Its such a problem here on TYM. People are always discrediting good players after one tournament.
Instead of having one person in the spotlight for one character, there should be many players in the spotlight for each character.
Especially, ESPECIALLY with such a low amount of representatives for each character.

Its perfectly fine to discuss strats, tech, pressure etc and compare the two players. But why does it always have to come down to who is better then who? It always turns into that sort of discussion in the end.

Its just a popularity contest here half the time, and who did good ONCE at a tourney on ONE day.
You're surprised that people think "You're only as good as your last performance"?

I agree with you completely, good for them. I was in no way trying to create some kind of rivalry between the two. I really don't care enough.

But yea, I need to remember to stay free though.

of course the good players knew that. but this site has a larger majority that are mk fans and this is their first fgc game. its a lot of those players that are the fotm players/fans and take things like players being washed up too seriously.

who else at foonzo has babied you besides jer?
Don't remember if jer babied me, although I'm sure he can. T.Roll babied me, then you avenged me by babying him.

As for your comment regarding flavour of the month, my post is maybe one of the last one to instigate that reaction from you. A lot of these actual kids on this forum have straight up knowingly pitted members against each other and stated that members are washed up the minute they lose a tourny. I truly don't give a shit who is better with Sektor. Gross will always be one of my favorites since I knew about him when he beat PL at that Caribbean tourney. It was a nonchalant comment that really didn't mean much.

I'm a fan of this game, fan of UMK3, fan of MK, and I've been here since the day I knew about it.

Meh, in hindsight, I hate the fact I even posted it. The fuck cares if Gross <=> than Jim...
exactly, no one should care who is better then who. people should care about how the character is represented and be happy there are more then one representatives.

I do support the making of this thread, PPJ needs more exposure.
