Man, if Big D had not risked going off stage in game 3, he would probably have beaten Sonix in a big upset and probably get top 8. One of the best sets I've ever watched, had me on the edge of my seat the whole time.
I just don't understand the people complaining about camping. Even the longer games are pretty short compared to most spectator sports and there's constant tension and mindgames which is enjoyable in its own way.
In this matchup, the first stock usually decides the whole game. If Sonic gets a lead he can camp, but he also struggles to break Icies' zone due to blizzard and all the other egregious hitboxes icies has. It's also not as simple separating the Climbers compared to other characters since you don't have disjoints or rapid moves. With all that in mind, very good execution from Sonix. It's not free regardless of what people may believe.
13:54 its fucked up that sonic can turn around and back air after homing attack. I feel like he should end up facing whichever direction he goes. But honestly fair would probably kill there anyways
Bro homing attack normally does send Sonic away from his opponent on hit, but you can B reverse it and it’s useful for combos. It’s literally just a use of a universal tech lmfao
@@DowntownWithBrown that was a pretty high spin dash, I’m referring to when a sonic spin dashes on the ground into IC’s, Utilt used to just scoop them up out of it or at worst trade. But yes high spin attacks should also be covered by this
I want that guy who loves sonix and believes he never camps to watch this set I've seen Grand finals that have resets that are shorter than this Hell the game 5 Olimar vs Snake was shorter than this 💀
sonix played the matchup correctly imo: if he just rushes in blind, ics beat the ever-loving shit out of sonic. that being said, sonix being a great player with a lot of matchup knowledge across the board still didnt really help the fact that this was a mad boring set lol.
Yea. Sonic is a cancer cuz you have to play someone mobile + disjoint to punish literally anything spindash, and if youre low mobility its run -> spindash charge in the corner and thats game
@@firewall5189agreed there's a lot of mu where sonic can lose interactions by playing normal, tbh it is kinda lame watching but I mean he's playing it right
The saving grace for Icies is that they can defend themselves with Blizzard while throwing out projectiles. Dedede can't do that, he's wide open to punishes when he throws out a Gordo.
I get it, Sonix had to play this way to secure the win, and like so many others think, its just not fun to watch. Sonic just has the speed to turn so many matchups neutral/in his favor, rather than needing to pick up a secondary character to deal with bad matchups. Gz to Sonix, hes the best to ever play the character, regardless of all the hate he has to take to solo him. Guess if my favorite character could literally be on the other side of the stage before my opponent can land after a short hop aerial, I'd abuse it too.
I am convinced everyone says this because in reality they really hate Sonix, but they want to have a buff and cool personality online so they just go and say this.
@@vzy8354Don’t listen to them. You’re showing good sportsmanship to an overly hated player. I appreciate your supportiveness, and I’m sure the competitors do too. 👍

Against Big D, it's never free. He has a set win over Acola despite the Steve match-up being, in Dawson's own words, "unwinnable".
People underestimate how well ICs do against sonic
TK+Rod is peak commentary for Ult
Also ggs to both players that set was a grind

@@Nick867 yea i know. It's still fucked up.
@@wonkyj7149 It’s not guaranteed either, it’s a 50/50
He’s doesn’t turn around he starts homing attack facing away & it can hit backwards it’s called “Backwards homing attack” - sonic main
@BigD I think this still works in Ultimate, but if you Utilt as IC's, it clanks/beats Sonic spin-dash.
@22:01 Looks like it does.

Showcasing the coolest tech vs the most boring tech lol. But hey, it is what it is. The turnaround in game 2 was impressive.
I wonder how big dedede would do in this mu it would be a camp fest but with projectile+inhale it might not be a bad strat

D3 does ok..... until Sonic gets a lead or gets in. Also Inhale gets checked by jumping and HA
People need to understand that yes, sonic is campy and “lame” but this is also the way you play the character. It’s optimal

Sonic is the most broken character
Anyway, if you're the best, they're always going to hate you...
Sonix shoulda walk up to him at the end and whisper to him "Next time main sonic"
Big D could’ve stopped this 🥲

Sonix is amazing.
You make us Lucas mains look bad
