I don’t think people know how impressive this really was Hitting combos and fatal blows at the same time blindfolded is unreal that’s a talent if you ask me Takes a lot of muscle memory
As someone who hoops and knows how important muscle memory is.....this is some damn impressive shit. He knows the sounds of everything and memorized the timing of these combos
I think the restraint was the most impressive part to me. Jumps are super loud in this game I noticed, but instead of anti-airing every time SF heard them they seem to default to just blocking high because they didn't know if it was going to whiff from a bait or cross-up and they'd eat a punish. They made a really smart choice based on missing information rather than just swinging and hoping for the best which I feel like most players would have done in this situation. Drilling muscle memory for a fighting game, a sport, or playing complex pieces of music, yeah that's definitely commendable as a skill, but having to improvise that muscle memory and choose in the moment which things you practiced you want to use right this second - when a cue you're usually reliant on is gone - that's what masters do.
Yeah, but I guess by pulling a Frank Dux to make it happen after a year of talking that ish and sharping his skills. I see nothing about what he been tweeting about here. I guess any publicity is good publicity?🫤🤷
So much respect for the growth that Waka has had over the years and for him to be where he is doing stuff like this instead of still being in teh streets.
Met Waka when he was here at a beach in Barbados at the height of his career. We were in our latter teens and the guy was so chill and nice, took pics with everyone who came up to him without fuss even as he was out taking a stroll with his then partner. He will be an asset to the scene.
If you really think about it, makes perfect sense that he can do this. He plays so much, and is so skilled, he can visualize the movements in his head. After a while that shit gets burned in on your brain. Still very impressive tho, considering MK1 is new.
Just saw waka flocka live at a music festival last week, super chill guy. I’m surprised to see this duo but honestly it doesn’t surprise me he was a good sport about it!
Not necessarily defending the practice, but it's extremely common to reuse minor assets such as sound bits. Saves time and money. Only true fans are gonna be able to tell anyway.
The fact that sonic can combo without looking at the screen just based off sound… this dude is built different. I ain’t never seen nothing like this in my life, I’m convinced he’s the goat in this mortal kombat sh now
Bro what is this timeline, Waka Flocka went from being a Blood to a gangsta rapper to a farmer to competing in MK tournaments lmao, I love it. What a legend, living his best life.
As a black guy that grew up in the hood.i love seeing rappers go from rap to doing things that are not negative and staying out of trouble.much respect to waka
WTF are you talking about? Rap doesn't have to be negative. There's plenty of rappers that don't rap anything negative. You sound like a very old white woman who doesn't know anything about rap. So just going by stupid stereotypes she sees in the media. The fact you start off with "I'm a black guy from the hood" makes you suspect. Who the F does that matter to?
I absolutely HATE “as a…” posts. Nobody cares dude. I swear, the most average people on earth walk around as if they’re main characters lol. Again, absolutely NO ONE cares
@@chiarosuburekeni9325 in reality the huge majority of people using "as a" isn't what they say they are. Mostly it's mentally ill white men who do this sh!t. They pretend to be a different race or female. The one's who truly have no life will post a random person's pic in their avatar of the race or gender they're pretending to be. F'N loser's
That's what they said he will do in the video. It's because not being able to see is hard already but if you're not even able to know what way you're looking there's no shot at winning.
So…the guy holding onto Fox’s shoulder. He’s feeding him information. For someone who plays fighting games for a living, there’s not a lot of information needed to pull this off. Audio cues, and controller vibrations tell you a lot, but the guy holding his shoulder can tell him about spacing depending on which shoulder he holds, how tight he grips his shoulder, and something as simple as tapping his shoulder is a good way to relay info. He’s also talking to him mid match. Wakka got scammed lol
I used to beat my family members and friends in killer instinct one-handed because there's a lot of combos you could do with just the left trigger. On super Nintendo. It never crossed my mind to play someone blindfolded😮
I been waiting for this match since I heard Waka saying he was gonna beat fox. I'm thinking bruh this guy is really smoking som good ish. That ish Katt Williams was talking about in his stand up. 😂
Impressive, but as a blind MK 1 player, why didn't he just use the accessibility features built in to the game that were made for the blind? I have no sight whatsoever, and I bet he could have done with just the audio cues. Also, that commentator said blind people couldn't anti-air what they can not see, and I'm here to tell you... we totally can just by hearing it.
crazy thing is there are a ton of accessibility features in mk1 he could have turned on, clicks and bleeps that signify different things that, as a true full-blind player, I use. He didn't even use those things! Respect.
And also if I am right, by the sounds of things he wasn't using headphones, well, yeah, no, I couldn't play it without those. Sonic fox is a true master.
If it was pro vs pro, sure. Probably the best pro at mk1 vs a solid to good casual player isn't all that crazy. Especially with how he uses Kenshi's move set. He can figure out where you are pretty easily whether he connects or not.
@@kingsylvester6337 Yes but those people are BLIND. Thats totally different from someone who uses their eyes every second of the day while playing fighting games and doesn't even practice playing with a blindfold on. Then to confidently come to a tournament or any set and beat their opponent is wild. I wouldn't even pick up the sticks ever again after a loss like that lmfao
Back again to get some stick for asking for a pin 😅
It looks like you're wish has been granted.
As a Kenshi Main i also do this every game😄
Pause, U back again to get some Stick?!! ⏸️😂
@@DHoodRealer there we go 🤣
Is it everything you dreamed it would be?
Waka flocka was honestly such a good sport, this set is sure to go down in history and be remembered smazing stuff all around
I'm definitely buying this game now since waka plays this game, and he fire
Either this was a joke or you're actually so much of a braindead consumer that you're more likely to buy a game because a celebrity played it lol
@@jjerrodaustin mate live your own life
Lol at above but wacka was obviously just supporting something he enjoys with hype from his name so that’s pretty cool of him.
I would have never accepted this lol. No matter how it goes, it's bad for you. Either you lose to a blind guy or beat a blind guy
Wacka Flacka went from rapping to MK tournaments 😂 an achievement in my books
Facts, and to see how he's grown so much as a person is such a testimony 💯 🙌🏾
he sucks at the game tho even my dog can beat wocka in mk1!!!
He also did edm for a lil bit. A lot of ppl don’t know that.
@@10FN0N3 I knew was out in about living life and doing community stuff. He’s been so underground and low key I definitely didn’t know about him doing EDM.
He’s such a down to earth guy 😂. I’ve been seeing him out there helping the communities.
At this point I can't tell if Sonic is maining Kenshi or Kenshi is maining Sonic

