These top 8 matches reminded me of 2 things: how unreachably godlike this game's best players are and how fantastic of a game MKX is despite some of its problems. Dragon and Slayer in particular were blowing my mind. As they were enacting their reads I could really follow the logic they were using in their heads on the spot to make them.

Dude. Nerf Kitana. Did you see how many overheads into lows slayer ate? Or low into low, low low into pverhead, etc. No wonder Kitana is S-tier. She'd be fine if noone jumped and only had to block low...

[Goat-City]

Oh yeah, in that recent YOMI tier list thread posted by REO they listed Kitana as A tier. Not S, not A+, but A... either they just wanted to complement sonicfox's skills or they just got embarassed. Kitana S+ tier in the next yomi tier list confirmed.

Did sonicfox only use Kitana the whole tournament? or at least for his streamed matches? I'll be watching this archive after finals.

 

[MasonBc]

This is hilarious lol

 

[IrishMantis]

Sonic Fox winning was no surprise as he deserves it

But everything else was, I can bet my Mother that nobody could of predicted that top 8 and then the turns the top 8 took

 

[nathancorsini]

Where can i watch it?

 

[STB Shujinkydink]

Stream monsters were so harsh this weekend lol I'm glad players are playing and not reading that.

Good job to fox and homie slayer

 

[Awkward Sloth]

Does this mean Tanya finally won a major even though Sonic used solely used Kitana in top 8?

@Protagonist_1 Would you mind doing a "Neutral @ NEC" Thread? I keep seeing posts about someone's amazing AA or neutral game or poking Etc. And your neutral threads are always good to see.

 

[Mr Aquaman]

What an amazing tournament! Had a phenomenal time!

Shout out to the homie Yomi Slayer. Keep your head up man, hell of an accomplishment at a stacked tourney like this one. Nothing but props!!

 

[Perdition]

Before this tournament I saw a lot of people trying to say Foxy is better or as good as Sonic Fox. Lol. Foxy is incredible, but the kid has no equal in MKX.

 

[SM StarGazer]

Kitana has hella medals now. Hahaha hold that shit Tanyer. People say Kitana is trash..

The devil is a motherfucken liar! Biotch!!

Props to slayer for representing the shaolinkrew, the reset was hype. A win would have been god tier but it was still good to see for us shaolin mains

Shaolin is poop

 

[TackyHaddock]

Also, shoutouts to @YOMI REO for that Tigrar fury hype. Showed great resourcefulness and how you are one of the most avid students of the game

Thanks for that intelligent comment. Very insightful contribution to the discussion.

Are archives up yet?

I know I called YOMI getting hella top 8 spots and we got 5 haha, but great stuff by the CR guys and Jupiter for holding it down, see y'all next event. YOMI Boyz got some work to do to get back on top.

 

[Lt. Boxy Angelman]

Slayer = the MVP of the show. Bringing Kung Jin back from relative obscurity big time.
Dragon was a pleasure to watch in spite of how much I loathe Tanya. Gotta respect the power.
Sonic Fox remains the GOAT as 2015 comes to an end.

Great show.

Is true that you and DJT aren't coming back to ATL?

 

[Blade4693]

Anyone got a link to the whole top 8? I had to miss it tonight and just got home :/

Yes it is true, we are going back to school
