Mid Tier
Mortal Kombat will be this Friday night, starting at Approx 9pm Mountain time, thats 11pm EST 8pm PST.

The stream will be www.twitch.tv/CanadaCup2

I know the one posted on here doesn't have the 2 on it, but Testyourmight won't let me put it in yet, because the channel is not up yet, I will try to remember to update it once it is.

Not sure what kind of turn out we are going to get, but I do know there will be some great players here, and this is the Western side of Canadas players. Very happy that they decided to hold MK for us over here as the scene isn't big, but any tourny is better then no tourny.

I know VSM returns friday night as well, but If you feel like trolling us hit up the stream Friday night,

Looks like the whole MK tourny will be done saturday night so I'm guessing we are in the range of 20-30 people.

Here is the schedule if you enjoy other fighting games as well, get your 8.95 troll on peeps, !! :)
