Northwest Majors MKX Hype, Updates and top 8!

[Insuperable]

See this is why I am hoping our community really comes out and supports TCW. Mkx will have every pool streamed and top 8 is AFTER ultra. It's time to change it up enough of nrs community being treated like shit. They are also flying in foxy for us and have a 4k pot bonus. They also have a billion setups is insane

If I don't count a billion setups, I'm leaving and making sure no one ever returns to the false promises of The Common Wealth.

And TCW is located at the Legion of Doom! Venue appearance hype you guys.

Shameless promotion of the VA scene <3

Didn't Skullgirls get the second most entrants? Give em some stream time, MKX will be a major event for at least another year.

 

[onetrickpony]

Off topic, but what's the problem with 10 AM pools? Do people not wake up at 5 or 6 in the morning like me?

Seriously though, I just never understood why it's such a big problem for people.

it's not a problem, all the players were there. The MKX setups weren't!

So all the or most of the 2 week testers made it out but the person who had mkx for 1+ month over everyone couldnt make it out of a free pool with a OP sub zero?.... and you guys still want sub nerfed!!!! Lol

obviously throwing those matches to prevent sub nerf. collusion at its finest.

If I didn't know any better, that would look like a dig at Tom.

 

[Jimmypotato]

Grats Dink, He beat Chris G to make Top 8 Winners!!!

To be fair, he was beat by another tester so...

 

[EndofGameBoss]

So who are the final 8?

 

[onetrickpony]

so skullgirls got its stream time extended to show all the pools and R+ got delayed so they could show everything, but they couldnt do that for MKX?

 

[Paul the Octopus]

I just hope footwurk didn't play Kung Jin as well

Anyone know who he used?

No, this is for all the dumb ppl wanting to nerf sub. I mean we have arguably THE best sub zero ever with a 1+ month advance but couldn't win the first major. Just pointing out the obvious. SUB does NOT need nerfs!

 

[funkdoc]

yea guys, i recall hearing that skullgirls had the 2nd most entrants at NWM. and regarding the "dead game" talk...

as the combo breaker pre-reg numbers and this suggest, there's apparently been a revival of that game lately. there's been a huge uptick with anime games in general recently, i think because people are finally getting sick of marvel 3 and those are the closest thing to it.

so i'm not going to be too mad about this. skullgirls needs their shine more than we do, we've got plenty of time yet. besides, month 1 play is normally ass to watch anyway...

That's a better yet still see-through attempt.

 

[DanableLector]

Chef just blew Tom's back out, and lol at all the folks saying Kano is low tier on day 10 lmao

I saw people saying that earlier in this thread.. about f champ being a low tier hero, thought they were joking. Cut throat Kano is really really good and cybernetic kanos zoning is really really good. Tell those guys they are fools!

 

[Via_Negativa]

if SZ gets nerfed unfairly it will just be history repeating itself. Hopefully NRS have learnt at this point.

 

[funkdoc]

twitter just told me that footwurk plays hellfire scorpion

that explains a lot, would be a good fit with how he played dante in marvel 3. also a tough matchup for sub...

EDIT: ok i guess skullgirls just had 32 people at NWM so that rumor was false. the combo breaker numbers are legit though, interesting

 

[WATCHD0G]

Is the 1 hour stream the only footage that we have?

 

[Johnny Based Cage]

To be honest, a whole lot of Mortal Kombat fans and players just decided today that NWM is not a major they will ever consider attending.

 

[StevoSuprem0]

Anyone know who Chris G used?

 

[Briggs8417]

Every time I looked over a Kung Jin was playing. I wasn't all that hype watching until I saw my boy chef go ham.

 

[Briggs8417]

Anyone know who Chris G used?

Probably reptile, that's who he said he would be using this game anyway.

 

[funkdoc]

people at the tournament told me chris g has been playing kung jin exclusively

so that means we have 3 of them in top 8 here. or maybe 2 if REO switches it up
