Jason & Tanya are the ONLY DLC characters allowed at EVO 2015

[STORMS]

We saw it coming, but yes, the only DLC characters allowed at EVO will be Jason Voorhees and Tanya. This is coming directly from @Mr Wizard via twitter as of last night. Considering EVO is less than three weeks away, these decisions have to be made to prevent disruptions at these events in the event there is a broken aspect of a new DLC character i.e. infinite combo, broken meter system (Mystic Ermac), etc.

The Evolution World Finals will take place July 17-19 in Las Vegas at the Bally's / Paris Las Vegas Casino. More information: http://evo.shoryuken.com/

It doesn't appear that Tremor will be out before Evo.

 

[REDRUM]

dammmmmmm

Smart move - you don't was MKX to be a laughing stock if Predator is ridiculously strong.

 

[Pan1cMode]

Goro?

Spectral Ermac so irrelevant he doesn't even get credit for his bugs.

By the time Evo takes place, Predz will be about a week removed from being made available to everyone. It's the only logical choice to make for an event this grand especially.

 

[kivatt]

But is there going to be a patch during pools? If so, will they use it?

Goro?

Banned because he has two extra arms, and that's not fair

 

[juicepouch]

Goro?

I doubt mrwizard knows goro is dlc, assuming he's allowed

 

[DOOMSDAY-15RUS-]

we haven't still the date for predator release,

 

[Tim Static]

Goro?

Goro isn't considered DLC even if he technically is. He's been available since the second the game was released to everyone.

 

[Tim Static]

we haven't still the date for predator release,

No date but early July assuming the same time period between Jason & Tanya.

 

[Hidan]

-Yeyyyy, I can play Mr.Voorhees
-you can't go, remember?
-oh





(with the patch, I still might see other Jasons hehehe)

In before gorro being banned like joker becomes a thing

 

[CrimsonShadow]

Carl Weathers Jax will be playable at EVO


I guess it's better for him if Predator isn't there.

 

[Tony at Home]

There's actually a glitch where even if you pay for Goro, you don't get him.

I believe the glitch is known as "buying the game"
