No One is Impressed by Kung Lao's Hat 

Of all the characters, Scorpion being the one who appreciates the hat caught me off guard.

"Lose to a fool in a silly hat" Said the guy that canonically lost to a guy with the same type of hat, minus the razor blades.

In a single universe I would like this Kung Lao to be the chosen one. In the game they treat him as arrogant but he gladly accepted Raiden's victory and being chosen.

Smoke and Scorpion liking his hat makes sense when they are two warriors that rely a lot on weapons and tools that may appear gimmicky (kunai on rope, little mall ninja knife), so they understand the value of a ingenious weapon. While everyone who disses Kung’s hat tend to be magic users of some kind so all they see is a silly hat without thinking about how that shit can just cut your head off.

I love how instead of being this crazy weapon everyone just accepts as normal in-world, the hat's now just a crazy gimmick glued together by a country boy. Makes it all the more charming imo

Can we talk about Johnny just casually being in the background and recording Kung Lao's hat

Everyone: funny hat Scorpion:👍

At least smoke and scorpion likes it 😂

I like that Johnny already had his phone out like he knew Kung Lao was up to something cool or Kung Lao told him to record it.

Kung Lao slowly but surely feeling the same as Speedwagon felt after he used his own hat the one time.

As kids many of us wanted a hat like Kung Lao. As adults we still do but maybe put it on display.

"No One is Impressed by Kung Lao's Hat" Smoke: "I want the hat."

Scorpion definitely was thinking "Its silly, but I do find it creative. I'll just compliment him so that I don't hurt his feelings."

Kung Lao is one of the characters who stuck out to me because of his iconic hat.

I feel like Smoke was the only one who actually liked the hat

It did crack me up that this universe wasn’t supposed to have mortal kombat, the tournament wasn’t supposed to involve serious injury or death, but Lui Kang didn’t say shit about Kung Lao wanting to bring the equivalent of a circular saw into a fist fight

Reptile: not bad Scorpion: it’s genius Smoke: I want one! Everyone else: it’s a stupid idea

knowing Yuri voiced Smoke just give me a mental image of Spidey wanting to try that hat out

Kung Lao's hat is more iconic than half the roster.

Honestly Kuai Liang liking the hat def explains why we got 2 different fusions of Scorpion and Kung Lao as one of the many multiversal fighters

Only Erron Black compliments Kung Lao's hat. I wish he can return as dlc.

General Shao would be the type to be killed by a fool in a silly hat.

Kung Lao: for the last time, Deadpool, my hat is not for sell. Deadpool: come on! It'll be the highest bid on eBay.

I am impressed. No matter others are or not. It is a damnn creative weapon!

Kung Lao hat will always be legendary I don t care what the characters said about his razor blade hat

0:31 ALL IT TOOK WAS FOUR WORDS FROM SYZOTH

Bruh imagine being roasted by a dude from 1665💀 0:19

His hat is amazing and I'm glad we got to see where the idea came from 😂

Tbh rain had the best diss here. " i command water... u comand a hat?"

Scorpion is a true homie

My first experience with the Mortal Kombat franchise was with Mortal Kombat 9, and Kung Lao became one of my favorite characters because I thought his razor hat was so cool. I do miss the fact that he used his hat in many of strings in Mortal Kombat 11, it was such a cool detail, wish they kept that.

Smoke did seem to like the hat though

Smoke: GIVE ME YOUR HAT!

Smoke: "I want a hat too."

At least Smoke appreciates the hat.

I will never stop having to remind myself that Kuai Liang is Scorpion because Hanzo would probably have dismissed the hat.

Kung Lao: You fight with arrows Green Arrow: you fight with a Hat

He said it, its a chakram. Holy shit.

0:10 idk why i laugh so hard at Kung Lao facial expression XD

Every Other MK Character's Weapons: Spears, Axes, Hammers, Elemental Powers, Hair Kung Lao: H A T

Smoke seems interested in that hat.

I’m surprised Johnny Cage didn’t call him Oddjob

Kung Lao: I lost but i don't have any money Smoke: Give me your hat!

