MK9 Playing To Win [Raiden] -vs- [Kabal] ShinLad Console Combat 21-Aug-2011

[BehindTheLight99]

Yeah, the mispronouncing of the Raiden's name was really brutal to listen to.

[MichaelVarcade]

missPonouncing the name of a charicter in a game that actualy says the name for you is so stupid. The MK games have said "Ray-Deen" forever. All the way back to MK1. How the hell are you still daying "RI-Den"?

[MichaelVarcade]

Not to mention calling Raiden's Torpedo (superman) a "head butt" seriously! Do you even play this game?

[J3l4n]

@MichaelVarcade UltraDavid calls it baboolay and probably knows more about the game than you do. Naow what?

[MichaelVarcade]

@J3l4n he might be better than me at the game. But i doubt he knows more about the game than me,history and story wize

[J3l4n]

@MichaelVarcade This is a video of competitive playing. The lore of the game is irrevelant to it, what matters is knowledge about the mechanics. Aris, one of two commentators at EVO top8 grand finals for MK placed 9th. He knows nothing about the lore of MK and I'm pretty sure he only played through the story mode to unlock Quan and CSZ. I'm sure the commentators on this video know the game. Just not the way you do.

[MichaelVarcade]

Well the Test your might comunity agrees with me. My video on this very subject got put on there front page.

[MichaelVarcade]

@J3l4n Aris said he want MK to do well in the tounament sceen but disrespecting the game by not even respecting the something as simple as the name of a move. .. .well that tells me he does not give a shit about the game. Hes a good gamer, but thats about it

[J3l4n]

@MichaelVarcade I love MK, more than any other fighting game, but I come up with my own names for some specials and characters. I call Quan Chi, Qunchi all the time for example. Don't get me wrong, I see your point and I've watched your video and superman is not a headbutt, but someone who comes from SF why shouldn't call it a headbutt? I always call Hondas headbutt torpedo. I know it's not a torpedo, but I'm an MK player and it looks just like that.

[MichaelVarcade]

@J3l4n there is nothing wrong with fans coming up with there own names. Thats cool. My buddys and i call Quan Chu"Crunchy" and Sector "Sextoy" but if i was on stream doing commentary, i would use the wright names out of respect and to stay profecinal. Think of a foot ball commentater, They use the right names for everything 100 percent of the time. Why should i not expect the same out of someone commentating on something 10 times more simple than football.

[BehindTheLight99]

@J3l4n It's definitely "Ray-den", not "Rye-den"

[J3l4n]

Godlike Raiden is godlike :D .

[lukegf0]

I like that Raiden, but I don't like those omni-present cutouts with the players faces in them. They should only be present during character select.

[sinmortal]

@lukegf0 But when how will you see my shit eating grin when I get torpedo'd the 30th time?
