I always had the head canon that after Bi-Han’s death in MK1, Shinnok personally tortured him in the Netherrealm as revenge for how the Lin Kuei inconvenienced him, burning away pieces of his soul until all that was left was a literal shadow. Then Noob was born as an exaggeration of all Bi-Han’s worst traits, while retaining all of his skill.

Looking back at that Games it hinted Bi-han did get annoyed that his brother was copying him as he said you always mimic me showing He knew he was trying to live up to being like him it also hinted Sektor might've used it and made him feel he could get whatever he wanted as don't forget not everyone starts off awful untill Someone like Sketor comes into the picture

To be fair, Bi-han did kill Scorpion so there was some vengeance to be had. But it was purely professional because they had conflicting goals. Quan Chi tried to make it an eternal hate by tricking scorpion that Bi Han also killed his clan. MK9 actually shows a good way of this that the two clearly have a history but Quan Chi was very much manipulating Scorpion. Especially before he kills Bi Han. "That was not me!"

[@josephtpg7329]

In one of Bi Han's MK1 lines with Liu Kang, he also shows remorse for apparently trusting Shang Tsung. He didn't know about Shang Tsung's experiments, and shows remorese for going along with them. He might actually be more complex than just a pure bad guy. This is especially because in the story footage we can see he doesn't hate his brother, and even tries to convince Kuai and Smoke that leading Earthrealm is a greater purpose than protecting it. He clearly has distrust for Liu Kang, but trusts his comrades (even if he doesn't show it as much as his brother).

[@Alex_Logan22]

All nuance is disregarded the moment he killed his dad, so its pointless to try to bring depth unless the dad actually did something objectively bad, rather than simply disagreeing with how the clan should be run. Bi-Han doesn't bow to Liu like he did Raiden in Mythologies, while Scorpion does. Scorpion's bio suggests he's gonna have to kill his brother.

[@skarlet9104]

[@oldmanwaterfall]

Bi-Han didn't seem like an evil character, maybe a relatively cut throat character but not evil. Even in MK9 while he was still alive he was a hired killer but objected to being accused of killing innocent families. Partly because he didn't do it but also it's probably not something he would proudly do. Cyrax, Kuai Liang, and Smoke were willing to make moral stances putting them odds with their clan and leading to their heroic alignment, we just don't get a chance to see how Bi-Han felt or would've reacted in these cases because he's dead and under mind control throughout the vast majority of the series.

[@guilhermemarinho9861]

I actually have A LOT to think about Bi-Han's potential in the MK universe so bear with me for a moment. One thing that I always found it fascinating about Noob Saibot was his Arcade Ending in MK9 I always liked the implication where he betrays both Shinnok and Quan-Chi to rule the Netherrealm himself because it works with the idea that Noob is just the worst emotions of Bi-Han taking form. He now hates his brother, relishes on killing, wants more power than ever, serves people that are clearly evil with genocidal and not just mercenaries that kill some people for money, but most importantly, his hatred got stronger, and what are the people he hated the most when he was alive? The Shirai Ryu, Quan Chi and Shinnok. Which is why he ended up betraying them and taking control of the Netherealm (He says in the trailers that they could lead Earthrealm meaning he possibly feels a bit like he could genuinely makes things better and now as Noob he is distorted to believe he can do that by force, which is why he took over Netherealm as opposed to just leave it there after defeating Shinnok and Quan Chi.) This can also apply to his corruption still not fully erasing his old self but just realizing what Bi-Han wanted in the wrong way, now that he conquers the Netherrealm and it's friends with Havik maybe he can revive Sareena, maybe he can also turn his brother into a Wraith so he can be with him again, the Netherealm are the source of Scorpion's power, maybe now he can make Scorpion weaker and kill him definitely, and he may even be able to finally stop killing after all his conquest is done. Another way this could be interpreted is that the Wraith transformation is flawed because it keeps corrupting the revived corpse making him more and more evil which is why Noob betrayed Quan Chi despite being a supposedly more loyal servant than Scorpion, which could also explain why Quan Chi kept changing ressurection methods until he finally hit it gold with the Revenants who couldn't be lead astray by sympathetic moments like Specters and wouldn't get so evil they would plan to betray him like Wraiths. Bi-Han's current positon could also make for some pretty interesting relationships with characters like Ahsrah and Sareena, Ahsrah could start the story hating Bi-Han and deciding to terminate him but later learning about what happened to him and end up feeling sympathetic for him since he was basically forced to be a demon like creature like her once was and maybe she could try to help him get better, there is also Sareena who was spared by Bi-Han once and almost got saved by him so now she can save him to finally thank him properly, hell there is dialogue in MKX that hints that she may even love Bi-Han so this makes the whole thing more interesting. Both Ahsrah and Sareena can even team-up for a while (which could result in other great interactions on it's own but we will talk about that other time) Overall Noob Saibot corruption has so much potential and I hope M 1 K can capitalize on that because it's genuinely fascinating.

[@jesusfontalvo703]

😂 this just proof, the most of the fans have at least better ideas for the plot but keep in mind i really think as franchise as big like MK games and movies doesn't exploit the real potential of the story because there is so much to cover.

Not sure if Bi-Han would’ve approved of being a cyborg though.

It would tie into his MK1 ending, give reason for the Lin Kuei fighting on Outworld’s side in the first tournament, and it would be a development of Raiden and Bi-Han’s interactions in Mythologies. It would show the grey area, where he is willing to commit cold-blooded killing in the name of his mission but also knowing he has to eventually change in order to save his soul; his death after this would be all the more in line with the tragic downfall. And, it would rectify the stupidity of having Sonya defeat him at all. The chapter system was stupid but that was one of the more egregious examples.

