Lord Raiden Vs Kitana- Mortal Kombat Legends Battle of the realms

[hajakamara]

Kitana will always be my favorite fight because she elegant, graceful, independent and powerful. I also like that she doesn't take nonsense from no one.

[RizkymArifin]

KITANA: The Thought of you with my mother.
Shao Kahn: She always pleased me. Kitana.
KITANA: I'll Flay the Smile off your FACE

[Meow-uovk]

I like Kitana to be strong, she's my favorite character, but beating Raiden like that doesn't seem realistic

[j_jazzzman]

Bear in mind for those wondering. Raiden was mortal here, by telling her it's never too late and by observing how defensive he's fighting it's obvious he was holding back on Kitana mentally and physically. He was more offensive and managed to land blows on Shao Kahn as a mortal (obviously Shao beat him later tho) so it makes no sense why he'd struggle against Kitana unless he was trying to get her to choose sides which is what he was doing.

[groovymyers]

We all know if Raiden tried he would have washed Kitana. Raiden is millions of years old and had experience fighting other gods(Shinnok). I'm pretty sure Raiden was intentionally holding back because he knew Liu Kang saw good in her, and her beating him was gonna force her to chose a side, which clearly ended up being the right call, as she betrayed Shao Kahn.

[TrueUnderDawgGaming]

They didn't even let Raiden land a hit. I get they want to pretend Kitana is this strong, but at least have the fights be entertaining. Most of them are either 20 seconds long or extremely one-sided

[jamespaguip]

Raidwn was holding back he didn't want to hurt kitana

[el_fuegos]

0:27 i love when kitana opens their legs

[mr.checkyourself]

They really buffed Kitana in this movie like she's all the above strong and Raiden didn't even land a single hit in.

I'm glad jade is alive the part were she is next to reiko and shang tsung

[datsuspicious]

Yes! This is Kitana, fast and graceful strikes
I do hope other adaptations take on this Kitana’s movement…really accurate to what I expect for her
Last scorpion revenge her movement was stiff, so is her Mk11 animation
Mk9 and MKX was fast but it’s really messy movements and odd poses
I find this as the superior Kitana haha

[anton.chigrinetc.]

Okay, just so everybody understands: nobody hates Kitana. She is a capable fighter, and everybody should have known that by now after she beat the tar out of Shang Tsung in MK9 and killed Shao Kahn in MK11 (I don't consider Aftermath canon personally). The main focus of spite here is Raiden's portrayal as a punching bag which is obviously nonsense. He gets beaten by many way too easily. It is understandable if he wasn't even fighting Kitana, but losing to Shao Kahn the way he did was absolutely ill-written and shows more disrespect to the kharakter rather than anything "realistic".

[Jason-bzuw]

Both of them held back. Even in the fight with Kang kitana never stabs him with her fans when given the chance. After fan lift why kick when she could hit with a fan? Raiden didn't try at all here. He knew what he was doing(get her on their side). Technically she was on their side 500 years ago when the original Kung lao was the champion. Not sure why she is evil to begin with here.

[banengain]

This is literally how kitana players are in mkx nice accuracy fight animation team 👍

[popculturenerdyt]

You know something bad is about to happen when Raidens hat is off

[johngr]

This was about half a minute and Raiden didn't do jack**** except for dodge some blows! Also I like how he went behind her and just stood there!
This would've been so much better if Kitana left her fans aside and they had a hand-to-hand match where they actually go toe to toe!

[gregohanhero]

Mortal Raiden is weak when it comes to 10.000 year old Kitana step daughter of Shao Kahn

[Samuels]

I so glad they went with mkx Kitana and not mk11. I'm seriously not a fan of her newest mk11 design.

[invisiodisvy]

Kitana : clean your room
Liu kang's kid : no
Kitana : grab me the fan
