    As a longtime follower of the fighting game community, FGC, I can confirm that SonicFox is an absolute legend, arguably the greatest fighting game player of all time.

    In terms of lifetime earnings from tournament winnings, they are currently third: https://www.esportsearnings.com/players/fighting-game-players

    But the 2 players ahead of them each won USD$1 million in single tournaments within the last year.

    And they are a openly gay and a furry, in an online sport where they’re really the only open one of either of those.

    edit: Fixed pronouns.

      I would like them more if they didn’t have a legion of fanboys who metawhore everything Fox picks… Oh well.

    Rad that they included SonicFox in this campaign. Less rad that they included Billy Mitchell, whose only achievement is cheating at Donkey Kong and suing Twin Galaxies after he got caught.
