THE SHOW DOWN 1

Epic, cinematic showdown in pitch-black void. On the left, Sub-Zero glows with ethereal blue energy, summoning ice from his outstretched hand. Wisps of cryo-magic curl around his arm and torso. His blue-and-black ninja armor is hyper-detailed — textured fabric, frost-covered plates, sharp segmented mask, icy breath visible in the cold air. On the right, Scorpion radiates molten yellow-orange light, gripping a glowing kunai. His battle-worn yellow-and-black armor shows scorched textures and burning embers. His demonic mask smolders with fire-lit eyes and skeletal design. Between them floats the iconic Mortal Kombat dragon emblem — metallic, reflective, glowing blue eye. Dramatic volumetric lighting, cinematic shadows, and Unreal Engine realism with stylized NightCafe flair. Intense, high-contrast, ultra-detailed 8K render capturing the raw power of their eternal rivalry.
