Pulling out Tails to counter an Eggman. If the stage had been Death Egg's Eye, I would've told people this was Sonic Adventure 2. More seriously, nice job overall. Most of my exposure to STF was single player via the Gems Collection (mostly trying to get Super Sonic), so these videos about the competitive scene are definitely interesting.

As a HUGE Sonic fan it's honestly incredible to see such a forgotten game by the general audience like Sonic the goddamn Fighters make a resurgence in popularity. This is super cool to see! I never thought a competitive scene for this game would form but I guess here we are! Very educational, well structured and just generally entertaining video, INCREDIBLE job to everyone involved! To be a competitive player requires so much hard work and dedication, it's honestly so admirable!! I might actually keep up with the game's competitive scene, this is just so interesting!! Sorry I'm just rambling at this point but again, excellent video, keep up the great work! Yosh o7

Honestly, I know nothing about this game, and have seen little of the video, but I do hope the game becomes popular enough to catch the attention of Sega. Having Sonic consistently be a 3D fighter and making Eggman a playable character in such a manner is wildly interesting to me and I hope the fans get a modern title with all the fan favorite characters.

LOVE the STF content lately!

The first part when they were playing melee and said it was dance of some sort is the realest thing ever. That's what makes fighting games so good that people don't understand yet .

good video but I'm taking it down and suing for defamation, the GGST results you willfully showed were clearly doctored I have nor will I ever lose any game to solarflare, govern yourself accordingly good sir. adieu

Hey! Potentially but honestly if I'm not obsessed with something already it's hard to do this kind of thing. If I end up really liking Sonic Riders maybe, as of now I've never really cared for it personally, but have watched a few videos about the scene. It seems neat, but not sure what I could offer that the Akshon Esports video hasn't.

So Fang is like the even more annoying version of Ness for Sonic the Fighters? And Fang's legal, but not Eggman? We live in a society

as an oklahoman, i too feel chicagos call

Didn't know the game had a competetive scene. Have been playing the game alot in my childhood, that's nice. I would check it out !

I’m curious, what makes Honey uncontroversial, and why did they have her banned to begin with? Was she considered Broken too, or was it just a blanket ban on secret characters?

@DeitySkullKid

3 ай бұрын

Honey was not playable in the original arcade release, and was added back into the Xbox version She's at the same power level as all other normal characters, I think she was just not allowed because until the Xbox arcade port she was completely unplayable She's uncontroversial probably because she just wasn't in the original game, but completed, it's basically just an extra character

@wusstunes

3 ай бұрын

It was just a blanket ban because ranked mode doesn't allow secret characters, and most early tournaments to my understanding mirrored the settings used in ranked mode. (Best of 5 rounds, no barrier regen etc.) Functionally she's basically a hybrid of Knuckles and Amy. Very good character, but not the best.

lmao poor riley

These documentaries are the next step towards the eventual Sonic the Fighters 2.

Why did you have to mention at 10:16 that Rileyscott was unemployed?

Man, crazy how close Eizel came to winning, if only they hadn't input that 3rd jab arm spin they would have probably beaten Solar's Tails and taken the tournament, but to be fair I would have been drained and misinputing by that point, if not well before it, too.

NO FUCKING WAY HE SAID 10:15 UNEMPLOYED TAILS MAIN WTF

omg yes, i loved playing him vs metal Sonic with my siblings when we were younger bc of how cheap they were

Solarflare sure won that tournament against Eizel bearly. Honestly, I was going for Robotnik In till she use the forbidden jutsu, I still wanted her to beat her rival.

The fact that eggman STILL isn't in smash is tragic. I don't care how bad he is, or gimmicky, I'll main him.
