Tyrant vs Theo was fucking unreal. watch that shit.

 

[K7L33THA]

Crazy tournament. The landscape of Injustice is changing.

 

[Protagonist_1]

This is going to be an AWESOME top 8. I think Theo is going to take it though, his Supes is too stronk

 

[juicepouch]

2 batmen?? Darn. It's a shame Maxter couldn't squeak past Arma with Lobo to make this top 8 even more super diverse

 

[Indecisive]

This Top 8 is so insane. I have no idea who is going to win. But i want Arma or Grr to win. And then Its Blind Ducky and Tyrant. This is insane.

Hypest Pools I've bore witness to in recent memory. Shout out's to AK Pig Of The Hut for coming through in the clutch with his 4G card for the Kombat Network stream (y'all need to get your shit together for real). Also props to Tanktop Guy for offering money to Pig to keep the stream up.

 

[Rickyraws]

Guys? Guys?

...I think we need to have the Tank Top Guy discussion.

 

[Fred Marvel]

Tyrant made me actually like Grundy

 

[Rickyraws]

I don't think people realize that we wouldn't have seen any of those matches if it wasn't for AK Pig Of The Hut , so guys show your appreciation, thousands got to watch the hype matches due to the actions of one. Props Pig, we love you

 

[Fred Marvel]

Guys? Guys?

...I think we need to have the Tank Top Guy discussion.

TTG needs to commentate top 8 and every tourney from now on

 

[BlastX21]

Winners bracket is Grundy, Bane, Raven, and Hawkgirl. How freaking epic is that.

 

[NorCalSamurai]

Hype pools, man. Some fucking unreal games. Tomorrow should be tight. Blind_Man repping NorCal in top 8, hope you take it home, bro.

 

[Saboteur-6]

So many upsets dude....just...wow.

 

[DarkPage]

I feel like PPJ could do it man, but i want Tyrant to do it after that godly performance against Theo his time is now.

 

[Saboteur-6]

You mean Blind Ducky dude

 

[xKhaoTik]

I absolutely cannot, Cannot, CANNOT WAIT for the stock thread. SonicBoomBrad is gonna get it soooooo good lmao.

 

[Saboteur-6]

I don't think people realize that we wouldn't have seen any of those matches if it wasn't for AK Pig Of The Hut , so guys show your appreciation, thousands got to watch the hype matches due to the actions of one. Props Pig, we love you

Absolutely. Totally bummed he didn't make Top 8, Tom too.

 

[ryumanjisen]

A Grundy, a Bane and a Doomsday on top 8? Now I'm hyped!

P.S: Where are all those feared Martian Manhunters?

 

[CrimsonShadow]

IGAU showed up in a major way today -- and proved that it is still as alive as ever

Congrats to everybody involved, no matter how far you made it, because all of these matches were fantastic.

This is def. one of the most memorable nights of Injustice I've ever had the pleasure of viewing.

 

[xKhaoTik]

TTG (flipkev) deserves a stock. He didnt make top 8 in the tourney, but he's definitely top 8 material for commentary

 

[Eddy Wang]

in MK from 13 to 17 i'm pretty sure they didn't make it. because my name is there and i'm actually here in angola. this sucks

 

[CrimsonShadow]

TTG (flipkev) deserves a stock. He didnt make top 8 in the tourney, but he's definitely top 8 material for commentary

He also donated $40 to the Keep Pig's Stream Alive fund.

 

[NoobHunter420]

the levels of hype were unreal, the kdz v. theo and theov. tyrant were god like.

 

[Tyrone Acer]

Did Reo play?
