They either don't actually play or are just not very smart

jsmasterlubu3 they don't actually play lol. just a bunch of casuals per usual on videos like these

Nicholas Ortiz true I understand why when I play black canary ppl want to keep me when she's close she's dangerous 50/50 mix ups set ups and damage its smart to keep these characters off you cause once they get close it's hard to get them off you

I agree

Nicholas Ortiz agree its suicidal fighting him head on TBH when he activate his buff ability its armor alll the way fuck that I'll just zone him until that shit wares down

Penumbra fuckin exactly, idk why people argue i mean if bane gets in on lvl3 venom and does something your gone, need to keep him away cuz thats his weakness, but noo "omg sonic is keeping bane away he is spamming"

I guess I could see boring. Personally I think zoning is when the game is most tense. There's mindgames of trying to jump when you think he's gonna shoot, or charge with lvl 2 venom when you think he has a read otherwise. Up close still has the mindgames with stagger and whatnot, but less so. Using a bomb over and over is about the same visually as using a plus string over and over. KP1 Kung lao was string into hat and looped until death. It is a lot more fun to play then to watch though.

The games are so different I don't think it's a fair comparison. The only two characters with projectiles to zone are Eliza and Akuma iirc, so if there was zoning it would only be with those two characters. That and sidestepping exists which nullifies the projectiles really, so you can only throw out one or two. Comparing a 3D fighter and a 2D fighter is like comparing Diablo to Injustice. It's easier to get loot in Diablo so it's a better game.

Zoning is not spam. Red Hood does shit tier damage without meter and bane is one of the most damaging characters in the game with an unblockable. command grab that has great range. Therefor Red Hood has to use his bombs to build meter AND keep Bane at a distance(where he is by far the better character up close) in order to be viable in this match up. Telling sonic to fight at a supreme disadvantage is called being stupid(might as well not use the character). They both are two of the top 10 pros in this game. The reason its so effective for him is because Biohazard(one of the best in this game as well) has to respect all of sonics other capabilities with the character. People were universally disappointed with Red Hood on release. If you want to see lower tiered characters in action at the highest level of competition(which these two guys definitely are) then you better prepare yourself to see them used properly for that purpose

Penumbra so devil jin dont have projectiles with the laser? the tiger is not represented as a projectile? hold up you cant attach guns to characters in tekken? i agree tekken is not a projectile game but a handful of characters can still out zone most of the roster.

Patient Warrior Someone who gets it

Patient Warrior True that

this is true but people complain because he basically does it every game

Patient Warrior so very well said sir

Still boring to watch

Laurenzo Tita agree casuals do nothing but complain I know injustice has more zoning compared to MK and SF but still they complain cause they suck

Buddha BlazerSS spotted a scrub, there are just too many of you guys. . . Get gud scrub.

Exactly. I've seen SO many people complain about SF "spamming" when he wasn't even spamming. Stop playing NRS games and go back to your bullshit Street Fighter.

You could always go with *Newb* aswell, and yes i agree.

Erron Black NERF RED HOOD ALREADY HE'S TOO OP Kappa

Giorno Giovanna No.

Erron Black If anything he needs buffs.

lolnope

NyQuiiL Cold & Flu if anything the abilities need to be implemented in to ranked as well so variations can become a thing in tgis game keeping matches exciting by the loadouts. especially red hood. he has better abilities than his stocks self.

Mikeeey English Doesn't make it any less boring to watch.

spooky cat dude good thing he is a competitor and not a entertainer right?

Liar it's obvious you have no idea what you're talking about they don't play for fans they play for competition because they would play with or without a crowd especially with a high prize pool sonic fox has a fan base because people like a champion a winner and that's what he was unlike the small narrow minded humans like you who focus on his personal choices in life they like what he does in game why you are in so much turmoil over another mans sexuality or choice of life style I.e. Furry is redundant grow up

Liar Daigo is a personality lol yea right... Since you love Daigo so much I'm sure you haven't read his book because In it he states why most EPROs compete. What makes anyone a pro btw in anything is sponsorship and revenue

P.M.E dr fate zone is OP

random stuff But people are like: "OmG, Why is he zoning" I swear man...

Johnathan King a mike Tyson quote

Doesn't make it any less strange

Eric Lopez 18:08 true

Eric Lopez it happens in street fighter as well and even Marvel. don't see why people are complaining.

