    MK1 Tier List Discussion Thread

    It's usually 50% of one 50% of the other. Sometimes great players can make characters look better than they are. But it's also common that a character needs a great player to show people how effective the char really is. The truth is usually somewhere in the middle.

    The "Share/Follow MK1 Events" Thread

    I think it was this one: https://www.start.gg/tournament/hdgg-weekly-39-mk1/events And that's exactly why we need this thread! Because it's so hard to keep track of everything :confused: Here's HDGG, and maybe @Mr Aquaman can talk more about it.

    MK1 Tier List Discussion Thread

    Geras has been controversial for a while.. I remember on the podcast we did about the tier list, King Jr./Burrito Vorhees (who mains him) thought Geras was low-tier. A lot of others had him higher. What changed recently is the addition of the visual display for hourglass/sands of time charge...

    The "Share/Follow MK1 Events" Thread

    So one thing I've noticed is that it can be pretty hard to keep up with all the MK1 events going on. There are a lot of things happening every week, and it's easy to miss some of them. For now, I'm going to start this thread. If you see something interesting or you're watching a good event...

    LVL UP EXPO 2024 $5,000 MK1 Pot Bonus | April 26-28

    I just found out about it this week. The expo is also on the exact same dates as Texas Showdown, and EVO Japan, both of which have more promotion within the FGC, so that's probably part of the reason why.

    New Era Podcast

    Well, your claim was that the patch was a failure because it “shows no intention of deviating from this meta”. Yet the patch introduced a new character with a much different meta, gave buffs to two characters (Reptile and Rain) that give them additional options with very different choices than...

    Ermac Kombo Thread

    I guess we'll see how people deal with him. Imo, he feels like he's built to not need much help in neutral. Good footsie-range normals, good midrange space control, and mobility. In the hands of a good player his base kit should be highly effective.

    Ermac Kombo Thread

    I’m trying to figure out why people are calling 40-45% for 0 or 1 bars with 1 kameo low. That’s perfectly fine.
