Yeah, it was called into question.
Someone - Repped me with this comment "Seems like you've been a noob for over 10+ years lmao" in reply to my comment:
EDIT:
Of course no one ever says who they are when they -Rep you.

Why are you asking permission?
As I've told others who asked me for this same thing. Be a forum contributor and run a thread for a character you like. We'll then make them sticky at your request as they catch on. Sadly this hasn't been done yet by any threads that stand out, and no one has asked us to sticky a character thread they created either. Manage the OP and continually update it with more information, etc. I can't possibly do justice and manage all 30 character threads like they need to be run.
Just telling me "create these 30 character threads" is not going to make the conversation naturally happen because I created a blank character thread that I wont be able to maintain and guide the conversation of. To maintain a proper character thread (in my eyes what that would be) is a massive undertaking for me to do, and we're looking for the community here to step up and create what threads they find valuable to others in the community. The forum will change around that as it needs.
Anywayas I haven't had one compelling argument for us creating 30 blank character threads here on TRMK yet instead of letting the community create what they want. Many people wanting the dedicated threads but no one at all willing to step up and create these threads.

You instigated this yourself. Here we are discussing about competitive play and opinions of Tom and you come in saying that you aren't an Mk Noob cause you dont know Tom Brady?? That wasnt the topic for discussion. You need to clear up your mind and read the posts more carefully.

I listened to ~45 minutes of this podcast starting at 26 minutes in. I really enjoyed hearing why Tom Brady thought some of the characters were better than others, it helps me to defend against such tactics online (and maybe use them myself).
Do I have any idea who Tom Brady is? Nope, not a clue. Does that impact the content of the discussion? Not a bit. I place almost no value on ethos. If what's being said is reasonable, the person saying it is of absolutely no concern to me.
I will, in all likelihood, stop playing MK9 in a week once I've gotten everything I want out of it. I don't play games for sport, and I don't play sports either. Competition isn't high on my to-do list. I play it for the story and the fun of experiencing it. I've said this so many times I've lost count, but if I had to keep playing the same game for months at a time without any new content...I'd probably stop gaming altogether.
The kind of talk in this podcast is NOT over my head, I understood every word. I just probably won't ever need this kind of info.

Well said Glamador. A lot of people are getting upset in this thread that I don't think need to. Remember one person's opinions are just that opinions and it shouldn't be a point of argument really in my mind.
Tom is an amazing player if you know him or not. I agree with much of his opinions and disagree with others as well. It goes both ways because it's nearly impossible to ever completely agree with anyone. In this podcast he had a LOT of great things to say and I'm glad I had it on for most of the day.
If you want more from him he's got some great character guides he's been building over on Test Your Might.
Also I'm very much a MK gameplay scrub, I love playing for fun with friends and site members but I don't enter many tournaments because I know I don't stand a competitive chance. Does that not make me a fan? Some say I'm not if I'm a scrub, but I'll argue that opinion any day of the week but I think doing MK guides and websites since 1995 says otherwise.

Me not knowing who THIS Tom Brady is, is irrelevant, and my previous comment "That's what I thought too. So, this isn't Tom Brady of The Patriots???" was a joke.
There was no need for such an ass-hole reply.
Pat even said himself
That being said, I listened to the podcast, and thought it was pretty informative.

Yes, I did get that. But nobody questioned your Mk fandom or anyone else's for that matter in this thread and yet you bring it into the discussion without any cause. Anyways lets stop this now, people come here hoping to read valuable insights and instead they would be bummed seeing people arguing.

Wow thanks for this! Awesome insight for a novice player such as myself.
Used it a couple times, but I don't really know how to use it like he's talking about. Sorry, brah.

thanks heaps man!! i get it now! hmmm... should it be fixed??
No need to thank me. Thank Tom Brady!
Absolutely, NRS will have to fix this. The question is how. My guess is that if you cancel a string into the stance, you will have to wait X frames before you can cancel out of the stance. Ideally, you would be able to buffer the stance cancel so she exits the stance ASAP.

Very insightful information on Stryker here. I've been noticing that the more I play him, the more TB is right about him. Thanks for the podcast!
What do the hitboxes have to do with these "glitches?" And if you're referring to Sonya's stance cancel issue when you mentioned "the Sonya glitch," that is not a glitch at all.

For just $14.99 you can download a DLC pack that will fix... err I mean... improve your gameplay experience.
You also get a 4th alternate costume for Mileena. It's a black lace teddy. OMFG!!!111! And you can fap to it in the necropolis. Seriously though, they have quite a few gameplay glitches to fix. Like the huge bug with parry moves.... So bad that you will get disqualified in local tournaments for crouch blocking after successful parry!
