MKRedemption19180 Kano telling Shinnok about Quan Chi having the real ammulet is actually a brilliant idea. It's just the kind of thing I'd expect him to do: telling someone's secrets behind their backs to a superior in exchange for a reward - which is actually what he's done to Sheeva in MK3. Kano might be a good fighter, but not powerful enough to overthrow Quan Chi or Shinnok by force, so that's how he gets power: using things like dirty little secrets.

I wouldn't be expecting a rivalry between the Black Dragon and the Brotherhood of Shadows though. For a simple reason: the Brotherhood would end it by killing all the Black Dragon members in a matter of minutes. I mean, come on. The Black Dragon is composed of human fighters from Earthrealm who usually have no special powers save from proficiency in martial arts. The Brotherhood is composed of armies demons, wraiths, onis etc from the Netherrealm, including two of the most cruel, powerful and unpredictable beings the universe has ever know: Quan Chi and Shinnok. Not even Kabal, who could at least run away from the battle and save himself, is from the Black Dragon anymore. So what chance do people like Kano, Kobra, Kira and Jarek stand? Not assuming that these three are coming back, of course, and not saying they're the only Black Dragon warriors, but you got the point.

MKRedemption and Dragonspyne Regarding the fight between Quan Chi and Kano: I wouldn't expect Kano to be coming out of it alive. I like the Scarface thing, but do you remember Quan Chi in MK4? He could explode people in a burst of blood and organs without any effort (at least in most of the arcade ladder endings in which he appeared). He even exploded Shinnok in his own ending. If he kills Kano, which I believe to be probable, he even could try and get Shinnok killed right after it if he wanted to. After all, he still bears the real ammulet, which he used to explode Shinnok in the aforementioned MK4 ending. I wouldn't expect this fight to happen because I believe Kano will be more focused in Cassie. You know, all that thing about wanting to kill the girl because of his rivalry with Sonya. I think either Cassie will kill Kano or vice-versa, can't bet on any of them.

I gave my opinion about Jarek in Armageddon in a comment following that one. I would write about it again, but I'm feeling lazy and wrote too much already. Consider the comment I made before this one as a reply to yours, Dragonspyne.
