About this converter
Mortal Kombat arcade bios fix most fighters between 173 and 216 cm. Ermac opens at 173, Sonya, Kitana and Mileena tie at 175, Liu Kang at 178, Kano and Johnny Cage tie at 183, Scorpion and Sub-Zero tie at 188, Jax at 193, Raiden at 195 in MK1 champion form, Baraka at 198 hunched, Shao Kahn at 216. That makes Shao Kahn 43 cm over Sonya and 28 cm over Scorpion. Every figure here is an official bio height with stance and heels left out of math.
How to use it
Pick two entries and a unit in the top row. The three boxes below stay linked. Change any box and the other two update. Try 1 Shao Kahn against Sonya Blades to see the emperor gap. Try Scorpion against Liu Kang for the ninja gap.
Heights shift by game. Raiden old arcade bio listed 7 ft 0 in, MK1 human champion form rows 195, and the note keeps both. Baraka fights hunched, rows pin full 198. Kitana, Mileena and Jade wear heels on screen, rows pin barefoot bio 175. Goro at 8 ft 2 in, Kintaro, Moloch and animal forms stay out to keep humanoid fighters in one ladder. No official MK11 height book exists, so arcade cards plus Deadly Alliance bios plus MK1 profiles form the base with Wiki pages that cite them.
