right one
Which is weird because he has derided certain designs for being overdesigned and busy.
His opinions are very inconsistent. He made videos with the yo video games crew and completely changed his mind.
Sub-Zero has always been my favorite character in MK. Being a TMNT fan, I loved his Deception outfit.
I think we all know what the 10/10 outfit is gonna be
Tbh sub has my favorite design out of the Lin Kuei ninjas in mk1, it’s the shoulder pads that really do it for me. I think the shoulder pads actually being present and having shape that goes out makes it look a lot less like pajamas. Still love all the designs tho NRS did a great job.
Subby's MK Deception "Shredder" Look is STILL the Best!
Deception’s Shredder armor is his best look so far, with Kuai Liang’s MK9 look being my 2nd favorite. If he has to go maskless, his best is X with the beard and blank white eyes. My issue with the maskless look is I always prefer him with longer hair like how he looked in his end game cinematic in MK 2 and the MK Annihilation movie. I’m not the biggest fan of how Cyber looks, but I love his move set and how his Kori Blade looks. 
Here is the thing with the change with Sub Zero: the actor who played the ninja, Daniel Pensia l, was fired for using his character as Johnny Cage to promote a rival fighting character. Likewise, many people who play Subby in 2 dont believe the fact that he was Kuai Liang so to proof that 2's Sub Zero was not the same as 1, they gave him a big change to establish that this sub is not the same as bi han.
Interesting bro. Lore is fun
It's Pesina actually, but you're right. His brother Carlos played Raiden!
Mk deception sub zero hits different
literally the coolest MK character
Figuratively the coolest also.
Emphasis on literally.
In MK 1 he is also the coldest 😏
This series is so perfect. Taps into why I loved the old Rate The Kostume videos so much but takes a new angle by honing on the design progression rather than one game at a time. Sooo good. Some of the best content to come out of any MK hype cycle
I'm so glad he took a nostalgia trip with my favorite MK character! Keep up the awesome content Max 😄
I always look forward to this new series of videos! Keep up the work Max!
Man I'm gonna miss Steve Blum performance not saying the new va is bad whatsoever so far he sounds 👌🏾
Yes dude! Been waiting for this one. Love this series btw. I'd watch hundreds of em spanning all kinds of fighting games. Character design choices are always so interesting.
Loving the series. Please keep it up
I LOVE THESE! THANKS FOR THIS SERIES
Mrgstar321's little rant on the alternate deception look is still hilarious. I'd say the deadly alliance masked alternate and the mk vs dc are my favorites. I dig the icy arms
Please, keep this series up!
I was waiting on this one Max
Love this series so much. Can't wait for more of these 🤌
The moment I've been waited for since this series of videos started for mk 1
Fun fact! John Parish, the unmasked Kuai Liang actor in MK3 also played the roles of every other pallette swap ninja in UMK3!
You've got the wrong guy. John Parish plays Jax
You mean John Turk
The "Batman Ears" didn't come in MK4, they were actually around since MK1. The comic/character book art has the ears. The 1995 cartoon thing had them, I know some of the toys had them. They've always been there back then.
"He's just the cooler scorpion."
Sounds accurate...
Sub-Zero's "Shredder" costume in MK11 is the best he's ever looked!
Oh snap! perfect timing. I was just relaxing to your MK Sub Zero Mythologies playthrough. AAAAAAAAHHHHH
3:36 but you gotta understand that was cool for that time. Imagine that sub zero with todays graphics
"Imagine that Sub-zero with today's graphics"
So the Klassic MKX ninja costume? Looking back to it, I don't think he looks that great with that costume (even though they didn't make it justice since the proportions of the various costume parts feel all over the place)
I love this series
Sub Zero is the coolest character in Mortal Kombat
No pun intended
One of my favorite MK characters.
"No one can defeat Sub-Zero"
- Malcom's dad, probably
I like these new series , looking foward to more characters designs ratings Max! ✨☝🏼
BEEN WAITING FOR THIS ❄️
Sub Zerro is my favorite design of the 3 Lin Kuei Ninjas in MK1. It's simple, but it's got enough extra details like the ice hands and the shoulder pads that make is stick out from Scorpion and and Smoke. It's the perfect blend of detail and simplicity
Honestly Deception Sub-Zero was his most unique and awesome look imo and I am just happy they acknowledged its existance and added it in MK11.
“I think he’s the cooler Scorpion.” I see what you did there, Max.
Really interested to see how their tackling Kustomization in MK1. Everyone's looking pretty good but I liked being able to mix-match lime MK11 and INJ2
MK vs DC, MK9, Shaolin Monks, Deception, MKX, MK11, and MK1(with a Mask that’s a Mixed of Shaolin Monks and MKX), are the Best Sub-Zero Skin, now do Smoke or Rain Next.
Loving this series max. Keep it up dude 🤘that yoshimitsu video was a wild ride.... like being in a caddilac with johnny Depp and Benicio del toro😂
Loved the Shaolin Monks Stream last night Dood
Max I'm sure you've heard this a bunch but I absolutely love this series and cannot wait to see more
Great new series 🔥
Giving revenant sub zero a 5 is crazy that costume is sick imo
Max is basic.
Was waiting for this one
Shredder Sub-Zero is totally my favorite look on the guy
In am REALLY loving these vids watching you compare the looks. Getting some good laughs when we get to some of the WTF looks!
