However, no other Sora player has yet to match Zackray's achievement. In fact, most of Zackray's other results with Sora were more mixed, while a couple of other players who tried to main Sora, including {{Sm|Aaron|p=Florida}}, saw limited success; both players have since dropped Sora. In North America, despite confidence from players such as {{Sm|Maister}} and {{Sm|Dabuz}}, Sora garnered a reputation for being pulled out and used unsuccessfully in last-ditch efforts at majors, and both players have since saw little success when using the character. | However, no other Sora player has yet to match Zackray's achievement.

On the other hand, despite Zackray dropping the character, Sora saw continued success in Japan thanks to the efforts of {{Sm|kameme}}, who by mid-2022 had achieved multiple top 8 placements with the character, and {{Sm|komorikiri}}, who has achieved respectable placements regionally despite being semi-active. kameme especially was able to travel to North America for several tournaments and placed top 8 at almost all of them. kameme's success with the character helped improve Sora's reputation in North America: currently, the general perception of Sora is that he is a viable, yet unpopular character in the metagame with {{Sm|ESAM}} and kameme both ranking him in top tier, though time will tell how he fares in the long run. | On the other hand, despite Zackray dropping the character, Sora saw continued success in Japan thanks to the efforts of {{Sm|kameme}}, who by mid-2022 had achieved multiple top 8 placements with the character, and {{Sm|komorikiri}}, who has achieved respectable placements regionally despite being semi-active. kameme especially was able to travel to North America for several tournaments and placed top 8 at almost all of them. kameme's success with the character helped improve Sora's reputation in North America: currently, the general perception of Sora is that he is a viable, yet unpopular character in the metagame with {{Sm|ESAM}} and kameme both ranking him in top tier, though time will tell how he fares in the long run.
