I'm anxiously awaiting my console announcement on MKX too. This 50/50 on what hardware I get to body fools with Ermac on is the longest wait.

That's a lot of money to spend to get bodied by my friends....

Hopefully I can go.

 

[Zyphox]

i missed last years UFGT because no one wanted to drive over with me, this year i say fuck it, i'll drive by myself, saved up a bunch of money for tournaments for MKX this is one of the stops!! if you're on the EC, are cool and wanna split the trip let me know.

 

[Dope Dojo]

I heard someone else make a comment this one is just a pot for the people who tested the game. Oh well, it should be fun anyways. I was at UFGT last year, hopefully this is just as good.

lol you don't have to be good to ride in my car man, do you live on the East Coast? i live in PA. if you do live on the East Coast i would make an EC event your first, i'm sure ECT will be around the week before or after this one. there are also local tournaments every week and such to get tournament experience but closer to this date i'll let you know if i'm going in my car or if EC players are all going in a Van or something (i'll join them on that usually) i just want to have a back up plan in case no one from EC trying to drive again.

[cR_MindSet]

Can someone confirm for me if there is a Spectator Pass that is needed to watch the event? We have a few people that want to come and watch but cannot find this info anywhere. Thanks!

 

[NB Semi Evil Ryu]

Just registered for MK X.

@cR_MindSet

No Spec Pass needed. Eyeballs are free at Combo Breaker. If they decide to enter side tournaments or compete though they'll need to pick up a Casuals Pass - which will be available on site.
