MK1 Conan in a nutshell

OMG, you guys! I just HAVE to talk about Conan in MK1. As soon as I heard the rumors, I was buzzing, and seeing him in action (even if it's just a glimpse like in the original post!) has me hyped! The original post's 'Eyaaaaaaughhhh!' totally encapsulates the raw energy he brings. For those who might not know, Conan the Barbarian joining the Mortal Kombat universe is a dream come true for many fans. He's this iconic warrior known for his sheer strength, brutal combat style, and no-nonsense attitude. He fits right into the gritty, violent world of Mortal Kombat 1. I mean, can you imagine the clashes? Sub-Zero freezing him, Scorpion trying to pull him into the Netherrealm... Conan would just shrug it off and cleave them in two! Now, let's get to what everyone's really searching for: his Fatality. The original post was just a teaser, so let me paint a picture of what I imagine a Conan fatality would look like, keeping the #mortalkombat spirit alive. Picture this: Conan disarms his opponent, maybe with a swift, powerful kick to the midsection. Then, he grabs them by the head, lifts them effortlessly, and slams them headfirst into the ground, creating a crater. But he's not done! He pulls them back up, draws his massive sword (the CON in the OCR perfectly highlights his iconic weapon!), and with a mighty roar, he cleaves them diagonally from shoulder to hip. Blood and guts everywhere, of course, in true MK fashion. It would be an absolute masterpiece of visceral destruction, truly living up to the 'nutshell animations out the window' vibe, meaning no subtle moves, just pure barbarian rage! His general moveset would probably focus on heavy, unblockable attacks, powerful throws, and maybe some environmental interactions using his raw strength. Think about him swinging opponents around like ragdolls or using broken pieces of the arena as weapons. I'm hoping for some really satisfying special moves that emphasize his barbarian nature – perhaps a charging attack with his sword, or a powerful axe throw. What I love most about guest characters like Conan in MK1 is how they shake up the roster and bring new playstyles. It’s not just about adding another fighter; it’s about injecting a completely different mythos into the game. Playing as Conan, you wouldn't be relying on fancy magic or elaborate martial arts. It would be all about raw power, primal instincts, and overwhelming your opponent with sheer force. I can't wait to master his moves and pull off that epic fatality myself. It really feels like NetherRealm Studios understands the appeal of these crossovers, and they consistently deliver on the brutality and spectacle we expect from Mortal Kombat. If you’re like me and you’ve been waiting for a truly savage character, Conan in MK1 looks like he’s going to deliver in spades! What do you guys think his best combo will be?
