Treta started today, so just in case you guys want international numbers for MVCI: we got 35 players, which is a far cry from the heyday of UMVC3 and SF4, and narrowly beats T7 by 1 participant. Injustice has 21, GG got 20 (which is actually a decent turnout, the "major" for anime in Brazil is Heaven or Hell and they get like 30~ there), KOF got 16 (KOF is dead) and as far as I'm aware SFV actually got a full 128-man tournament, huh.

10-4 in SF's favor yeah. Not as bad as the 13-0 rear end beating he gave to Perfect Legend, but pretty convincing

10-4 in the first set, 10-7 in the second. He turned on the setplay with Rocket Raccoon/Jedah so I guess that's gonna be the direction this game will go.

Shocked I tell you
I don't know if this was brought up in thread before. But appearntly this game had a smaller budget then Street Fight V's DLC. Which explains a lot.

You left out Sonic's perfects on Fchamp, and also that the second set was supposed to be a gimmick set with Marvel/Ghost Rider when the following happened:
  • nobody in the room was watching anymore, with everybody either leaving or playing casuals
  • the commentators told champ to "throw in the towel" 6 losses in
  • the stream goes down
  • champ complains that his buttons are set incorrectly (21 games into the exhibition) while the stream is down
  • he sets his buttons again and uses the opportunity to switch back to his main team
  • sonic cleans him out the rest of the set, culminating in yet another perfect

It's exactly what Champ deserved.

Most of that I left out cause I figured people didn't care, but yeah it was pretty lol at the time. But about the buttons, I thought that he switched his buttons when it was 9-7 in the second set? They only brought it up on commentary, I thought, at the last game when there was a long pause so I assumed that was when champ was switching his controls. Which would still be super ridiculous.

As someone who got into a tournament match where my controls were incorrect, you can feel that poo poo immediately. It took me 2 games to finally figure it out so I can understand him waiting a bit, but in either case he waited far too long to claim bad buttons. No matter if you're getting setplay'd on or not.

our every move is the new tradition
I think it's that SonicFox is just hard to fight in games and with characters that suit his style, which is to say, going completely balls-out from the word "go" without any thought given towards the neutral.

It basically requires a different mindset to fight him than it does just about anyone else. His biggest weakness is that if he's confident, he sometimes fucks around too much.

SonicFox is incredibly good and is or has been world champion for like six different games, so it doesn't surprise me that he's making a splash in the Marvel scene.

why does sonic fox win? easy it's because he's good at this game. other people from mvc3 are good at what they think this game is, the game that they play between one another

Sonicfox was the first one to understand MVCI is about BS pressure and dumb resets, mostly because he plays two games that are all about BS pressure and dumb resets. It's gonna be interesting to see if he just made it there first or if he's gonna stick around for the foreseeable future, there's always a guy that sets the meta in most fighting games but not necessarily survives the next meta shift (like Viscant).

Is this post seriously insinuating that Sonicfox doesn't have good/thoughtful neutral? Cause lol

He definitely likes his setplay characters, but he's done great with neutral-focused characters in the past too.

"I didn't see the part where he develops as a character so I guess he never developed as a character"
There are a lot of people out there looking for any excuse they can to not acknowledge that SonicFox is really good at video games, it's great

sonicfox could probably win any game, despite the competition, he chooses to play, provided he isn't playing a character(or characters) who are horribly handicapped compared to everyone else.

Didn't he wash out of SFv? I mean he picked fang but haven't seen him do anything in that game in awhile.
