MK1 - Ermac Tower Ending 

They've always been OP

Only to never be shown on screen 😭

He let out Sindel's soul for her scream. That's something.

Well he was considered a sub boss like goro motaro and tshang shung in the original timeline

He’s becoming a full anime MC at this point

Good thing is that despite all that and due to Ermac consisting of the souls in the living forest, Ermac won't be evil.

Yea imagine all the souls telling him what to do 😵

Dont We have to refer to ermac as they/them since they are many not one 🤔🤔

@@darksamm1398 the host is king jarad

@@Cisco2624it currently is king Jerrod but in the ending, it looks clear other souls took over and decided they wanted to free quan chi. I doubt Jerrod or sindel would’ve wanted that. Also, sindel for a moment appeared outside the body and used her scream so yeah, sindel is a host too

I really hope to make your words mine.

At the end of the main story it seems like he’s gone on to act as a supervisor to Mileena, because the main soul in him is her dad. If I’m remembering correctly. It’s been a while since I played the story

Did you know that Ermac turned good in the original timeline? That's in MK Deception - Armageddon, so that could not be his first time.

@@zel3079 the story where Kenshi is trained by Ermac is the original timeline. I think you misunderstood OP

@@ShadowknightEX This looks like it takes place after every other tower ending and the main story where Jerrod is in control of Ermac. So it's up in the air where Ermac goes from here.

I do think that they'll go toward the good one because ermac is created from the living forest's souls, which according to baraka: are good souls

@@huskymafia6020 That's a good point. Man I can only imagine what it must be like having more than a thousand souls, all arguing with each other over what each of them wants to do.

Ermac is a Male

@@SakuraKyokoSimp Correction Ermac is the collection of over a thousand souls, and has oftentimes refered to themselves simply as **We** and never as He. Now if we were referring to classic Ermac alone then you would be correct as there he was referred to as a male.

@@Burning-Twilight that's what I failed to say the OG timeline Ermac

That are different

He sounds like a hybrid of Sub Zero and General Shao for me

I'm guessing & hoping for a neutral autonomous collective. Ha can & likely will be helpful if interests align but otherwise won't care much. He won't go out of his way to screw you over but you've got to give him reason to follow along.

@gaelofariandel6747 In his gameplay trailer today, Reptile says to him in his clash "You've changed since we've met" Ermac's responce"We believe in the better" So I'd say he's more good than bad or neutral honestly but under his own terms. He also talks sh*t to Shao, clearly not a fan of him so I definitely don't see Ermac being bad this time at all. I think he would help the good guys if it serves the greater good, Baraka confirmed the living forest in this timeline are full of good souls not evil, they may be conflicted but definitely not evil so there's also that.

by first timeline you mean midway timeline or netherealm timeline?

@@user-dl7dv1fk2n The first timeline is Midway's timeline, the second timeline onward was NRS though it was technically a soft reboot as it didn't go all the way back to the very, very beginning of everything just to the first MK tournament. Everything that happened prior to that was the same as the first timeline. But yeah this was definitely it's own thing, the Elder Gods were far weaker in this timeline in Onslaught, Shinnok and Raiden never worked together and that stuff with Scorpion and Drahmin's mask was never a thing.

Quan Chi betraying someone? Who could have predicted that!

​@@docrofreborn7497 Shang Tsung is probably laughing in his corner because Quan Chi managed to fumble something so easy

It’s possible he reveals what happened in the story expansion. Maybe even a flashback.

@@Andre12359 I just hope NetherRealm doesn't forget that plot tread.

New timeline and L Kang lets his daddy-in-law die offscreen AGAIN.😂

Could also be explained on the match dialogues

Some match dialogues (not with Ermac) imply this happens a lot, and they usually just beat him up until Jerrod regains control.

or the krypt skin from mk 11

@@Dylannuyten yea that one

He needs his MK9 alt. His best skin.

@@IGoByGhostfacts

We have enough good Guy ... Like the entire roster is Friendly boring already

@@blackcatbone5697 Don't get me wrong, I don't mind villians, I just wanted to see some of the folks who generally get mega-shafted (and die/tend to be lackies for mega-boss-evil guy) have a bit of a turn about. Like Baraka and Mileena!