Visual history video LET’S GOOOOOO!
I saw someone post this on reddit, admiring you making this series after the reptile one.
Sub-Zero, my favorite ninja warrior of all time. Even ed boon said that when he created him that he wanted to give the players a free hit when he froze his opponents.
2:55 John Turk (Sub-Zero of MK trilogy, MK mythologies Sub-Zero)
My Best versions of Sub-Zero that I like
6:28 MK Deadly Alliance Sub-Zero
7:51 MK Deception Sub-Shredder Zero
11:36 MK Shaolin Monks Sub-Zero
12:18 Cyber Sub-Zero
13:53 Grandmaster Sub-Zero
15:10 Injustice 2 Sub-Zero
16:15 MK 11 Sub-Zero
I think out of all the characters in Mortal Kombat, Sub-Zero probably has the highest constancy for having great costumes.
Subzero character wise is probably who I'm looking forward to the most in mk1
I hope they keep him alive instead of making Bi-Han noob again
Definitely would love to see a visual history on Kitana/Mileena/Jade. The male and female ninjas always had to most interesting visual evolution in MK to me
Shredder Sub from Deception will always be my favorite!
kinda cool video, as always, max
Deception sub zero will always be my favorite I think.
Shredder Sub just can't be topped. I also must admit that I'm a huge fan of the Kold War Tundra Sub-Zero. I think its fuckin kool...
I’m glad this is becoming a series
Love the injustice incarnation of subzero and scorpion.
I absolutely ADORE Injustice 2 Sub-Zero. Seriously almost tied with Deception Sub as my favorite design. Deception Sub is just too dope so i can’t quite put them even. But I loooove Injustice 2 Sub-Zero.
He was also my main in that game.
Sub-Zero’s win pose in the 1st game is the exact same as Scorpion
The best part about this visual history is that he ended up playing MKX for an hour after this
MK Sub-Zero on the Genesis had the same stance as Scorpion but had fatalities, whilst the SNES had the same stance as the arcade version but no fatalities.
I always go fancy on the mask/helmet when I draw the MK ninjas, besides color its the one thing that gives ninja some personality before adding a bunch of armor. Love deadly alliance design with frozen arms but the Shreader Sub blow me away back then
1:54 Nice reference to Whose Line Is It Anyway (:
im so glad that im not only one that loves Deception Shredder Sub
i loved the revenant and bearded sub from x bro
That Ed Boom joke hit me out of nowhere.
mk9 is my favorite sub costume most definitely. i love imperial guard dog and oni faces on the armor with the blue wraps. it’s great.
I legit love Injustice 2, Sub-Zero,so much more than Scorpion's design in Injustice 1. Shredder Sub-Zero, Ice Arms, Old Man MK11, all are just great looks for him.
Max likes it when the ninjas look like samurai
Would love to have Shredder-Zero in MK11 unlocked, but for some reason it was LOCKED to a Aftermath pre-order and it never really appears in the store.
I've always liked Sub-Zero and my fav design is his MKX default one
A visual chill-story.
I actually LOVE Ice-Wraith-Ninja SubZ from MKX. His stance with the one balled fist and the other flattened palm! LOVE everything about it.
I always really liked the ice hands as a kid, still do
“A Visual History” is such a fun series!
If we can see the smoke visual history I’ll be very thankful Mr dood
This is my favorite series on CZcams
the ending though with ed boon
Shout to Max himself ! Where IS your on classic visual History ? It will be goated 🐐🐐🐐
Shredder-zero fans rise up
With the amount of changes sub has gone through it almost feels canon considering he always tries to explain the Lin kuei TOTALLY ARENT NINJAS. My man did his best to convince people over the years that he’s just given in recently and accepted it
MK Deception Atire is a Armor of Sub Zero's ancestors The Cryomancers of Outworld
He fought against the track he was given by the Immortals. He should have realised how impossible it was.
@@mestreoniotreinador8209
Yeah, I’m aware. Even his ancestors were tryna prove that point
I thought i was the only one who his favourite sub zero costume was the deception/armageddon one, it was my favourite since i was a kid and no other looked as great as that one for me 10/10
I was just playing as sub zero in mkx and saw this in my notifications crazy
I love the shredder sub-zero look.
I’m a new mk player and from playing the beta man it feels great to play a more simple game with a mix of both tekken and sf EX moves
Love it, keep them coming. Hope Smoke and Raiden are in the pipeline. Can’t wait for MK1!
MK1 ninjas are by far the best they ever looked. They have been overdesigned for years.
Kuai Liang is my favorite character in the franchise, having grown up always using Sub-Zero in MK games. So now I'm at a weird place with MK1 where idk if I wanna use Sub Zero or Scorpion as my main since Scorpion is now Kuai Liang lol
It is like he read my mind, after watching the one with scorpion I was hoping he would do another with sub zero
I'm really hoping we actually get Shredder in MK as a guest at some point, especially after the Turtles being in Injustice. THe amount of alternate costumes he could have is in no shortage (especially looking at the design he had in the Turtles' arcade ending) and he has a LOT of potential as a fighter being a ninja/samurai mix.
0:22 should’ve went full Arnold with it man. Ice puns are chill
mk11 headband with mask might be my favorite
