If MK9 had a documentary like The Smash Bros.....

Was talking to @piemaster about the Smash Bros. Documentary and who would be the 7 gods of MK9 if a documentary was made about our scene like the Smash scene. If you haven't watched the Smash Bros. documentary, it's pretty much an overview of the evolution of the game, it's community, and an inside look at the 7 best players to play the game during it's lifespan. I talked it over with @Medina4life at lunch and this is what we determined would be the '7 gods of MK9' if such a documentary was made for us. Do you agree? Disagree?

Perfect Legend - 2x Evo winner and top 8 at Evo 2013. Top 8 at MLG Anaheim and Raleigh. Funny. Beyond egotistical. And partially insane. A lock.

REO - 2x top 8 Evo placer. 3x MLG winner. Smart and logical player. Sarcastically funny. Huge troll. A lock.

CD Jr - 2x MLG winner, 2x MLG top 8, 2012 Evo top 8 placer. First dominant force in MK9. Super opinionated. Super loud. Super arrogant. A lock.

DJT - Evo 2013 winner and Evo 2011 top 8 placer. 2x MLG top 8 placer. Relatively quiet, maybe the "Azen" of our community in relation to the Smash scene. Does the Bernie dance. Some of the most amazing patience to watch. A lock.

Detroit Ballin - 2011 NEC winner, MLG winner, MLG top 8 placer, and Evo 2013 top 8 placer. Relatively quiet as well. Just kind of a cool guy who's easy to get along with. A lock.

Pig of the Hut - 3x MLG top 8 placer, winner of MLG Summer Area, 2012 Evo top 8 placer. Very passionate and hard-working player. Super consistent. An inspiration and example of what it takes to become one of the best. Few would argue he would not belong.

16 Bit - 2x Evo top 8 placer, SCR 2011 winner, 3x top 8 MLG placer. Also very consistent. One of the biggest personalities in the scene. Most charismatic. Most dramatic. Best pop-offs. Some would argue Dizzy or Tyrant should take the 7th spot, but consistency should be rewarded and theatrics tips the scales in his favor.

its a great pick...but as a SoCal person I'm obvi biased there isnt a California person. But objectively speaking all major regions are covered so it does seem like a good list.

Obviously, there would have to be an Epilogue with Tom Brady reminding everyone that he played Sub Zero and asking why no one will play him for more than 10, 15, 20 games in one session.

Tom would be like Wife is in the Smash documentary, where he's not a God but he's referred to often due to being still a very talented player as well as knowledgeable and well spoken

I'd agree with this list, even if someone argued Tyrant, Wound, or myself, we didnt really have any feuds with anyone and were not very outspoken (except mid-2013 Wound ;)) so I don't think focusing on us would make sense, it'd just be like "Oh, this person placed here" and thats it. Unlike someone like 16 bit or Pig you can show footage of them going apeshit and it'd be awesome

I'd even possibly argue the list to be smaller so they can focus on the feuds more, as there isnt much to mention about Detroit and DJT except their placings (Detroit at NEC was a good storyline though)

if we want feuds, why am I not down? :p, i'm the one who probably was the biggest mouth of the west coast before MLG Anaheim happened, I argued with so many ppl and etc., I loved those times :). But the list made in the OP is excellent indeed.

What is going on guys, Ya Boi Zyphox here.
i think brady should be in there instead of Detroit only because Detriot ballin never lived up to his CORN up bringing and there was never drama involved with him lol. the brady "am coming" video and the, "you're going to jaaaaaaaaaail now" are the epitome of MK9 days man.
