MK9 Grand Final vVv Reo vs vVv CD JR - CEO 2012 Tournament

[@JK-nj3bt]

Mk9 times seems more bright and happy

[@randomtv9820]

Omg. I thought I was the only one who feels this.

[@iMorands]

they were

[@keithragin89]

@@randomtv9820 you’re dumb then

[@alarminglyfastmovingskelet7289]

They were. Game was horribly unbalanced but was still so hype and upbeat compared to the scene nowadays.

[@river17_]

​@@alarminglyfastmovingskelet7289Why do you say that*

[@Nyxnik]

who's here from reo's video on kenshi? :p

[@stryderlao]

“It has ARMOR”

[@pringelsthegamefreak]

Me

[@raekm]

First thing i did lol

[@anima132000]

And then you really do see he basically is that cheap XD That said, this Kenshi was more played as a full screen zoner though so.... yeah... it was just good luck trying to get in!

[@Davidian_]

Such a godly demonstration of adaptation from both players. After being dominated for about 10 rounds in a row, CD Jr takes a game and Reo realizes he's adapting so he switches to Kabal. Major props to both.

[@tefranger]

Oh kenshi, u are the reason I learned raiden as a secondary.

[@DominationWarrior]

Awww, I was so rooting for Jax :(. Oh well, nice stuff from Kenshi and Kabal.

[@CrownsforKings]

After 11 years still the best mk game imo and it’s honestly criminal how they shut down the servers

[@AmirSatt]

I have all new games but I still play MK9 from time to time. It brings so much good memories, when things were simpler, lol.

[@CrownsforKings]

@@AmirSatt still holds up too

[@MyAuraMyEraMyMe]

Kenshi doesn’t fight with his spirit, it’s telekinesis, the power to create invisible force using your mind,

[@TheRealKiller01]

Why is Kabal so freaking good, I used to play him in the Nintendo MK's and wasn't as badass as this Kabal xD

[@texteel]

kenshi is the cheapest char....

[@vlonegaming8622]

It look like someone playin mk 11 vs someone playin mk 9 to me kenshi was different

[@TM2SMG]

I remember as a kid I bought kenshi, and thought he was cool, little that I know I was maining a top tier the whole time, oops

[@XuHqT]

These are two of the worst commentators I've ever heard, period.

[@nickmarkins6746]

This was the tournament back in the day where CDjr complained about Kabal and said he could win EVO 2012 using only Kabal to prove a point of how unfair and broken Kabal was... However little did anybody know that at EVO 2012 Perfect Legend would unveil the most broken character in NRS history "Bird Lao"

[@Jorel032777]

Why even have announcer's they are talking about different shit and don't even seem to be paying much attention to the match. I don't care about anyone texting you.

[@PyroInferno110]

They were commentating though watch the whole video nerd

[@prueba8000]

Agree. They really suck as commentators

[@indcolts41]

not at this level man Kabal is absolutely ridiculous at this level of play Raiden is good because of his teleport but a lot characters can take Raiden without THAT much of a problem

[@NerdGlassGamingPA]

Why almost like all MK casters are bad ? Is it because these events are not close to Pro ? I mean just look at Starcraft 2 casters they are like Professors compared to these guys , so into game etc..

[@Joel-vk3cf]

REO playing Neo

[@kevinkart2304]

At ceo

[@Nepazed]

I've noticed all Mk9 commentator for the tournaments are almost all fat people.

[@themixedarts]

I dunno, Kenshi projection attacks hit you almost instantly. in my opinion noobs slide and body throw are easier to block.

[@pngviniciustatui]

GAMEPLAYRJ

[@ProtonixHD]

Reo is awesome xD

[@Kindred1a1]

Its amazing how far MK commentating has gone. They legit just talked about Kenshi's boots in the first round. What nonsense lol

[@DenisBabarykin]

Is CD stupid? His Jax obviously sucks to Reo's Kenshi, but he continued to choose him! Why?

[@AlexTTzer0]

why doesnt he change to raiden or kung lao?for fk sake..

[@KelKreatorMan]

Reo is the most coward player, he play as kabal and kenshi, zooning characters

[@Blooddiamonds188]

Do you not realize how much skill it takes to be a great Kabol character? I don't think so so stop your hating on zoning characters!

[@garaypower2852]

Blood_Diamonds78 stfu you sound stupid AF. those are both zoning characters probs the best at it

[@RuneFun12]

Yeah while Kabal is made for zoning doing his IAGB is not easy... It's actually rather difficult to do Instant air gas blasts with kabal if you are not used to it (Muscle memory wise etc). And while rushing down your opponent with a Nomad dash followed by a cancel you need to be ready with all sorts of reads + mixups AND perfect execution, you fail Nomad dash cancel pressure you get punished.

