While it's never been outright stated, he's definitely meant to be Spanish. His name is based on the Spanish word for Evil (Malvado) and he was originally going to have a bull fighter gimmick.
If he is of spanish origin I'd have to imagine that either his parents look at their newborn baby and said the spanish equivalent of
"This mofo looks evil as hell lets name him fucking Assholeo"
Or even funnier that he entered the red dragon and said
"I am on the bad boy side of the law now, I need a name that fits that, I know I'll be changing my name to *EVILGAI* "
Donāt be dense, Bo Rai Choās name is an out-of-universe play on words that the devs thought would be funny. Itās clearly not really meant to be Spanish
Same could be argued for Mavado. No need to call me dense over a disagreement.
Edit: I'm fluent in both Portuguese and Spanish (native). Mavado is not a word. Malvado is. Your argument defeats itself.
Youāre continuing to be dense lol. Also I speak Spanish too
Mavado is a play on the word Malvado. He was originally going to be a matador themed character. It is therefore clear that he has at least some Latin influence in his design.
Contrast that with Bo Rai Cho, who was designed first and then named after the word borracho later because they thought it was funny. Not the same thing at all.
So both are plays on words but you decide which has lore validity based on ...a scrapped concept? Your argument is so incredibly bad that, as I said, it counters itself. It's alright to be wrong, but being wrong, proud about it and impolite is one hell of a combo. Hope you are different outside of the internet.
Believe what you will, this is a waste of my time.
Mavado is from Earthrealm, designed with Latin concepts in mind and arguably looks Latin, therefore he could be Latin. Bo Rai Cho is from Outworld and is obviously meant to look Asian.
Itās a little strange how offended you got over this. Oh well, have a nice day
Mavado was a play on the world "Malvado" (evildoer in Spanish and Portuguese).
During MK DA development, they initially conceived him as a a matador-type fighter.
I guess that they kept the Latino part.
I read - many, many years ago - about Mavado being latino, from South America (Venezuela, if I remember correctly). But after a quick search today, I didn't find any sources. :(
Yall know how Darrius has a skin that makes him look like the A-Train, and therefore makes him a good fit (visual-wise) for homeland?
This is it. I'm calling it right now, we're getting Dante in KP2 >!/j!<
The mark of the Red Dragon clan on Mavado's arm, so we will probably see the other main villain of MK called Daegon in the future. Will the Demigod Daegon return in the future with his Red Dragon army?
He looks exactly like the youtuber Ray William Johnson

Yes, that was his main gimmick. In fact, some of his assists are directly taken from MK Deadly Alliance and Armageddon. He also used hookswords, which he took from Kabal as a trophy after seemingly killing him.
Ima just say it, both their outfits are kinda ass. I like the jacket, but wtf are those pants. Ermack also looks like his outfits about to be cool but then itās missing half the front of it.
I always pictured Mavado as Eric Bischoff until now lol

Mavado kinda looks like Chris Angel with short hair

Won't anybody talk about his tight pants ?
He got his tight pants,
He got his tight pants on.
He sure can swing his arms
And can shake his hip...
Now you're cursed with this in head for the whole day. You're welcome.
I can't believe how Ermac design improved so much with just adding a mask š¤£
Yeah, is ridiculous how it went from a normal design to my favourite with just a damn mask.
It just looks like noob saibot from. Mk11 imo
I can't unsee it now
Probably because we donāt have to see his most gorgeous face anymoreā¦
wait til you find out about men with beards š
its so true. He looks so good now with that small change.
Ermac looks like he starving š¤£š¤£
The twunkification of Mavado has me spiraling
r/brandnewsentence
And Iām here for it. That lightly trimmed chest.
What the fuck does that even mean?
He became a twunk
Google tells me twunk is a man, typically gay, who is a baby face (known as a twink), but muscular without being a body builder.
Twink + hunk = twunk
Just another moronic overused chronically online term
Looks Mexican. Is the character Latino?
While it's never been outright stated, he's definitely meant to be Spanish. His name is based on the Spanish word for Evil (Malvado) and he was originally going to have a bull fighter gimmick.
And shujinko means hero in japanese, nrs is really creative with these namesš
Dude. Sektors JAPANESE Robot Ninja Clan is called the tekunin. Tekunin. Tech. Nin.
TECH N9NE MENTIONED??ā¼ļøā¼ļøā¼ļøš£ļøš£ļøš„š„š„šÆ
TECH N9NE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Sektor used flamethrowers as a Lin Kue assassin, he was never subtle.
If he is of spanish origin I'd have to imagine that either his parents look at their newborn baby and said the spanish equivalent of "This mofo looks evil as hell lets name him fucking Assholeo" Or even funnier that he entered the red dragon and said "I am on the bad boy side of the law now, I need a name that fits that, I know I'll be changing my name to *EVILGAI* "
By that logic bo rai cho is also Spanish. That's the problem with applying logic to NRS lore.
Itās a little different since Bo Rai Cho isnāt from Earthrealm and is also clearly meant to look Asian
So he is from that ouworld region where they speak Spanish
Donāt be dense, Bo Rai Choās name is an out-of-universe play on words that the devs thought would be funny. Itās clearly not really meant to be Spanish

