Some of these comments are hilarious, "Oh he won only because of this or that". If it's so easy to do then why aren't you people playing the game competitively?
Love how i see comments about fox spamming the grab combo, yet no one bats an eye when mit used inferno scorpion against that kung lao player and literally spammed the same combo as well..
Exactly anyone can do that scorpion combo this is what it is teleport juggle teleport get over here that's all MIT did and people call that shit a pro and critize sonic fox who actually performed great combos both rush down and corner and people call that camping but everyone has their opinions on things
It's a tournament, they are there to win, not to entertain, so they use whatever works even if it looks spammy, they can't be using combos and moves that can be punished or that can't be chained or don't do a lot of damage.
That decisive 5-0. SonicFox really is one of the best if not THE best MK player out there. Gotta appreciate the kid. MIT was also a very good Scorpion there. Props to both players. As a MK fan and player I can only wish to play at this level. Very nice match.
kevon wade There is some merit to it, though. Caltrops + low grenade creates a very confined situation for an opponent, at which point Erron can try to go for a command grab. That said Sonicfox is extremely dangerous as a player. He plays very aggressive but is extremely adaptive and it's comes together to make a perfect storm of a player.
Amazing job to all persons who made this come together, and amazing job to the players, you have done an outstanding job at demonstrating these characters at such an early stage with such a lack of practise(I know the feeling, I had the same thing with the injustice tournament). Sonicfox has now proven that he is an amazing allround player with multiple top 8's in other games as well as a barrage of MK9 and Injustice victories as of late. I cant wait to see all you guys play again and I expect big things for all the players involved in this top 8 (If Ryan hart sticks with MKX, and if we get a scene in the UK, Lets do this UK people!) Of course Mustard Ketchup and all the UK guys will be back. I also cant wait to see the likes of REO and CDJR come back and hopefully DetroitBallin and all the other classic players! Im so hype! I cant wait till Tuesday to get my hands on the game and you guys have made me 10x more excited. GGs to all!
***** Altijd weer die ezels met hun grote mond dat dit en dat gepatched moet worden alleen omdat ze niet kunnen hebben dat een player beter speelt dan hun ooit kunnen. Ze hebben iedereen OP genoemd in de hele stream om vervolgens zichzelf als een sukkel te laten lijken als de volgende tegenstander die zogenaamde OP character de grond in beukt..... cringeworthy inderdaad
***** Haha toeval dat je dat zag, want die chat vliegt voorbij op zo'n stream. Dat was tegen KI4Life ja, top Killer Instinct player uit Amsterdam, staat volgens mij in de top 20 ranks op het moment.
Knowing that there will always be better players than me in mortal kombat makes me feel weak, but proud that they can master this shit with time and patience and of course skill
So many jealous kids saying he has no skill. He just got 1st again. Hahaha I bet the same fools wouldn't last 10 seconds with Fox. Keep watching RUclips videos to learn your combos kids
Just gonna put my insights of SonicFox with his Erron Black, First obviously his mid-screen mix-ups that pushes opponents next to full corner range, it's just 28% most of the time but it's almost always done every like 3~4 secs with a high degree of success, Second his corner mix-ups + caltrops almost makes sure u stay on that corner guessing forever, also his 1 meter "breaker" (the meter-burn sand-toss thing) is a huge thing. For me that 1 meter "breaker" like move is the thing here.
If your that good at erron black you are a pro because erron is a very advance character it is difficult to keep a combo with erron so SonicFox is awesome.
Brandon Ham right? its easy to use Scorpion or Sub Zero considering you can just button mash a combo, but Erron has a lot of skill if you use him correctly. If you have no idea what you are doing, then Erron is not the person to be.
I LOVW Erron Black s armor dirt throw. In all of scorpion's momentum, MIT thought he had that upper hand, all of a sudden SonicFox uses that armor dirt throw in the middle of his combo that you CANT BLOCK. XD Props to SonicFox and his patience strategy
Those guys were born to play this game at this level... Me trying to do a simple kick or punch is a pain in the ass, imagine do a lot of Kombos and etc
Sclusive well, 2 of the 3 he mentioned were sportsmanship things (not saying it's a sport, sportsmanship can apply to things that aren't sports too)... Since in most videos I've seen, the guys don't fatality each other, or teabag
Shaun Newport we don't know yet they only played for 3 days.need to wait to evo to see the real top tier characters.I've heard that liu kang and johnny cage are very good as well.
***** I guess I've always thought of gaming (even in a tourney setting) as a casual, fun affair between like minded individuals where presentation isn't a priority. Now that big sponsors are stepping in and monetizing everything, I think that competitions like this one have lost that fun, I-don't-give-a-shit "spirit"
He is great at games but I still don't understand why the presenters on a page on fb I follow, thought the need to point out he is homosexual was necessary
What’s wrong with pointing out something he’s proud of and constantly points out himself every time a camera is pointed at him without a controller in his hand?
Marcus Mobley Ear buds to hear the actual game audio and the larger pair cancels out noise over their whole ear. Pretty sure that is the case as they mentioned the players can't hear the audience under the headphones and regular headphones that do noise cancelling aren't enough so two pairs are used to enhance the game audio but also drown out the rest. My best explanation hahaha might just be a professional player fad/technique
I personally would like to hear the crowd even if the crowd isn't on my side and I'm getting wrecked, would rather hear them then get caught up in my own head, plus noise never bothered me. In this match up if I was MIT I would have taken to more teleports to mitigate Sonic's corner combos, and definitely punished those dive kick EX slides that really screwed him, I mean they only had two days to practice but maybe branching out to a back up character would have benefited greatly, Commando Kano would have had a great advantage against Erron Black because of the big damage punishers, wish the tournament was more varied overall, all the interesting and varied styles were eliminated by constant 35%+ damage corner combos :/
Marcus Mobley StarCraft players used that so they could listen to their own music while playing, or even the game itself... they are not nervous, but they need concentration.
One set of headphones is for listening to the game (the earbuds I am assuming) and th other is to cancel the sound of the crowd (bigger headphones) I'm only guessing but they do it in Starcraft? So that the crowd can't tell the players where they are on the map.

The fact the MIT didn’t change his character after being absolutely slaughtered as scorpion is astounding
He didn't have another character he could play
Who else was he gonna use? That was probably his best character. Be mindful
In his bio it said he uses multiple characters at a high level. I assumed they were player locked as to why he didn't change.
