Dizzy, Slips and Han are the only ones playing tournament viable characters. I love watching GGA tournaments because you see wild ass matchups you would almost never see at majors - but there's a reason why you would never see those MUs. Watch their tournaments and tell me that shit would fly in brackets stacked full of Top 5 characters.

I love the GGA guys, but the #skillgap is real in this game. I don't think they have been grinding it out enough with their mid tiers to be taking it over guys like Rico, KDZ, and PL.


Whoa..

Bit uses CW
Wafflez uses GL
Jeremiah uses DD
PPJ uses Zat/HG
Soonk usss supes.


All tourney viable lol

You have no idea what you are talking about.

Slips made top 4 at a major with post-patch deathstroke.

As for the others:
Newbiesauce: Plays a crazy as hell Doomsday who is tournament viable along with 7364673647 characters
Pimpim: Plays a great HG and zatanna and has done consistently well at tournaments
16 bit: Aside from one or two really bad MUs his CW could destroy people
Max: Plays a mean as hell bane, and could wreck shit up
Jeremiah: He did well with SHEEVA. SHEEVA. He can wreck some shit with DD

I could list a bunch more of them but it would take forever so let me say this:

GGA is the only group who currently grinds stuff out and does not bitch. Mark my words, towards the end of this games life they will be the ones to beat. If you dont think that could happen just go look at MK9 tournaments.

What is going on guys, Ya Boi Zyphox here.
damn yo i got more votes than denzell, woundcowboy, forever king, and PL?? is this some sorcery? it sucks that i have people that believe in me but i can't go :( not only is it my Girlfriends birthday that weekend, but all of a sudden all the rides that i had to get there backed out as of now :'( we really need another major after TFC like in october or something, i have this tournament itch, and i really wanted to meet the terry brothers, cowboy and AK Pig Of The Hut and AK Smarrgasm, oh and Freepound aka AK Trepound380 but it will have to be another time :(

oh and my vote is on pretty boy rico suave, he is the best player right now IMO he understands this game more than anyone i have played against, and its not just black adam, its him.

You act like I just shit in your coffee.

I'm not counting them out. I'm not saying that they aren't good. I'm not even saying that they CAN'T win. I'm saying they are all playing mid tier characters that take a LOT of work to win with, and this is STILL a world of dictators.

No one doubts that they improved a lot as a team but wasn't Wafflez their only big major winner towards the end? Most of them went to NEC and Evo too and got beat out. Not for this to come out the wrong way though since I like a lot of them.

You listed Slips who IS using a low mid tier character.

Explain your foolishness.

That came off way more harsh than I wanted it too lol

I just wanted to hype up GGA. But I also wanted to make a point that while everyone else complains, they are grinding out the game two days a week and have experience with almost every MU. There is a reason they were so dominant in MK9, and it had nothing to do with the game itself.

Maybe. Again, I was just trying to hype them up lol.

I think 16 bit won a smaller major though. And I know dizzy had some wins too.

I'm assuming you bolded Slips name, questioning the relevance of Deathstroke in this game.

Deathstroke pre-patch was a one dimensional character, this worked for you because you are, by my understanding, a very one dimensional player. Just because Deathstroke doesn't work in your hands, doesn't mean others can't find success with him.

Aris didn't even practice this game after 1.04 and he still managed Top 16 at EVO.

Deathstroke is still relevant in tournaments and no matter how many threads you make, Slade is still out placing well.

It depends on your definition of 'big major towards the end'.
Dizzy won MK at UFGT
16Bit won Injustice at MWC

I am winning more with Zod, who is not a "one dimensional character", than I have ever one with post-patch Deathstroke, and I am fighting players like King, Playing 2 Win, Tom Brady, etc. How do you explain that?

REO placed second at Evolution 2011 using Mileena. Who cares what Aris placed when nobody knew how to fight Deathstroke?

Deathstroke is low mid tier. Same tier as Shazam.

I actually agree with NightwingDayZero, at least when it comes to me. I am happy with the progress I'm making with Catwoman but I'm not ready yet.

and. . .stop acting like you anything about DS, you are a pure zoning player and DS is not a zoning character
Zod is my main character, you fool. And he is not a "pure zoning character". The only pure zoning character in this game is arguably Cyborg.

This community needs to stop up playing Deathstroke. He is in Shazam's tier.

Chris G lost to b1 Rocket Power at EVO. Should DJT's win over Chris G be taken any less seriously because Chris didn't know how to fight GL?

Undeniably Zod's trait is helping you where I can only imagine you are far less capable with Deathstroke. Anywhere that isn't full screen. But let's not turn this into Zod vs. Deathstroke. You already have a thread for that.

Deathstroke is still placing in tournaments. Explain that.

Which tournaments? GGA's weekly low tier ones?

If Deathstroke is winning your local tournaments, your competition must suck or use low tier characters.

If the dictator, kryptonian, and water boy are present, Deathstroke is not winning shit just like 90% of the characters.
