Dominique McLean / SonicFox - I'M GAAAAAAAYYYY

[CIA Nigger]

Memo is probably right that his account is gonna get shut down, considering that's what happened to one of the last people to criticize SF, Trilllizard (the "kung pow penis" guy

I once saw a shitposter on Twitter call shitting on blue ticks the online version of grabbing an officer's service pistol. At best you're guaranteed a visit to Twitter jail, and at worst you'll lose your account (which happens a lot). To add to that he has an army of underage and troon furries ready to report anyone who dares mock their favorite e-celeb.

Skullgirls is still a really good fighting game and imo if this obnoxious faggot being in the game is enough to make you stop playing it, you're every bit the thin-skinned pussy bitch that the SJWs crying about gamers being meanies are

To be fair, Skullgirls has been on a downfall player count wise ever since it came out. Console versions had dead online modes and Steam has only had around 200ish players before the Evo announcement, now it's at around 400ish.

>incels
incels could give 2 fucks about some furry man

Have you forgotten these days terms that meant to label certain people are now insults to just throw at each other while losing all meaning of said word.

Anyways with Skullgirls while I still like the game overall but honestly after hearing Sonicfox and his fanboys/goons starting to shit up the game and some extension the community along with the other stuff @Slamerella said regrading the game I makes me glad I grew up and enjoy fighting games mostly in a vacuum and never touch anything about FGC until later years because anyone who welcomes people like this guy in open arms especially since people and companies see him as untouchable when it comes to criticism. I probably just avoid the game along with the community that comes with it.

Also good to see that there are people who are willing to push back when it comes to him though I wouldn't be surprised if this got remove somehow.

Something I was talking about is how presence matters about how you are in a game rather than how you are as a person. People mostly talk about SonicFox for "the wrong reasons", aka, the reasons that you'd talk about a person who plays fighting games. It's how they act, how they behave, and how they present themselves but barely ever how they play. Even LTG can be good.... at times. Even Dark Syde Phil has taken some victories. When people talk about how SonicFox's playstyle, usually people talk about how he's a corner creep, always getting people in unfavorable situations thanks to just pelting away and making sure they never get to play. He's a zoner, a pressure point player, and the only real way to beat him is to be better than him, by knowing how to counter that, and then he has nothing.

Compare this to Justin Wong, Daigo Umehara, and Chris G. Wong is an amazing Marvel 2 player and both Wong and Chris are amazing MVC3 players. One of THE hypest sets ever was UMVC3 Losers Semis in 2013. Both shared a similar story: They dominated their games so hard that more people feared playing against them and the audience didn't like them. They were heels. But the difference is that both of them came from differing game backgrounds. Chris had a Smash career, and Justin Wong played just about any fighter but played mostly Capcom ones, notably Street Fighter, and even detested MVC3 for a while, showing how quick he is to adapt to a new setting. Chris G plays three characters in UMVC3 that have extremely differing playstyles which shows how versatile he is.

SonicFox has had the same motive and gameplan and plays many characters who have easy to spam and pressure projectiles. Whether it's Dragon Ball FighterZ where he constantly pressures you with zoning tools with Hit's long distant punches, or using Erron Black's guns, he's just a shitter who has only won big majors through the infancy of a game or games that benefit his playstyle. When a game doesn't, such as Soulcalibur, he stops because he keeps losing because nothing suits his play style.

From Liquipedia, even his own stats show how bad he is and how much he cares about fighting games he can't easily win at. Street Fighter V is immensely popular and Tekken has a sizeable pool of people joining. These results look awful when you get down to it. And let's not forget his Glass Joe record against SMUG in 2019 in SFV.

You think he will do well in Them's Fightin' Herds?

 

[Disco Inferno]

I give it a year before he has an etika level meltdown. All the pieces are in place and all it'll take is one sponsor getting tired of his bullshit.
Gonna sound moralfaggy, but I really hope he has a third party managing and investing his finances.

God, I would LOVE to see a sponsor to pull out. Not only will he have an etika like meltdown, but Him, his fans and the FGC will blame the sponsor of being homophobic/transphobic/furphobic/non binary phobic/albeist/being haters. It'll be a shitstorm of biblical levels.

