The ESL MKX Pro League Season 1 Finals Thread

YES Ermac!

Also... Ermac would lose a walkback race against any turtle...

 

[fobley]

Good match right between Big D and Madzin! Big D with a 2-1

 

[Nephrite]

Great anti-air by Big D vs Madzin in the final round, great match overall, both are fun to watch!

 

[ghostwriteous]

Are they really playing on xbox controllers ?

 

[PetulantWaste]

Am I the only one who think Pig got kinda lucky? His side of the bracket seemed much freer than the other. Reo v Sonic fox and the winner vs PL? That's bs. Doesn't Pig do a podcast for ESL or something anyway? Hmm.

He had to take on Foxy for his spot. That was not free.

Is that surprising or something? Not everyone plays on a stick or one of those pads with a different button layout. >_>

So facing F0xy grandpa is "lucky?" are you serious?????

 

[Vithar]

I think Tom Brady should take notes from Madzin.

Actually it is. Xbox controllers are not good for fighting games.

A. F0xy was one of the favorites to win the whole thing.
B. The seeding was based on ESL points from the tournaments. They were seeded based on merit and not who would make the best matches,

 

[Zephyrus]

Why is the lowtier, bad & trash Kitana (acording to Yomi) beating Top Players ?

because she isn't low tier. She has one of the best projectiles in the game, a ton of options and excellent damage.

Her problem before was that she was slow as fuck. Not only did NRS fixed that, they gave her a ton of unneeded buffs.
Give it time. Maybe people will finally realize she is a top 10 character.

 

[Eldriken]

Actually it is. Xbox controllers are not good for fighting games.

Maybe in your opinion, but others obviously don't share the same opinion.

 

[RM_NINfan101]

Yeah there was no luck, that's how the bracket was done: Points and seeding. Ironically, PL skipped tournaments just to get the seeding he wanted only to face his kryptonite.

Top 10?! LMFAO

These guys all play on Xbone every week so unless they use converters they shouldnt have any issues.

Also the xbone pads aren't that bad, I dont even own an Xbone but I have to play on the xbone controller every week for locals and I have no problems.

PL ignoring the old adage: "All water leads to the ocean."

Top 10?! LMFAO

ikr like maybe it's because sonic fox is pretty good idk...........

 

[Zephyrus]

Top 10?! LMFAO

oh my bad. I meant to say bottom 1 with every match up being a 0-10 against everyone.

Kitana needs more buffs after all. Can NRS remove her insta losing inputs? I'm sick of pressing a button and immediatly losing 100% of my health.

 

[Afk Skinny]

Xbone controller is not bad at all, they definitely improved from the 360 IMO

 

[The Infamous E]

As to Sonic Fox, people act like everyone didn't know the stakes of this tournament. He saw something in Kitana and pocketed it for this tourney, just like he's about to pocket $60k. It's all the people who have shown their cards prior to this tournament that have improperly prepared. The same thing will happen at EVO, maybe not with Fox himself, but others with surprise characters, or established pros in other games who have shown nothing to anyone trying to cash in on a quick $50k. Once these huge money tournaments run dry, there will be less surprises. I would expect especially someone like Pig to have a surprise character if he gets in a bind with Kenshi...

This totally done with seeding points. Sonic best seeded vs reo worst seeded. Don't try to create dumb drama and disrespect the other great players

 

[TheIrishFGCguy]

Never mind tournament wins, how many CHARACTERS does SonicFox have to dominate with before people start acknowledging that he has an incredible

No she's just not top 10.
