I cant wait to see the haters now. He won with a low tier character and a character ranked number 8. He also went through losers and reset the bracket.
Doesn't really matter about tier in this game. It's mostly just match ups. But sonic fox did his thing and won. He's a great player but the character has nothing to do with it. He's just good
like a boss sky Always nice to see underused characters in the spotlight. I hate to see overspammed characters matchups. I remember coupla years ago Kung Lao vs Kung Lao over and over, ugh!
like a boss sky sonicfox is the best NRS player there is no question about it. Coming from losers and beating all the yomi players 2-0. beat the guy who sent him to losers . reset the bracket and won with a NERFED erron black. i can't hate on that...
You probably dont know anything about foxy grandpa or this game either. Foxy grandpa trailblazed his way to winners with his kung lao, but sonicfox is still sonicfox. And to me it looked like foxy granda did not really know that much about kitana. Atleast in the first rounds. If you still think foxy granda sucks i advise you to go watch his other games :)
I didn't watch much of EVO, I only got to see pools and didn't see shit from Foxy. But I believe he had good pressure in this fight.. Until SonicFox used Erron, then he got FUCKED.
Mista Jerka I decided to learn kung lao and found foxy granpas match footage and had been following him since then. I was incredibly hype when i heard he was in grand finals but of course buzzkillington (sonic fox) had to be there lol
This sort of togetherness and they claim playing fighting games encourages delinquency and violence. Well done to sonic fox and send this video to the politicians trying to censor video games.
There are innocent black people being killed and animals being tortured and cops aren't doing their jobs correctly and you're worried about a video game... You think people are just gonna walk out into the open and try to fatality someone? "BUT ERRON BLACK DID IT! I HAVE TO DO IT TO."
Faraji Green But that's exactly my point they blame video games for the same crimes you just mentioned that's exactly my point. I just saw a debate with a politician and he said Call Of Duty is causing a raise in gun violence in Chicago USA I just saw that and I don't agree.
Unbelievable work from the reigning champ, continuing to prove himself especially after a reset! Great work from SonicFox!! Loved seeing the switch to Erron Black!!!
SonicFox also won the Skullgirls tournament at Combobreaker earlier this year. Pretty much every good Skullgirls player was there (WAY more than were at Evo 2015). I don't know how he does it, but he seems to dominate any fighting game he plays, almost immediately.
charles jones Except fighting games that matter like Street Fighter, UMvC3, Guilty Gear, etc. Combos in MKX and Skullgirls are ridiculously easier than these other games.
GroovinFunk Combo execution should not be a big factor in your success in a game. It should be more about match up knowledge, spacing, footsies, and punishing at the right times. MK is better in that regard, but it has its issues as well of course.
just came back to this video after watching mk 11 evo 2022 sonic fox vs foxy grandpa. the exact same end to the game with the nails but in foxy grandpas favor. Talk about full circle 😂
Mann! 😨 once he switched to to his main. ..he won like 3 consecutive matches, I mean they were heavily contested but I tell you sonic is insane... especially knowing the fact that foxy swept DJT maybe 1 or 2 in the world the back draw and he managed to sweep Honeybee which maybe in the top 3 or 4 mkx player in the world. That just certifies him as the undisputed number 1 mkx player.🐹
That move Kitana does when she goes low looks like the phoenix stance that ive only seen in Tekken from Ling. Does Kitana actually have that stance or is it just for show?
I don't see why grown ass men hate on a 17 year old kid that's just good if not the best at NRS games for the past 2 years. Stop crying and put in the work. (Level Up)..... just a quick rant btw. And I noticed how A FOxy Grampa took the match vs DJT personal and completely showed the world who has the best Kung Lao in MKX. It was great that SonicFox gave Kitana Prime respect and recognition for training him how to play with Kitana...... I guarantee salty people are going to ask for Kitana (Royal Storm) to be Nerfed.....watch.
Tiyana Harvey Yeah, NRS seems to be nerfing characters left and right based on their tournament success, but that's not always fair because a lot of times their success comes down to lack of tech and character knowledge.
He seems hard to play but he's good because he has multi tiered mix ups. No on plays Sonya but she basically has the same potential as him with a slightly less safe kit (covert ops). I like her kit more because of her dive kick but I've been using demolition now.
