"EUROPE FALLS TO USA!" YOMI FOREVER KING/YOMI SALTFACE DEFEND THE USA IN MKX TCW

I can understand why this thread could come across as obnoxious. Especially since twitch viewers were already taking the rivalry too far... So yes, this thread is semi-trolling, but a lot of brainless fans were not. Hes the only British player there, so its about being sensible and welcoming. Banter comes later, as long as its done at appropriate times. However I understand both sides....

Considering how many times Korea and Japan annihilate America in Tekken, I have yet to see Korean Tekken fans vilify foreign players.

Lets stop pretending that if Foxy won TCW that everyone would be going apeshit about how "Europe can compete" and "Europe is the best." Stop being hypocritical. People wanted rivalries back and this was one of them. And now that we are talking about it, people get butthurt when things don't go their way. Foxy is a good player ... no one is denying that. But with the amount of shit talk that happened after Nivek LOST to Foxy about how he was the best Raiden, I'm surprised there wasn't more blowback. Sorry Foxy you lost this time around, prove yourself at Evo. I know the 9th place struggle, it fucking sucks.

I'm not allowed to lose ever, not even in my own country.

I wasn't the one who said anything about usa and eu beforehand.
Part of the reason this happens is that people from the EU spent 3 years telling the USA that the only reason people were able to beat you at EVO 2012 is that you fell and hit your head. That we just didn't know, and that whenever guys came back, we'd find out.

That means that people have been waiting 3 years to get proper credit for simply having good players, instead of being devalued due to injury excuse.

Then more recently, people had to hear that the US was 'defeated' at the fan exhibition due to the fan-picked favorites not being able to win. So that was adding insult to 'injury' ;) The stream chat was full of it, and it made its way to the forums as well. After Dizzy won Combo Breaker, it was said here that he wasn't playing the character at the highest level.

While it's highly unfortunate that you weren't in great shape at EVO, and I'm glad you made it through ok, 3 years is a long time to wait for validation. After hearing every reason in the book, it's fair that people should be able to throw at a bit of salt water back across the ocean now that we've seen the best players here are indeed as good as they claim to be.

At the end of the day, no one wants you to do badly -- but it's a competitive game and people will return competitive smack talk to others who talk smack on your behalf when given the chance.

But apparently 1 representative of another country vs 150+ of another is a good showing in the eyes of some American players.

I've been nothing but cool to all of the U.S. players while I've been here...

So have your gigantic victory, and celebrate it in true unsportsmanlike fashion, as you always do.

No matter what happens, I've still won £11.3k, which is 11.3k more than most of you lol....
Take it as a compliment mate, you beating them has obviously put a dent in their egos, whether they want to admit it or not.

If they're hating on you then they are leaving some1 else alone. Enjoy.

and it totally gives you guys the reason to shout your xenophobic... pardon me, patriotic chants because one guy lost in a tournament where he had 150+ americans gunning for him.

all in good fun, right? No obvious agenda behind it as you so cleverly hid it from us with that post.

@A F0xy Grampa work on your tempst Lao. If you blow up people with Buzzsaw, I can't wait to see how you'll do with tempest.

I don't actually play these games
Nationalism is an ideology I'm not a big fan on but it doesn't help not wanting to foster that attitude when you make front page articles of "x country falls to y" sensationalism click bait. Which no is not foxy's fault at all.

But good shit foxy. I'm not a fan of communism but I'll give your king lao props.

not what I'm reading with crimson shadow post but whatever.

I come to this site to have fun and learn something related to a game I like. Not to deal with nationalism bullshit wherever it may come from. Keep that shit to yourself. Just like I have to moderate myself when talking to certain users, I ask that you refrain from doing threads like this. It's uncomfortable as fuck to me and possibly others.
