OnlineTony made a name for himself back in the Street Fighter 4 era with his excellent and in your face style with Seth. He was a mixup monster and was very strong all around, regularly placing in our tournament results during Street Fighter 4’s heyday.
And now during Father’s Day weekend, his son, STG|Onlinecale213 took home first place in Mortal Kombat 1 at CEO 2025.
I’ve been a single parent for the longest, my journey through it was tough and still is….but I’m proud of Cale and what man he is growing up to be. I’m very happy as a father. Love you @onlinecale213 #HappyFathersDay pic.twitter.com/ZuhJjTklGZ

This is a really special thing to see, as it’s clear that OnlineTony has put a ton of his time, effort and dedication into his son’s life, to see him follow in his own footsteps and become a top level tournament competitor in the Fighting Game Community.
The fact that this happened during Father’s Day weekend here in 2025 makes it all the more poetic and special.
OnlineCale has been doing quite well in Mortal Kombat 1 tournaments, placing 9th at Combo Breaker 2025, 3rd at Texas Showdown 2025 and 17th at Evo 2024, and now with a win at a major event.
This is an absolutely wonderful thing to see happen in our community.