EDIT-avoiding double posting.

 

[MarineTrainedTard]

Yeah once he can't play mk at a competitive level anymore and becomes completely irrelevant, he's gonna have an amazing meltdown I'm pretty sure

More like fully trooning out. I've been confident on that ever since he started his "theymer" and wearing poorly applied makeup on his greasy face along with badly fitting clothes.

And not sure, CURRENT YEAR "nerd culture" has stuff like deer "girls" and tranny shit. The only real thing would be him getting outed as a zoophile or being a sexual creep (a thing people talked about earlier in the thread and rumors and such)
And well he's always got momny and daddy. He definitely comes of as a semi-upper class coddled kid from some comfy sburb that desperately wants that sweet opression points.

You sound like the kid at the arcade who starts crying when he loses to Dhalsim because "zoning is cheating".

I've said it a hundred times in this thread and I'll say it a hundred more - pretending SonicFox is bad at fighting games when he's been a champion time and time again and continues to perform well only makes you look like the autist. He's very good at them. It's literally everything else about this goddamned retard that makes him a supreme lolcow. Stop trying to autistically tear down the only thing this loser is actually good at.

Yes, please tell me, someone who has played fighting games of various kinds how I think and feel about fighting games. It's a fucking video game. And even then, the idea that someone does good = they're never bad means that DSP was actually good at Super Street Fighter 2 Turbo despite exploiting a bug in a busted port of the game. It sounds like you don't even know how fighting games operate, so you don't even realize what his play style is and why it makes him a bad player. Once you break him down, SonicFox is so predictable that it's not even funny.

You think he will do well in Them's Fightin' Herds?

That's honestly a good question that I can't answer as I have no interest in it. I've looked at a few clips of the game and it just looks a bit too random and in your face with effects that I can't tell what's going on most of the time. I wouldn't say hectic or chaotic. Maybe confusing? Maybe it's also because the game has nothing but quadruped fighters so I'm not used to seeing what the hell is going on. What type of light attack does a horse have when getting hit by any part of it hurts like hell? It's a cointoss on how he'll perform, really.

Personally I love to watch KI so Evo Online is cool with me. There’s an excellent (nothing‘s certain) chance that Sonic takes both Skullgirls and MK titles. Be honest, we are all gonna watch the coverage with snacks and autistically shitposting on Twitch anyway

Man if SonicFox is representing the LGBT community, I'd say Westboro Baptist is gonna have a healthy congregation for many years to come.

All the people saying this have furry icons and at least 1000+ hours in one game. As for the LGBT thing, there's been a push both inside and outside the fandom to label anyone who mocks furries as an Anti-LGBT alt-right turbonazi..

 

[BrunoMattei]

This is pretty much what I was talking about when I said he was building up his brand with his antics and gay nonbinary furry image. Most esports "athletes" are interchangeable unless they're also streamers, have a name you can make fun of, market themselves like Fatal1ty did, or do crazy shit for attention like SonicFox does. SonicFox markets himself to an audience where attention whoring is encouraged and builds clout. The fact that his sprite has a hidden trans flag in it cements it, because it signals to a very specific audience with that move.

If you look at the replies on his tweet advertising his inclusion in Skullgirls there's 3 demographics. There's other FGC people who see being included in a game as "making it". There's furries happy "one of them" got their fursona in a game. And then there's commie troons (who overlap with furries).

The problem is of course Skullgirls isn't exactly the hottest fighting game right now and aside from the initial hype hasn't exactly been popular. The only reason it got into Evo was because literally every offline game tournament got canceled because of WuFlu and all the other fighting games happen to have shitty online netcode that makes them less than suitable for pro level online play. This included pretty much all the big hits (which were regulated to exhibition play this year), while only 4 games have high level play this year: Skullgirls, Killer Instinct, MK11, and Them’s Fightin’ Herds (a MLP fangame without the branding). The real test is will Skullgirls last after this passes.

