How to defeat SonicFox

Eddy Wang · May 7, 2015

Sonic is just awesome, you gotta love how he doesn't give a fuck and just goes in there to make you wonder "why i left my wife and kids"
Kid's awesome, i knew it since the day i saw his first MK9 match with Mileena, no one believed him though.

How to beat SonicFox at a major: when he's old enough to drink, buy him 15 rounds of tequila and tell him top 8 starts at 10 pm.

And the other 25% think he lucked into all of his wins.

24%
I'm the 1% that doesn't give a fuck about "famous" people and respect people's achievements for what they are. Guy's good. Doesn't mean he's unbeatable. Perfect Legend is good too. So is REO, Tom Brady and probably at least twenty more players on that level. If somebody wants to be that good, do work.

Well, there you have it, guys. Who knew it was that simple? Your reign of terror is over, Sonicfox! We've figured out the secret to beating you! Might as well retire, bruh.

When I first saw you pick Shinnok my exact thoughts were, "Is he trying to lose?" Then you started playing and you're actually pretty damn legit. Those games were definitely a lot closer than whats 3-0 suggests.

I know right. If the connection was legit, I would stand a chance to beat him. Everyone was hope for me to win but I could not get the job done because the netcode sucks balls.

Just watching several of Sonix Fox's other matches he nearly always has one common theme: He places this opponent into the corner and KEEPS them there. Very similar to his gameplay as Batgirl, he'd play around with the neutral until he could push them into the corner and just wreck with 50/50 after 50/50.

Exactly as 16 bit said, slow down the neutral game and focus heavily on the spacing. Watch his matches at BG against StarCharger's CW

Star charger controls the spacing incredibly well and SonicFox gets impatient.

The other key element that people look over is METER MANAGEMENT. Hold onto meter only for armor and breaker. Unless punishing of course.

I feel your pain main, especially with my college connection, I'm lucky to get a yellow connection. My friends and I were so hype when you took a game of SonicFox, with SHINNOK nonetheless.

If only Goro had the Ermac meter gain glitch, then this would be legit. :DOGE

Slow down the pace of the match and regulate the space he likes to work in. Figure out the most efficient ways to do that, e.g. find an option that cover both advancing normals and run. Make him feel uncomfortable in the neutral and he will take unnecessary risks. Very few have the ability to do that and that's why he's so strong.

I mean.....Why do you think he wants subzero nerf??

16bit is right...
Also maybe someone who takes notes and stuff could study his 50/50s... There are patterns there and things he always does... Its not really guessing but knowing...

Of course, every player has their own tendencies and once they are figured out this will force the player to slow down and think a bit more. Btw I always read your name as Saint Op Semen, no reason why.

The Blue print has been laid out, folks!

I want to see him vs a top level Sub Zero. He made a minor complaint about it but maybe he's figured it out?

He's good, but not unbeatable.

I dont think its a character thing either. I like my chances :16Bit
We'll see in Burbank I guess

That would actually be a really dope matchup imo

REO this is your fault since you've never played with erron black. How dare you.
