Player 1 has host advantage

It was like this in smash bros brawl as well. Top players would fight over the first controller slot due to trade situations favoring them.

It is probably MK specific because most other fighters (from what I understand) have trades. As in, when two attacks become active on the same frame, both players take the hit. In MK9 only one player takes the hit.
I doubt there's anyway they could patch trades in?

LOL. Explains why I've been losing every JIP trade as player 2. Fucking NRS, god damn. Guess we're going to be fighting over the player 1 slot now. Awesome.

Rock, paper, scissor or coin toss? I guess we'll have a judge flip a coin. Only way to make it 'fair'.
 
lol. I think if I were somberness and I found this I would have just not said anything. Now everytime I get beat out of something I'm going to be salty.

I don't blame him for posting it, just saying that this can really have an astronomical effect on the game.
 
you had Player 1 and Kung Lao vs CD jr ...

I mean Ive seen majors won by players on the player 2 side... If this can be fixed that would be great otherwise this is far from a deal breaker imo.
Ok so what? I was just saying Check told me about this like almost a year ago has nothing to do with anything. Smh of course you are just hunting for something to start some shit over.

I hope NRS addresses this, as many have said, this is no small matter.
