NRS community face REO recently put out a video detailing his current feelings on the roster in the current version of Injustice 2. Watch the video in this thread to see his thoughts!

While playing games, like Injustice 2, and going to see all the related superhero movies, it can often be easy to forget about the real heroes in life. There are people who face hardships and difficulties that many of us couldn't even imagine battling against. However, these heroes have been brought to life in a wonderful way by photographer Josh Rossi.

Josh and his team set out to photograph the REAL justice league:

Hello all! As you may or may not know, Black Manta was revealed today and a ton of people seem to be really excited for him. From what I saw, he seems like a neutral, midranged character with really strong mobility and counter zoning tools (aka a dream come true for me) His gear looks dope and overall, a perfect representation of Black Manta. However as you also know, they don't JUST cover the new character in these streams. So, what else did they cover? Well legendary gear of course! So what were we told?

Earlier today, Major Nelson (the reputable source of xbox gaming news) tweeted about the recent Injustice 2 patch, drawing particular attention to the fact that it introduced xbox arena compatability to Injustice 2.

Xbox arena is a platform on Xbox one, where tournaments can be organised and ran straight through the console.

In the tweet, they also mention "upcoming events run by ESL".
