I heard what Fabz said. I will say it out loud. 500 dollars extra on my dime if you win next season and beat Kani Mani! Edit: I know this is confusing, so will clarify. Wasn't sure if Fabz is, but I am totally serious. I will pay out of my own pocket 500 dollars extra directly to the winner as long as it isn't Kani - with the caveat that you have to defeat Kani to earn it. Kani has to be there, playing his A game. Beat him? Extra money for you.
watching it now, it's CRAZY how nervous I was vs Fireaxe lol. I consider myself experienced enough to handle my nerves and seeing myself SO shook is wild
You were dealing with a literal Saiyan. Kid keeps getting stronger every time. You, Roe & FireAxe might be the only ones who have a chance to dethrone Kani If FireAxe finds a way to compose himself mid-match, y’all are fucked
Roethor vs Hodie battle: I find that the reason Jax worked so well, is because Roether didn't have to fixate on finding the mix, which Hodie is very well-known for guessing right on most of the time. Jax allowed Roether to focus on the hit confirm, which, even though Hodie does have insane defense, everyone gets hit eventually. Sick battles to watch, the best MK1 content creators! Thank you, for always putting on a good show, everyone! 😊❤🎉
This tournament had a great showcase of characters and talent. Quan Chi, Ermac, Scorpion, Homelander, Takeda, Sindel. It wasn't a Johnny or Peacemaker fanfest. Great stuff.
It’s amazing to hear R1ps constant appreciation for the community. R1ps you’re such a wholesome guy and we really appreciate your incredible energy. Sending good witch energy your way my man. 🧙♀️ 🧙♀️
He's the only pro pro player that plays these. Nothing against him, get the easy coin. But imagine if u did have dyloch, sonic, ninja, rewind, or mighty unjust lol
At this point, and I think I speak for everyone, we need the intervention of a titan on the level of Kanimani to stop his reign of terror! And the only ones that come to mind right now are the Chilean twins: Scorpionprocs and Nicolas, NinjaKilla, Xombat, or the king of Mortal Kombat himself, Sonicfox! I know it’s difficult to arrange, but maybe at least I could try to convince Xombat or the Chilean twins! Anyway, right now within the roster of fighters in the arena, the only ones I see with a chance in the future are the young prodigies of the arena: Merkurich, Obunga, and Figg. Forgive me and correct me if I'm wrong about the names of these last two, but they are very new to me, and I'm speaking from memory! Greetings Dennis, sending you a kiss from the bottom of my heart because I love the passion you bring to the arena, and just so you know on Twitch, I am FayeJinxTheSnakeEyes.
Amazing finale guys! You and the players deserve so much more. The best entertainment ever. I can't wait for more, thanks to rips, fabz, and all the people behind the scenes and guest commentary and the amazing community that always shows crazy support. Awesome 👌
The only way someone other than Kani will win this is if the big boys from the US join and/or The Twins. HourGlass, MightyUnjust, Xombat, Rewind could maybe take Kani (no way Sonic or Ninja are competing in an online European event). Roethor at his best could maybe, maybe take Kani, but Roethor never gets to the final. Shoutout Hodie who played brilliantly well, but never really had a chance against the AI. Another great season R1ps, Fabzz, all of the players & the rest of the team.
If Fabzz shines a flashlight on R1ps's chrome dome, his bald head will amplify the light into a columnar hydrogen bomb which will tear through the galaxies far beyond and pierce countless plants in unfathomably distant parts of reality.

