in mk1 after raiden winning the battle for the representative warrior of earthrealm, liu kang gave him an amulet forged by the elder Gods.. That amulet gave him the power of lightning. And no, he’s not a God there, he’s a human

@@schlinderrojas8555bro this whole clip was explaining who this new Raiden wtf u going to expect.

[@gamio4891]

The amulet is the exact same amulet that the og raiden was given liu kang brought back the amulet because he even said that the elder gods made it which ovi would not make sense for the elder gods to make several of these amulets and it was also proven that liu kang when he got the amulet he put raidens powers into the amulet which is the reason why liu kang does not have the lighting anymore and the blue fire is just a sign of him being the god of fire and the protector of earth realm which makes sense because in past mortal kombat the color blue was an indication of the protector of earthrealm

Liu Kang is the keeper of time, so he can basically forge everyone's destinies. From the Elder Gods, to Gods to mortals...

[@theillustriousone8324]

He only keeps time, he can't control anyone or their abilities. Someone commented on another video something very true, if the keeper of time could control people then Kronika could've just killed Raiden in MK11 and been done with him. But the keepers of time can only control and reset time, but all the characters have their own free will

[@idontcare2394]

Well liu kang could throw fire balls when he was a human

[@M-420]

Yea but I think Liu Kang was born with those powers. I thought raiden got his powers from the gods. I could be wrong tho

[@RHFactor100]

To me, Kitana taught him how to unlock and use his fire elemental. After all, traveling to a foreign realm and meeting the inhabitants who practice magic could have a consequence. What a coincidence. Onaga was the ruler of Outworld and he gave Shujinko powers to copy any fighting style, Johnny Cage got his powers while fighting Shinnok and Kenshi got telekinesis by fighting Ermac using Sento. Although Liu Kang had fire powers before he met Kitana, maybe he did not learn how to master his Chi as yet because being a Shaolin monk takes years or more to master the various styles and traditions, if you know what I mean.

[@mary3111]

​@@M-420raiding was born with his powers he's a Demi god his father is a elder god

[@morganrobinson1489]

All Lui Kang did was reset the timeline. People kept their abilities. Like the flash movie it explains how changing any event in time still has a point of similarity and difference (mileena has the mouth but this time its not from tarkattan breeding)

[@juliantapia1407]

I'm not sure about that. Obviously we know that Any of them could've reset the time line, didn't need god powers for that. But then we saw liu in this new past with the ancestor kung Lao, and he still had the same appearance as the dual fire/thunder god. Maybe he gives it up, or loses it when 'raiden' is (re)born? We still don't fully know all the changes liu enacted, and I'm really looking forward to seeing everything that's changed.

[@morganrobinson1489]

@@juliantapia1407 Lui Kang was the new moulder of time who made a peaceful world and stepped down. He wanted to see the world make itself instead. Everyone kept what they had because it had always occured in timelines. He didnt want to tamper with anything and seeing as DC and mortal kombat co exist, its the only explanation. No theories needed as lui kang introduced himself to the new kung lao and raiden because he'd only just stepped down at that point. Same with kenshi going blind from reading the book of knowledge, in the new game it might be something different but ut was confirmed we'd be told the new story. The only reason titans dont dictate anymore is because lui kang and raiden merged to destroy kronika, scorpion had the potential to kill another titan. Instead of opposing, scorpion and sub zero still have their powers but are now 'brotherly'.

[@morganrobinson1489]

@@juliantapia1407 when Shang Tsung won, he absorbed fire god lui kang with raiden merged but made a new timeline where he was an elder god and raiden and fujin still exist. Due to Shang wanting to always win, he wouldve killed lui kang in every timeline to assure no threat to himself. Thus meaning characters always keep everything

[@M-420]

Interesting my friend

[@Jcobboi]

​@@morganrobinson1489i love this theory because its what i thought to. Like maybe the result of two timelines being created and the result of two endings. People argued over which ending was canon in aftermath, what if they were both canon. Shang tsung invades liu kangs timeline for more power and they fight

[@TrollDecker]

He's probably just a human with Shaolin magic, like Liu Kang originally was.

[@M-420]

Hmmmm ye tru

[@oraoraora1509]

Because liu kang want change timeline have broken by cronika .

