The Chicago, Il event hitting the North America this weekend has A LOT to offer both spectators and attendees. Well, for those who attend, they get the bigger chance of awesomeness in the form of a $10,000 Pot Bonus for Mortal Kombat X Top 8 provided by NetherRealm Studios/Warner Bros (Thanks to all who purchased the Sub-Zero Blue Steel skin!). With this said, it's obvious that Mortal Kombat X numbers would be high. Also, the fact that it is always very likely to see NetherRealm Studios' staff attend the events in the area as well.

However, we still have one more thing to accomplish before officially going into the weekend and that is to surpass our competition. View below, the pre-registration numbers for ComboBreaker!

So I just wanted to say -- I've been dealing with Rick (aka Richard aka @Rocksteady/The Hadou) behind the scenes off and on for the better part of a year and a half now. Back at UFGT, he was always quietly behind the curtain, putting in work and being a key piece of the way things came together.

Even back then, he had his ideas about how some things could be done differently, and parts of Combo Breaker are the result. The top billing MKX is receiving there is a prime example, and that means a lot to our community.

I can't imagine a nicer, more dedicated, or more knowledgeble guy to run an event. He's always been around to answer questions, share information, or talk through issues. Even at his busiest, he still takes the time to reply in a gracious way. If anything goes wrong he's always been apologetic -- even when it's on someone else's behalf.

People like this are rare and hard to find, and I couldn't be happier that attendance like this is happening at his event. Well deserved man, and I wish both the staff and the competitors a completely awesome weekend.