Starts the fatality, shaked Waka’s hand and walks away. Doesn’t even wait for it to finish. What a fucking GOAT
Different
Theres no point waiting for the fatality to finish… match already been decided
I don’t think people know how impressive this really was
Hitting combos and fatal blows at the same time blindfolded is unreal that’s a talent if you ask me
Takes a lot of muscle memory
Audio helps a lot as well, helps you form a rhythm.
lol get good
As someone who hoops and knows how important muscle memory is.....this is some damn impressive shit. He knows the sounds of everything and memorized the timing of these combos
And he has only had the game for 2 days
As someone who needs to memorize music for band, yeah you right this shit is so impressive (not sarcasm)
@Banana_Man17 man memorizing music is nuts too. Then, executing it with so many other instruments going at the same time
@@YunisRajabHe played this game for way longer than 2 days…

I was there in person to see this yesterday. So glad I decided to go. Never expected to see something so iconic at my first FGC event.
Big W for Waka though. This was a great way to introduce his company to the gaming scene
Yeah, but I guess by pulling a Frank Dux to make it happen after a year of talking that ish and sharping his skills.
I see nothing about what he been tweeting about here.
I guess any publicity is good publicity?🫤🤷
So much respect for the growth that Waka has had over the years and for him to be where he is doing stuff like this instead of still being in teh streets.
I think the gaming industry needs to make SonicFox as a playable character. He’s earned that this guy masters his main like now other
Or name the hardest difficulty setting after him
Sonic is the reason i got into watching competitive MK tournaments, guy is something else
He's featured in the background in SkullGirls so that's start!

Hands down sonic, this is so sick.. you keep making me amazed everytime, keep it up brother! A joy to watch

@@Eli9mm7Not really, it’s kind of like how musicians don’t have to see the instrument to play the song.

