I have to admit I hate Cyber Sub-Zero. He is human, and IMO I think the cyber dudes should be those who were already cyber (Sektor, Cyrax, Smoke...). I respect if you think the contrary, but Sub-Zero as cyber was an abomination for me.

If you look closely on today's trailer, you will notice that in the fight of Sonya vs Quan Chi (seems to have a little cutscene first, so I think she will have to beat him in the story), the sorcerer is using that chest skull of his. I'm having the impression Shinnok allowed Quan Chi to use the real Amulet and then replaced Quan Chi with that thing on his chest. If Quan Chi replicated, something must have happened to change this outcome.

Specially because now, for Quan Chi to have the Amulet, he will be taking the risk of unleashing Shinnok (we know Quan Chi is not loyal to him at all). Unless Shinnok is trapped in a fake Amulet, but I doubt Quan Chi would be using that thing instead of the original.

'''SPOILERS ABOUT THE COMICS!!!!!!! I HAVE READ IT, EVERYTHING SAID BEFORE IS 100%. YET, THERE ARE VERY IMPORTANT POINTS TO BE ADDED TO THIS THREAD:'''

(I wrote this on TRMK too, so, pardon me any inconsistencies on dialogue, read it again quickly)

This comic is surely not showing, YET, what (WHO) will trigger the events of the game.

Without a doubt, The Amulet is the center piece of this plot. Comic konfirms this and trailer too.

But the Amulet now is worst than ever, because Shinnok is inside.

As I commented before, Raiden is very sure that the "demon" is  corrupting the true nature of the Kamidaggers.

The relics, used to split the One Being, are being used for another purpose, as keys.

Ok, but the big info is what Raiden says about whatever is corrupting them.

He says:  "Whoever corrupted the Kamidogu seeks to obtain the Amulet of Shinnok."

And then, on the scene showing Sub-Zero, the "demon" says  "Blood is the path. The time of the Blood God is near".

Havik mentions to Reiko that he must kollect the Kamidogu to become the Blood God, and he knows where they are.

We could certaily think "Havik is corrupting the Kamidogu". But I don't see this way.

It's clear to me, so far, that  Havik and Reiko want to strip Kotal Kahn's power but they are NOT controlling the blood magick. They are trying to acquire it.

And the "demon" talking to Sub-Zero  is guiding him through the blood path/kode.

Havik is setting events to create chaos. That "tournament" on the island, just for chaos. Reiko as Emperor and god, just because he knows Reiko will be a brutal tyrant.

<span style="color:rgb(255,255,255);font-family:Verdana,Arial,Tahoma,Calibri,Geneva,sans-serif;font-size:13px;line-height:normal;">But the blood magick is an instrument for them: the corruption of the Kamidaggers seems to be something beyond their interests and focusing on The Amulet and the Blood God, the one Reiko wants to become.

<span style="color:rgb(255,255,255);font-family:Verdana,Arial,Tahoma,Calibri,Geneva,sans-serif;font-size:13px;line-height:normal;">Confusing, but that's what I understood.
