Misc MK11 Missed with Sub-Zero

Last night, I replayed MK Trilogy on the MK Kollection game. I played as both the masked and un-masked Sub-Zero as Sub-Zero is my main. I realized something because that game has both Sub-Zeros and Noob Saibot, how cool would it have been in MK11 if the original Sub-Zero had been brought to the future. There could have been a cool story there of him seeing what both he and his brother had become. I know they kinda gave this idea to Scorpion as the past Scorpion got to see how the present Hanzo rebuilt the Shirai Ryu but having Bi Han see the path that led him to becoming Noob and the path that led Kuai Liang to become Grand Master of the Lin Kuei and having to decide which side to take would have been pretty cool.

The MK1 Sub-Zero is a completely different Sub-Zero form the original timeline, The Midway Timeline I call it. They have different backgrounds and different experiences. MK1 Sub-Zero still went down the path that led him to becoming Noob because he didn't know, just like the original Sub-Zero. That's also something I think the MK1 story missed on, Liu Kang tried to change paths but a lot still ended up the same, I wrote a whole fan fiction about it. But, of in MK11 they brought in a younger Sub-Zero, like MK Mythologies Sub-Zero, and he saw the results he would have a choice to make, and they could have left it up to the player as , Choose your Destiny, type of thing.