And they even kinda tied it back to his showing his compassion in Mythologies. Sareena arrives and saves Sub-Zero from getting killed there canonically.

Bi-han was a ruthless assassin and probably cared more for for the future of the Lin Kuei than for the good of Earthrealm. However, I find it hard to believe he would be needlessly cruel to his brother, his expected heir. Hard, certainly, but he would want him to excel, to showcase the best of their clan's strength. I can see them arguing over the future of the clan, Bi-han worrying over his brother's morality making him weak, but not him actively hating him from the start.

Thank you for this video, it’s actually staggering how many people think Bi Han is evil.

[@GrayCatbird1]

It’s worth noting that in MK11 Kuai Liang interacts with him as though Noob Saibot was Bi-Han’s true personality, rather than someone who’s been manipulated, which contrasts with how the revenants or even Sektor are regarded. In his eyes, Noob Saibot is his brother’s “true” form. Otherwise he wouldn’t have told him “we are not brothers”. It seems that from a writing perspective at least, the writers decided Bi-Han would have Noob Saibot’s personality from the get-go in MK1. It seems that if Bi-Han ever was anything else, perhaps everyone, not just the fans but the writers as well, have forgotten it.

My only problem with the story of Bi Han is they turn him into a different character and don't expand on it at all. They make him into another henchmen for the bigger villains, but it's obvious that his has motivations of his own. He's not like the others. He's always been seen as a very powerful and mysterious character but nothing ever happened. If the writers won't make Noob follow through with his goals and just make him a background character even though he has so much potential to be bigger, than at least follow through with Kuai Liangs story to cure Bi Han to get his brother back. In his mk11 dialogue, he talks about the circumstances that made him into Noob. Let him pursue his goals: Getting revenge on Scorpion for killing him, getting revenge of Quan chi for framing him. There is so much potential for development to make a great story for Bi Han and it pains me to see this character go to waste.

In MK Mythologies, Bi-Han went into the NetherRealm on Raiden's command to steal back Shinnok's amulet, and that's what he does. If he was always meant to be an evil bastard, why did he turn down Quan Chi's offer to join the Brotherhood of Shadow and serve Shinnok in that game? Bottom line, Bi-Han only starts being evil AFTER he is transformed into Noob Saibot. Quan Chi simply told him the evil deep down is what allowed him to enter the NetherRealm, but as you said, he's an assassin, a trained killer; of course he has some evil in him!

To me the ultimate wasted plotline is Kuai Liang and a reformed scorpion trying to restore bi han.

[@PaleoNerd1905]

While this is obviously just a headcanon, I think it could be interesting if Quan Chi turned Bi-Han into Noob Saibot as a form of revenge for foiling his plan in Mythologies, deliberately stripping him of his identity and literally making him a shadow of his former self. I'm also suspicious that part of Bi-Han's flanderization is due to the need for the MK writers to make Scorpion a protagonist in the story to match his popularity, and therefore requiring the man who killed him to be painted as the "bad guy", when having the two be nuanced characters both equally in the right and wrong (perhaps by making it clear that both clans have blood on their hands, rather than making the Shirai Ryu seem like the better of the two). Perhaps even establishing that Hanzo would have killed Bi-Han had the roles been reversed in Mythologies would go far in clarifying that not only is Hanzo also an assassin with blood on his hands, but also that Bi-Han was somewhat justified in killing him, since they're mortal enemies.

I also think the biggest hint was after Scorpion was shown the false past of Sub-Zero killing his family and clan, Bi-Han tried to plead with him that he didn't do that at all. If Bi-Han was indeed a total irredeemable person, why would he even try to deny something that he had supposedly had caused? It would go against of pretty much everything of what he had done prior during his life as an assassin, and he would know directly what he has caused and the people he has killed since he is an assassin.

[@StormX6]

Developers only made Bi-Han (prior to becoming Noob) evil just so Scorpion would come across as “the good guy”. Which is total BS considering Scorpion was actually a villain who would cause problems for the protagonists. Ed Boon is a big Scorpion fan, so that’s why Hanzo is all of a sudden a hero.

[@PrimevalParadise]

My personal headcanon who Bi Han is as a person is what most people wanted Kuai Liang's arc to be, but with him almost refusing to fully change. Basically, he's a person that keeps the Lin Kuei first and foremost, even if others try to reach out to him and thaw his frozen heart He clearly has compassion for Sareena and concern of things being too late to save his soul. He seems like the type of person that understands where he is in the world and is mostly content with it. Granted, Sareena and the compassion he felt for her may have made him rethink that position, suggesting a thawing heart, but he purposefully keeps his true emotions locked up

[@doomeranon8669]

the idea that Bi Han is evil because of what he said in MK11 is also dumb because the same character in intros shows the human element trying to break free like when he talks about how Scorpion killing him and looking for justice, only to get told to get fucked by the good guys. Bi Han wasn't always a good person but to claim he never had any good parts or had some kind of love for his brother is absurd.

And just make him evil...Though kuai as the new scorpion gives me some hope that bi-han won't be a villain as time goes on.

So it may make sense why he would be so cold on this game Hopefully by the next MK we'll be given something that shows his good side as he will go from possible villain to anti hero. Maybe sareena will have something to do with it or maybe we'll have a version of Noob that'll be that bi-han's literal evil clone so in that case he does not have to die and gives him the chance to reform... who knows we just gotta cross our fingers and hope on this one
