I'll bring a setup because it seems like we're getting some more people ^^
Hopefully there will be another monitor I can run it off of

That has nothing to do with it. How do you get better if you do not play people that are better than you. Besides if you are lacking in areas we will help you out. That is why it is called Level Up, and you will. I have about 10 tens since we started so I am sure that you will too.

Fair nuff and good points. I like the camaraderie you guys have and this is what the mk scene needs/is all about

And this goes out to anyone thinking of coming but may think they are not good enough. Unless you placed at the top of major events you will probably have people that show up to our level up group that are better than you are at MK. You should come to the level up sessions anyway. Everyone is really cool and we take the time to offer advice and show you things so that you will get better. It really does not take that long to get better.

Example when we first started these Level Up sessions I won just over 50% of my ranked matches. Over time and with some practice I win about 90% of my ranked matches and I still have a long way to go.

The Level Up Group is a really relaxed environment, but we all take the game seriously. Which is one of the main reasons I love this group so much. I think we all try to be as helpful as we can, and let it be known that we have some very good players. I don't know what I'm considered yet, but I'll let other people decide :p The best way to improve your game is to continue learning your characters, checking the forums on your characters/strategies/mixups, and going out to play offline in casuals and tournaments. It's better to be able to say you went to this tournament and played instead of saying "I wish I went to that tournament"

Cool. I main with Smoke, Sonya, and Subzero. I do check the character forums but haven't done so in a long time. You guys ever meet on the weekends?

I main Smoke so I can give you a lot of guidance there. Toxic, Staticjack and Cyrusstrike are all Sub players. Clint has a really good Sonya.

I know that sometimes there are some get togethers on the weekends at people houses. Once you stop by once and meet everyone then you will get the invites to play all the time.

What Ed said pretty much covered everything, but pertaining to our Sub-Zero players...
Jack and Cyuss use a lot more mixups than I do. I also think Cyuss is the strongest Sub player out of all of us, Sub's also his main. Although I've started using some on my own with up close pressure. I just don't think you should use mixups in certain situations. Sometimes it just seems better to me to punish with a full combo, if possible.

Cool. I think i watched a vid with you on it. You do the 214 some bomb string right? I rarely see anybody use it and you use it well
 
looks like i'll actually be able to go
if i bring my xbox 360 fight stick will i be able to actually use it or am i banished to ps3-land?
 
Not sure if I can make it 2-nite - I was out of town all last week for work but I will give it a try for sure. How many folks are going to be able to make it and how many setups

It looks like a lot of new faces will be here tonight. I know some people could not make it but it still looks like there will be 10-12 people. As far as setups I am not sure who is bring what so that is an unknown. I will of course have mine setup but I can not speak for anyone else. Toxic mentioned bringing a xbox but without a monitor that may not help that much.