Rick Rackley Sonya is played far more often than Erron Black on the tournaments. At this point after all the nerfs Sonic Fox seems to be the only one using Erron. And it's so fucking sexy
Skoshtwo People hate on sonic fox and I don't know why. He is literally the person causing characters to get nerfed lol. Then I guess he comes back and says "I don't know why you nerfed him because only I can make him OP"
SkyflyNB It's not surprising here. If you go back during 1991-1994, the best SF2 player in the world was Tomo Ohira and he was only 13-14 years old back in 1991 when he was destroying everyone while winning every tournament in SF2 back in that era. SonicFox has my up most respect though, considering when everyone was giving him smack just because he was so young (especially the older MK players), however it's been proven that he is without question the overall best player in the world in MKX.
Why didnt FoxyGrandpa switch back to tempest Lao to counter erron Black? Seems like he may have had a better chance or at least extended the contest. It's evo. Put ALL your cards on the table.
I feel like this game is going to be like what Tekken has become. Great for tournaments but too difficult for the general casual audience. In order to be decent at this game. there is no choice but to learn the high, mids and lows of every string of ever character, and train yourself to be quick enough to block them ONLINE (which BTW is much more difficult to do than offline...maybe thats why ESL a mostly online tournament was worth much more). There are too many times where there is nothing you can do if u don't know the opponent's strings and on top of that...you have to deal with the mix up game. Too bad, I really love my character Mileena thats the only reason I play. Im also looking forward to Rain for DLC!
***** You have to literally dash for like, 1/3 of a second after that. It's extremely hard. He lands it every time. I can do it maybe 25% of the time I try to do it. Kitana is my main and its soooo hard. Seeing him do that everytime flawlessly gives me a ton of respect for his level of talent.
The way I connect it is run cancel into the d1 a split second after you launch your opponent in the air it's much easier then raw dashing up but still a tough input. But once you practice it becomes easier to get the timing down
Jameson I said it multiple times. Kitana is extremely hard to use along with erron black. sonicfox is just good. People are bitching about kitana buffs..etc but her combos are not easy to do at all.
I never seen anyone bitch about her buffs but in her defense, before the buffs, everything she did was punishable. Thats just not okay in a fighting game lol
The only game I notice where online players seem better than tournament players is honestly MKX. I dont know......maybe I havent played it TOO much to find a full scope but Ive seen some crazy ass online players.
RaginDXDemon Online is laggy as shit and you can get away with a bunch of stuff that these pros would punish you for every single time offline. A lot of the pros stream online games too and still destroy everyone, but you'll see them occasionally lose to gimmicky online tactics.
DJT and Dizzy beat SonicFox because you have to be aggressive against him - in your face playstyle. You just can't stand back blocking waiting for Sonic to stop. Foxy Grandpa finally realized that in the second match and took a victory.
Love SonicFox's Erron Black over the Kitana. The zoning fan shit isn't fun to see but does work. Wish the would take the region lock off the EVO tho because there are still way better players that didn't get to play. I'm sure Sonic still would have won but it would deff be a different top 8
i read someone saying sonicfox started with Tekken. LOL there's a reason he went for a easier unbalanced game. im happy for him that that game giving HIM so much money but what u guys call skills, i dont see he having any in Tekken or even SF
here after watching the rematch in mk 11 after 4 years
5.21.2021
This kid is truly amazing.
Hahahaa what a finish, literally dying from stepping on caltrops.
Check out the common wealth grand finals. Thats an even better caltrops win than this one
Mista Jerka caltrops OP nerf ;P
VGamFVG I know lmbo. That made me bust up laughing. The EX spin on the caltrops made me laugh more. lol!
+scottlo211 He didn't use EX spin, just regular spin
I cant wait to see the haters now. He won with a low tier character and a character ranked number 8. He also went through losers and reset the bracket.
like a boss sky just wait, haters always have their stupid reasons to hate
Doesn't really matter about tier in this game. It's mostly just match ups. But sonic fox did his thing and won. He's a great player but the character has nothing to do with it. He's just good
like a boss sky Always nice to see underused characters in the spotlight. I hate to see overspammed characters
matchups. I remember coupla years ago Kung Lao vs Kung Lao over and over, ugh!

