Not only were they exhausted, but Sindel was also imbued with Shang Tsung's power; combined with her own power, she was more than powerful enough to take on a bunch of exhausted Earthrealm warriors.

As for the original topic, Shang Tsung's death by Shao Kahn's hand was inevitable. Tsung failed twice, nearly costing Shao Kahn his life the second time, and attempted to usurp the throne afterward. Looking back, he should have killed Tsung off in the original timeline, instead of granting him more and more power.

I rather enjoyed the story mode in MKX. I didn't pick up on a lot of the political nuances because honestly, it's a damn game and I'm playing to kill shit (or get killed, but I digress). I give zero fucks about who's fucking who or the significance of a woman curb-stomping Shinnok's demonic ass.