Kung Lao: you like my hat? Nitara: yeah yeah now breed with me

I like how johnny is just there filming the entire scene haha

I believe that Smoke genuinely likes the hat and isn’t just saying that to get under Kung Laos skin.

awww Smoke actually wants the hat XD

“It is a worthless gimmick, Kung Lao” You sure about that, Subs? Because inspirations prior worked on you.

The Rain interaction cracks me up everytime, delvery is amazing

Oddjob attempted to sue, but since Kung Lao's hat is not a bowler hat, he didn't get anywhere.

Kung Lao: why is everyone not liking my hat? Deadpool: come on, you know why.

Smoke: *The hat, give it to me*

Reptile: “sure bro”

Did Lei Mei do something naughty with the hat? 😂😂😂

The characters are so fun to watch in mk1. NR did a great job reimagining them.

1:00 I just noticed Johnny Cage, in the background, recording the hat trick on his cellphone.

I just love to picture the conversation Between Raiden and Kung Lao with Mileena and Kitana Mileena: *Carrying a bucket of Nails* Kitana: "That is Unsafe and dangerious Mileena" Mileena: "Ima spit it at people"

Rain wearing a covid mask 😂

From one hat guy to another, cool hat 🤠

Kung Lao getting mad when someone insulted his hat is like how Josuke feel when somebody insulted his hair.

Smoke and Scorpion are true G:s

Cool Video!

Damn, was hoping Cage would call him Oddjob at some point.

Erron Black: from hat guy to another, cool hat KL: but yours isn't also a projectile EB: well that's just weird, Kung Lao...

It's a large chakram and a boomerang, and both are real world weapons. Granted, most other people he's fighting have greater superhuman powers than that, but it's not nothing.

One of the coolest gimmicks in mk.

I mean Smoke using that hat effectively is a terrifying thought.

never thought i’d hear shao utter the word “silly”

Glad to know there are some whom love the hat

Honestly, I'd love to see a short comic about Kung Lao and Oddjob from James Bond swapping stories about lethal hats :D.

You gotta feel for Kung Lao everyone hates him while everyone worships his best friend because he's the Chosen One....

smoke be like : i want the hat

Nice Hat!

Quan Chi: Is that a razor brimmed hat!?

Smoke is impressed, he wants that hat!

I mean... practicality aside, it takes a nifty mind to think of a crazy idea like a chakram hat and make it work well... gotta give Kung Lao this, at least.

In every timeline after the first, kung lao will be made fun of lol

im glad all people in the comment loves his hat all dudes i know irl keep dissing Kung Lao's hat just like these characters and im being the only one to love it feels like an outkast :'3 legend recogizes ones love yall we, erron black, scorpion and even smoke is in the same team. thanks edboon

"Lose to a fool with a silly hat?" to be fair, Raiden also wears a similar hat

Other characters: i have the powwr of ice, fire, smoke, lighting, etc Kung Lao: HaT!

title : no one is impressed with dung lao's hat smoke : *_I W A N T T H E H A T_*

its okay kung lao i appreciate your hat

Wait until he starts teleporting with the hat.

I just noticed Johnny filming in the background

Lose to a fool in a silly hat? I mean...💀

I knew he'd cut himself on that hat one of these days lol

Homelander: Your hat’s fucking ridiculous. Kung Lao: This hat is much more deadly than you think. Peacemaker: From what I heard about Scorpion, he actually likes your hat. Kung Lao: Do you feel the same way he does about my hat?

Let Kung Lao cook 🔥

Respect to Tomas and Kuai Lang were loving the hat and screw the ones who don't

Well at least smokes wants that hat lmao xd

You know you went too far when even Shang Tsung mentions your ego

Personally I love that hat😊, and despite the other characters only Scorpion and Smoke like it😊😅

My hat, it has sharp edges. Sharp edges has my hat. And if it had not sharp edges, it would not be my hat.

Kung lao loves his hat like Luffy loves his strawhat

He's so proud of it tho 😢

And he actually thanks Sub Zero for his hat. 😂

It's a distraction weapon. While you're busy trying to wrap your head around how someone could be so stupid as to try and use it in combat, he throat punches you.

"Cool hat :)"

Never underestimate the hat home bro

In another Timeline, Kung Lao becomes the God of hats and thunder
