    Tom Brady: "Winning in fighting games was more difficult in the 90s".

    The logic that tournaments have more players therefore they're harder doesn't follow unless you can prove that in the pool of added players, a non-trivial amount of them were of the quality that matters. Anyway the glaring flaw that I see in Tom's thought process is that he assumes the type of...

    Having trouble playing footsie with Jax. How do you attack people who back up constantly and premptively press d4/jump to halt or evade your attacks?

    Mix your approach up. You say the opponent is using d4 to beat your dash ins, then go for a jump kick or play footsies by walking right outside your opponent's d4 range to bait him into using it and then preemptively go with a ground pound as a whiff punish. The opponent can't deal with all...

    Jax General Discussion

    Just watched Tyrant's Jax play from the summit(Jax vs Cassie and Jade). And the results of his play is bolstering some of my early assumptions I expressed about Jax on page 5. Though i'm not sure to the degree since its still early, but it does really seem that chars that can zone Jax and also...

    Jax General Discussion

    I run hunker down and I'm lost at what to do against players who just walk back and toss projectiles/throw out half screen advancing strings all day. These strings stretch and advance forward faster than I can walk back, hunting for whiffs to get them off their footsies is just not doing...

    Question What makes MK9 stand out?

    Umm, that census is not entirely accurate. CDjr was below PL&REO in terms of achievements, and I would argue DJT was over CDjr as well. However, I think at CDjr's peak he was the best player in the game by far and that he really changed the meta with how he blew up pokes(I would have also given...

    Mortal Kombat 9 Trilogy Edition Mod Discussion (CURRENTLY ON VERSION 2.50)

    f413 being - 5 on block and OH not even being able to get at least 1 rep of his reset(?) really kills his corner game all together.

    Question What makes MK9 stand out?

    Ha, I just wanted wound to clarify who he was referring to specifically because I plan to quote his statement in Tom's stream to get his reaction.

    Question What makes MK9 stand out?

    Just a quick question, if you don't mind, when you say "MK9 ogs" are you using that term sarcastically to refer to ppl like Mikemetroid and xKhaoTik, or are you referring to the real MK9 ogs like PL, REO, Pig, and Tom who have recently criticized MKX's meta and balance during Pig's...

    Question What makes MK9 stand out?

    I can see that in some ways, but at the same time, I have seen quite a few accomplished fighting game players like PL, REO, and etc state that MKX is more similar to Injustice than MK9, and I think there is merit to that claim.

    Question What makes MK9 stand out?

    I wonder why injustice never gets compared and contrasted with MKX? Actually, when I think about it, prior to injustice 2 getting announced, I swear that game rarely ever got mentioned in any of the multiple threads made criticizing MKX. I kinda want to see the MKX shills attack injustice for...

    Question What makes MK9 stand out?

    A lot of top players really enjoyed MKvsDC. @YOMI REO for example explained in his stream yesterday that he actually prefers the Meta in MKvsDC over the one in MKX.

    Discussion MK9/MKX...Which Game Had The Best Version of a Character?

    Lowkey preferred mk9 jax over mkx. Okay, so MKX has better attacks for controlling space/approaching, but what about spacing? Movement and moves is part of the mind game behind footsies.

    Why does Sonic Fox win everything?

    He has an extremely high IQ, obviously.

    Why do we let EVO treat us like this?

    Also, why is 2/3 being painted as some great wrong? The outcome of the tournament looked as consistent as any 3/5 tournament that I saw for MKX. It seems like someone is salty about missing top 8 I see.

    Why do we let EVO treat us like this?

    Because I believe Foxy is petty enough for bias to be base of his rational. Just my read on Foxy character tbh. Maybe game knowledge is the sole determinant for you, but it's not for me. I consider a set of variables when it comes to determining what is good commentary or not, and based on my...
