Lt. Boxy Angelman

I WILL EAT THIS GAME
Me. Myself and my team.

You ever see Braveheart?
Remember Simon? The mad man who owned Ireland?
Same rules apply.
New York will be MY city. My Gotham. My renaissance.
And the rest will fall into place.

Also: I hereby issue a challenge to you, Reo, AND Tom Brady.
A challenge to a bout of Injustice 2, and more specifically, to a three-way dance.
A fights B, winner fights C, goes in circles 'til someone wins seven games.
Whatever show the three of us happen to all be at. We'll figure it out.
But at some point, in 2017, the three of us should beat the unholy superhero shit out of each other.
Brady is Shane Douglas, Reo is Terry Funk, and I'm Sabu.
We'll have our own Night The Line Was Crossed.

2017 will be hype as fucking hype can be, even if I have to set it on fire my damn self.

I'm most excited for the newcomers and who is going to surprise us this time, but I expect people from all three of the previous games to do work, not everyone, but I expect a wide array of the Betty Crocker mix crew.

Pretty sure it will be MKx era and NEW players....

Lets face it... competitive fighting games is a young boys game. "old man reflexes" as Mr Aquaman calls them is a legit thing... Kids like Dragon will mawp.


Also even dynamite players like Fox will have to face reality of playing less to go to university and work on a career. Marriage, kids, work, life gets in the way.. At this stage the money in FGC eSports just can not support full time players (yes there are a few exceptions).

So in addition to players getting a little slower on the trigger as they age, they also just can not put in as much time. This means that the young kids from MKx and new players will shine in IJ2.

Also I read a interesting post by Silvereyes recently (I forget if that is spelt correctly) but for the 1st time ever NRS games have decent netcode. This will bring in a host of new players that never had the chance to really practice with high level players in a meaningful way. That and the host of online events (I expect a ESL and StremMe cups for example) will mean they will get a shot at those top tier players.. This will probably lead to a host of new young blood coming to the off lines.

I might not be a top player in Injustice 2 but dammit my Swamp Thing will at least be known of.
Yeah... I think the best the old guard can hope for is to be a lab monster who finds technology for everyone, maybe running a fun stream ass kicking noobs like Max dose.

Terrible times breed terrible things, my lord.
I hope it's new players and a mix of all players from all eras. New blood means more compition and better hype.

Still hoping mkxl will be around too.

It's not really a young man's game. Aren't Infiltration and Tokido in their 30s?

Sylverrye is 26. I'm not sure how old Hayatei is but he certainly isn't 15 or 17. People are just more hungry when it's their first go around I think.

Retired forever; don’t ask for games.
Players from all eras most likely.

I mean, it has happened before, and it will happen again.

Thing is, I wouldn't choose any of these groups. My group would be called:

Z. Players who were good in Injustice and are still good at MKX + MKX top players

That would be people like Sonic, Scar, Foxy, DJT, Forever King, etc. with the addition of Dragon, Raptor etc. Also 2 new people will move from the MKX "I'm placing but not completely top" club into the true group of absolute top players.

Basically Injustice 1 is the cutoff point. But if you were just good at Injustice 1, and not MKX, you're probably going to get mopped by the new crop.