Credit to sonic fox. But I think that if someone could have eliminated sonic fox it would have been HONEY BEE. His Devorah is on point..
this kid is just raking in the cash
He making over 100k from the game he's a beast haha
Joshy Song Great work if you can get it! ;)
17 and winning Evos. Scary stuff.
Crowd went crazy when sonicfox picked erron black
The foxes are at it.
Amazing game, both players did GREAT!
You probably dont know anything about foxy grandpa or this game either. Foxy grandpa trailblazed his way to winners with his kung lao, but sonicfox is still sonicfox.

I was talking to the other user that said that foxy sucked. Comment got taken down tho.
Oh ok, I didn't see the removed comment so I thought you were talking to me lmao.
Mista Jerka I decided to learn kung lao and found foxy granpas match footage and had been following him since then. I was incredibly hype when i heard he was in grand finals but of course buzzkillington (sonic fox) had to be there lol
This sort of togetherness and they claim playing fighting games encourages delinquency and violence. Well done to sonic fox and send this video to the politicians trying to censor video games.
As the National Rifles Association says: "guns don't kill people! People kill people"
***** you sir earned a thumbs down for your comment.
There are innocent black people being killed and animals being tortured and cops aren't doing their jobs correctly and you're worried about a video game... You think people are just gonna walk out into the open and try to fatality someone? "BUT ERRON BLACK DID IT! I HAVE TO DO IT TO."
Faraji Green 100.

Steeleserpent? What are you doing here lmaooooo i love your DmC Videos!!
Hahah thanks Supa:) I love watching MK and seeing this guy win EVO twice in a row, especially when rooting for him this year... soooooo sick to watch
I hope he wins next year too so he can show everyone he truly is the best even though it was proven this year but still lol. This guy is too good!
SonicFox also won the Skullgirls tournament at Combobreaker earlier this year. Pretty much every good Skullgirls player was there (WAY more than were at Evo 2015).

+TheTurtleVillage and he just got. Into street fighter already getting in top 8
***** i didn't but he only played a month and got top 8 which is impressive and he's still practicing so anything can happen
"Pull your dragon tattoos out, THEYRE GLOWING!"
Hahahaha that's the funniest part of the commentary. That announcer's chill af.
1:13 Kitana with the Kitara water bending combos
Have someone any tips for the 112124 string? i can't pull it of consistently. It's almost impossible for me to hit the buttons clean without mashing
just came back to this video after watching mk 11 evo 2022 sonic fox vs foxy grandpa. the exact same end to the game with the nails but in foxy grandpas favor. Talk about full circle 😂
How much did he win?
***** are you kidding? coupled with the 60k he won at ESL finals. WOW
I got a question how come he didn't use ex spin when kitanna use that air cancel into neutral jump punch it would have worked
Damn! I was so happy to see a Kitana in finals, even if it was just for a moment.
been looking forward 2 watching these 2 beasts finally duke it out since mk9
does any one know if sonic fox uses the dpad or the anologe stick ?
Mann! 😨 once he switched to to his main. ..he won like 3 consecutive matches, I mean they were heavily contested but I tell you sonic is insane... especially knowing the fact that foxy swept DJT maybe 1 or 2 in the world the back draw and he managed to sweep Honeybee which maybe in the top 3 or 4 mkx player in the world.

