He also helped the Special Forces when they turned him back to into human and helped Nitara free her realm by giving her the orb within the lava shrine. Cyrax is a homie.
Cyrax’s little side arc with nitara and reptile in the original timeline wasn’t bad either. not super fleshed out but showed us that he really is a good person, even if he associated with less than reputable people.
@@Beetlejuice67668 the concept of triborg is cool but then i realize that none of the three cyborgs get a special ending or any dialogues before battles or their own fatalities
@@jerrypierre7825 same goes to smoke. He's literally getting wasted every time. He was only last seen in mk9 and yet, they made him an NPC in mkx, and he only made a cameo in mk11.. I miss both cyrax and smoke. :c
4:33 Cyrax "you mean to finish me? (Beat drops) -you couldnt even stop the actor" Then proceeds to beat the actor's ass after beating Sheeva and Baraka. CYRAX WAS THE FUCKIN TRUTH
It's crazy that when I was younger I always loved Cyrax and wished he became good. I wished for the same for Ermac in the original and they did. I was happy af and hyped. They were always better as good guys to me.
Easy 10/10 for me. His honor and integrity are unshakeable. And the fact that his human form in MK9 looks kinda like me was a very cool surprise when the game first released.
9/10 a strong and honorable character. Earned the respect of Raiden, Grandmasters Kwai Liang and Hanzo Hasashi. I’d love to see him get a huge push in future games.
considering the lin kuei had a history of kidnapping children to raise as assassins and that leaving the clan means becoming a fugitive, it means a lot when cyrax is saying his service to the lin kuei is still voluntary
Cyrax is a 9-10 character imo. Awesome backstory, sick moves and combos, dope finishers, he has honor and follows what he believes! only thing keepin him from 10-10 imo is the fact he got cyberized off screen? Like wtf??? Wasn't nobody there fkin with him other then Scorpion, Raiden, Sheng Tsung or Liu Kang, so how did he even get cyberized....
MK fan 1: "Who cares about character development and good story? I just want to see cool action and fatalities!" MK fan 2: "I'm glad the current MK games exists, because in the old games, all I see were pictures and texts. Thank goodness that current MK games have cutscenes and story modes." MK fan 3: "MK games and the animated movie are SUPERIOR!"
The shit thing about the new games is they had characters like Cyrax, Sektor, Smoke, Ernac Noob Saibot and they did nothing to explore or develop their back story further. Instead they stuck the fans with some shitty GI Joe rip offs; Cassey Cage and Jacqui Briggs and then some even more shitty Dr Who Time Warp bullcrap in MK11
Cyrax may have been underrated but he had an awesome run in the original timeline starting with Mortal Kombat 3 and he even redeemed himself in MK4/MK Gold and onwards. But his run in MK9 was one of his greatest runs in history. It's too bad he became a cyborg. But still good movesets, awesome fatalities and great endings won't stop Cyrax from being inducted into the Mortal Kombat Hall of Fame. Overall I give the yellow cybernetic ninja an 8/10.
@@bigevil1001 Yeah, that was why he pushed the Cyber Initiative. He knew it would compromise the abilities of fighters that were potential threats, making him the strongest among the cyborgs, since he had full control of his being.
“Why does Scorpion look like the Usos” 🤣 I actually agree, I always thought he looked more Pacific Islander in MK11 rather than Japanese. I’ve never seen his character/face model or actor either though.
