Mortal Kombat pro shocks crowd with epic pop off Stephanie Lindgren \/ CEOThe Fighting Game Community received one of its most vicious pop offs in recent memory during the top 96 of Community Effort Orlando (CEO) 2019, which left commentators and audiences alike completely speechless at the victor\u2019s reaction. The Mortal Kombat 11 Pro Kompetition is in full swing with FGC fans filing into the Daytona Beach Ocean Center for a weekend of fighting game festivities. But most attendees probably weren\u2019t expecting the heat that would emanate from the competition after a decisive victory early in the pools. After a thrilling sweep in a first-to-two, Leif \u2018Daddy\u2019 Boisvert (known as Buffalo) made sure his opponent Brad \u2018Scar\u2019 Vaughn felt the woes of defeat with a vicious \u2014 and prolonged \u2014 celebration on stage. In the aftermath of their Winners Semi-Finals bout in Pool 11, Buffalo quickly rose from his chair and got in Scar\u2019s face. While it seemed like Buffalo was just going for some intense post-match banter, it was quickly evident that he had a lot on his mind, since he clearly wasn\u2019t backing off from his defeated enemy.

Scar played it cool for most of the episode, but the on-stage antics obviously didn\u2019t sit well with the 2019 MK11 Combo Breaker Champion as he flipped off Buffalo, to which the winner responded in kind. What set off the interaction between Scar and Buffalo It seems like Buffalo was playing to prove a point after a June 8 Twitter exchange, in which Scar expressed his disbelief that Buffalo had at the time sent \u2018Ninjakilla\u2019 to losers during a previous ft2. This obviously didn\u2019t sit well with Buffalo, as he thought Scar was trying to \u201cdiscredit\u201d the player\u2019s impressive win. \u201cYou\u2019re saying \u2018if this tournament was (First-to-3) Ninjakilla would\u2019ve won,\u2019 Buffalo said. \u201cDon\u2019t act like that\u2019s not what you meant.\u201d Regardless of the meaning in the Twitter thread, the exchange was clearly fresh on Buffalo\u2019s mind in the wake of his win over Scar, leading to the pop off of epic proportions.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
