Sub-Zero is one of the playable fighters from the Mortal Kombat series.
Bio[edit | edit source]
Sub-Zero technically is a title held by two distinct individuals. The former, a man named Bi-Han, fought under this name in the original Mortal Kombat game before he got killed and was ressurect as the Netherworld revenant Noob Saibot. The latter and current Sub-Zero is Bi-Han's younger brother Kuai-Liang, who has held the title since Mortal Kombat II.
A descendant of Otherworlders fittingly known as Cryomancers, Sub-Zero can manipulate the elements of ice and frost to great (and generally lethal) effect. Favorite party tricks of his hence include both creating an ice statue of himself to distract enemy opponents and turning said opponents into ice statues themselves so they no longer need to be distracted. His time in, ethically motivated (i.e., not wanting to get a metal ass) rebellion against, and eventual leadership of the assassin clan dubbed the 'Lin Kuei' furthermore provides him with plenty of experience when it comes to hand-to-hand-combat.
Although he originally fought to avenge the death of his older brother, Sub-Zero subsequently has turned into one of the strongest defenders of Earthrealm. The only downside is that it usually takes a call from his old buddy Raiden before the iceman gets his frosty backside moving.
In 8chanmania[edit | edit source]
Sub-Zero's days in the mania start early, namely in the Christmas- (and ice-)themed 8chanmania IX. Lacking documentation means we don't know who he fought there, but rest assured, he didn't win the belt that went to Wampa.
He likewise fought in 8chanmania X, where he teamed up with Scorpion. Team MK unfortunately got an instant fatality; being physically removed by Tormund Giantsbane and Sandor Clegane.
It would take a whole year before Sub-Zero arrived for the next Christmas Event: 8chanmania XLIII. There, he delivered a rather shameful show; being done in by his own rebellious subordinate Frost.
Did we mention he really likes the cold season? Because Sub-Zero was back another (and the potentially last) Christmas in 8chanmania LXXIV. Defying Phanta Claws, he mistook the STC the latter was trying to give to him as an STD and politely refused the gift, only for him to take down Sumo Santa as well. He found his master in Matthew Stevens during the quarter finals.
