Is it me or it looks like the characters' models in MKXI have shorter than usual legs? From the knee down, I mean. That part looks too short.

Scar almost got 3-0'd in the first match of top 8 and then just destroyed everyone the rest of the way, good for him

What sucks about fighting game tourney's finishing so late is that I always want to play afterwards.

Scar choosing to save the D bar for wakeups and not breakaways is what won him that match. Dbar comes back slower when you break away and against a pressure character like Jaqui you always want to have some for when she's walking you down on knockdown.

I would never bet against SonicFox on the first huge tournament after an NRS launch. I would have lost hard, stoekd for Scar.

This reminds me of when Justin Wong kept losing EVO for MvC3. He got it eventually

Sonya's rings are still busted

Thanks for the explanation, I was wondering why he never broke away SF combos

Yep. It's so tempting to breakaway everything on reflex but that meter for getting back up can be so useful. Surprised to see so few rolls though; nearly every one I did see worked well.
At least there's EVO.

Tekken and MK were godlike this weekend with BBCT as added coolness.
Tekken was almost as good as MK11 for me and I don't even play Tekken!