I remember getting MK3 for the sega genesis when I was 7 years old, and once I played Cyrax became one of my favorite characters along with Sektor and Stryker.
Cyrax has always been my fav fighter to play as in MK history I give him a 9 I wish he got more shine. My fav finisher was in DA when he pulls you into his body like a human blender and shoots you out hahaha classic
I love that Cyrax managed to look pretty good despite losing in MK11, bonus points for him realizing what happened with the help of Kuai Laing and Honzo. Would have loved to see him as DLC after that personally. Oh and props to Netherrealm bringing back the MK9 voice actor, great little bit of fan service.
My third favourite kharakter in the series, the unsung hero of the lin kuei who sakrificed himself twice for what he believed in. His is a story of freedom vs slavery. Hope he gets added to the game soon.
I give cyrax a 10/10 he's an awesome character that should be playable in mk11 one of the most honorable characters in mortal kombat if not all of gaming truly an awesome character
Cyrax DESERVES to come back as a HUMAN Like Smoke! Him, Smoke, and Sub zero the TRIPLE THREAT, Add original timeline Bi Han and we got ourselves an AWESOME FIGHTING FORCE FOR GOOD!!
I love Cyrax in MK3 and MK9 not so much In MKX because it wasn’t technically Cyrax but still nice to see him I hope he comes back in MK11 as a playable character not as a npc if they do more dlc Edit: He’s a 10 out of 10 for me
It’s crazy...imagine a character created, starting off as the shit, ONLY to be demoted to pure Enhancement Talent Shock...holy shit what a disappointment and truly wasted potential. 8/10, could have played a MUCHHH larger part in the story if used properly...
What's worse is none of the popular characters didn't even appear or just became a wasted NPC in mk11.. Reptile, smoke, ermac, and both sektor and cyrax keep being literal jobbers all the time. It sucks how they didn't make it to the latest game.
Oh a rate too.. 10 in my book..I was almost unstoppable with him in matches. He had all u needed in a character.. anti air, great combos and damage. The net was so O.P lol
Underrated in the story.....those who pick him who that's he's a monster. MK9 Cyrax was fearsome. His best design imo was when he part of Triborg. I dunno why but I really liked how his mask looked
Mortal Kombat should at least do a spin off game with Cyrax as a playable character. It’s a shame a character like Cyrax is not playable but D’vorah is getting the Triple H Golden shovel
Cyrax is my greatest character in UMK3/Trilogy...My 3 On 3 usually has Cyrax, Nightwolf and Shang Tsung so that can transform into Cyrax... He is my boy...
Honestly the whole story of the lin kuei it's members(such as Cyrax) and the storylines within them are great and would like for them to be explore more Cyrax rating: 9 or 10/10
What really didn’t make sense is that they rightfully treat Cyrax like he’s brainwashed and try to help him but when it comes to Noob and the rest of the Revenants they’re treated like they wanted to be evil!
![[MK9] Cyrax nonsense + 82% combo](/img/n.gif)
He also helped the Special Forces when they turned him back to into human and helped Nitara free her realm by giving her the orb within the lava shrine. Cyrax is a homie.
Lol who knows cyrax probably got some of vampire vagina never know 😏😏💖
@@robertparker9404 lol....I think they didn't bless him in that department, unless he comes back human
Pretty sure she also tricked him Robert.
I just wish he was always human
Giving our boy Cyrax his due respect. ✊
Man or Machine, Cyrax is a Hero in his Soul.
100% agree the guy is the embodiement of the true hart of a warrior