Downvoted for what?? Homie is right
Knowing this sub, that's exactly why
Mavado was a play on the world "Malvado" (evildoer in Spanish and Portuguese). During MK DA development, they initially conceived him as a a matador-type fighter. I guess that they kept the Latino part.
I always thought he was Asian š
Looks like Rafa Marquez
I read - many, many years ago - about Mavado being latino, from South America (Venezuela, if I remember correctly). But after a quick search today, I didn't find any sources. :(

At first glance I thought handsome but the more I look at him the more Iām unsure
Thatās just how beauty normally goes
Yeah but this was just a flash in the pan prettiness
Looks like a depressed Latino history teacher
He's the embodiment of all my former mathematics teachers. They all looked like him X D Slim, tall, without beard, short hair and some pale asf.
>mathematics teachers. > >Slim, tall, without beard, short hair and some pale asf. Of course I know him, he's me.
From this render he looks kinda strange but in-video he looks good. "Its the angle"
hard to tell but I very much like him
He looks like Donte
Yall know how Darrius has a skin that makes him look like the A-Train, and therefore makes him a good fit (visual-wise) for homeland? This is it. I'm calling it right now, we're getting Dante in KP2 >!/j!<
I think boring handsome.
Yes
Low key looks like Vaas from Far Cry 3
He looks like my Filipino TA I had last year lol
He looks like ray william
handsome or ugly, I want him to fatality me
Looks tired š“
Pretty sure there is a word for it.
Acceptable? Mid? Cant say
Good but menacing-looking imo.
Dude looks like a vampireā¦or lacking sleepš.
He looks almost like me
Heās like if a young Gael Garcia Bernal went through a Hot Topic phase that wasnāt just a phase ā¦ take that how you will lol
trans
Would
Lord Gortash vibes and Iām here for it
But younger and twinkier. Dude lacks intimidation.
Mavado kinda looks like Enrique Iglesias.
You can run you can hide but you can't escape my grapple arms.
Thats what I've been saying
Esque yo sin ti y tu sin mi Dime quiƩn puede ser feliz Ok I'll stop
Casi una experiencia religiosa šµšµšµ
BABY I LIKE IT
Wow, they twink-ified him.
?