Who’s here after the 4 year rematch of combo breaker yesterday? 😂😂
I'm here 4 years after that💀
How do people play Kung Lao like that? I try so hard to work with him but he is difficult for me to use
did everyone just forget that sonicfox won mk9 last year too?
So what's with the tail and hat? I mean for Sonic Fox. I guess it doesn't really matter, but is there any special reason why he always wears them?
+bigblackracoon You mean that he's mental ill.
I love the crowds reaction when Sonic switched to Erron Black.
So you can spam and it's ok in tournaments ?
Pros are expected to know how to overcome it. It's spacing. You can call it spam but if you can't find a way through then it's on you
do you know how much time I would put in if the PC version was right??? Geez
who else came back after foxy grampa beat sonicfox the same way just now EVO 2022 😭
Os Melhores Campeonatos Do Mindo Só Aqui Na Evolution Mortal Kombat X
So happy foxy made it he's a sick player, love sonic as well kids a jwong Jr
Coming back to watch this and seeing kung lao forgot he was dead for a sec when sonic won has me rolling 😂
Was Perfectlegend at evo this year?
Andrew Bazzell yep
Wow, Erron Black, did not expect him to be that good of a character.
He really isn't.
He seems hard to play but he's good because he has multi tiered mix ups. No on plays Sonya but she basically has the same potential as him with a slightly less safe kit (covert ops). I like her kit more because of her dive kick but I've been using demolition now.

Connecting Erron's combos are tough and frustrating. It makes me wanna pull my hair out...still love him though
Sonicfox is the john cena of fighting games.
Wait, the dudes only 17?!?
yea he won his first tournament at 14
SkyflyNB Kid needs mommy to buy his rated M games and send him to tournaments with his snack-pack.
SkyflyNB It's not surprising here. If you go back during 1991-1994, the best SF2 player in the world was Tomo Ohira and he was only 13-14 years old back in 1991 when he was destroying everyone while winning every tournament in SF2 back in that era.
SonicFox has my up most respect though, considering when everyone was giving him smack just because he was so young (especially the older MK players), however it's been proven that he is without question the overall best player in the world in MKX.
7 years later and he got his revenge.
Why didnt FoxyGrandpa switch back to tempest Lao to counter erron Black? Seems like he may have had a better chance or at least extended the contest. It's evo. Put ALL your cards on the table.
justin lucas i am yet to see a tempest beat sonic fox, i guess that's why he stuck to buzz saw, plus foxy's main is buzz saw
I respect you SONICFOX, what a player
Can sonicfox make a combo tutorial video with erron black please lol
Announcer says the lore behing Kung Lao is that he has two mouths,shit had me dying XDDDD
Here after watching the run back in 2022 mk11 evo
EX ray? Okizumi? i dont know if this is some kind of joke or he really doesn't know the propper pronunciation
I feel like this game is going to be like what Tekken has become. Great for tournaments but too difficult for the general casual audience. In order to be decent at this game. there is no choice but to learn the high, mids and lows of every string of ever character, and train yourself to be quick enough to block them ONLINE (which BTW is much more difficult to do than offline...maybe thats why ESL a mostly online tournament was worth much more).

Too bad, I really love my character Mileena thats the only reason I play. Im also looking forward to Rain for DLC!
***** tekken is not that hard, MKX is up there with tekken in terms of Mechanics.
I remember this. He saved kitana for the finals. No one used her then everyone did after this match
Sonicfox is da GOAT dude is just genius
so wtf is okizumi?
Haha I've been wondering that too
xyloto Wake Up attack I think
That comeback in the second fight.
Was rooting for Foxy Grandpa from the start, was devastated he lost right at the end to Sonic who I am not a fan of tbh, but still was a great final.
And now we've come full circle in 2022 after Foxy Grandpa did the same to eliminate Sonic Fox using Robocop's spike strip
Still can't get her d+1 to connect after her b+1,4 then ex fan throw :( lol
***** You have to literally dash for like, 1/3 of a second after that. It's extremely hard. He lands it every time. I can do it maybe 25% of the time I try to do it. Kitana is my main and its soooo hard. Seeing him do that everytime flawlessly gives me a ton of respect for his level of talent.