Considering Ermac consists of the souls of the living forest then considering that according to Baraka, none of the souls there are evil souls, its safe to say that Ermac is still a good guy. Its just that all the remaining souls need to figure out what they want and figure out how to coexist peacefully.

@@blackcatbone5697bro, nobody wants to see the same story over and over…. With the same bad guys, I’m glad they switched it up…. Like peoples favorite characters do the same thing over and over and die bc the plot made them bad and just some following azz ppl like….. no mane, I want to see something new

Well mk13 and mk14 might be the end of the new era arc. Ermac was a good guy in previous timelines

yeah no shit

wow well done heres a medal lmao

I thought he was a collective of sperm with how white and sticky this version of him looks.

Congratulations, you’re able to understand stories.

No shit

Thank god

@@Raggadee_Manwhy

That good

c'mon don't y'all know already that if a character dies in the story mode it doesn't disqualify them for the next game?? just look at baraka he died in mkx and came back for mk11, mileena died in mkx and came back in mk11, sindel and shao both died in mk11 and came back for mk1, even if it's a factor of the lore where the time line resets/collides it still doesn't make sense for them to permanently remove them from the games, especially when sindel's one of the more popular ones within the community, plus in the og time line she is brought back to life by kitana and jade so maybe that could happen again.

She will be, with this multiverse thing, anything is possible.

Ermac 1: You serve the Kahn! Ermac 2: I have found my own path, Ermac. Ermac 1: Then we must destroy you!

Yes, Ermac absorbed her soul when she died in the storyline

In your wife’s bedroom, give him a while

@@HAMZA_OLYMPUSmore in your face

Probably in the game’s files or something idk

In the next week, as they said on X.

God I hope Conan isn’t one of the next guest characters we literally just had terminator t-800 in mk11 we don’t need another arnie character

@@rommebernardcutamora ok the comic version of Conan would be cool though but the movie version no

and doom slayer and micheal myers in mk1

@@Dylannuyten Michael Myers Was Added To My Kombat Pack 3 List Alongside With Lilith (Diablo 4) Michonne Grimes Lara Croft Chainsaw Man And Terakomari Gandesblood But Doomslayer No.

Here's the thing, Ermac in this timeline is composed of all of the souls from the living forest. None of the souls there were souls of anyone evil. Even with Jerrod no longer in control, they were still on the side of light. Can't join a team that you were already on to begin with.

Invasion is not canon

It basically means if Ermac's souls cannot basically agree to act collectively, each soul will be trying to be the one in charge.

That was Quan Chi who betrayed him, not Shang Tsung

LSS: In the original timeline Ermac was an elusive ninja in which he had only ever appeared at certain times and has almost nothing known about him. In the NRS timeline (MK9-11) Ermac is a being created by Shao Kahn and is composed of hundreds, thousands, possibly even millions of souls across Outworld and even other realms. In Ermac’s MK9 ending, King Jarrod was revealed to be one of the many souls trapped within Ermac. Jarrod was able to fight for control over Ermac and was successful. He then rules Edenia alongside his wife, Sindel and daughter, Kitana. Liu Kang’s timeline took a similar approach, however, this time he is created by Quan Chi, instead of Shao. Jerrod once again is one of many souls trapped and after being beaten by his daughter Mileena, he’s able to take control. After her death, Sindel’s soul was able to be rescued by her husband and stored in Ermac’s very being. Her and Jerrod must fight a never ending battle for Ermac’s control as the many other souls also vie for their control over Ermac. Still long wasn’t it?

@@RedCommunistDragon Actually that is a perfect explanation. Thanks! 👍🏼👍🏼

@@joaosilva3378 No problem!😉

​@@RedCommunistDragon Wasn't Jerrod's soul in Ermac in MK Deception as well?

@@WeaponXSigma Possibly. Ermac’s original timeline story is kinda confusing. I’m unsure if it ever says Jerrod was a part of him back then but I can imagine so.

Last I checked, first it’s Ermac, then Homelander, and last but not least, Takeda.

Yes

Non binary wokemac

The only that has the right to say that.

Not because they're non-binary but because they are literally a lot of people.

@@WeaponXSigma yes that was the joke
