Talk:Cammy VS Sonya/@comment-27980774-20160817203809

Alright, episode's up, I don't have to worry about spoilers anymore. Unfortunately, I don't really have much good to say about it.

Honestly, I think this result was a load of bullshit. The experience gap between the two characters was really overplayed. Sure, Sonya has more experience than Cammy does, but not by a huge margin. Her victory against Scorpion, Sub Zero, Quan Chi, and Jax was with Johnny Cage and Raiden's help, and while she does have leading experience with the Special Forces, Cammy had some leading experience with the Shadaloo dolls (which it seems like they didn't factor in, despite Cammy now retaining her memories from that time).

Same thing with Sonya's tech, it felt highballed. They made it sound like the drone is capable of giving Sonya the win, even though Cammy's quick and nimble enough to get up close to the drone and destroy it before it becomes too much of a problem later on.

The thing that gets me the most, though, is the fact that they used Test Your Might, a fucking minigame, to justify that Sonya had a strength advantage as well. Do I even need to explain why this is stupid?

So let's see, a character who is a better fighter, is faster, (should be) stronger, more durable, more agile, and more raw power (Psycho energy), loses to someone who has better weaponry and tech, and a slight experience advantage.

The animation was good, probably the best 2D fight of the season so far. It's just unfortunate that we have yet another episode with a faulty verdict.

Anyways, I'm sorry if I'm coming off like an ass here. I really don't know why, out of all episodes, this is the one that gets me pissed off. Maybe it's because I'm starting to get tired of the amount of poor verdicts this season, or maybe it's because they used a fucking minigame as one of their big points for Sonya.

Oh well, I guess the next time makes it up for me a little bit. Again, sorry if I'm being a bit of an asshole here. I'm usually not bothered when I disagree with a fight on this show, but this one really got to me for some reason.