Thanks for the tips tho everyone :)
Anyone else dissapointed fox won? I got nothing but respect but at this point he has no competition that you could just count on him winning everytime
I want to see how he would compete in the Japanese fighting games if he put the time in, then if he was good he would have constant stiff competition.
It's like ssb melee Ken was undefeated for 3 years but people starting realizing counters and he finally lost
WOW how many times is sonicfox going to spam the fan throw..
Man I had no idea Aris used to announce MK. Only knew him from Tekken.
Damn them caltrops. Gettin' first dibs on meter and chip kills.
The only game I notice where online players seem better than tournament players is honestly MKX. I dont know......maybe I havent played it TOO much to find a full scope but Ive seen some crazy ass online players.
RaginDXDemon None of them could take on Sonicfox
RaginDXDemon Online is laggy as shit and you can get away with a bunch of stuff that these pros would punish you for every single time offline. A lot of the pros stream online games too and still destroy everyone, but you'll see them occasionally lose to gimmicky online tactics.
Michael Western
100% correct
DJT and Dizzy beat SonicFox because you have to be aggressive against him - in your face playstyle. You just can't stand back blocking waiting for Sonic to stop. Foxy Grandpa finally realized that in the second match and took a victory.
"all you can eat huge buffet"
im dead lol
The surround sound they use sounds soo prooo
If only Jev could play like this. 😞
sonicfox rly should give USF4 a try
I think he can get quite far
LiangHuBBB He should play SFV cuz 4 sucks.
KhamStronk So V is any good?
***** Got to play about 30 games at GamesCom today and I'm in fucking love with it. Everything I hated about SFIV is not in SFV.
KhamStronk I know nothing about SF4, could you tell me some of the problems with it?
KhamStronk I should try the demo then, because I HATED SF4
Who here after Evo 2019
I feel like Kitana is a younger sibling and Erron black is the big brother that kicks a lot of ass
they couldn't find any commentators whose balls have dropped? shit sounds like a steve urkel impression contest.
I wanted Foxy to win so hard. Not just because I'm British, but I'm sick of Sonicfox being so damn good
Black man top tier
+FizzzyFizzz the fuck this has to do with black man
Nice fights! both did great!
kkk kra joga d+
It's an ALL YOU CAN EAT HUG-BUFFET HERE!
Fox is the floyd of fighting games
Love SonicFox's Erron Black over the Kitana. The zoning fan shit isn't fun to see but does work. Wish the would take the region lock off the EVO tho because there are still way better players that didn't get to play. I'm sure Sonic still would have won but it would deff be a different top 8
What's up with Grandpa's cheek?
CALTROPS OP!
Trophy unlocked: Fox Finish!
why does SonicFox always come from Losers bracket
Sonic Fox joga muito parabéns

*17:46** Reset 50% KRL mt foda*
The hate is real, it's hilarious lol. Amazing tournament and glad Sonic won EVO, he deserves it.
i read someone saying sonicfox started with Tekken. LOL there's a reason he went for a easier unbalanced game. im happy for him that that game giving HIM so much money but what u guys call skills, i dont see he having any in Tekken or even SF
Foxy Grandpa!? XD Epic hahaha
This quality sucks, the uploader couldlve at least got it at 720p 60fps
ITS NOT EX-RAY, ITS X-RAY.
Despues de 6 recien kache como kago el kunlao al final

FOxy was wrong with not playing Tempest Kung Lao

WTF is that Sonicfox guy gonna attack or what? =/
Oh now he did, took him long enough.
I want to sample an all you can eat hug fest.