Im in my 40s, i spent my youth terrorizing arcades as a little kid compared to most. You would put your quarter on the machines bottom of the screen , older kids would laugh and flick it up so i couldnt grab it. They learned to respect… Street fighter 2 champion, mk 1 was slowwww 2 was more funnn, killer instinct and ki2 superrrrr fastn fun.. I lived it. Now im watching this, havent seen games for 20 years… HOly heck this is ridiculously fast and insane graphics, you kids got it made 😂😂😂😂😂😂❤ fun to watch!
Unless someone gets A LOT better or we get an amazing new comer next season, I don't see anyone beating Kanimani. Hodie, Roethor, MKJavier, Kitanakahn etc. are out of this world but Kani is so far ahead, it's insane.
Many people says thats its boring to see kanimoney wins again! 1st of all anyone who can beat him go for it! 2nd where was dyloch justnasty faysal vgy arnkratos and many more! Kanimoney is so consinstant who deserves the win! And btw i dont even know the guy!
I love this game and the diferrence between casuals and pros if huge, but for the viewer I feel like two touch rounds watching 25 seconds of combos is not the way Give us some combos, give us some strings, but don't make us feel scared to press some buttons
God of Destruction reigns again 😅 Tell me,.. is there anyone in the entire world 🌍 that can take out this Titan? 🤔... That remains to be seen. Ggs to all who went out on a limb or two in this tourney and gave it their all to get one step 🪜 closer to becoming champion 🏆 of Season 9 Top 64 Once again Kanimani, you've earned the spotlight once more 👏👏👏👏👏👏😄
Mkjavier got stomped by kani and roethor, so satisfying to watch. Was hoping hodie wouldve won against kani as kani has won too many and itd be nice to see someone else win for once.
Idk how kani was able to 3:0 literally everyone, is it insane to me how we see Roether Hodie Javier trying so hard fighting against each other and just end up getting destroyed when they face Kani.
@tygersen7513 if all of them played Homelander, Kani would still win, because he's the better player. He also beat Roethor on Peacemaker earlier in the finals. It's not the character, it's the player. Even so, in the overall final, I wouldn't mind if it was a Homelander mirror, if both players felt that was the best way to win. Was Sonicfox carried by Johnny Cage at Pro Komp? No, he was just better than Nicolas. Finally, Kani isn't there to entertain; he's there to win 1k. Why should he handicap himself when money is on the line?
Listen R1ps you know me I love EU.. EU is filled with sharks!! And EU are always down to fight. But the sharks in NA are straight divas. Which is the problem I have.. The guys who are actually on Kani's level won't FIGHT!! Which is the biggest problem!!!
To be fair, its alot of grinding just to even qualify, then, at most, you're winning 1k (when the prize pool is broken down) for some of them. That's not worth the time and effort
Kanimani is the RIPS Arena king 👏🏾 He needs to stop hiding under that EU wing and go play & win against the best in the world, in the major tournaments & maybe he might get some respect! Until then Sonic/Ninja/Twins etc are truly the best to ever play the game!
31:15 how did he do a jab into the flying command grab? It doesn't work like. Plus the flying grab into ferra. I keep trying to do these things and nothing is working 😂 howwww
@@diamondcutz1499Even with Ferra no, he does not deserve anything. That Scorpion scum is the most conceited and boring player in the arena. His whole playstyle resolves around backing up and tech blocking. Once he can't tech anything he is basically a free win.
You dont need a spoiler shield the timestamps pretty much tell you what the score will be in each set and the fact kanimani wins the last game cos there isnt 2 games left

GGs brother
Ur ermac is scary ❤️🔥
Bro u should always use the ermac shield
You were dealing with a literal Saiyan. Kid keeps getting stronger every time. You, Roe & FireAxe might be the only ones who have a chance to dethrone Kani
If FireAxe finds a way to compose himself mid-match, y’all are fucked
You had an amazing run man. I enjoyed watching you.
I’d love to see you and Rewinds Ermac go at it!
Watching Roethor playing Quan Chi is a literal work of art
True
No it's annoying😂 I swear it's that kind of gameplay that makes me hate quan chi. Just running away the whole time spamming cage and portals
Really glad that I discovered R1ps this year, this is some of the best MK1 content out there right now. Now pleeeaaassseee take a vacation R1ps 😅😅😅😅
Facts
Nah. No vacation for bald man. We need another season of this stuff🤩
Next title for the Arena Finals will be: "Can 63 players beat Kanimani, for 2000€? Let's find out!"
We will appreciate this game when it's gone
🤡
man honestly i just ignore the hatred, we can appreciate and enjoy it now
True bro @@blindwoozie
I love it NOW brother!!
@RacerNinght86 now it's better than ever
You gotta feel for Hodie. Being best of the rest and losing only to Kani.
That Ermac is great but Kani is Kani
Yeah cheap
If they wanted to patch it they would’ve , atleast ermac has a slight execution barrier
Kani is cheap, lame, and ruining this event by making it insanely boring
@@leojs5673just say he’s incredibly skilled
@@leojs5673nah bro. He is talented and can play with various characters. Altho i was rooting for Hodie myself.