Sektor: "We are Lin Kuei, Cyrax..."
Scorpion: 👀

Less Reputable people? Reptile is more known then Cyrax.
Edit: realized my mistake
@@mandalorianhunter1 that’s not what reputable means.
@@KingPig12 Yeah I realized my mistake thanks
The fact that he’s a character in mk11 with his moves set and everything, but he’s not playable is a travesty
Out of the cyber Lin Kuei, Cyrax is the most honourable of the all. Despite being a robot, he kept his humanity to the end. 10/10
He’s so under rated he hasn’t been playable since mk9
MKX
@@kdogg8037 triborg don’t count my man lol
@@Beetlejuice67668 the concept of triborg is cool but then i realize that

True.
"You wish to finish me? You couldn't stop the actor"
Word...✊🏿
That's a bar 🔥
It's crazy that when I was younger I always loved Cyrax and wished he became good. I wished for the same for Ermac in the original and they did. I was happy af and hyped. They were always better as good guys to me.
Still hoping for Ermac to become a good guy in the new timeline
Easy 10/10 for me. His honor and integrity are unshakeable. And the fact that his human form in MK9 looks kinda like me was a very cool surprise when the game first released.

7:49 He look like the Usos 😂
I've been saying that since the trailers. Lmao
I really liked the fact that he humbled Johnny Cage by eliminating him from the first tournament. Cyrax gained my respect since then.
Cyrax should have been DLC in MK11
I still have hope for kombat pack 3 and we get cyrax at least in there
@@adriel88_ I just want ermac ,smoke reptile, cyrax, sektor, takeda
@@ZZ___ thats a big Christmas list
It'd be funny and kinda kruel to do Frost's sekond fatal on him wouldn't it? 😅
He should have never existed
considering the lin kuei had a history of kidnapping children to raise as assassins and that leaving the clan means becoming a fugitive, it means a lot when cyrax is saying his service to the lin kuei is still voluntary
We need Human Cyrax skins in the next game
Agreed. Cyrax and sektor are both underrated. Triborg was my main in mkx and loved using their movesets
10/10 one of the best designs in decades, and honorable as well.
Cyrax is a 9-10 character imo. Awesome backstory, sick moves and combos, dope finishers, he has honor and follows what he believes! only thing keepin him from 10-10 imo is the fact he got cyberized off screen? Like wtf??? Wasn't nobody there fkin with him other then Scorpion, Raiden, Sheng Tsung or Liu Kang, so how did he even get cyberized....
Easily 10/10! Cyrax was a badass ninja to the very end, both as human and as cyborg!
The MK treats it's Black male warriors, and Cyrax is a 10/10

HELL NO! The animated movie, Mortal Kombat Legends Scorpion’s Revenge, is the BEST MK MOVIE and BEAT video game adaptation EVER!
He was telling a joke geo g.

Always makes me laugh when Cyrax and Sektor abruptly stop their important conversation to shit talk the shirai ryu.
Cyrax and Jax holding it down for the brothas 👊🏾
And their names rhyme
Much respect for Cyrax 'cause he does shows honor and I wanted him to be part of MK11 as a playable someday

Love his Fatality where he destroys the world with a bigass explosion! HAHAHAHA
Now, where is Smoke in this too?
Cyrax is my favorite character in the Mortal Kombat series along with Kung Lao ✊🏾 #respectcyrax 💯
Despite looking cool, most MK characters have good stories. We need a series and not a movie
He seem more popular than Sektor
@Zoomer Waffen I think it’s just cause he was overwhelmingly broken in MK9 that plays a factor in his popularity
@@antg2183 This. Plus he is just as nuts in MK3 as well.
Cyrax and Smoke lost their freewill when they became cyborgs but it seems to me like Sektor still has his. He’s not forced into evil. He chooses it.
I like Sektor more, in 9 and X at least. But Cyrax has more potential in the story, Sektor is pretty much just a power-hungry villain
@@bigevil1001 Yeah, that was why he pushed the Cyber Initiative. He knew it would compromise the abilities of fighters that were potential threats, making him the strongest among the cyborgs, since he had full control of his being.
Ya boi gets over in what little time he has to shine... But the MK writers body him at every turn.
They body every great character ermac,rain,baraka etc
@@shotz557 Right?! So many of the new lame ass characters get put over while many OGs from back in the day get bodied or forgotten.
Cyrax has been my favorite since Deadly Alliance glad he got some respect in MK9
“Why does Scorpion look like the Usos” 🤣
I actually agree, I always thought he looked more Pacific Islander in MK11 rather than Japanese. I’ve never seen his character/face model or actor either though.

Imagine being Cyrax commanding Suside and never coming back
And I personally give Cyrax an 9/10

