Make Shao Kahn Human Again.

Seriously, why he's still looking like a satan? Reboot, my ass.

They decided to make him part of the Dragon Race that is descended of Onaga. He was often hinted to not be Human before. His Eyes and Teeth kind of hinted at this. They just decided to make it more obvious now.

He was cooler looking like a big human with snake eyes.

I liked how he looked in 11, though it was jarring at first. Not a fan of the MK1 look though. He just doesnt feel like a threat to me.

I also don't understand why he's using axe this time instead of hammer.

Agreed, the Maul is so Iconic for him. Giving him an Axe instead just made him feel almost Generic now. I would have been okay with it replacing his Spear, but not the Maul. When I look at him now I dont see this Wall of Muscle that is going to Hit me like a Meteor, I see Basic Fantasy Villain General whos All Talk and no Bite

We will probably get an OG Shao skin in the premier store for 1,000 Dragon Crystals like Scorpion and Sub-Zero, lol.

I hate how he looks in MK11/12. He went from this massive man-mountain with a mystery behind the skull mask to dragon man with all the subtlety of a heart attack. Even worse in MK12 they've gone and gave him big dumb horns. Whoever is behind his design needs to study-up on their character design.

Yes, it used to be better, a very big man with burning mutant eyes.

[Cpt Obvious]

Agree he looks dumb now. Just needs to be big naked guy with cool mask and hammer.

Because NRS intended to turn General Shao into a Cuckhold!

[Shoah Kahn]

He was "re-purposed" from what was proposed to be Steppenwolf / Ayres in Injustice 3. Methinks, given the wishy-washy reception for the retconning of characters and their designs, that "MK13" will go back to the old school designs.