[@ZenseiSmoke]

Did ppl complain abt zoning bk then

[@PyroInferno110]

I believe so lmao

[@tumbles19911]

Kenshi 8s such a cheap character

[@Junayd100]

Yeah. I remember seeing Perfect Legend and someone else vs two other people. I just can't remember what tournament, year or video it was.

[@REALEDIBLETV]

wrong, cross ups to apply in the case of the knocked down trying to wake up, if u jump over them, it thros the whole input off

[@cerebro911]

Oh, haha. yeah I thought Airs and Ultradavid did a really good job of keeping the conversation on topic about what the characters on screen were doing and the strategies that the players were employing, while being humorous in the interludes.

[@bakarbakarbekov1318]

at 5:07 jax does an enhanced punch but instead throwing him away he throws him on the ground. could anyone respond to me and tell how u can do this? tnx!

[@samhall2410]

This event and this fight especially is an extremely high level. But a lot of MK tournaments don't have official casters. It's not uncommon for the casters to be other tournament players who don't have a match at the time.

[@cerebro911]

Hey man, you never know when kids might be watching.

[@kunklorddave6916]

Mortal Kombat 9 was the best MK games. Mk11 & Mk1 are trash compared to this beautiful creation.

[@stronderbezouro]

Guys, understand it, Kenshi is a zoning character and Jax is a rush down character!

[@anafr4]

Bruno - NeoSpace I think people's issue is the fact that kenshi is too easy to play as, playing as kenshi I could pull off 8-10 hit combos and I'm not even good at MK. Other characters took time and practice but characters like kenshi does not require skill at all.

[@RuneFun12]

Angel Delcid Not true.

[@anafr4]

RuneFun12 it is true, which is where the hundreds of compliments are coming from.

[@TheTurtleVillage]

Angel Delcid Every character takes skill to play at a high level, you still have to make reads and have great fundamental skills. You have to punish in all situations and make the right decisions. Some characters take more skill than others, but they all take an extreme amount of skill and game knowledge to make it late in a big tournament.

[@anafr4]

TheTurtleVillage Some characters are just too easy to play, you wouldn't have to remember a lot of their button sequences to pull a crazy amount of combos. And kenshi is one of those players, every game has one of those characters

[@Cr1mSiR]

Almost everything you listed, is in most conventional fighting games, namely super smash bros. What i meant by intricate mechanics would be counter hit set ups, option selects, crossups (although not that complex, isnt even a factor in this game given the block button).

[@cesarcontreras8853]

both of them belong to the same team vVv, cd jr is better than Reo, cd jr let him win.

[@RevientaCuc4s]

Cuando ves un Kenshi o un Kabal ya sabes que las peleas van a ser aburridas 💀🤙🍆

[@Cr1mSiR]

because there is nothing intricate about this game to discuss.

[@stallion4u77]

Old Boy gave it to reo but Kabal was just to much

[@cerebro911]

...no, I said the ones at EVO were.

[@newtonianromance]

CD junior looks great! Has he lost a lot of weight? looking good bro

[@lRekol.S.T.]

yep nice and league of legends xD that assians

[@187Wretched]

oh I see, but still those exist and technically make the game more intricate even if they are not exclusive to this game. though I agree it could have used some more, I'm not a fan of breakers either because of it being linked with the block button

[@AsariC0mmando]

lol self explanatory, to check buttons

[@kathydierain1580]

I Wanted To See Him Play With Rain What The Fuck?!?!?!!?!?!? 1:32

[@vagnerdonizete8147]

kenshi lixo te amo jax

[@acceptpapara]

12:54 --> Geography lessons from Tom Brady

[@kouradol2]

its because of the character of the tournament, i think. if you see tom brady (the not fat guy from this video) commentating on the mlg events he's nothing compared to this commentating right here.

[@ryanpalmer19]

seems you're passionate in stalking me....

[@ChoseDeath]

"I'll take your word for it." I'd love to see Noob beat Kung Lao. I'm with Tom, I don't think that match is winnable, all things being equal.

[@cerebro911]

I was just kidding, yeah, that was a stupid comment and I even think the decision to take the blood out of MK at tournaments is a little weird. overall though, for over an hour of talking I just thought they did a good job.

[@BrendenBasica]

Tom Brady is a really good commentator, but for some reason he wasn't really saying much this match.

