Crazy they kept you guys playing against each other that early but still cool to see y'all fight in tournament again. Can't wait to see you guys play each other in MK1
Heres hoping for many many more years of these "inside my mind" episodes, its super interesting to hear top tier fighters "in the moment" thoughts. EVO robbed us by pitting you two against each other so early...
It was so cool seeing you face ninja after doing those collabs with him, sonicfox and fierce. I honestly expected you two to just constantly be joking with each other during this fight💀
The reason Rewind is one of my favorites is because he's hella good, he accepts his mistakes and he respects his opponents. Gg my bro you got the next one 🤜🤛
I dont see how people can confidently play NinjaKilla unless they just have a "f*** it" attitude. @13:14 That type of stuff would make me feel like im playing against a supercomputer. He has an answer for nearly every situation on top of getting the most out of any character he touches. GGs to you and good luck to you when you start attending them MK1 tournaments!
Dude i was upset that y'all bumped heads so early also. I wanted to see you guys tear through the competition together and both of you get to throw hands with the twins.
watching it made me sad so many times the amount of times i was like ohhh rewind wins this and then he dropped a combo or misread either way ur amazing bro and the fact that you went into this not as prepared and still got one round pretty much every match shows how great u are
@@Kachikooko I'm glad they listened to the community and sped the gameplay up a bit. With future patches coming sometime after release, this could potentially be the best mk title to date.
brilliant thumbnail, very high quality, lol! I watched this analysis on the twitch recording too, it's definitely cool to get some insight into what you're thinking
Here from india bro . Me n my homies were watching this live around 5 am rooting for you. Happy that ninja won but would’ve been happier if it was you .
I definitely agree that fight would have went a lot differently had you had a warmed-up Fujin. Nevertheless, your skill is divine and record speaks for itself. Youre a realist, and I think that is what has gotten you to this point. Very well done, my guy.
8:36 Considering all the layers of mind games that are involved in high level play Ninja is one of the best when it comes to that, keep in mind he’s really good at neutral and spacing so he could’ve planned that So it’s most likely the case that he whiffed the grab on purpose to bait you trying to whiff punish then he whiff punished your whiff punish… I’m certain he did that on purpose It’s not the first time we’ve seen him do some insane stuff so the possibility is there that’s what I think but you guys are friends so you can just ask him what his plan was right there and we’ll see what he says but that’s just my 2 cents
i couldve punished even if he did try to bait, I just didnt get my dash because i misinputed. grabs have a lot of recovery in this game. thats why i know it wasnt a bait but it did look sick so i get why people think that. whiff punishing whiff punish attempts are a thing tho just not with grabs. in street fighter they are tho because the recovery is lower
Cuando los vi a los sentados, mi mente literalmente explotó. Dije: Vamos amigo, tienen que estar bromeando conmigo! Esto es un chiste de muy mal gusto, pero así es la vida. Aún así a por ellos en Mk1. Big 3 Hurra!
bro gave me the hands, I gotta hold those 😂 but I know what I did wrong so it’s not like I can’t make adjustments and give a better fight next time in mk1
I get so much out of these videos Bro, Just seeing the match through Your eyes and Knowing what You were thinking during the Set is really dope. I know You're not happy with the result but I appreciate You breaking this set down and being authentic! You're a real 1 and I'm looking forward to seeing You kill it in MK1 #wherewasKannnne😆
Man beside you not putting in the much time fam for the event your still known as one of the best Nrs players out here🔥I love these videos man really show the inside of a pro player mind
Bro congrats you still are one of the goats of mk And you will continue to be a goat in MK1 ALSO who will you main in Mk1 Something is telling me johnny or raiden
