Uh... well, I'd have to give this to Akuma. He's much faster, and speed is everything. You factor in his much more diverse attacks and all, and that's a winning combo. Shao Kahn is far too arrogant and cocky to truly fear anyone, and that's good up to a point. But Akuma is quite a worthy opponent and when Shao Kahn underestimates him, that'll be his fatal mistake.