[@ItzMirMir00]

He will give raiden an amulet that grants him the power of lightning and thunder

[@mrseals9083]

Liu Kang was the fire and thunder God in mk11 now he's just the fire God maybe when he reset the timeline he gave back Raiden his lightning powers

[@M-420]

Hmmmm ye truu

[@Reptilinizor]

Bro is spitting facts, all of this is true

[@dylanhilton220]

I mean makes sense that it’s a completely different version of Raiden, maybe when Liu Kang remade the timeline he made it so that Raiden would still have his powers. Maybe even unintentionally, seeing as that’s how everyone views Raiden; the guy with lightning. Like he wasn’t paying attention and “oops Raiden has powers again, oh well.

[@mandysingleton3440]

Powers actually came back in Chapter 2 Mortal Kombat 11

[@carlojanolino9226]

See the dialogue of kung lao and kenshi it states that earth realm’s champion are rewarded by the amulet which is bestowed by Thunder God Raiden in Mortal Kombat 11 when he took it from Shinook and make him evil. That amulet rewarded into him which unlocks his powers that is already been there.

[@M-420]

Ohhhhhhhhh wow that's sick I didn't know that

[@carlojanolino9226]

@@M-420 yep and see the clip in rulers of outworld raiden is holding the amulet on his left arm when charging lightning after that. He put it in his belt.

[@jacobcornett323]

Maybe this "Temple of the Elements" might have done something

[@M-420]

Yeaa I'm curious bout that. I heard it in the dialogue but no idea what it means haha

[@sweatyboi440]

Literally the same way why og liu Kang had fire powers

Turns out liu kang just gave his ass an amulet lmao

[@M-420]

😭 I thought it was gonna be cooler than that

[@7eraa913]

😂😂😂😂

[@PyroX-5]

1st theory is correct

[@Jaiczee]

I imagine that Liu Kang and Fujinn came together and help give Raiden his powers back.

[@M-420]

Yooooo I do wanna see fujin in this new timeline

[@U.RAGE247]

Old storyline was goated tbh

[@TheMark001100]

Mortal kombat 1 is a new cycle of time line

[@CaptPizza]

Maybe he’s a Demi-God.

[@chimpo961]

It's more like he's human, but he may have a god complex so which means he can become a demigod

[@CaptPizza]

Or maybe he can conjure lightning chi like how liu kang can conjure fire chi.

[@Stingray2651]

Lui kang had fire powers without being fire god lui kang so I’m sure raiden is the same

[@M-420]

I guess so but I thought Raiden had lighting because he was a god, not cuz he was born with it ya feel me

[@Sovitman3000]

He was so spot on

[@phantomlm]

I believe liu kang placed the thunder powers in the amulet for raiden to use

[@PotatoChips1223]

Liu Kang made an lighting amulet from his lightning power and gave it to the champion

[@yigityildirim9877]

İmagine if the new era(mk1 and the games that will be sequel) and old era(not mk1,mk2 etc im talking about mk9,10,11) crashes in one of the games(it wont make sense at first game) and everybody starts a fight except mk1 liu kang and after like 2 episodes they finally understand that they are not enemies and than they team up for a big enemy(shang tsung,kronika,shao kahn or someone else) and in the end mk1 liu kang sacrifises himself to defeat enemy but there will be so much deaths from new and old era and both of the era's mix and in the other games we see some characters from new era and some dead characters replaced with their other era forms

[@M-420]

That would be interesting 🔥

[@korbynengelhardt1402]

I hate hearing about what people think is the actual truth to something they’ve never experienced to all they are doing is shooting their hypothesis in the air hopping it will hit something like just look it up if you don’t know don’t go around telling people what you believe if true when the facts are so easily obtainable😭

[@M-420]

This was made way before the game came out, you couldn't look it up then 💀

[@AI2S3NAL]

[@naturalprodigy8223]

Yes and no it's a continuation of mk11 Aftermath DLC possible theory that Shang Tsung mk11 timeline is actually Liu Kang in disguise because the reveal trailer showed Liu Kang looking a lot different with his attitude and tone

[@naturalprodigy8223]

And if you think about it I'm pretty sure Liu Kang deleted Shang Tsung so why does the new timeline have a the current timeline Shang Tsung

[@user-hs1xp7jh2j]

He gave raiden an amulet with lightning power in it

[@BiggestChungus21]

I'm here from the future. He's just him and Liu Kang just swapped lives. He's just the Old Liu Kang with Raiden moveset and Liu Kang is just Raiden with Kung Lao moveset

[@cocotank2647]

In campaign lui kang is giving shinoks medallion that gives him powers again

[@prime6485]

Lu kang changed raiden behavior because he is in a fear that raiden my get corrupted in future as we know how Dark Raiden kill shinnok

[@mandysingleton3440]

He got his power back in chapter 2 of Mortal Kombat He was in story mode

[@exilehell6521]

He was given a amulet by liu kang that can create electric waves without him getting zapped.

