The seemingly unstoppable Dominique "SonicFox" McLean beat Jarrad "NinjaKilla" Gooden in the Final Kombat 2020 Grand Finals from Losers Side to win $40,000, a replica of Shao Kahn’s Hammer, and the honor of calling themself the best Mortal Kombat 11 player in the world.
The famous furry turned most of the competition into a joke with Joker, a character many view as mediocre, losing only to NinjaKilla in Winners Finals. SonicFox is still respectable to the community and competition despite their evergrowing list of accomplishments. They're looking forward to a long rivalry with NinjaKilla, whose rapid rise through the rankings was anything but stealthy.
