Biography: [101] ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Place of Origin: Earthrealm Alignment: Good Allies: Frost, Raiden, Sareena, and Kenshi Foes: Quan Chi, Hotaru, Sektor, Onaga, Baraka, Cyrax, Noob, and Smoke Height: 6'2'' (188 cm) Weight: 210 lbs (95 kg) Species: Cyromancer Game Appearances: Mortal Kombat II, Mortal Kombat 3, Ultimate Mortal Kombat 3, Mortal Kombat Trilogy, Mortal Kombat 4, Mortal Kombat Gold, Mortal Kombat Advance, Mortal Kombat: Deadly Alliance, Mortal Kombat: Deception, Mortal Kombat Shaolin Monks, and Mortal Kombat Armageddon. Alternate Outfit: Purchase for 1540 Koins in the Krypt Unlocked: From Start ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ ii. History [102] ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Mortal Kombat 1-3 Quan Chi used Sub-Zero as an investigator throughout the tournament and after Sub-Zero had completed his task, Quan found no more use for him and sent Scorpion to take out Sub-Zero and make it look like it was Scorpion who destroyed his village when it was actually Quan. Sub-Zero killed the original Scorpion in Mortal Kombat, although he has returnee with a vendetta. During the period of MK1 to MK2, after Sub-Zero died, his brother took over the role of Sub-Zero and the one who died has turned into a wraith in the Netherrealm now known as Noob Saibot. They are brothers. Mortal Kombat 4 When you beat the game with Sub-Zero, Scorpion will be on the floor and Quan Chi comes in and looks to finish Sub-Zero off. He then explains that it was he who destroyed Sub-Zero's village and that he is here to take Scorpion back. Scorpion learning of this, used his blind rage and made a desperate attack that sent him and Quan Chi to the Netherrealm. Mortal Kombat Deadly Alliance: The future of the Lin Kuei hung in the balance as Sub-Zero and the ninja cyborg Sektor battled for control of the Dragon Medallion. Sub-Zero defeated Sektor and then claimed the title of Grand Master. With his freezing powers enhanced by the medallion, he vowed to reform the Lin Kuei as a force for good. Sub-Zero relocated the clan to a remote location in the frozen Artic where he had discovered an ancient temple frozen in the side of a glacier. There, the new Lin Kuei could hone their skills without interruption. Raiden appeared before Sub-Zero and asked for his aid in defeating the Deadly Alliance in Outworld. Fighting alongside Raiden would prove to the world that the Lin Kuei had changed for the better, Sub-Zero accepted the challenge and brought with him one of his newest recruits. It was highly unusual for the Grand Master to embark on such a dangerous mission, but Sub-Zero felt it was necessary to earn the respect of his fellow Lin Kuei. Mortal Kombat Deception While still in Outworld, the Lin Keui Grand Master, Sub-Zero, discovers his true heritage -- the source of his mastery over cold. This discovery will aid him in the fight against the Dragon King's Tarkatan hordes. I learned that the ruins were a holy structure belonging to a lost race of people who had attained mastery over cold. After throrough study of this culture,I now believe both Frost and myself to be their descendents. I laid Frost's body in a sarcophagus and left the catacombs donning the armor of my newly discovered heritage. My fellow Lin Kuei Frost, had betrayed me and stolen my dragon medallion. Unable to control the medallion's power, she was consumed by her own freezing ability. I searched Outworld for a suitable place to bury her remains when I happened upon ancient ruins, carved into a Mountain Side. Mortal Kombat Armageddon Ending Sub-Zero obtains the Dragon Medallion and becomes a god - but a false one. The elder gods did not approve of this and thus he is no longer an ally. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ iii. Notes [103] ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ +Quick +Easy to use +Cool moves -Sluggish -Not the strongest combatant ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ iv. Strategies [104] ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Sub's Deap Chop is pretty effective, you can work on freezing them or giving them the Cold Shoulder and then coming over and dropping the Dead Chop on them. Try to time it the best you can to freeze them or giving them another big move right when they get up. His Kori Blade is cheatingly strong, I recently fell the power it can cause with it's quick hits. If you can time the hits perfectly it can knock your opponent down and get a few more hits before they can discover something worthwhile to do to stop this. How to defeat Blaze Straight up, don't use your specials. They really don't work and will easily leave you open for a massive attack. Instead, work on attacking him with a combo of Icy Pain and Deap Chop and then quickly block afterwards to stop his attack. If he doesn't attack quickly, you need to quickly start the combo again. You can try to switch in your Kori Blade which can do some heavy damage if he doesn't block it. Keep at it and this should pull it off. /-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=\ 2. Movelist [200] \-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=/ Moves will we listed with the combo needed to enter and then the name. Buttons separated by commas are inserted after completing the first one and "+" mean at the same time. The Playstation 2 and the Xbox are the two systems that have this game so I have to use a different key that encorporates both systems. There is a simple key below, and you can expect Wii controls as it releases. Yes, there are only two styles for Sub-Zero but the number of moves per set is greatly increased. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ i.

Specials [221] =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Rib Breaker...........TH Sub's throw is pretty cool, he'll grab his opponent and then freeze them before he sends them packing. It'll be tough getting close to someone to use this but you should be able to sneak one in. Ice Clone.............D,B+1 Not one of my favorites but it can be particular useful in blocking a projectile or you can even trick the CPU to walking into it if they get too close and they'll automatically freeze up. Freeze Ball...........D,F+3 The classic move, and it still works wonders. You can stop your opponent and you'll get a nice free hit on them if you can connect this on them. Cold Shoulder.........B,F+4 A newer move and it's effective. It just doesn't seem as strong as it has been in the past games although you can really mix this move up during a match. Icy Pillar............D,U+2 Sub-Zero's new move is pretty cool. Using your ice powers, you can freeze your opponent by shooting into the air and he'll freeze up into a pillar. =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- b. Fatalities [222] =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Fatalities are different this TIME, you get to input your fatality. Here's what you do!