[@CrownedKupid]

Yes Liu king gave him shinnoks amulet that granted him access to the powers

[@jehuazrielventura5409]

As of MK12 being released, Raiden is now a human, and got his powers after winning his title as the representative of Earthrealm, by Liu Kang giving him an amulet forged by the elder gods, giving him the power over lightning and thunder. And yes, RAIDEN IS VERY MUCH INDEED YOUNG AND IS IN HIS HIGH SCHOOL DAYS

[@s3npai420]

My theory is that he will use a magic amulate

[@ScribbleGraPhics]

Maybe this was way before his powers were given to him 🤯🤯🤯

[@M-420]

Yeeee maybe

[@DigrajSinghRajput2148]

Actually, the real deal is that in MK11, Lui Kang promises to rebuild the past to raiden. Hence, he alters the timeline to where it all started. And he gives raiden back his powers which he deserved. This raiden we see is the raiden in all other mortal komabats but, his past has been shown in MK1

[@J21C412D0]

hear me out, maybe he gives him an amulet that gives the user teh powers of thunder and lightning?

[@M-420]

Haha yea he does I realised after the game came out

[@J21C412D0]

Lol yeah I saw the story mode movie first day it came out.

[@joec.1766]

I thought he could of been Lui Kangs replacement. Pretty much them swapping spots.

[@HESTHEMANN]

It’s actually bc in mk11 lui kang took his powers but then lui kang went back in time to mk1 and then old raiden had his powers

[@RainVeraking]

Liu Kang gave Raiden his thunder Power after he made the new timeline ❤

[@buttersleopaldstoch5793]

He wasn't born with his powers in this timelime, it comes from the medallion. In the trailers and every match opening he holds the medallion and is empowered by lightning.

[@M-420]

Yee I realised what that medallion was when the game came out

[@ethandawson1252]

The way I like to see it is that in the past games Raiden was the thunder God but Lui Kang controlled fire, now Lui Kang is the fire God now Raiden controls the thunder

[@jamess0258]

Well yeah lui kang no longer has lightning powers. But is a god. So he kept raidens god hood but gave back new raidens powers.

[@M-420]

Rlly I thought he kept the lighting

[@ijj2286]

Amulet.

[@CurtisWilliamsDomain]

Liu Kang gave him the amulet and told him it will give him powers! That same amulet he work that cracked. So that's most likely the source of his power🎉

[@hahafsjskayshdoshssgs7624]

Bro predicted it

[@M-420]

😂 I guess I did

[@GamemoblieZ]

I thought Lui King was a God of fire and lightning. But from Mk1, I see he's now just a god of fire. 🤷🏾

[@edsontorres6392]

This is explained in the story mode of mk1

[@law132003]

Lui Kang gave raiden thunder talisman in the story line remember? But what I don’t like is that lui kang doesn’t have thunder and can’t transport why they take it back?

[@ChileanRex]

He put all of his lightning powers in the amulet

[@alexanderg5238]

Well what I see is that in mk11 lui Kang was called God of fire and thunder and in mk1 now is just God of fire only and I don't see his hands with lightning or anything so maybe he gave raiden his power back

[@M-420]

Hmmmm yee that could be the case

[@TylorZoo]

You can’t give Raiden an ambulance that gave him his powers back

[@GamerArtificial-cl6md]

In Mk1 after winnig the the fight against kung lao luikang gives him an amulet with the power of lightning Lui kang doesnt use his pightning because he forged the amulet and gave the amulet his lightning power thats why ye doesnt use his lightning powers

[@neuro1996]

Been a god makes u immortal u will not age as well and time will affect u differently. Raiden still got his power using a host the amulet forged by the elder god just like shinnok amulet except it doesn't host the darkness.
