CR|Sonic Fox Wins ESL's Mortal Kombat Fatal 8 Exhibition!

[TackyHaddock]

interesting we didn't see any female characters. will fox stick with Erron or move on to one of the ladies?

 

[tjcombowins]

Oh my god sonicfox is so bad. All he does is use an overpowered character and doesn't even play footsies. Man batgirl is so broken wait until mk x comes out so he can't win this garbage game injustice any more and he'll know what real footsies are.

Oh wait this isn't injustice, hold on. Did sonicfox just demolish everyone in the game where you will need footsies to win. Hmmmm... Fuck all you idiots saying it was all batgirl, all i saw today was sonic outplaying the fuck out of everybody. You fools were all wrong, kids godlike

Erron blacks looks to be top tier, lets not get crazy. Yes sonicfox is beast.

 

[G4S Claude VonStroke]

Are people just trying to create fake story lines? Please name the people who actually said sonic fox is a bad fighting game player? He was great at mk9 great at injustice and will probably be great at this too. If you played against him in mk9 especially the last couple of years you would know how good he is.

Stop making up shit please

 

[tjcombowins]

I thought Sonicfox would be rocking Mileena or Cassie. That Erron Black was godlike.

He went with someone he thinks is top tier, seems he was right.

 

[Lulzlou]

Ok, while I think Scorpion is SLIGHTLY less powerful as I thought, I still think he's crazy powerful.

Inferno Scorpion just got destroyed but look who did it, one of the best players in the world.
I'm not going to sit here and act like I'm awesome at fighting games because I'm NOT. I'm slightly above average if that. I'd get demolished in a tournament.

I didn't explain my original comment enough. Let me do that now. In a competition with expert players, he probably isn't OP. But look at all of the people that aren't experts and that play online. Do you really believe that the average player will know whats plus on block or what's punishable and what isn't?

If you are going by the average player then they at least know a little bit about the game. All the information is there in the movelist. This isn't MK9 where the community had to make the Frame data. Even if they don't understand frame data 100%, they should at least know that negative frames mean they are at some sort of disadvantage.

The average online player in MKX should be better than what MK9 had simply because of the information available.

He really is shaping up to be the new Kabal.

Stop right there sir. Kabal was on a completely different level. Plus it was not like anyone could pick him up and be a tournament winner.

 

[REDRUM]

and the testers told me that leaving nrs after testing that ERRON BLACK was looking like bottom tier currently lol

 

[Desperdicio]

Sonic Fox played it smart and aggressive. Of course, if you nerf the character he uses, you ban him of the community, and maybe you get to win afterwards. But that's just the cowards's way.

 

[WakeUp DP]

"Counter picking specialist"

-picks the same character after getting bodied.

He only had 2 days of practice....

Also who the hell are you? Never seen you in any top8.

 

[Voodoo]

I cringe everytime SonicFox speaks.

 

[REDRUM]

Quan is sooooo fucking slow, wow.

big hitbox and not much on wakeup

 

[REDRUM]

congrats sonicfox

east coast will destroy in this game.. nobody beating this guy

I think alot of people will pick up Erron and win alot because he seems top tier with great safe tools and great 50/50s. Sonic may be the best with him when it's all said and done.

 

[Gooch Peencher]

big hitbox and not much on wakeup

I think that was his problem, kinda felt like he had no wakeup options

 

[Predannok]

im i the only one thats is botherd with the amont of pressure u get as soon as u land on ur ass? wake ups not having invicibilities, except when meterburned really flipped the coin in all matches, Sonicfox was the only one who really abused the knockdown game with the 50/50+command grab :/.

 

[Poseidon's Wrath]

You're on a website for competitive mk... We really don't care about the average player here lol, so what is your point?

There isn't a single thing in the rules that says this website is only for "competitive players" so you're wrong off the bat. Secondly, if you don't like what I said, why not ignore it instead of replying to me and trying to incite an argument?

 

[ShArp]

1) Make sure ur opponent is in the corner.
2) Grab, pew pew pew - win.
Grab, pew pew pew.... Pew pew - win.
Pew pew, Grab, Pew PewPEw, Grab, PEW PeW pEW pEw - win.

Semis where shitload of times more interesting than "corner grab pew pew's" till 5-0.

 

[AdrianDaTruth]

• Footsies
• Corner Pressure
• Great Command Grab Cancels
• Mixups
• Meter Conservation
• Adjustment/Adaptation
• Reactions
• This is why Sonic Fox won!
• Kids a natural!

 

[A F0xy Grampa]

True but I doubt in two days they are realizing that their backdash is invincible. 2 days of practice won't allow any type of movement to be learned.

Disagree, thats something thats been discussed already in videos and on the forums. Give it time.

No. I expect them to LEARN.

 

[Predannok]

it really reminded me of lobos 33/33/33 game with the advantage of forcing them to guess or waste a bar of meter, which really nobody did for some reasons -.-

 

[errormacro7]

He went with someone he thinks is top tier, seems he was right.

That's what I felt when I first saw Erron's gameplay. I feel the same way about Mileena, Kenshi and Jacqui.
Jacqui must be a beast in this game, her variations make her look powerful.

 

[Montanx]

Funny that after 2 days and the game not even being out yet that Sonicfox is already better than 99% of the playerbase will EVER be! Think about that!

 

[Briggs8417]

Erron black lookin hella good. @.@

 

[A F0xy Grampa]

I didn't ask you to like it nor understand it, that's your problem. I see something being done about it in the future. The damn guy does 40% off of one freaking hit to start a combo. If it turns out that nothing is done about, I just won't play online. I hate having to counter pick just to give myself a slightly better chance against a character like that. Scorpion was nowhere near this powerful in MK9. He really is shaping up to be the new Kabal.

Everything you said is right

Ban/Nerf Scorpion 2k15!

 

[Predannok]

oh lets not forget HE HAS FRIKING ARMOR on the command grab and on his sand grenade