Kanimani is using DLC character to win lol 😂
Well played Hodie! ❤
Hodie also uses a DLC character 😂

Haven't watched but i'm sure Kanimani won
Yup
Duah🤨
Watching Kanimani win feels like the chiefs winning the superbowl, it's getting old and boring, I can assure you that he is going to win next season
Bro just taking advantage of being the best. He’s fr a monster. 😅
We just need to call ninja or sonic for him 😂
Ninja isn't playing that much anymore,sonic is the only one i bet my money on(or nicolas)@@loverboiitay
@@loverboiitayna the Chilean twins will deal with him very quickly. Will even call Sikander
He's the only pro pro player that plays these. Nothing against him, get the easy coin. But imagine if u did have dyloch, sonic, ninja, rewind, or mighty unjust lol
We need Ninja or Sonic in the arena. I really just want see somebody fold Kanimani 😂
Hodie Vs Fireaxe, I can feel the nerves of both of them watching them😂

Hodie was joy to watch and Roethor will always be my favorite
Watching from Ghana. Hodie is so much fun to watch.
What a finale. Thank you for a fantastic season!
BEEN WAITING FOR THIS
Im in my 40s, i spent my youth terrorizing arcades as a little kid compared to most.

I learned Ermac because of Hodie!!! BEST Ermac in the World!!
Unless someone gets A LOT better or we get an amazing new comer next season, I don't see anyone beating Kanimani.
Hodie, Roethor, MKJavier, Kitanakahn etc. are out of this world but Kani is so far ahead, it's insane.
Or maybe a top ten NA player lol
Hats off to this community y’all are amazing!
Many people says thats its boring to see kanimoney wins again! 1st of all anyone who can beat him go for it! 2nd where was dyloch justnasty faysal vgy arnkratos and many more! Kanimoney is so consinstant who deserves the win! And btw i dont even know the guy!
Let’s go! So excited to watch these fights…. Always watch everyday, every video! Much love Rips & Fabs! ❤

I love this game and the diferrence between casuals and pros if huge, but for the viewer I feel like two touch rounds watching 25 seconds of combos is not the way Give us some combos, give us some strings, but don't make us feel scared to press some buttons
they should make it ft5
Yeah I'm coment number 3 😁 LOL Love Mortal Kombat and greatly respect and appreciate RIPS the Bald Legend. 🎉
God of Destruction reigns again 😅
Tell me,.. is there anyone in the entire world 🌍 that can take out this Titan? 🤔... That remains to be seen. Ggs to all who went out on a limb or two in this tourney and gave it their all to get one step 🪜 closer to becoming champion 🏆 of Season 9 Top 64
Once again Kanimani, you've earned the spotlight once more
👏👏👏👏👏👏😄
Timing is impeccable 🎉
You and Fabz are legends, keep doing what you doing guys.
Gz kanimani and gz to other amazing players also
Idc who it is... I ALWAYS want to see Ermac on the throne.
Kanimani é incrível !
my heart was going for almost every match! Ty R1pz
Every set is one of the craziest sets for RIPs 😂😂😂
Glad kanimani took my advice on the Homelander pick. Let’s go.
Greatest ever tournament created by greatest ever organizers and embraced by greatest ever players Signing off Mudumbi Arun
thank you!!! amazing matches!

