Defeating Shinnok
Once you have reached Shinnok, penetrating his shield
is impossible. Wait until he throws a blast at your character,
which usually happens after he says "Feel My Power".
After that happens, prepare to throw a Polar Blast. Timing is
critical -- as soon as he throws his blast throw your blast and
then freeze him again. Quickly turn and run to the teleporter
to teleport behind him. Quickly turn again, run up behind him,
and press "Take" ([L1]) to grab the Medallion. Freezing
him in the center of the platform works best because you do not
have a lot of time to run up behind him. He will scream "Not
My Medallion" and turn into a monster. Rayden's Portal will
appear. Do not battle the monster. Instead, jump through the Portal
and meet Rayden and Shang Tsung.
To defeat Shinnok's monster form, staying a good distance away
from him and execute the Polar Blast as many times as needed until
he dies and falls off the bridge. Stay at a distance where you
can still see him. Note: This requires a lot of urns. Enabling
the "Unlimited urns" code is recommended.
Defeating Quan Chi
When reach Quan Chi, he will teleport closer to you
if you use a projectile. Otherwise, he will run to you. Use this
opportunity to Neck Kick him. Repeat this until he is down. If
you land behind him and he is firing a projectile, freeze him
(preferably with the normal Ice Blast as it is the quickest and
consumes the least ice energy) and use an uppercut. If he gets
the best of you in the air, use a jump kick, but press the kick
button you use at a real early point in your jump. After you regain
air superiority, return to the Neck Kick strategy. After defeating
Sareena, you will get a choice whether or not to kill her. When
Quan Chi is down to 10% health remaining, the impact of your choice
in the battle against Sareena is shown. If you killed Sareena,
you will have to deliver Quan Chi's deathblow yourself. However,
if you had mercy on Sareena and decided not to kill her, she will
use the teleporter at that time and kill Quan Chi.
