MKXL - KC W5 - Semiij Vs SonicFox Epic

[@TVReyEntertainment]

Not surprised by the outcome.. Sonicfox is always incredible!!

[@MrTrilluccinati]

Remember seeing sonic being the first guy to succeed with double njp combos when he was playing erron and streaming around July 2015. Guy has been way ahead of the competition

[@yohannesb1946]

Nekros what, double njp? he did that? I should pay more attention..

[@yohannesb1946]

Nekros ohhh shit, I saw that shit...

[@skettelho]

aaaayyyee soooooonic....GOTTA GO FAST!!!

[@rcortez5979]

The hypest catfight ive ever seen

[@hamsterboi5782]

I've been waiting for this match for so long. is this the first time they played?

[@shinnokcentaur7551]

jstce no they play a ft10 error mirror once

[@MrCortland12]

+Shinnok Centaur do you have a link to that?

[@shinnokcentaur7551]

MrCortland12 sorry I don't as it was from cdjr's stream

[@DiorJeux]

That double njp combo @5:55

[@imgconnor6700]

damn....recordar es volver a vivir. oye que le paso a EXiLE_fullauto ???

[@Ben_Simon_]

Sonicfox won all the kombat cup weekly tournaments he participated and the one he didn't semiij won, so sonic returned to show him who is the king

[@irina1296]

Interesting and intense. I was waiting for this. I guess Semiij was a bit nervous in the final. Everyone is nervous against SonicFox. Both did a great job

[@kareem5570]

pay attention to how sonic changed his timing on the trades. made semiij block longer.

[@fierce8752]

Prolly the best match on the KC so far

[@ghostsnipertrue]

Semiji why? Lol so close yet so far

[@thewordalive18]

My favorite players let me watch this

[@Michael-nx4qi]

Waiting all season for this matchup

[@imnobody9847]

The first person to almost dethrone his kombat cup reign. And sonic fox the first one to beat his ravenous.

[@Ben_Simon_]

Christian Foster and destroyer

[@taiwan323]

4:50 such an amazing read by sonic but too bad he had so little health it would of been 2-0

[@WhiteFuryJade]

I'm new to all this so please help me out here, friends: what is referred to (by commentators) as 'respect' in these matches?

[@AVDAMAN]

WhiteFuryJade When someone blocks pretty much.

[@MrTrilluccinati]

AVDAMAN yeah, extensive blocking. This one match last week I think with semiij vs scar, nobody got a solid hit for 30 seconds, it was all pokes and blocking. That's crazy respect

[@WhiteFuryJade]

Thank you both!! :) I'm still straggling to understand some of the matches' slang, so it's nice to know there are people out there to help out :D

[@WhiteFuryJade]

struggling* .. won't let me edit the comment for some reason -_-

[@AVDAMAN]

WhiteFuryJade its all good bro. We're here to help

[@kcaster1000]

Why didn't he X-ray the combo at the end smh

[@ccrasierliln9758]

Keith Caster that's what I was thinking lol

[@rcortez5979]

I can feel that hes hesitating. Well its not really needed to x-ray in that kind of moment man better use it on breaking

[@kakarotogoku2159]

ese sonic fox es invencible en mk

[@Annokh]

Yup. It's not even worth it watching MK finals anymore if you know Sonic is in the tournament.

[@mynameishades2113]

I know Sonic likes Jason, Alien and Sektor. Used to main Erron. But never have I seen him being so unstopable than with Cassie. The girl is a killing machine. In this storyline I assume she's just a military sergant. Wonder if they'll increase her dominance even more after having her beat up Shinnok. I mean that would be too OP for MK

[@eLuZiveMaRiio]

wait since when was there a double njp in this game...sonic always finding broken as fuck tech

[@Ben_Simon_]

Manny S it's not a broken tech, you don't even get high from that and this shit is so hard to get especially in a match that there's nothing too strong about that

[@eLuZiveMaRiio]

Ben Simon But he got something off it as an impulsive reaction to doing the second njp...a lot of others wouldnt have even know you can get anything off it, so if youre in a situation like that and accidently get a second hit, you can still get something instead of nothing

[@Ben_Simon_]

Manny S actually it's actually pretty known. And if you accidentally hit a second njp there is no way you can hit confirm that into a full combo, that must be intentional.

[@eLuZiveMaRiio]

Ben Simon ahh i get you, so not hit confirmable. gotcha. you play on ps4?

[@Ben_Simon_]

Manny S Xbox

[@tomashudibe]

semiij is awesome, best mileena I've seen so far. Foxy was great with piercing too but so boring to watch

[@djzorbro2076]

I got nerves for Sonic there haha

[@sell241]

Echo has to be the worst commentator I've ever heard

[@sell241]

Aquamans alright though

[@jhnfl8994]

sell241 doughboy is 10x worse echo is k

[@Ben_Simon_]

Jonathan Flores doughboy and mindset are the worst commentators

[@MrTrilluccinati]

sell241 only good one out of these online tourneys is aquaman but that's because he plays the game on a pro level. I heard sonicfox commentating casuals once with djt and mit and they were sooooo hype I'd love to see that again

[@Michael-nx4qi]

agreed

[@itssara9605]

Sonic is really good but idk he is so boring to watch, that’s why I prefer semiij

[@nick23rawblu]

Im soooooooooooo tired of seeing people choke against Sonicfox. It's annoying. Not taking the win away from him, just saying.

[@MrTrilluccinati]

The Frigid King not only is he like "the sonicfox" but the guy is actually good. Sure choking is a factor in some situations but that's bound to happen anywhere. If someone was in a rap battle with Eminem, they'd probably choke before even finishing the session. It's sort of the rep that comes with being the best at what you do

[@nick23rawblu]

+Nekros Yea but that's what im talking about bro, you cant be intimidated. People freeze whenever their beating sonicfox because they look over and are like "Oh shit! Im beating "SonicFox". And you cant do that. You have to go in with the mentality of "I dont care who Im going against, I dont care who you are, Im going to win this fight!" And its just to a point where iv'e seen this happen with sonicfox so many times, to where iv'e gotten annoyed. I know sonicfox is one of the best(cant call him "The" best), but come on bro. Im just tired of people choking against him, that's all.

[@shinnokcentaur7551]

The Frigid King why exactly can you not call him The best

[@determined2win16]

That's actually true ALOT of people choke against him. He even gets away with so many punishable things. You can also tell when people play him they don't play like themselves, dropping combos they never drop, not capitalizing on things they always do.

[@Michael-nx4qi]

He didn't choke, he played dumb. He tried to contest literally every single plus string. it was at least 10. Maybe he should block. And if he didn't know that it was plus, he needs to learn the character - but I'm pretty sure someone as good as Semij knows the frame data. He played risky and got blown up for it.

[@Warhawk]

online warrior like i said

[@mander29100]

dumb... semiij could have easily taken this. someone already said it here and I completly agree: "I'm sick and tired of people chicken out against sonicfox!"

[@JosephWilliams-jk6cb]

2:35-3:30 nice spamming