[@stealthbc08]

to check buttons

[@BrendenBasica]

Smoke vs Kenshi is 5-5 so probably just wanted to use the character that he was better with which is Jax.

[@crisX35]

Why jax make a spinebuster in the special move "dash punch"?

[@newtonianromance]

Its because MK casters are actually players. In ST2 their job is casting, thats all they do. HD is the only ST2 caster i know of that was actually pro. Makes sens when you think about it :). But i agree it would be nice to get some serious commentation happening.

[@ryanpalmer19]

Lies, Jax destroys Kenshi, people just play the MU so wrong. Jax has the ultimate tools that people don't use to his fullest potential.

[@Sodr7]

most of the mortal kombat players are in shape and the game isnt there life, vs the incredible master at starcraft(asian/korean)

[@morisa420]

umm they actually do.... small minded people like you fail to see that video gaming is an art, while you sit there and bash buttons on the next game you play just consider the hard work it has gone into it. some of them people play it as a hobby and some really like it.

[@jrsnunes]

kabal, lixo de tier desbalanceado.

[@illadin12]

When u game at this level ! your life is basically the game since Your the only one Special enough to actually make a living off of something Everyone loved at one point! haters are stupid and don't know shit . and suck to bad to realise how entertaining it is watching these videos!

[@S2369100]

I dont get why jr didn't use smoke when reo was using kenshi. Is it because the tournament rules didnt allow it? From what I know smoke is an excellent counter against kenshi.

[@ryanpalmer19]

It's called respect

[@artOVtrolling]

Kabal is a fucking monster.

[@Gabi24492]

U know nothing of this game

[@miniricardo7]

Reo came from Losers Finals so if Reo wanted to win Grand Finals, he would need to win 3 out of 5 matches to reset the bracket so that it's best 3 out of 5 again. CDJR won Winners Finals so he only has to win 3 matches to win. (Basically, Reo needed to win 6 matches to win Grand Finals while CDJR only needed to win 3 matches)

[@mokay14]

jax is the worse character to take on kenshi i always pick someone who can teleport when facing kenshi

[@cerebro911]

They usually just grab players who lost earlier, and some guys simply aren't suited for it. Aris and Ultradavid for Evo 2011 is an example of MK commentary done right. Some guys simply don't want to talk over the game too much as well.

[@WeAllHateCaleb]

boohoo someone is zoning.

[@xMxM9xSx]

HAHAHA noob saibot vs Kung Lao unwinnable polo lol go to newyorkjoseph's page and watch the money match

[@senshimak]

Why was the bracket reset? REO won 2 and the other guy didn't even win a round...why?

[@allolp]

worst commentary ever

[@xMxM9xSx]

And he also did eventually play reos Kenshi with kl... He lost that one too

[@Vahanification]

if shoot the new movie about Mortal Kombat that let a role of Kenshi will play Keanu Reeves

[@idkmyname91]

I've beaten several Kung Laos as Noob Saibot, but then again im not pro tournament level lol

[@codyforsberg3296]

These commentators.... It's brutal listening to them.

[@tonystark19631]

epic boringness

[@RainxFly]

No live?Me tarzan you ?cmon. man it's easy game and not for stupid ppl. wanna hear what is no life?go check some world of warcraft players that is ''no live''

[@PlagueDocttor]

Blackula is the best kenshi, i want to see blackula vs reo it kenshi.

[@ASnazzyNinja]

I know Jax is gdlike and all, but CDjr should have noticed that he can't only play Jax.

[@ririworks]

we really need this with original music, no two guys talking

[@honeycuelshade]

you serious best gamers in the world an they cant pull of a fatality first go

[@txbestfire]

Reo needs a haircut!

[@KevDu67]

not fatality

[@beircheartaghaistin2332]

Kenshi needs help dressing himself... when he's literally psychic 😂

[@TeamYellowJacket]

why has TYM been down for the last few days? something wrong with it?

[@UndeadShaolinShorts]

haters gonna hate MK

[@TKHYDeimos]

how do you do that enhanced dash punch to spinebuster with Jax??

[@WillSaint1309]

PERFECTLEGEND

[@johnnylb]

tom brady refuses to play kenshi cuz he doesnt like kenshis boots....HAA

[@ryanpalmer19]

God, CD j.r played the Kenshi matchup so awful in that set.

[@Vahanification]

COOL !!!

[@jesusalonso8278]

[@SnipersOfAtom]

How do you get that skin for JAX?

[@pringelsthegamefreak]

[@pmx1423]

Why was the score at 2-0 then reset?
