One thing i noticed about Rewind’s Reiko is that, he doesn’t care lol, he armors through almost every block string Sonic uses, and he always knows when to take his turn. That’s actually mad skillful.
Disagree with that. Folks acting like they don’t care is usually a front to cover up insecurities/trying to look tough or manly. We all know deep down they do care. Lol can’t say I blame them for trying to hide their emotions tho, emotions are for girls
ayo props to rewind for adapting that fast to sonic's playstyle, that man reiko is really something. let him cook a bit more and maybe just maybe we could get a top 1 reiko soon from him
Rewind Reiko is insanely good. Having a great time using him also. He has fun kombos, great space control, solid projectiles, a scary command grab when paired with darius, good frames etc.. just a really solid character.
No tf he isn't, he has a mid that's 16 FRAMES while johnny cages mid is 9 frames AND plus on BLOCK. But oh I'm sorry according to you riekos a "solid" character. You don't know shit
The fact that almost no one else has even been able to hang with Sonic’s kenshi, while rewind is taking full games from him is crazy, not to mention all of the top players consider reiko mid-low tier.
That double side combo from Sonic is nuts.. Its been fun watching his Sento evolve .. He use to cut the sento combo short to drop them in the pincer move .. but he figured out a way to keep the combo going and get them in the pincer at the same time.. Thats crazy to see ..his kinshi play keeps getting better
Bro that reiko fight animations, I like em so much. He’s like if mk was real fight, hes jab cross, front kick, the takedown is so damn clean, I’m really impressed by this char.
@@atcandotherthings4985 Sento does that to everybody lol, it ain’t just because he’s on Reiko. That’s what a puppet character does, it’s why Kenshi is considered top 1 by a lot of people. And look at how many times he was still able to armor through gaps in Sento pressure as well
@@dokethakushite7400 yep it feels like some characters like reiko, reptile, sub zero, etc are very kameo-dependent in order to perform amazing/effective combos, while characters like baraka, mileena, johnny, smoke, kenshi, geras, and raiden can easily & effectively do their own combos without relying too heavily on kameo (doesnt mean not using it at all) and melt your hp fast
Command grab into Darius kick to convert into a full combo is so sick. Variation system in the old games couldn't even hope to be as creative and flexible.
Damn sonic I’m so glad where at a point of time of your RUclips videos having the highest quality I’ve seen from your part in a while I use to click on videos of you dominating people on 720p lol keep up the work
How do you guys deal with Johnny in the corner? I main Kenshi, and I’m trying to see what Fox does, but it seems like once you’re there, at least with Kenshi, it’s very hard to get out
You need to make a read on him or use the following, 2,1,2 the safe launcher can be up blocked and punished if you make the read. His 2,1,3,4 string I believe is the input also has a gap after the third hit in which you armor through. Most of his plus frames start with a high so you can also try and make a read duck and punish. You can also be patient and wait for his mid string because at any point he decides to free cancel or finish the string he lost his turn. You just need to lab what your options are. Also that three piece mid string has a gap on the third hit as you seen sonic fox flawless blocking it everytime negating the chip damage
I main johnny, his 2,1,2 overhead string and 2,1,4 low string hav a gap it. You can armor through it. Also most of his string my be safe from full combo punish, but more time than not u can fit a down 1 or 4 in. Since most of his string start with a high
As Johnny main what they said^ but also every single string he has has gaps. F321 has gap, f123 is his only hapless string used. He gets a free F3 unless you armour after s1 s11 s2 s4 b2 and stuff, so you gotta respect the plus frames or use meter. Microduck his f1 or s1 then punish him for using highs. F34 you can just fully interrupt with buttons if they’re using it often
I don't understand why rewind kept doing that combo. Off a raw grab you can get a 40 percent. But he kept ending it with the 3,4 down back 3. It barely hit 30.
Great gameplay, but Sento shouldn't stay on screen for so long. The chip damage is crazy, plus the time Sento is on screen to continuously do chip damage while Kenshi attacks is too long. It should be that if you block Sento 2 or 3 times he drops to one knee or disappears.
@@Esappx3It's only broken when the best player of all time is using him. A Sento nerf is really just a Fox nerf if we're being honest. Nobody else that I've seen is this insane with Sento. It's really just Fox has found a character that is unbeatable when HE AND ONLY HE brings him out. 🤷🏾♂️
@@DeeboComingYou're joking, right? Please tell me you're joking. Fox is amazing with Kenshi, but he's not the only person who can use him effectively. Puppet characters aren't impossible to play, lmfao. They are just harder because they are a much different playstyle than say a normal character. Kenshi is incredibly strong and I'm tired of people trying to pretend only SonicFox is the reason it is strong, when that is just a stupid cope take.
why does SF never say anything in these clips? would be nice to get commentary or breakdown of what is going on or what he thinks is good/ineresting about the matchup..
It’s kinda BS that kenshis clone just takes a knee when kenshi gets attacked and he basically stays on the screen the whole match too much pressure what up with that how do you make him go away ?
You have to hit him even if he blocks the clone will take a knee … when he is not getting attack the clone gets back up until the timer runs out and plus kenshi has a move that resets the timer after he disappears but you need meter to bring him back you can space and zone him out…. Kenshi is hard to play and he is really good but I don’t think he is impossible to deal with the game is still early I feel like people will catch on as time goes by …. Just don’t get frozen or sento comes out
One thing i noticed about Rewind’s Reiko is that, he doesn’t care lol, he armors through almost every block string Sonic uses, and he always knows when to take his turn. That’s actually mad skillful.
You honestly sound so kissable right now I ain’t gonna lie
REIKO DEMANDS THAT TYPE OF PLAYSTYLE HES PRETTY STRAIGHT FORWARD
I agree. The only issue is that it eats up his bars so he can never break. Seems like a really tough match up
Disagree with that. Folks acting like they don’t care is usually a front to cover up insecurities/trying to look tough or manly. We all know deep down they do care. Lol can’t say I blame them for trying to hide their emotions tho, emotions are for girls

