David hitting Aris with the unblockable on stream hug

 

[Shadow_Lord]

I was a huge MKX fan last year but I wrote it off this year when it was basically Aliens and Mileenas, but I'm glad I tuned in today as this whole top 8 delivered. Aside from the Alien at the end, but can't fault Sonic for playing to win. The guy is a god.

 

[Dahbomb]

This is actually really appropriate because I imagine quite a few people are actually waking up right now in the West coast lol.

 

[Emperor Bohe]

Will it be back? I say this because isn't Injustice 2 coming out soon?

Since NRS sponsors their games themselves, I'm gonna guess no. INJUSTICIA from now on. Until MX11 anyway.

evo 2013 had both MK9 and Injustice

 

[JensenBeeswax]

They gotta fix the room mics. There's no hype on stream.

 

[Line_HTX]

Praying so hard for our Lord and Savior to finally win one.

 

[Unit24]

This is going up on Youtube afterwards, right? I have no idea where to even find the stream archives.

 

[Askherserenity]

Haha David fucking with Aris with that forced hug.

 

[Boombloxer]

Fuck Alien. I want a nerf.

Still, great job from TM. Probably the best arab player I've ever seen.

Sonic Fox is cocky, but he's a Sonic fan so he's good in my book.

Eh, people said the same thing about Tanya and Predator, the top tier of players still beast with other characters.

TM actually forcing Alien is great stuff.

 

[Fardeen]

that was amazing!

 

[tearsintherain]

Popped off too early! Saw empty seats in the crowd, what gives???

partying all night in vegas + 9am tourney start time mixed with 100 degree weather outside = empty seats

 

[Seyavesh]

Praying so hard for our Lord and Savior to finally win one.

agreed i hope dual kevin wins it all

 

[pablito]

As someone that's never ever been an MK guy, this game is super entertaining. Almost want to go buy it.

 

[Apathy]

Aris best commentator btw.

Without a doubt. That man could make the most mundane things sound exciting and makes actual exciting things like that finals sound like the greatest thing I've ever seen.

 

[Dai101]

ITS MAHVEL BAYBEE!!!

 

[ColonialHawk]

Damn that was hype, really wanted TekkenMaster to win though. Congrats to both players.

Aris best commentator btw.

Agreed

 

[cordy]

That was definitely some DBZ shit. SonicFox kept showing his different forms out there.

 

[TWILT]

man i love this gif so much lol

 

[Zekes!]

I don't care about MK at all, but I'm so glad I caught that live. Incredible

 

[Scrub Mcgrubb]

CVS time?!

 

[Kadey]

Will Chris G finally win Marvel. It is TIME.

 

[A Pretty Panda]

fuk u melee it's your fault we're behind schedule already

 

[Neonep]

Will it be back? I say this because isn't Injustice 2 coming out soon?

Depends on when Injustice 2 comes out. I think next year they should have both and then the year after that drop the one that had the least amount of entries the previous year.

 

[Emperor Bohe]

Chris G deserves an evo win. hopefully he doesn't mentally break himself up again

 

[KingClown]

Maybe for streamers (and even then it's more to do with the production rather than the arena itself) but for those in attendance it'll probably be really fantastic once it fills up...

Yeah, I'm really enjoying it down here myself, managed to grab some pretty good seats. The crowd is much louder than on the stream.

 

[Sn4ke_911]

Will Chris G finally win Marvel. It is TIME.

!

 

[Shadow_Lord]

Wow Marvel top 8 is 7/8 Americans. Shocked that there's no Japanese. Too bad the non-American is arguably the best Marvel player in the world right now.

 

[Unlucky]

the awkward hug

Did not look awkward for David. He is not afraid to hug.

 

[Kayo Police]

CHRIST G VS JESUS WONG

 

[sixteen-bit]

100k watching MKX this early. Lawd, Smash and SFV are going to be nuts.

Europe will probably peace out by then tho

 

[fr0st]

Will Chris G finally win Marvel. It is TIME.

He has to face Justin first game. On losers side.

Hopefully he doesn't break down this time around too.

 

[V-Faction]

Shame, too. Loud as fuck in here. The crowd.was ballistic for the whole grand finals.

So nice to hear!

 

[lazybones18]

Don't believe Ed Boon on Twitter ever.

Mortal Kombat 3 movie is coming after all!

 

[h3ro]

 

[LiK]

Will Chris G finally win Marvel. It is TIME.

[Hazzuh]

For Marvel I'm happy as long as KBR doesn't repeat.

 

[Line_HTX]

Pretty hype Grand Finals by MKX.

Shit, Marvel about to be 30 minutes late, uh-OH...

Hoping that Xrd doesn't get booed at the end of its Top 8 because of this.

 

[biosnake20]

It's time for Chris G to disappoint us.

 

[ZeroCDR]

That empty ass arena, what a sad awards ceremony. At least the matches were still really fun to watch. I'd play MKX a lot more if they would at least give PC owners the latest netcode buff.

 

[A Pretty Panda]

He has to face Justin first game. On losers side.

Hopefully he doesn't break down this time around too.

You see that stage he's on I'd be surprised if he didn't freak out

 

[Immortal Technique]

That was a tremendous grand final. Seriously a tough act to follow.

Shame, too. Loud as fuck in here. The crowd.was ballistic for the whole grand finals.

FeelsBadMan

 

[SmackAttack]

I'm not a fan of Marvel at all and have no idea what I'm seeing when I watch it but I always do when it's EVO Top 8.

 

[Eidan]

MKX proving why it should come back to evo year after year

Seriously. The game is just amazing.

 

[SDBurton]

Praying so hard for our Lord and Savior to finally win one.

While I would love for ChrisG to win, my heart has been crushed too many times putting my hopes on him.

 

[Parallax Scroll]

CHRIST G VS JESUS WONG

AGAIN

EVERY EVO

 

[Dai101]

Will Chris G finally win Marvel. It is TIME.

I'd ratter Apologyman. Hell, KBR instead of a fucking morridoom team.

 

[Apathy]

Chris G deserves an evo win. hopefully he doesn't mentally break himself up again

Is he still morrigan/doom spamming? Cause if so hope not, thats the shit that made me stop watching marvel

 

[El Sloth]

You can't even hear people clapping and cheering during the winning ceremony.

This is garbage.

Anyway, super hype MKX finals. Well done to SonicFox.

Shame they don't have mics for the crowd. Hopefully the Evo staff responds to the crticisms of the attendees there and viewers at home for a better event next year.

 

[Unlucky]

I'm not a fan of Marvel at all and have no idea what I'm seeing when I watch it but I always do when it's EVO Top 8.

Marvel at EVO rarely disappoints.

 

[Scrub Mcgrubb]

mmmm this Marvel bracket! DELICIOUS!
