Nightwing In Retirement
I never said mirrors make somebody better with a character.I want to take a trip down memory lane here and talk about something I have held for a while. I agree with post this to a large extent. The only thing I will add is that we all want to be considered the best with our character. All of us.
I was considered the best Nightwolf in MK9 until @Big D came along and got top 8. Big D used to watch my videos, ask me questions and talk to me about tech all the time. He wasn't the player we know him as now. He was a little unconfident and did not expect to go that far. Actually, the spotlight was on me to make top 8. I was a little cocky, and very confident aaaaaand I got beat first round by a random raiden player by a timeout win. Was I jealous of Big D? of course I was. It was supposed to be me in the top 8 with Nightwolf. I had lost the NW of America title and I couldn't take that away from him. I didn't scrutinize his path or down play CD jr. I simply shook his hand, told him he did great, and we have been friends ever since. What kind of person would I be if I told him "good job but CDjr isn't waffles." - a douche...thats what
I won't lie. I do want to outplace every other NW player even if we are at the same tourney. I don't want them to lose but I certainly want to out perform them. This is a single man sport. Like track and field or swimming. You race your team mates all the time but in the end you want the gold. This is why its so hard for me to just sit back and say "thank you" to NW players who say "good job but..." Its because I have been there and took the high road. Its because I have been around long enough to know that others are fully capable of taking away the "title" from me and if I don;t keep up and attend more tournaments I know it will happen.
-end rant. continue.
edit...NW of America is now @GGA Saucy Jack (Beat me 3-0 in NW mirrors) and by NW I mean Nightwolf not Nightwing...lol
Saucey Jack is considered NW of America based on the rules set forth by Sajam and Flipino Man. Mirrors are a complete meta test and should be considered weighed higher than all major tournament wins combined.
Me being a better player and better with the character make me better than you, but since this thread isn't about that I won't waste my time arguing.
