Blue Blurs for Life!
With Echo Fox Sonic Fox absent to defend his championship this week, the burden falls onto his teammate Scar to carry on the streak for the sake of their crew. But with a stacked bracket ahead of him, it would be no easy feat. Featuring the return of JagoBlake and the long-awaited inclusion of Perfect Legend, Week 11’s finals would prove absolutely essential towards deciding upon our final eight challengers for the Season 1 finale of the Kombat Cup!
Before continuing, it should be noted that an announcement regarding the Injustice Invitational was made during the course of the Top 8. If you’ve somehow missed it, you can catch up by checking out this post!
The match to open Week 11’s Top 8 would be Perfect Legend vs. GTG Semiij. Known for his risky yet effective rushdown, Perfect Legend instead finds himself on the run from an untamed Semiij. The Orbiting Hat proves ineffective in covering his advance in light of Mileena’s strong anti-air options, and his panic jumps to escape offense cost him matches he cannot afford to give up. The loss of armor on his EX Spin can be made up for through a use of his EX Teleport instead, yet Perfect Legend’s use of it is absent in the set. Semiij’s offense proves to be too smothering for the legend to contend with, and the set concludes with a quick 3-0 outcome!
Second match would pave the way for a Week 1 runback between Echo Fox Scar, formerly PG Scar, and JagoBlake, formerly YOMI and now a free agent. In their previous encounter, JagoBlake emerged victorious 3-2. But Scar strikes with a vengeance, finding a consistent punish option against all of JagoBlake’s misspaced F2 attacks causing the Ninjutsu specialist to limit his use of the move. JagoBlake starts scouting the max range of Scar’s B2 string to force a whiff and punish, a tactic that proves effective, but his failure to remember the F4 string shatters his defense, giving Scar his first win. The spacing battle dramatically falls into Scar’s favor for the remainder of the set, and JagoBlake’s failure to challenge the neutral jump-punch doesn’t help his chances any. Scar achieves his redemption with a 3-0 blow-out to advance to semifinals!