It made me laugh too lol
Rewind cooks almost as much as he sells lmao, what a chaotically fun guy to watch
Lol

This video begins with Sonic perfecting Rewind and the next round Rewind perfects Sonic. I knew it was going to be a great video 😂
dude the immediate perfect into the reversal perfect yall are crazy
2:00…. Bro really used the same move 7 times in a row
Both had a flawless round to start it out! Love it!

His control over Seto is unreal
Sonic fox is kenshi
Sento
Wrong franchise bro ,That's yu-gi-oh😂😂😂
As long as your using your RB Everytime your not using sento... sento becomes super natural to control after awhile

12:14 dude was playing tennis with his body, aint no way
0:46 was sick, Rewind used the Kameo to knock him out of the throw to extend the combo.
might have to lab Reiko.
at 2:52 Darius looked like he was about to jump ship to team Kenshi LOL
Damn right at the start Rewind said "flawless for flawless." Mad respect immediately.
The fact that almost no one else has even been able to hang with Sonic’s kenshi, while rewind is taking full games from him is crazy, not to mention all of the top players consider reiko mid-low tier.
He’s definitely not low tier. Reiko is really solid.
meanwhile everyone is pretty much on board with Kenshi being too strong. It's no surprise SF is playing the character.
@@PetterNedoesn't know what mid-low means. LOL
Didn't ninjas Raiden cook him?
@@WutTheDeuceGaminggotta exploit the top tier characters to win the cash
This is an absolute masterclass of execution. I hope to play kenshi like this soon. Sonic is on another level.

