NEC Shoutout thread

Dead Kings Rise
With the biggest tournament of the year concluded, a shoutout thread soon follows.

Mikemetroid - we meet again! It was awesome seeing you again, except for when you demonstrated how you and tyrant would give eachother grundy hugs (ow). Congrats on your first grand final for mk, it was awesome when you beat SonicFox's Kenshi. I'll be your master when WB comes though.

Mr Aquaman - VGGS good sir, you are definitely the Ares of the world and you have a pornorific stache. Ares is still better then NW.

astronout - VGGS also, it was awesome to finally play you offline where I can react to Slide haha. It was a shame you didn't play catwoman, since it's like the only MU NW wins.

Srryimwhte - Finally we meet. It was awesome relaxing and talking about reptile with someone who actually knows what they're talking about. Thanks for letting me borrow your pad, I owe you. Reptile mirror FT5 for $1000 at WB maybe?

SonicBoomBrad - Sorry that my first words were "hey brad, noobes a better doomsday" to you, I was just mad that my hair and my shirt wasn't as half as good as yours.

AK Smarrgasm - It was an honor to see the rain of the world in person. It's a shame you choked and didn't make it out of pools AGAIN, go back to winning locals you scrub.

Sajam - "I *shakes hair to side* play nightwing." Dude it was awesome finally meeting you. We're both short, ruggedly handsome, and main nightwing, you're like the west coast version of me. Slips probably would have had an aneurysm if he heard what we were saying about NW. Watching Tyrant vs Theo and at the end screaming "WHY CANT NIGHTWING DO THAT' was probably my favorite part of the night. Congrats on 9th in KI, you can't play nightwing in that game so you don't lose from the start. Also I'm really sorry that the first time you played SonicFox was in tournament, I know all too well how that feels. Come to more E.C events, we get friendlier when we know you.

Blind_Man - <3. Congrats on 3rd place, you did amazing and you're going to win the next tournament you go to. Thanks for buying me expensive ass food, then giving me some of yours, I'm fat I need as much food as I can get. I wish your pad wasn't so stiff (lul) but I probably still would've lost anyways. You're welcome for me teaching you how to play pattycake.

Whiteboi or whatever his name is on here - VGGs, great doomsday and you convinced me that just going in the lab and blocking ES a few times does not help at all. You're welcome for the headphones I guess haha.

Cash - I think this is your TYM handle, if not I'm sorry. VGGs, you have a really good DS. I'm sorry that you lost to astronout, I know what that feels like too much haha. You and G4S J360 talking about f2 background bounce combos with DS and getting super hype about it was hella tight.

7L - Green Arrow of the world! I'm glad that my downplaying gave away who I was, still you can't convince me that GA isn't better then NW. I hope you're ready for my Harley at the next tournament you go to.

Also shoutouts to AK Pig Of The Hut, GGA pimpimjim, rev0lver, Zyphox, EMPEROR_THEO, DarthArma, FOREVER KING, AK Reno_Racks, SonicFox5000, and everyone else I talked to but can't remember. You were all cool (except for Fox, god I hate you with a passion) and I hope we can hang out at the next tournament.

Post your shoutouts below.

It's not Downplaying if it's true...

Point is it seems NEC was fun. I hope errbody have fun
I used to play NW, I think he requires lots of effort to win with and that maybe he is not top 10, but constantly thrashing NW as if he was bottom five sounds like downplaying.

Hi as usual to Little Eric. Even though we both live in Philly, I feel like we only ever end up running into you at Evo every year haha. Nice to combo breaker it.

Shoutouts to everyone who put on a good show. A+ job to Sanford and Justin for their godly exhibition match on Saturday night. Without a doubt the hypest thing that happened the entire weekend.

Chongo and I had the greatest conversations about Injustice. Such a fun time, shoutouts to every body from the east coast being super tight. Arma, Fran, all the Atl dudes, Revolver, Noobe, Rico, Kitana Prime for learning about SoCal infinites, etc.

Everybody was so awesome man, I haven't even left yet and I'm already sad about it. I'm guessing the lasting impression SoCal left is that wakeup scoop is super godlike and we all say hella way too much.

Huge thanks to everyone this weekend at NEC, great event and players showed up in masses. Thank you to the NRS game staff for keeping things moving and making the event enjoyable for all. Stream had some issues getting started by fortunately AK Pig Of The Hut was there and provided us with a solid 4G connection all night!

Congrats GGA PimPimJim for taking Injustice in dominating fashion, and Forever King holding strong in MK9. Honorable mention to Mikemetroid troid for placing in his first tournament and getting 2nd in MK9.

Hope to see a lot of you at Yestercades of Red Bank on December 28th for KI, Injustice, AE and Marvel!

For the record about NW downplay: I have always said NW is way better than people give him credit for. He has no really important matchups that he wins, but winning 5-5s takes work that I'm willing to put in.

I'm hoping I can live up to the fantastic hospitality I was shown on the east coast at SCR. I have nothing but great things to say about everybody. While everybody sat at home arguing about meaningless stuff on tym, every player from every region was having a great time playing and hanging out. Everyone was playing each other and sharing stuff about their characters and matchups. Theo and KDZ talking about Superman meta game together scared me. We need more of that, and less of what we've had since evo.

Also, what the fuck is this snow bullshit I need SoCal weather pls

This has been the best tournament I've ever gone too. All the people I met were super cool, especially the east coast guys. So glad I got to meet a lot of people that I've known for a while. So much fun and stuff and I wana type more but I've had 2 hours of sleep. Bukkake.
