Hapkido fighting stance

Hapkido is a highly eclectic South Korean martial art that employs hand and leg strikes at a long distance and joint locks and throws at close range, emphasizing circular motion.

Mortal Kombat[]

Hapkido is used by Scorpion as his primary fighting style in Mortal Kombat: Deadly Alliance, Deception, Unchained and Armageddon.

It is also used as a primary fighting style by Blaze in Mortal Kombat: Deadly Alliance and Unchained because of him only having access to fighting styles from other characters, and by Noob Saibot in Mortal Kombat: Tournament Edition, because he was a palette swap version of Scorpion in that game.

The character Monster also used this fighting style in Deception's Konquest Mode, due to being a reskin of Scorpion.

Trivia[]

  • During development of Mortal Kombat: Deadly Alliance, Hapkido was used as a placeholder fighting style for characters whose actual styles had yet to be implemented. This can be seen in many in-development screenshots of the game. This practice continued during the developments of Deception and Armageddon.