Bro is kenshi in real life lowkey hard 😂😂
SonicFox is def one of the most entertaining players to watch
I did this against sonic myself back in the day on mk11 and lost... but I didn't see it... so it didn't count 👽
Fam 💀
This just single-handedly sold me on this game. The audio design must be 🔥🔥🔥
They use A TON of audio assets from MK11. It's one of the things that really annoy me about this game.
@@WutTheDeuceGaming one of ashrahs moves using a previous sindel scream asset irritates tf outta me lol

Wow.... the muscle memory of the top pros is insane.
muscle memory and audio confirmation
Insane
Sonic is incredible. He can feel the rhythm of the combat, the frame of each combo. He truly become Kenshin himself 😅
That was the most entertaining mk vid i've seen I've been watching since mkx tournies omggg
Sonic is officially the GOAT after this... He just silenced all haters.
One of the GOAT’s in FGC history. Evo wins across multiple titles?
Waka was stunned at the end 😂😂😂. Thanks for being a good sport, Waka 👏👏
Love the smile on Waka taking the L. Very cool stuff.
This was awesome the commentary was s tier and sonicfox always amazing to watch
Imagine being so good at your craft you learn how to do it blindfolded. 🐐
🤯🤦🏽♂️ I can't believe he just did that. I'm amazed. Way to go "SonicFox" 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽.
This was 100% real! We were there! Sonic is a beast!
I have to give props. Sonicfox is a TRUE Mortal Kombat master.
SonicFox sound recognition is top notch. No wonder he's the best player in MK!
Can’t believe this is still up I didn’t know youtube let people most murders
this is my first time watching a real MK1 match this was super exciting Sonic makes this sh*t look so peak
Oh my god!!!! Its unreal. This guy is the Michael Jordan of mk.
I don’t know what’s more amazing SonicFox being blindfolded or Waka Flocka Flame playing Mortal Kombat
Unlike Perfect Legend, Waka got good sportsmanship and knows how to have fun. GG to both sides.
GIVE PERFECT LEGEND HIS PROPS, You can hate him but he earned his props as the best Kung Lao player in history

What a time 😂😂

Total immersion
I guess we know now if he ever goes blind he still can playlmao
He was using Kenshi blind powers
This is NAAAAASTY WORK😂😂😂 HOW YOU LOSE in a real life Kenshi way BLINDFOLDED 😭😭😭
The real kenshi doesn't exist, he can't hurt you

Always cool to see people succeed in multiple capacities. Kudos to what seems like a good dude.
It's sad to me how long it took the world to understand people are products of their environment.
Disrespectful right out of the gate lmao. Blindfold is crazy 😂😂
Waka Flocka genuinely seems like a cool, down to earth person in all his interviews. Def an entertaining watch 💪🏼
This guy got god level skill on this game, that was impressive
Playing a blind character and wining blindfolded is the ultimate flex 💪
Fcking unreal
Unreal lmao the way he’s labbed this game is insane
Blindfolded Kenshi is actually insane. Sorry Waka Baraka 😂
Sonicfox is Kenshi! Sonic is gonna win so many tournaments during the life of this game.
Bro hit confirmed his fatal blow. While blind. What a fucking beast
Lol 😂 definitely didn't see this coming ..
THIS is how we need to be testing pros of all things. Increasingly ridiculous handicaps, just to see what's what and who's legit.
I'm pretty sure it's confirmed at this point that sonic is just a living God of fighting games! 👀👍💪
Damn sonicfox literally the gods of fighting games 🔥🔥🔥
This was amazing!😂. Much love Sonic❤.
Absolutely insane! Respect 👊
you're gonna have to get the full kenshi drip and do at least a match like this in a tourney
That guy squeezing his shoulder to tell him what side hes on.
This was so sick! Waka Flocka got even more of my respect after this 😂😂 Kenshi is maining Sonic atp💀

It took 11 years, but Sonic and I have finally connected as one 🤣
This is just the inspiration waka needed to make a hit!!
the dude behind the blindfolded guy was giving him signals through taps on his shoulder... you can see him ready to tap several times
That's what they said he will do in the video. It's because not being able to see is hard already but if you're not even able to know what way you're looking there's no shot at winning.

Kenshi doesn't guess tho, he can see through Sento