Mkjavier got stomped by kani and roethor, so satisfying to watch. Was hoping hodie wouldve won against kani as kani has won too many and itd be nice to see someone else win for once.
Idk how kani was able to 3:0 literally everyone, is it insane to me how we see Roether Hodie Javier trying so hard fighting against each other and just end up getting destroyed when they face Kani.
Yeah true. Javier still got 4th and got paid while he's living in your head rent free.
99% of the time I won’t root for Roethor but when it comes to Grand finals I wouldn’t mind seeing him take the crown for the arena. Kids got talent
Ходи - красавчик! Так держать!
That Quan chin suit is popping...Rips😂❤❤❤❤❤
Kani is really unbeatable
any pro can be unbeatable when they playing with the milkman
@tygersen7513 isn't Homelander available to all of the players?
@@tyrannosaurus696 yeah. so you want to play against homelander in every set? would you have enjoyed the tournament if all of them played Homelander?

@TheDucky101 If that's true, then we will keep seeing the same results bro.
@RacerNight86 i mean I don't disagree lol I just dial in when I know my faves are playing. But I always know who's gonna win the big one
HYPEST FINALS EVER
Amazing matches and can we please grant Kani some shame, so he can have a bit of it whenever he decides to play Lamelander and Ferra again.
Would love him to play a more enjoyable character rather than lamelander
@ Yeah, he s so talented he would probably win with any character.
Kanimani is the RIPS Arena king 👏🏾
He needs to stop hiding under that EU wing and go play & win against the best in the world, in the major tournaments & maybe he might get some respect!
Until then Sonic/Ninja/Twins etc are truly the best to ever play the game!
Roethor vs Mk Javier was the best fight for me. gg
Roethorr 🎉🎉
That first match was crazy 😅
was peak i was nervous asf vs hodie tho LLL
kanimani vs sonicfox ft10 set !!! LETS MAKE IT HAPPEN
If rewind didnt exist, i think hodie is the best ermac.
I will be coming for kanimani very soon , he should get ready
Grats again Kani!
W commentary
1st set was HYPE 🔥🔥
WHAT AM I SAYING ALL SETS WERE HYPE 🔥🔥
Homelander is still broke his old low half screen laser is just a mid now & he still has so many mix ups
Damn i was rooting for roethor and mkjavier
Hodie the best Ermac!!!
Tht Roether tactical gameplay is nowhere in the entire world ...!!! The Best but Kani is just a master
Anyone know how to get the black white and gold skin for Ermac that Hodie had?
Sweet. Kanimani won again. Let’s start the next season. Spoiler Alert: Kanimani wins again. Don’t tell R1Ps.
Well, Mkjavier well deserved got tbagged for his huge ego 🤗❤
Just can say gg mkjavier 😶😶😶🔥🔥🔥👍👍👍
I have to say it, i personally think kanimani is the best homelander and better than mkjavier imo🙏🏻
Hodie struggles when there’s pressure
15
15
90 is crazy to me
31:15 how did he do a jab into the flying command grab? It doesn't work like. Plus the flying grab into ferra. I keep trying to do these things and nothing is working 😂 howwww
Javier got cooked 😭
Getting "cooked" against Kani doesn't really count though. It would be like having a boxing match against Jesus: one loses but does it really count?
@@TryingcountsIt does when $2,000 is on the line
@@Tryingcounts he got cook stfu
Can Kanimani beat sonic fox? 🧐
He got cooked by Kani and then Roethor and I was loving it 😂
We need to see kanimani vs sonicfox again
We might need to consider banning kani from tournaments! 😂 awesome season again!
The sausage still made me think of you R1ps. (KannarmGaming)
Something needs to be done about Homelander
55:55 spot the american 😂
KANIMANI IS THE BEST 🥶
Kani needs to play against ninja or sonic
17:48 yeah, takedas throw range is shorter then most
Aztec is an arena champion from NA.
That's true, but it was a 2v2 side "league".
so much sindel 🤢
If Kani picked any other character Hodie would've won
Who else knew Mr skibidi toilet was gonna be a manace
Rips arena need a youngmoster ashra to give balance to that kani
Mkmidvier failing as always
Nah bro b3 ferra takes a lot of skill. Gotta give him credit.

Y’all just hating cuz you’ll never be as good as him
@@plugzfordayz2579 I mean I beat him in ranked a few months ago. Never giving him a rematch tho