Reiko is actually so fun, but combo-ing with him is kinda hard… his entire moveset feels kinda off, but very satisfying when you manage to hit it
Same goes for reptile
It feels like they left a lot of characters incomplete imo and they let the Kameos fill in the holes fr
@@TheBbbggggggg exactly

Big facts. The most difficult part about Reiko is the Grab!!!! It feels backwards Anna hard to perform during combos
The Johnny Cage arm wiggle was hilarious.
im really starting to like Reiko bro..i think he needs to be really pushed and discovered
Definitely has a lot of potential. Fun to watch, and his throwing game is really intense.
@@coltbusick6644 facts
Kenshi would be a lot less dumb without the frost low. The fact it combos off a normal is what makes it dumb
Reiko's kicks has such ridiculous long range too😂
Unfortunately everything about him has been found out lol
I love how the first two rounds is just them flawlessing each other
10:51 that Back step, he ain’t ready 🤭
My God, this mans Kenshi is like a work of Art.
Sonic makes using Kenshi so effortless but he's anything but lmao
Sonic’s Kenshi is absolutely amazing, the control and timing of everything is really good.
Man shoutout to rewind for showing us Reiko our high mid tier main can compete with the best !
Man's out here giving each other flawless like it's a regular day at the beach
Rewind adapt so quick that he took the second win right back.
Command grab into Darius kick to convert into a full combo is so sick. Variation system in the old games couldn't even hope to be as creative and flexible.
You would swear Sonic Fox has been playing this Kenshi for 20 years. That combo where he freezes them is Death.
That first round was like
SHOW ME YOURS AND I WILL SHOW YOU MINE
Damn sonic I’m so glad where at a point of time of your RUclips videos having the highest quality I’ve seen from your part in a while I use to click on videos of you dominating people on 720p lol keep up the work
Reiko actually has a lot of great answers to Kenshi's moves that most characters don't have.
0:00 - 1:06 perfect round each...so satisfying
Hyped set bro! Thanks for sharing!!! Looking forward to more from you and MK1. Hope you dominate like before! Peace & Blessings bro
This is how MK should be played. Rewind was giving SF a run for his money with Reiko. Fun match to watch. That Sento feels like bullying though lol

Who won against ninja Killa ?
@@esthervanda7401 It's been a few since I saw the video, but I believe Rewind won more.
Crazy comeback at 15:00
I never noticed the background characters reacted to brutalities and such (end of the vid) that is so cool.
Man you different breed dude. Crazy mix ups
''LET ME PLAY" is the only thing Johnny cage has on his mind
4:33 the start of a nasty sequence
Sonic kenshi corner pressure is insane, i learned so much
18:15 broo this character is CHEAP AS HELL sent stance launches on block thats so u fair lmfaoo - Slayvon112
5:27 this pickup was insane
How you going to design a character to hit you from the front and the back?
Would yall say that, so far, Reiko vs Kenshi is the highest-skill match up in the game? I know Shang is in that convo too
Meaning the toughest characters to execute properly
No not reiko. Hes pretty straight forward honestly
@@NoName-cz3wnyou can master reiko in a couple hours in the lab. just watch rewinds new vid explaining him
Geras vs Kenshi is the highest skillcap in game imo.
Dang your kenshi is next level... sheeshhh... reikos hit box is something else.. shot boiiz.
Holy shit, that 5:24 - 5:33 was very smooth
So far you are the best mk fighter I have ever watched 💯👊🏿👊🏿
That second round was a beat up, literally
Reiko is deadass top 5 in the game, I’ve been having so much fun mastering him and learning off of rewind
Reiko is not above Kenshi, raiden, Ashrah, baraka or Johnny or li mei
@@GODEMPERORWOOReiko way better den li mei bad buttons tooo many gaps and overhead kinda trash just good damage
Question for all the long time fans... Is Fox's Kenshi better than his Erron Black??.... because it's looking pretty scary right now..😬
14:28 rewind block an overhead while crouched. How?
18:50 sonic is cornered and just come back at him
that flawless on the first match was cleeeean
Should be illegal the way sonic uses kenshi…

Is that getup tackle thing reiko does blockable?
My fave Mk1 channel, shits insane
I think this was a tournament in Mexico
Can you have Kenshi vs. Kenshi, and have them both release their spirit Kenshi, and their Kameo fighter and have 6 characters on the screen at once ?
Rewind forgot about the block button in the first 30 seconds
Man after years Rewind's pressure is insane. If he cannot open you you're just a genius ngl
