Indeed.Sonic fox is a rarity, but he did also avoid the heavy hitters and the heavy hitters took each other out for him.
He plays more than MKX. He had nothing to prove to them.Has Sonic proved the capcom community wrong yet or does he have to win a major to finally earn some respect?
I would love to see him do it but just being realistic it seems very unlikely that he would be able to pull this off at the biggest tournament in the world with literally all of the world's best players (specifically Japanese players) with a low tier character. If he pulled off even a top 16 at evo that would be a serious accomplishmentHe will advance further, maybe Top 8-16 at EVO for SFV.
He beat Julio (2nd at Winter Brawl), Wolfkrone, and Knuckle Du. Thats pretty respectable IMO.Sonic fox is a rarity, but he did also avoid the heavy hitters and the heavy hitters took each other out for him.
Yeah the haters can all hold that. He definitely proved them wrongCertain folks were saying he couldn't make a top 8 with all of the "big boys" present................. Proceeds to make top 8 at first Capcom Cup major......... with FANG!
Well done @SonicFox5000
I remember hearing that DJT couldn't make his pool.He beat Julio (2nd at Winter Brawl), Wolfkrone, and Knuckle Du. Thats pretty respectable IMO.
Props to Forever King for making it in top 128 too with his Laura. I was surprised to see that DJT went 0-2 in his pool considering how well he played Valle on his stream.
Oh wow, that sucks.I remember hearing that DJT couldn't make his pool.
Yeah, but I suppose that if that was the case, he didn't really go 0-2.Oh wow, that sucks.
Just curious...how does one avoid in a tournament where you don't pick your opponent?Sonic fox is a rarity, but he did also avoid the heavy hitters and the heavy hitters took each other out for him.
I guess what he means is that the favorite/strongest guys were put against each other and they eliminated themselves. As in sonicfox was pitted against other guys that weren't as strong. Anyhow it was a great showing from him and everyone that participated.Just curious...how does one avoid in a tournament where you don't pick your opponent?
That's something he has no control of, so why mention it?I guess what he means is that the favorite/strongest guys were put against each other and they eliminated themselves.

Yup I agree 100% with that he didn't pay off people to have the top guys fight and eliminate each other. I guess the actual guy who mentioned this probably was just saying that things would be different if he had to face those guys but I'm not sure, maybe he'll answer your question. Tying for 8th place in a big tourney like this is awesome, we can't bash him for how the pools went.That's something he has no control of, so why mention it?
Clearly fox is a talented kid. He just beat who got put in front of him.