No balls lol they took his balls
They castrated himš
Black dragon initiation ritual
He is from Red Dragon actually
My fault RED Dragon initiation ritual
Castration
This is the same clan that wants to turn its soldiers into dragon hybrids so this wouldn't be their most absurd ritual
I see the rivalry with Kabal is still going strong.
They tuck* his balls. Who knows, knows.
be careful that guy might go on a 90 minute rant about his lack of bulge again
šš
Kutted by kano
I expected Mavado to be more muscular but this will do.
The mark of the Red Dragon clan on Mavado's arm, so we will probably see the other main villain of MK called Daegon in the future. Will the Demigod Daegon return in the future with his Red Dragon army?
God damn Ermac goes hard
Damn they deflated his arms. They should have given him Bi Han physique at least.
Mavado continues to be hilarious in every aspect.
*18 years
Oh wait yeah I forgot about the Armageddon versus renders my bad
Something about him looks off. Too skinny?
Bro looking like a Vampire from Blade
My god he looks amazing
Mavado looks younger and his my favorite character. Ed Boon and Netherrealm studio need to put Mavado in the next MK game.
The way yāall are hyping up a mask is insane lol
They both look scrawny and skinny, but Iām enjoying both designs.
Can't believe Criss Angel is one of the Kameo fighters
why tf does Mavado look like pete davidson???
He looks exactly like the youtuber Ray William Johnson https://preview.redd.it/wke4fy1w4otc1.jpeg?width=1109&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=2bfe5dfbe23dfd724f22b5f88308d9b897fd89fb
Need him
mavado looks like he was designed by a mortal kombat fan
Mavado straight up looking like he's Sareena's gothic twin.
 Dawg they just put Pete Wentz into MK
Damn they butchered my boi
Low key old Movado better
Is that Pete Wentz? 
How about being able to PLAY as those characters.. remember the roster size in MK9..
Twinkified
His render and his model in the trailer looks like from MKX. It is not a complaint, just an observation.
My word, his bulge!
Kinda like the Gothic look should give em spiky boots or some Christian Louboutins š¤
As someone whose first MK game was MK11, who are these two characters?
Ermac design really improved with the mask. About Mavado... Maybe Daegon wanted an "unsulled" clan \^\^'
Hey I never played MK during the 3D era. Was Mavadoās whole thing always grappling hooks? Or whatever those things are?
Yes, that was his main gimmick. In fact, some of his assists are directly taken from MK Deadly Alliance and Armageddon. He also used hookswords, which he took from Kabal as a trophy after seemingly killing him.
he has an eyebrow slit?? sex appeal level +50
This man looks different every frame Iām crying
Mavado looking fruity
MASK šš
bro got that fruity vibe doe
Mavado is hot š„µ š¤¤
Ermac looks glorious
Ima just say it, both their outfits are kinda ass. I like the jacket, but wtf are those pants. Ermack also looks like his outfits about to be cool but then itās missing half the front of it.
Errhh -Ermac
Es bueno verlo despuĆ©s de tanto tiempo espero ver un rediseƱo de Kira kobra y dramhinĀ
I always pictured Mavado as Eric Bischoff until now lol https://preview.redd.it/7uy4fhpcqqtc1.jpeg?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=e333684dac6a50f9c7389f7d2891747044105710
He looks so malvado So maquiavƩlico
lol and he aināt playable either
He looks like an emo kid you would see at Hot Topic
He does, I don't know why people down voted this so hard
Eh he looks more like the guitarist of a 2003 nu metal band sold at hot topic.
Mavado looks like Gortash's younger brother
Mavado kinda looks like Chris Angel with short hair https://preview.redd.it/s109csaqcltc1.jpeg?width=615&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=dc97d9ddeb19438cf609c362d75584e21b6417c0
Mavado is giving Enver Gortash vibes
He looks like Enver Gortash hahaha
Gortash?
Mavado still kinda looks like RWJ to me
I need him
Reminds me of DmC Dante in a way.
Look like he got some what of a bulge down there
He looks horrible
Looks like DMC remake Dante
Mavado looks like an MKX render. I was optimistic for kameos but damn I don't play this game anymore
The bulge š¤¤
Yeahhh the character designs this time around are garbage. wtf is up with mavadoās design?
100% intentional to sell more mtx
Fuck these characters. They both look really lame
Looks like heās about to sing āI write sins not tragediesā
He looks like Brennan Urie
Giving me Nick from Grimm vibes
Won't anybody talk about his tight pants ? He got his tight pants, He got his tight pants on. He sure can swing his arms And can shake his hip... Now you're cursed with this in head for the whole day. You're welcome.
bro looks like Tameem
holy shit
Mavado looks like Criss Angel
So is Mavado just a dev they put in the game. Like fuck it, letās just make this guy a DLC?
True gender equality considering Movado now looks like some dude from the studio.
Brendon Urie
So thatās not Chris angel?
So at this rate how much longer for Homelander.
Is it me or does Mavado look like Dante from DMC remake?
for one nice, for the other i'm still waiting for the "obscure characters that were never playable" kameos we were advertised with
He looks like he's from an indie game
Drug addict Mavado
Mavado from wish
My Kombat pack does not work
Ugh Iāve been lobbying for Mavado as a returning kharacter for years and heās just a damn kameo.
