Y’all can stop acting like Ed Boon was the one overreacting when young Brant over here just did his best 280 character or less impression of a baby running to his room kicking and screaming and crying about how he’ll never come out again after he got a light spanking from daddy.

Except instead of a spanking it was a polite request to please stop lolol.

You should have been around the MK9 days lol.

Mental coordination yes. You're not wrong. Video games improve your hand eye coordination, however the one big difference is in baseball you're also physically swinging/timing with your hand eye coordination. That's why it's kind of insane to see guys hit 95-100+mph fastballs 480-500 feet. Goalies too stopping pucks requires very fast hand eye coord. It's fun but there's no margin for error.
Yea now imagine having to react 5x in a row or die
 
Wow, this really surprises me. It's not every day that a CEO of a company publicly tells a person to basically "shut the fuck up," and it's especially uncharacteristic of what we've all seen of Boon. Not to mention, "who is the GOAT at whatever sport" is a pretty common topic of discussion.
 
This comment from boon was very odd; he seemed extremely dramatic and it makes him sound like a crybaby. Pigs question is EXTREMELY realistic and reasonable; he's asking publicly what myself and many others are thinking. Dragon keeps getting better and even when his characters get nerfed it seems not to phase him much, while sonic is losing a bit more than we are used to. Don't know why ed is being a little brat about a comment that is going to help the scene

Like i told someone:

Imagine a world where the Ceo of UFC told a boxer/promoter to STOP asking who is better on twitter McGregor or Mayweather.

Like really imagine that world......hard to because it would never exist.

Who cares? Ed should be allowed to respond however he wants and Pig can take it however he wants. If it was someone else who made that comment nobody would give a f.
You literally just answered your first question.

People care because it is Ed. Plain and simple.

Can't understand Boon's line of thought here to be honest... if this is like some really hard to detect troll comment... as in... "don't do this" with an exagerated dramatization really meaning "totally do this" but failing to deliver that it was sarcasm... IDK, it really is the only way I could understand this, it doesn't make any sense.

Is there any previous story of interactions or something (I've seen Boon retweeted about your interaction with Rick Fox IDK if it's related)? Has he been asked about this before? Did someone message him saying the poll was about stirring toxicity and he went there misinformed? There has to be a missing link, it's really out of character and if he was serious it's a terrible move against one of the guys that has worked the hardest for his community.

It doesn't make any sense that the CEO would go out of the way to post something like that...

Frankly, it's sad after no more @Pig Of The Hut in tournaments then no more Pig hyping the community, I think we all owe you and don't want to let that go, but if this is serious and not a misunderstanding (has he commented on it again after that?) then I understand that you wouldn't want to voluntarily (no profit) help developing his community if this is the response.


EDIT: Is it possible that he was replying to someone in the comments on that poll and everyone was tagged because the original poll had the names on it?

I don't understand one thing tho and maybe it's kinda mute but Ed also tagged 10 others in that tweet from what I can see. I also see @Pig Of The Hut saying his piece but what about the others that were tagged? I'm only asking this because I find it hard to believe that some poll or question would stir this shit up when it really doesn't matter because it's just an opinion. Silly ass argument is all.

The dude is also right to hype this game because it needs it. Ed and his DC plastic, slow moving characters need all the help & hype they can get.

I think the tag is because they were mentioned in the original tweet.