I did get top 8, just not top 6 which was what EVO was doing this year for some reason for the first time ever in 20+ years. I got 7th and a medal but wasn’t on the big stage.
Well, glad not everyone picks fujin, since it would be unable to watch, from viewer perspective. Can’t wait for Mk1 and new content. Keep on keeping on, Rewind👍 set will be yours one day
Preciate both you fellas for the sportsmanship and hype. Definitely was rooting for you, especially after last year, but I think this was a W for the culture! Both of yall icewata
Man your still a mk champ winner and a pioneer in the game. I hoping to see you go crazy in mk1 ninja been getting disrespected a lot he had a a lot of pressure on him and he was worried to but he pulled the W at evo. I just wanted sonic to be there because folks won’t respect ninja because sonic still has major wins. I saw ninja cook sonic so many times. But I fool with all of y’all game play respectfully. It’s all good bro.
it’s not about being a vet. it’s called seeding. if you perform well at events, you’re rewarded a high seed and you fight people with a lower seed and eventually you run into higher tier players as you go through the bracket. that prevents matches like sonic vs ninja from happening in round 1 as that’s a better fitting match down the line for more on the line. ninja was seeded very low in this event despite his name and results which is why we fought so early.
Keep my true opinion to myself why y’all played so early … I’ll say they were riding the twins hype which I get. Regardless y’all still did y’all thing 💪🏾
Your results in Evo 2023, it has nothing to do with the great player you are, you simply were not focused, I know that some things decentralized you from mk11, for me you are still among the best in the world, there is no doubt about that.
@@RewindNV bet them hotel rooms at the Hilton expensive af I don’t think I can make ECT. That and the flight 1500 unless I take spirit and get a air bnb lmao
Ask any top 10 MK11 player in the world if Johnny is top tier and you’ll get your answer. You won’t understand unless you’re at that level. Definitely used to be back in the day before they took his + frames tho.
It's funny that people say Ninja is the only one that can beat the twins, but Rewind you're the only one that can beat Ninja. And you've done it before, btw shao does good against fujin, that leap is something kotal doesn't have
i’ve even taken out one twin (nicolas) in our only encounter that beat him early in the bracket, but mans is a legend and came back and got them both unlike me so hats off to him and the twins for being godlike 🙌
@RewindNV ur my favourite because ur a very good talker u deserve way more views than u get. Plus I only like the Kahns and ur kotal is god like but not as god like as videogamezyo's shao even though i know you beat him. Plus ive played you both i havent versed ur kotal tho i want to though. I really wanna see a kahn vs kahn set from you two ft5 or something. That would break the internet well definitely for me. Anyway even if u dont read this stay blessed g 🙏
The way brackets work is that if you’ve done amazing in previous events, you’re not going to play someone of NinjaKillas caliber early. That’s a match for top 8. Not top 48. That’s why seeding in tournaments exist so you don’t have Sonic vs NinjaKilla in pools. He was just incorrectly seeded is all and I didn’t decide to appeal.
@@RewindNV Absolutely right, that's why the twins don't fight each other early. It was unfair to put them like that, although ninjakilla wasn't participating lately, everyone knows who he is.
If you listen to what rewind says, you'll understand, elite players shouldn't play in a top 48 or 24, they're supposed to be top 8, top 16 at the most.
Fuljin is way too broken I still don’t understand why he is not banned lol Rewind you are amazing for using Johnny vs ninja you show balls for reals …. Unfortunately fuljin is too broken…. I would it like ninja play his main lui kang in the final but he didn’t have the balls… I didn’t like the final at all it was very sloppy . My favorite match the twins 👯♀️ playing mirror Johnny that was fair and real balls ….getting back to the fuljin thing boooooooo the mechanics of the game Carrie’s him so no point to comment about it it’s fake…
Congrats once more to the 🐐 NinjaKilla on winning EVO! Well deserved ❤
I wish I was good like you 😢

