Top 5 NRS players of all time

[Pig Of The Hut]

Not taking it seriously.

Dizzy isn't in top 10 of mk9 let alone inj and mkx

 

[chores]

this is the most TYM thread in at least the past year

 

[Aqueous_Echo]

Dizzy isn't in top 10 of mk9 let alone inj and mkx

He is to me. That's why 'other' is an option.

This thread is a gimmick lol. No matter who votes for who its still all opinion going against results. Results are concrete. Whoever has top 3 results in three games wins. There can never actually be any opinion to change it.

That's why I'm throwing Dizzy in because whether he is or isn't "top", I'm still just throwing my opinion in the mix. This thread sounds like a well organized prop fish imo.

 

[Indecisive]

I miss these old threads. Hidden Prop fishing everywhere. People being clever about it. Its wonderful. Shade being thrown left and right.

 

[Belial]

So without further delay, I'll announce the top 3 in my opinion.

Sonicfox
DJT
ForeverKing

In my opinion, this is the undebatable top 3

LOL. While definitely not top3 NRS player FK is UNDEBATABLE top in humility.

Idk about that.

MLG Anaheim and Dallas top 8. MLG Arena runner up. Many other major top 8s. 3 smaller major wins(UFGT, VXG, Seasons Beatings). Consistent wins against most of the top guys. His lack of an EVO medal is the only reason it's not a slam dunk.

My MK9 top 10(no order)
PL
REO
CD Jr
DJT
Maxter
Detroit
You
Myself
Tyrant
Dizzy

[ismael4790]

It's funny how a dick measuring thread is labeled as "fighting philosophy".

 

[Slymind]

In all 3 games Sonic, DJT and PIg would be my certain picks, the rest is debatable IMO.

Honorable mention for Tom, very solid player across the board, and a very productive member of this community in terms of finding and sharing tech and knowledge since the very beginning of MK9.

 

[Slymind]

Also, 16 Bit would be my certain pick as well, despite his retirement from tournaments to work on NRS early in MKX;

That Catwoman...

Damn The King can't get into your MK9 top 10 and he made this thread. Damn lol

 

[Invincible Salads]

between Mk9, Igau, and MKX, i feel that these 3 players stood at the top of each respective game.

Mk9: REO
IGAU: Jupiter
MKX: SonicFox

i hope we get an entirely new person thats top dawg for injustice 2 (or rather, have be debateable even) just so long as its not sonic, lol.

Ironically it's because of his own logic. Placing at EVO twice is impressive but outside EVO his 2012 and 2013 weren't good enough. Dizzy didn't place at EVO but he was out placing or even straight up winning events King was at in that period(MLG Dallas, Seasons Beatings, Frosty Faustings, UFGT). King didn't become a consistent placer until after the game winded down and I'm not giving much weight to 2014 majors were the top guys sleep walk into top 8.

REO, Carl, Maxter, DJT, Pig, Detroit, Maxter, and myself are locks. There's no disputing them. Tyrant, Dizzy, King and MIT are the next group. I think the last two spots have to be from that group. After that you have the guys like CD Sr, Tom, Chris G, Wafflez, Cowboy. Guys who peaked late or had drop offs.

I tried but I can't think of a counter argument to this lol. Most of it looks pretty dead on.

Damn. Maxter was so good. You named him twice.

LOLOL I think he meant CD Jr.

Im going to beat some ass in Injustice 2

[Tweedy]

No man, I dont think i was top at MKX. I'd for sure give Madzin the nod as a top player overall though. It doesnt matter if he was a loyalist or not because results matter and not who you used to get them. He also does have quality wins vs top players. IMO, he would have prob never missed a top 8 in the USA if he mained Lasher Takeda, Smoke, etc..

He used both Sub Zero and Lasher at NEC though, and used Lasher a lot on his stream leading up.

It's not like Sub Zero is low tier. Of course he has bad match ups, but if you use another strong character? Idk. The results kind of are what they are.

 

[Vithar]

what about tyrant?

What did he do in Injustice and XL?

 

[16 Bit]

What did he do in Injustice and XL?

In Injustice he had 2 big time top 8s(NEC and MLG) and a top 8 at West Coast War Zone. Supplemented by regular top placings at WNF.

Definitely not a top 10 IGAU player resume but not bad, especially as a oddball character specialist.

There are quite a few people with more''top8'' than him in Inj and his MKXL accomplishments ?
Not hating on Tyrant ... but definitely not top 5 NRS .... even you were better

That's why I brought it back

I can respect this reasoning. I would Dizzy before me and Tyrant for sure honestly

 

[Yer_Da]

Sonic, DJT and MIT are top three, I'd say that's undisputable, if we're counting all three games.

The last two are tricky but I'm going to go for REO and WoundCowboy. The only other one that even gets a look in is Pig of the Hut.