10/10 for a true warrior!
MK9 Cyrax deserves his own game
I luv the way they translated the machinical into the real on the moves.Genius.
Cyrax DESERVES to come back as a HUMAN Like Smoke! Him, Smoke, and Sub zero the TRIPLE THREAT, Add original timeline Bi Han and we got ourselves an AWESOME FIGHTING FORCE FOR GOOD!!
Now that's something I need to see.
10/10 well written character.
9/10 Cyrax is a really good character always liked his move sets in the original Mortal Kombat games.
I laughed when he skipped noob saibot’s encounter 😂😂
Every time I see Frost doing her cyberized fatality on Cyrax, it makes me a wee bit sad; he fought all that to become a pawn yet again. ;( 💔
I love Cyrax in MK3 and MK9 not so much In MKX because it wasn’t technically Cyrax but still nice to see him I hope he comes back in MK11 as a playable character not as a npc if they do more dlc
Edit: He’s a 10 out of 10 for me
It’s crazy...imagine a character created, starting off as the shit, ONLY to be demoted to pure Enhancement Talent Shock...holy shit what a disappointment and truly wasted potential.
8/10, could have played a MUCHHH larger part in the story if used properly...
What's worse is none of the popular characters didn't even appear or just became a wasted NPC in mk11..
Reptile, smoke, ermac, and both sektor and cyrax keep being literal jobbers all the time. It sucks how they didn't make it to the latest game.
Oh a rate too.. 10 in my book..I was almost unstoppable with him in matches. He had all u needed in a character.. anti air, great combos and damage. The net was so O.P lol
PREACH!!!! This is my favorite character. I stan for this man
I miss cyrax so much.. Sure he's in MK11 but I how hate they made him unplayable. It would've been better if they kept both sektor and cyrax playable.
did not remember his involvement in the MKX-on story, but that was actually good. simple and allows a way for him to come back into the story later
He used to scare me as a kid. But Cyrax is a ten for sure!
I don't know how I got here... But I like it here
Was never a Cyrax fan until MK9 I also loved his human design too, looked great
Definitely a 9.5 on my ratings
Truly underappreciated
Also MK 4 Gold helped define what the character was with the endings of them in the lab trying to revert back his humanity
How is he under rated I thought he was everyone’s favorite cyborg😂
Underrated by nrs I guess who demoted him to an npc.
I wouldn't say he's necessarily underrated but he definitely deserves more love.
Underrated in the story.....those who pick him who that's he's a monster. MK9 Cyrax was fearsome.
His best design imo was when he part of Triborg. I dunno why but I really liked how his mask looked
Did anybody else hear a tie fighter flying when Cyrax was walking on the bridge???
Integrity makes him a Ten!
10/10
Even gameplay wise he had it all
In the new timeline,if you are a villian,you are a JOBBER by default
Mortal Kombat should at least do a spin off game with Cyrax as a playable character. It’s a shame a character like Cyrax is not playable but D’vorah is getting the Triple H Golden shovel
Nice touch with the Alien Trilogy music at the end
Ain't one of the stereotypical Brothas in videogames either, jax has the 70's jive talk lol
Cyrax is my greatest character in UMK3/Trilogy...My 3 On 3 usually has Cyrax, Nightwolf and Shang Tsung so that can transform into Cyrax... He is my boy...
the amount of wrestling references are amazing
Honestly the whole story of the lin kuei it's members(such as Cyrax) and the storylines within them are great and would like for them to be explore more
Cyrax rating: 9 or 10/10
Human cyrax deserves more love, cyrax is sick
sick iconic character 9/10
Cyrax the man ...the machine ...the legend 10 outta 10 hands down
Yo Cyrax is and always will be my favorite cyber ninja both old and new lore plus ya boi be looking fly with the yellow and green look 😎
Just became my favorite character
Crazy how Sektor was so in on it to be cyberized
Respect Cyrax 👏🏼
he is my favorite
What really didn’t make sense is that they rightfully treat Cyrax like he’s brainwashed and try to help him but when it comes to Noob and the rest of the Revenants they’re treated like they wanted to be evil!
My favorite kharakter, he was a god in MK3.
The Cyborg ninjas was always cool
no.... they ripped out my skill.... made me a jobber
"anything is possible, hanzo and i are proof of that"
just dont bring ma back as a jobber
Cyrax will be a hero
10 I love cyrax
I always enjoyed destroying players with Cyrax. He was my fav character
4th snake said that unburnt Kabal human Sektor and Young Shang Tsung all look like brothers and now I cant unsee it.
5:16
RESPECT ✊🏽
8:31 tell em jimmy uso 😂 haven’t heard that name in years lol
100 out of 10 since mk3 love Cyrax
10 out 10
Brah seeing cyrax turned into a cyborg from this angle is depressing 😩 also shout out to MK9 being the best MK game in the series!
@7:54 OMG I literally said the same thing?! I was like yooo Scorpion looking real Ucey?! LMAO
Next vid I'd love to see Sektor covered. 👀 Perhaps do a rise & fall of Sektor?... 👀
10/10 for Cyrax
The best cyber ninja ever made
