@Clutch8 any time frame on when we can expect info about Season 2? :coffee:
Hey. We are still in the planning stages. Season 2 will most likely start in the fall. The summer is always super busy with the trade shows and major tournaments. My personal preference will be to release more details around or after PAX Prime. Stay tuned :)

Until then, the ESL Open Cup Series is live and open to anyone who wants to participate in an online tournament for fun and training purposes.

Why the hell is there an online tournament for this game when the netcode is notoriously garbage? Can you tell NRS to fix it? Despite ALL OF TEST YOUR MIGHT and the INTERNET AT LARGE being extremely vocal about this...they don't seem to give a crap at all. You'd think by now a non-shit netcode might be a good idea (particularly for an online tournament...what the fuck.)

Sorry for the hostility but this is the 3rd fucking game now by NRS with a shit netcode. It's ridiculous!!! How much money do these developers need to design a netcode which is at least on par to a fucking indie fighting game like Skullgirls. NRS shits money and can't even do that...BULL FUCKING SHIT.

I sure hope the plan is to introduce ESL to PS4 players

Hi @Clutch8 , we all recently played season 2 top 8 and I believe everyone including myself had the worst online lag, so much so in a normal game I would just of tried a new host or quit because the games are so unbearably unplayable. Is there any resolve or idea too why this is the case? Usually in king of the hill vs foxy for example it's great connection , but in esl it was the worst connection we have ever had together :(, were from the same country too, the strange thing is I get better connection vs west coast USA :( than someone in England in my own country, is the person hosting the king of the hill also the person streaming with 3000 viewers on high quality? , is there any chance esl could help or take a look into this for their top 8s? It would be much better and more hype games if we can have better connection like we normally do, it's impossible to play Liu kang dragon fire in that :,( . many thanks and much respect to esl for being here and doing what they are doing for the community

Gotta love this response. Obviously NRS netcode is completely out of your control but, if you haven't heard, its quite a pile of dogshit.

I support ESL 100% because its an amazing online tournament, well run (for the most part), and the prizes are unreal compared to other online fighting game tournament.

Its a huge shame its for a game with possibly the worst netcode ever

since you give me the chance,i want to ask you something.
How do you feel that there is a n upcoming 100,000 tournament with your signature..........where Liu Kang has a block infinite combined with an armour breaking normal,and Tanya attending easy at grand finals with 2-3 hours practice the most,the day before the tournament?

Do not listen to this please, I have mained Liu kang since day one and there is NO such thing as a block infinite. This is bad and incorrect information, if anybody would like to write down this block infinite for me then I would love to hear it , as it does NOT Exist. People need to get there facts right. I will make a video on this tommorow, I don't understand why people think there is a block infinite lol

Please pm this block infinite that does not exist. Writing to esl is not the way to express your concerns about the false information of this game. Thanks.

Not to sound like a judgmental dick but I don't think it's worth bothering with him. I've bumped into him a couple of times online recently and he was pretty much a token month 1 Kung Jin that didn't hit confirm anything lol.