NyQuiiL Cold & Flu they're complaining because they're noob aka incompetent

Eric Lopez lol right. that's how professional players play, with strategy and knowledge on how to exploit they're opponents weakness. Let these niggas know

Jamall Lee good luck getting through those fucking mines, if the best bane can’t then is not incompetence dumbass

Jeff Jean-baptiste what're his 2 other movesets

Super Jokister the lunge when he pops u up and the one he throws the gun at ur head

The longing pop up one extends his combos and the other one I think is just cool

Jeff Jean-baptiste it's an ability hidden explosives

Jeff Jean-baptiste his abilities are not broken period his mb lungs only works if it hits not to mention raw lunge is unsafe full combo punishable if you're ready to punish its only good because the mb land mine scales damage horribly and his other move is just pointless when you can end your combos with a bomb setup

Just look at Bane when he connects a decent combo; easily 300-400 damage. Biohazard can do a 600 damage combo with his eyes closed.

Much damage!

This is why you zone!! lol

you also have to remember that took 2 bars and level 2 venom

Lol bane has to work hard for his damage, black Adam does the same damage without any of the draw backs

I know the struggle with Grodd as well and i can say that he may have to work a bit harder but his rewards are much higher due to his vortexes and resets

Davy Jones Locker that's exactly what he is. It's power creep in a fighter.

Davy Jones Locker kind of, but also a worse Harley if you ask me

Davy Jones Locker As a bane main and a joker pocket character that's what I been telling myself. joker unfortunately has no wake up options, redhood has amazing wake up options better zoning air projectiles. Why play joker when redhood is here Lol

urenaanthony91 That's what I'm saying lol

Davy Jones Locker but red hood doesn't have 50/50s and Oki setups like The Joker has.

Quayshawn Dameron facts, people just love to hate

Toxic Legend Facts, people like to be entertained. You can say what you want that it was a smart choice since bain does alot of damage up close, but it still is boring to watch.

spooky cat dude "People like to be entertained", First of all, this is a game, watching is not the same as playing it. I guarantee that playing against a similar skill level as you, is anything but boring. And you think Pro gamers give a fuck about being entertaining ? lol Sonic is doing right with his play style, that's why they win big. It's all about character match ups too, if Red hood, would've been pinned against a Batman, Canary, Catwoman or even Robin, it would've been different. You have to be prepared to face any character, and learn to adapt in order to win, plain and simple.

Dude you're clearly in denial...Pro players play to win.They're not here to play a specific way to entertain you lmao. They could give 2 shits about how this video doesn't appeal to you because they're just in it for the money.

You realize they make money off of other things right?

3:07

Garbage Lord shit on? Bio took what seemed like 30-40% of the matches against the best injustice player in the world. Just took some time to settle in

Volcanik True but it's not like red hood is Sonic's main and this is not a pro tourney to go try-hard in, just some unranked private matches.

Garbage Lord he has a lot of bad matchups if they zone the fuck out of him

Bane against anyone with projectiles is a hard match up

Kieran Mahoney I disagree for some cases, against red hood yes you are correct cos his multiple bullets just cut through his armoured special attacks But against projectile users like green arrow the match up ain't too bad if you can control the venom for armour In the end these guys are pros, so they learn to adapt to difficult match ups much quicker than we can >.

ITS CALLED ZONING .. A NECESSARY EVIL ..

Scrub Zero. If that's all you do, it's spamming.

Rynie W there's a difference between spamming and zoning dude. Spamming is when you literally don't know how to do anything but shoot and that's definitely not fox.

no? spamming is doing the same shit again and again and again. which is exactly what sonicfox is doing

I would call this zoning, people act like Sonic some random online player, I play BlazBlue series mainly as a fighter nowadays but as a member of the FGC I can tell the difference. I enjoy watching him play DOA more though. If you bought this game because you don't go indepth with fighters, then I don't blame you for only seeing spam. o;

Jorras1278 you can dash out of back and forward 3

Jorras1278 for 2 bars you can cancel into b3 or f3 by doing db(mb) or df(mb) with no buttons pressed

Memes Are Lyfe Change broken to boring. this character has so much potential drained from him. NRS dropped the ball

Bio was the better player here, but Sonic just had the match-up advantage.

Charlie Infante i think they should nerf other peoples damage.

Jason Wisniewski i think its 3 2

It clearly hit him

Austin Goyne as a bane main he does badly. Red hood's wakeups beat out bane bomb too

Delano Myrie Most of redhood's wakeups aren't invincible tho. You can stuff most of them except the back five. but even that one can be stuffed in the corner. I think you just gotta play a lot more paitient than usual

Too.Modest back five?

Against anybody who's smart enough to keep distance with Red Hood, yes. If you want to be the idiots that complain about zoning and choose not to, then no, Bane will eat them tf up

18:08 when lucks on your side

Flash Is Better Than Supes if he wins with a bane and they switch to a bad match up for him he's not going to be able to switch so he might as well get good at reading them

Flash Is Better Than Supes that's why their practicing
