Mk9, Injustice, and MKX

- Tyrant: Speed, unpredictability, comeback factor, use of mixups and staggers (MK9)
- Dizzy: Engine knowledge, prediction, consideration of options, use of armor, wakeup game, footsies+movement, punishing, and patience (MK9 and MKX)
- Sonic Fox: Speed, unpredictability, fearlessness, reads (MK9/Injustice) Whiff punishing, mid-match/set adaptation, understanding of risk/reward (Injustice and MKX), General Fundamentals (MKX), extremely quick absorption of new information, ability to spot brokenness, execution, tech discovery and creativity (All 3 games)
