SonicFox surprised everyone at the Video Game Awards on December 6 when he ended up winning Best Esports Player of the Year. Most people were excited for the athlete, and for fighting games in general, but some, like s1mple, thought competitors in first person shooter were more deserving of the award because the games are more difficult. Just imagine to become best Esport player in fighting game, congrats @SonicFox5000 But CSGO is team game, there is more things to practice individually and with a team, this game is more harder and interesting \u2014 Sasha (@s1mpleO) December 7, 2018 After congratulating SonicFox on the win, s1mple wrote in the same tweet that \u201cCSGO is team game, there is more things to practice individually and with a team, this game is more harder and interesting.\u201d Read More: CS:GO viewership on Twitch sees a huge increase after release of Danger Zone battle royale mode – This obviously didn\u2019t go over well with a number of people, some, including SonicFox himself, pointed out that he has won tournaments in multiple fighting games this year. I think you don’t understand he has won titles in multiple games. You for example have only won in CS GO. \u2014 Nemi (@LifeOfNemiii) December 7, 2018 Pro fighting games player Denom \u2018A F0xy Grampa\u2019 Jones saw s1mple\u2019s tweet and decided to respond with a challenge of his own to FPS players. If any CSGO player thinks fighting games are easy I\u2019ll accept any money match from anyone in the FPS community (CSGO community primarily) $1000 minimum in mk11, I\u2019ll give you a month prep time after launch. Any takers? The offer is real \u2014 PXP | A F0xy Grampa (@AF0xyGrampa) December 7, 2018 Read More: CS:GO: Shroud discovers what happens when you start a fist fight with a barrel in Danger Zone – For his part, s1mple did respond after learning that SonicFox competes in five different titles to say he thought the athlete did deserve the award.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
