Hi! I'll simplify it just for you then. If a Scorpion player would have won major after major during the height of MK9 2012-2013 against the herd of Kung Lao, Kenshi, Sonya and Kabal users then that would be a player who would truly be worthy of recognition in having player skills. I think you understand now.
When not even the BEST of the BEST players were able to win with Scorpion, what does that tell you? It says, Winning in NRS games is nearly entirely based on certain characters chosen and of course some player skill to an extent.
