från gamefaqs Shang Tsung- This guy isn't much of a challenge. He transforms into 3 people (Sub-Zero, Johnny Cage, and Reptile). Just beat him up, block a lot, and don't over do your combos. After you've finished him, you'll face Kintaro. Kintaro- This isn't any different from Goro. Just use the hit and run strategy with your projectile. You may combo if you know what you're doing. If you're Liu Kang, you can run and use your rolling launch attack. When he leaps up the air, just stand still and if you see his shadow, immmidietly long jump away from him. After you've killed him, you'll face Shao Khan Shao Khan- Okay now you'll face off against the infamous Shao Khan. Expect him to be a challenge. Use the hit and run method and stay clear of his shoulder blocks. Stay as far away from his as possible. Don't try your combos or else he'll dominate you because he has counters for everything. Don't worry much about his projectile, it's pretty useless. Sometimes, he'll taunt you so he'll be very open. About half way, it'll be hammer time. Khan will use his signature hammer on you. Just run around the arena and throw projectiles at him. At one point, he'll spin around and use an attack that'll range through the whole arena. To escape that, do two long jumps and a double jump. With patience and some luck,