Skullgirls will still be a dead game after this shitshow.

Well the game is pretty fast from what i've seen and played. Even though it shares the same engine as Skullgirls resets for combos aren't really a thing anyone does. The 2 top tiers are a puppet character with unblockables and a rushdown character with crazy fast airdashes for instant overheads. Everyone else is also decent, save for the pure zoner.
I'm not too familiar with fighting games either, so maybe you can assess SF's proficiency here better than i can?

 

[FrigginWeeb]

Yeah once he can't play mk at a competitive level anymore and becomes completely irrelevant, he's gonna have an amazing meltdown I'm pretty sure

He will still have the "im a gay furry uwu" shit so he would be able to do what the rest of them do, and live entirely off of gofundme/patreon/kofi/whatever

 

[Slamerella]

Sounds like a character he'll play. Puppet characters are genuinely my biggest annoyance in fighting games, ironic considering I play literally half the cast in JoJoban/Heritage for the Future

“What About [Shitty People Within the Furry Fandom]?”
They exist (sadly), but most of them hide their shitty nature from the rest of us because they know we won’t accept or tolerate their behavior. Unfortunately, the existence of shitty people in any meaningfully large group of people is inevitable.

BULL. FUCKING. COCK.

This whole article is so goddamn fucking mush-mouthed I don't even know where to begin, but if they really think anybody believes this self policing shit works and won't quickly discover the amount of covering up the community does for its in-party darlings, they're in for one rude ass awakening as more dogfuckers and pedophiles get outed and more Rainfurrests repeat themselves.

Real fucking smart move there, broadly sweeping under the LGB curtain AGAIN to try to deflect criticism. I can't imagine that won't bite you in the ass down the line, no sir.

I can state for certain that this isn't true. Furries talk big about not tolerating pedophiles and dogfuckers, but in every instance where they discover one in their midst, they do a coverup.

And I can understand why. Without getting too deep into powerlevel, when you find out that a person who's been in your social circle for a long time and is well-loved by everybody is doing things that are inarguably evil, it seriously sucks. Outing the person, removing them, and telling everybody why is always the right thing to do, but it's also the most difficult thing to do by a long shot. Once you stand up holding everybody's favorite buttfox by the shirt collar and yell "YOUR FAVORITE BUTTFOX RAPED A CHILD, I HAVE EVIDENCE, HE IS NO LONGER ONE OF US" you've just ruined everybody's day and possibly week. On top of that, it's very likely to get worse as everybody becomes suspicious of each other and rumors start to float around that it was all a setup and people start mumbling that maybe the child consented after all and other nasty shit.

Doing this will very likely sign your group's death warrant. If this group is your only circle of social connections and it took forever to find all these people because nobody else tolerates your presence because you're a manchild who jerks off to cartoon animals, it can be very hard to think rationally about what you should do. Do you out a pedo and watch your group tear itself apart in front of you until you're a friendless nobody once more, or do you put your head between your knees and tearfully mutter "don't rock the boat" over and over until the guilt goes away?

Of course, once you make a decision -- consciously or otherwise -- to do the latter, you're trapped. If someone else finds out that you're covering for a pedo, it's over for you. You have to commit to it; you have to put on your biggest smile and pretend that absolutely nothing is wrong whatsoever, and you have to silence anybody saying anything to the contrary. You also have to cover up any other signs of heinous behavior in your group, because if anybody sees anything bad happen and becomes suspicious, they'll eventually find out what you've done for the same reason, every whistleblower must be removed on sight. Your single decision to cover for a close friend becomes a community-wide policy of pretending that every community member is a precious angel, that absolutely nothing bad ever happens, that anybody saying anything to the contrary is a loser troll, and that any evidence of wrongdoing is a forgery probably created by loser trolls.

If you see any parallels to the Catholic Church's policy of covering for active pedophiles for decades, there's absolutely a parallel with the Catholic Church's policy of covering for active pedophiles for decades. When a prominent community figure does something horrible, doing the right thing will doom the community, and it's much, much easier in the short run to just cover up, be corrupt, and smile about it. Corruption smiles.