Thanks for this. I enjoy this inside my mind breakdowns
I was honestly so surprised why you two were put together so early. I just kept on saying, "Why?!"

More to come 💪🏾
It’s crazy how many new players are comin in
Since I saw the support, I'm very sorry, it was supposed to be ninjakilla and rewind vs the twins in the top 6 winners
This just has me more hyped for MK1. Great content bro 👊

They did the bracket so dirty man, I wanted a set between you and either one of the twins but that didn't happen...
It is what it is. It’s all good. Ninja did his thing and made history for himself. 💪🏾 MK1 is our next chapter
brilliant thumbnail, very high quality, lol! I watched this analysis on the twitch recording too, it's definitely cool to get some insight into what you're thinking
Glad you enjoyed!
You, ninjakilla, and Waz were the ones I were going for
You’re a legend! Congrats on being one of the goats of MK11, Can’t wait to see what you do with MK1!
Shouts out rewind for that mindset he could’ve just complained about going against NK but took the challenge ( also nice tekken 8 ost in the back)
Here from india bro . Me n my homies were watching this live around 5 am rooting for you. Happy that ninja won but would’ve been happier if it was you .
Your evo run and this video went "shhhupid" - fierce voice
I definitely agree that fight would have went a lot differently had you had a warmed-up Fujin. Nevertheless, your skill is divine and record speaks for itself. Youre a realist, and I think that is what has gotten you to this point. Very well done, my guy.
thank you brotha 🙏🏽
He’s barely human! You did awesome. Time to focus on MK1
Yeah, great sport, and great leader ship
it was so hard to watch this man when i was rooting for both of y’all to make it to the end!
Congratulations to ninjakilla 🎉
You played really good man but yeah, Ninja is a robot, he was very determinated to win the tournament
he had the twins in his sights and he got them! what a god.
8:36 Considering all the layers of mind games that are involved in high level play Ninja is one of the best when it comes to that, keep in mind he’s really good at neutral and spacing so he could’ve planned that
So it’s most likely the case that he whiffed the grab on purpose to bait you trying to whiff punish then he whiff punished your whiff punish… I’m certain he did that on purpose
It’s not the first time we’ve seen him do some insane stuff so the possibility is there that’s what I think but you guys are friends so you can just ask him what his plan was right there and we’ll see what he says but that’s just my 2 cents
i couldve punished even if he did try to bait, I just didnt get my dash because i misinputed. grabs have a lot of recovery in this game. thats why i know it wasnt a bait but it did look sick so i get why people think that. whiff punishing whiff punish attempts are a thing tho just not with grabs. in street fighter they are tho because the recovery is lower
Cuando los vi a los sentados, mi mente literalmente explotó. Dije: Vamos amigo, tienen que estar bromeando conmigo! Esto es un chiste de muy mal gusto, pero así es la vida. Aún así a por ellos en Mk1. Big 3 Hurra!
Fuck yeah!!! My fave series of yours. Why don't you make more of these, Rewind?
Anyway, I'll take what we can get lol
W content as usual, bro 🤜🏿🤛🏿
Was very disconnected from MK11 for a few years now so it was hard to want to make them but got more on the way!
was waiting on this haha
i love how u take ur losses like a man tho rewind didn’t complain at all jus take it and learn! cant wait to see u in mk1 evo!!!

Showed too much respect in my opinion.you’re still top 5 in the world.That’s what matters
thanks for the belief bro 👊🏽 i’ll try to get ‘em on the next one.
I don't think it was too much respect, it just came down to missing a few combos & punishes that could of easily turned the tides of the set

Great set. It’s disrespectful they had you play the goat so early not really fair. But it was a great set. Ninja is just goated at this point
Thanks for the upload Rewind! Always good to know what a person was thinking to add proper context to what you saw.
Yeah idk why they did that you should’ve been in winners and should’ve easily made top 4 but you still snapped either way
thank you bro, i appreciate it 👊🏽
Any idea on who you’re mainly interested in learning/trying out in mk1? Much love from Seattle 😎👌🏼
Too early to tell tbh but i wanna try johnny bad
I'm not a huge follower of the fgc but I do watch the top 8's, and I was so lost when I didn't see you're name on the bracket.
I did get top 8, just not top 6 which was what EVO was doing this year for some reason for the first time ever in 20+ years. I got 7th and a medal but wasn’t on the big stage.
@RewindNV that's another reason I was confused, thought maybe I was trippin. Sus af they do top 6 and put you and ninja vs on the bubble
Well, glad not everyone picks fujin, since it would be unable to watch, from viewer perspective. Can’t wait for Mk1 and new content. Keep on keeping on, Rewind👍 set will be yours one day
I was pulling for you vs NK. I think your Kano and Kotal are more entertaining than watching Fujin running away all the time.
thanks for pulling for me bro!
Definitely more entertaining but got to play the better matchup in tournament setting
You still did good .. I hope you get your revenge in Mk1.
Oh i’m coming 💪🏾
