Such a high level production. Looks professional. The animations, score boards, voting, commentary. Exquisite 👌🏼

[@stormbreaker1777]

During the League every player got a own card and so on. Awesome 😎

​@@stormbreaker1777what type of card? 🤔

[@rraebanzzzz]

Been waiting on this, I was stressing thinking Rip was in the hospital or something, turns out I'm just impatient. Good health and good fortune to you, rip. I worry about you sometimes brother.

[@R1psArena]

Hey Rae, it's like you're able to see the future. I actually was in the hospital & that's why stuff was delayed. Thank you for the kind words ♥

The best online player I’ve seen

[@OhGummy]

Him ducking almost every throw attempt was insane

Just another Johnny abuser.

Faysal & Makoran was a sweaty one!

[@mubrik_]

Not a lot of love for mk javier here but i honestly respect this man 🔥🔥 What a tournament! The players really gave it all. GG

[@bi11y5pazm]

Javier took Scorpi-Juan pretty far! Gg to all the participants! Was an awesome series. 🙂🤘

[@daimionhollins528]

Game 5 of the Fasyal/Makoran match was badass 👊😆 Watching Makoran go for broke in the second round of the final match was epic to the max, adding a few combo hits to then, a fatal blow. 😯...😲-WOW! I was speechless 😶

[@steroitzz]

Because Johnny is completely broken and got no nerfs.

[@MartySportz]

I wish I could have seen the whole competition live! I love this series!

[@mnhokage6137]

These two are the best MK commentators. Thank you for this amazing tournament

[@ymeyers6225]

What a series to watch! Thanks for an incredible tournament R1ps!

[@randomarcher]

Javier is a strategist, you can tell by his play style. At 46:00 you can see he delayed his breaker to make sure he could get fatal blow available.

[@ikurama14]

Nah he’s not a strategist…. He’s just another man abusing chip and it’s very very annoying

[@RacerNight86]

He's a spamming loser

[@kliqit]

Javier has been playing the same slow ass chip style since MK1 dropped. Worst player to watch on all of rips arena

[@VortexS4K]

Congrats Kanimani for for being the first player to beat undefeated Faysal in a set. I was speechless. Kanimani played that match with great defense.

[@jonathangraber3628]

luv the vids...keep em coming....never woulda thought id see Raiden as a rush down chip character with a much slower teleport in any MK....wow

The first season i finished here in the arena, the first winner i ever seen in a season, All players are so good and entertaining to watch AAA commentary. Im so excited for the pc finals

[@UnicrisArt]

Amazing tournament guys. Lots of incredible matches. Congrats to the winner and all the other sick players. I don’t play MK1 but was a lot of fun to watch these sweaty players compete

[@lildookiestainEP]

Javier vs Roether match was insane

[@Koisy]

cant wait to play in the next season 🥳🥳🥳

[@stormbreaker1777]

Let’s go ✌️

[@bigfoot5725]

one thing I'd like to see change about these is the blurring on the fatal blows, I know you need to for KZbin but if you could at least show the health bar even in black and white that would be nice :)

[@WalkBesideMe]

Absolutely amazing finale!

[@RacerNight86]

Makoran you are the freaking man for that 1st set!!!!!🔥🔥🔥

[@abdullahharoon253]

Mkjavier got that dawg in him, climbed back up from losers bracket. Hope scorpion gets a much needed buff soon.

All ima say after watching this video.. 1. Great season everyone! 2. Some players Have unbelievable nerves and don’t feel the pressure and actually get better when it matters S/O the winner

[@dryice0v030]

Congrats kanimani

[@TheGarlicOwl]

Albeit, Kenshi’s sento stance is broken as hell and needs to be nerfed…I don’t think sniperking should have been trying to play at such a far space from him. Kenshi eats neutral for breakfast, lunch, and dinner while Geras has to choke it down with water. Regardless, good matches!

[@meetuptoyosu4945]

I came to cheer for Rain and Geras. so sad. Sniperking Geras is divine!!

[@Malugako]

Im one game in and it already felt like grand finals

[@PsychicSploob]

So happy with the ending of this tournament. Kanimani deserved that win and he STOMPED that whole tournament!!

[@Vorusen]

Johnny Cage is just such a crutch character and head and shoulders above everyone else now. That first match of winners bracket was so damn good though!

[@Not_An_EV]

So pissed that I had to miss this live because of work 😢 but thank god the GOAT uploads to youtube so I can watch it in all its censored goodness.

[@jupiter7229]

I'm so excited and surpised this is really the end!

[@Phenomestar]

My lawd! All work is easy work #Kanimani This whole run was sheer madness! Kani is a fast genius. Waiting on Disarted to adapt and the same names from Ultimate should get back on top😂🎉🎉

[@vvvoda]

you mean Disarted should switch to Johnny? ;)

[@Phenomestar]

@vvvoda Johnny I always told my friends has something about him that makes him unbeatable, but I am not able to bring it out myself as much as I can see it. But Kani demonstrated what I have been seeing and saying clearly. Disarted is also his own kind of genius. He probably will settle down for a high damage character and perfect it. Then watching him will be the treat of a lifetime

[@vvvoda]

@@Phenomestar I feel both Disarted and especially Kani are super talented. And Kani is one of the best examples of efficiency. However taking a non meta character and running it through a proper tournament is something I admire with players like Makoran, Roethor and others, on the Arena. Mako did great in all star tournaments as well. That s why Sonic and Foxy Grandpa are the goats in my view, due to creativity and innovation in tune with effectiveness. Until Kani and Disarted can prove the same, I can t be a fan.

[@Phenomestar]

@@vvvoda Great observations. I have my own way of compartmentalising them. The Mako, Roethor types are entertainers. The Ninja, Kani, Mkjavier, Sonic, Sosed, Disarted types are straightup killaz. The Afoxy, Mtndewthejoker, Fishlikesteve types are creatives or artists. If I view people in their own category of expression in my mind, I don't need to compare them and decide whether to be a fan or not. Cz the difference is genetic and not necessarily indicative of how good or not good they really are.

[@Anub1sM3rcy]

I faced Roethr’s rain in KL and he was zoning me like crazy. I’m so annoyed with him. I’m so happy Javier beat him and Tbagged him…
