Shao Kahn in Story mode hint: To easily defeat Shao Kahn in the final battle, retreat as you would normally. He will then do one of three actions; throw the spear, throw the hammer, or laugh/taunt. When he throws the hammer or taunts, teleport behind him and quickly uppercut him, then retreat again. When he throws the spear, teleport at the first possible instant and uppercut. If you are too slow, he will turn and attack. The best way to attack when he throws the spear is to teleport and jump over his head to dodge his attack, then deliver a drop kick followed immediately by the Electric Fly. Always retreat after each hit. Also, duck to dodge the spear instead of blocking, which will save you from losing health.
Shao Kahn in normal ladder hint: When fighting Shao Kahn in the normal ladder, defeat him easily by simply backing up continually. When he taunts or throws his spear, he is open for projectile attacks. Teleports are also useful. Be sure to retreat after each hit you land.
Challenge Tower level 300 hint: Select anyone and keep losing, just don’t pause and retry. Instead, select “Retry” when you lose. The difficulty will drop and you will start regenerating health between fights.

You can also hear it scurry around behind you.”Hide And Seek” achievement hint

This will also earn you the “Pit Master” achievement.: Win 5,000 coins for defeating him.”You Found Me!” achievement hint
Note: When fighting Shang Tsung in Arcade mode, get a double flawless victory and perform a fatality to have classic Jade challenge you in Goro’s Lair. This will earn you the “You Found Me!” achievement.: Win 5,000 coins for defeating her.”Brotherhood Of Shadow” achievement trophy hint
