MK2 Draft tournament

[dubson]

GD…. Jason so Saucy

Good stuff Jay

 

[Dyzvhtynzal]

I was going to take Reptile or Raiden away, but I need someone who can sweep.

I'll take Mr. Tsung.

 

[Kaz]

Nice picks! @tehdrewsus , you're up!

 

[tehdrewsus]

Everybody in the car!!



(Raiden)

 

[MKB]

You know the sick thing is that even though Kaz is the 6th pick he is going to end up having the best team.

I thought for sure he was gonna get Lao and Raiden, which I think would have been his choices even if he were #1 pick

 

[Kaz]

I'll take Lao and Jax!

Nah they're two of my favs to play with but I'd def pick either Mileena or Liu ahead of them.

 

[tehdrewsus]

Scorpion

 

[Dyzvhtynzal]

I'll take Johnny Cage for my second pick.

 

[mortal_jason]

I pick Reptile.

@dubson you're up. Sub-Zero and Baraka are left.

 

[dubson]

Baraka

 

[MKB]

I guess that means I have Sub Zero.

 

[mortal_jason]

It's all set then

So we just play the 8 matches with people whenever we can, and report scores?

 

[Dyzvhtynzal]

If I don't go home today after work to see my family and friends, I'll run rings around you later tonight.

Yeah

 

[MKB]

All - today and this weekend probably won't work for me as I'm going on a camping trip. I can do the bulk of my matches when I return next week.

 

[Dyzvhtynzal]

0/8 to Jay. switched to a smaller tv. though i could block better, i still couldn't recover as fast. shouldve won at least 1.....maybe 2, but mkak is a fucking heartbreaker. it doesnt care what you input. it does what it wants. but i knew this. ggs jason.

 

[mortal_jason]

I won 8-0 vs @Dyzvhtynzal.

In all fairness he had some controller issues and the connection sucked.
Also I stole a Reptile vs Shang coz I aaRH Mileena when she went for the match winning Telekick.

I'll be on this weekend if anyone is around to do our matches.

GGs. I hear you, I ate about 5 Skulls in Shang vs Kitana that one round alone because it takes forever for inputs to read.
We usually have a better connection than that though.

 

[Dyzvhtynzal]

lol, i inputted a roll b4 the telekick cuz it was safer. mkak said no. it's okay. i wait with bated breath 4 a solid version of this game though. at least i can't perform any worse in future matches. i think.

That's all we can hope for. Though rumor has it the MK9 and MKAK servers were supposed to be terminated in April 2014.
But Boon pushed them back to May 2015.
So we'll see. We might all be on Mame one day playing in 175 ping wishing we had MKAK.

 

[tehdrewsus]

Why release a game and then terminate server support a few years later? That's beyond scummy.

Happens with all online based games eventually. It all comes down to support for the game and how many people still play it. If only a handful of people are playing the game on a regular basis, it makes absolutely zero sense financially for the company to keep the server up and running. Like it or not, MKAK and classic MK in general is just not popular among the masses and thus you see the possible results.

 

[tehdrewsus]

I hope p2p friendly matches still work
