Gunslinger since pre patch (sh/out to The Farmer)
Alright so I've been super busy over the last while but I've finally got all the Glasgow Kombat stuff done from the last two or three months. There haven't been many brackets lately due to lower numbers than usual but that hasn't dampened the hype! Instead of throwing huge buzzword-filled descriptions of what's happened over the last weeks at you I'm just going to let you all enjoy the archives that we managed to get :p Below are the results, top 3 pics and archives for all of the past weeks a bracket has been run:

Glasgow Kombat #11:
1st. Nausea (Master of Souls/Spectral Ermac / Dragon Fangs Goro)
2nd. Youphemism (Gunslinger Erron Black / Grandmaster Sub Zero / Blood God Kotal Kahn / Kuatan Warrior Goro / Shotgun Jacqui)
3rd. Superjohn (Assassin Kitana)


Commiserations to:
Rocket (Hellfire/Inferno Scorpion)
Suleymon (War God Kotal Kahn / Crystalline Tremor)
Ricey (Hollywood Cassie Cage)
Azarath (Venomous D'Vorah)
Scott the Scot (Hollywood Cassie Cage / Relentless Jason)

The full bracket can be found here: http://www.challonge.com/mkglasgow11



Glasgow Kombat #12:
1st. Nausea (Master of Souls/Spectral Ermac)
2nd. Youphemism (Cybernetic Kano / Balanced Kenshi / Ronin Takeda / Relentless Jason)
3rd. Scott the Scot (Hollywood Cassie Cage)

Quick note: We actually had a new player turn up this week, and he's a friend of @cR Xarakamaka ! He goes by Moukton and plays Shaolin Kung Jin, Venomous D'Vorah and Hish Qu Ten (at least) and although he did end up going 0-2 he put up a good fight! Shame we haven't seen him back since :(


Commiserations to:
Azarath (Venomous D'Vorah)
Ricey (Hellfire Scorpion / Hollywood Cassie Cage)
Moukton (Shaolin Kung Jin / Venomous D'Vorah / Hish-Qu-Ten Predator)

The full bracket can be found here: http://www.challonge.com/mkglasgow12



Glasgow Kombat #13:
1st. Youphemism (Special Forces Sonya / Ancestral Kung Jin)
2nd. Nausea (Spectral Ermac)
3rd. Ricey (Hellfire Scorpion)

Another quick note: We had another new player turn up in the form of stream (and Blood God Kotal Kahn) monster rustyb4nana! He definitely threw a few people off with his tight-knit game but, at least for this week, it wasn't enough. He DID however pull off the Sun Ray brutality at the end of a round against me that caught me off guard, make sure to watch that match!


Commiserations to:
Azarath (Venomous D'Vorah / Noxious Reptile)
Suleymon (Crystalline Tremor / War God Kotal Kahn)
Superjohn (Assassin Kitana)
Scott the Scot (Hollywood Cassie Cage / Summoner Quan)
Rustyb4nana (Blood God Kotal Kahn)
Rocket (Inferno/Ninjutsu Scorpion / Balanced Kenshi)

Glasgow Kombat #14:
1st. Youphemism (Special Forces Sonya / Ronin Takeda)
2nd. Scott the Scot (Hollywood Cassie Cage)
3rd. Rustyb4nana (Blood God Kotal Kahn)

In his second week here rustyb4nana managed to scream his way up to top 3! One of our most improved players and personally one of my most nerve-wracking opponents. It's always a close one... Good job!
We also had ANOTHER two new players turn up! IAmWeasel and his friend Christ Killmore managed to head over with confidence they'd do well. Unfortunately they didn't make top 3 but it's rare that anyone does on their first week, let's hope they come back soon and show us up :) Hopefully the influx of new players continues with the introduction of Kombat Pack 2 and hopefully we get more that make it back the next week lol.


Commiserations to:
Azarath (Venomous D'Vorah)
IAmWeasel (Summoner Quan / Inferno Scorpion)
Christ Killmore (Cryomancer Sub Zero / Cutthroat Kano)
Rocket (Balanced/Possessed Kenshi)

Glasgow Kombat #15:
1st. Nausea
2nd. rustyb4nana
3rd. Scott the Scot

This week actually saw one of GK's first players return, Esler! He decided to jump in the bracket with his Bojutsu Jin having been out for a while and although he was unsuccessful with his past variation he helped make the bracket a lot of fun.


Commiserations to:
Ricey (David)
Superjohn (John)
Youphemism (Paul)
Esler (Ryan)
Suleymon (Assad)

No bracket for this last week I'm afraid, capture card issues arose unfortunately and we just decided it wasn't worth restarting it over and over. Same reason there's no variations listed, it was so long ago I can't remember lol.


So that's all the Glasgow Kombat weeks caught up on now. This coming Tuesday (numbers permitting) will be Glasgow Kombat #16 and the first Glasgow Kombat bracket since KP2's release.....and we're letting them in! Anything goes, any character or variation you like. Feel like melting your opponents health away with Acidic Alien? Want to go crazy with Leatherface? Do you feel the need to fart or vomit as Bo Rai Cho? Ready to represent the Tekunin in kombat? Come along and try your luck against some of the best MK players in Scotland, or even just come along for casuals and to level up and to learn some more about the Kombat Pack 2 characters. That's what we're here for :D


Of course if there are more Scots near enough the Glasgow area reading this that would like to get into competitive MK then feel free to come along and join in! You don't even have to take part in the tournament if you don't want to, you're welcome to come play casuals in MK9, Injustice or MKX with us all night if that's what you prefer. Either way we're to help you out as much as we can, it helps us too :) Anyone interested in coming along can join the Facebook group here : http://www.facebook.com/groups/GlasgowKombat or those that don't have Facebook can just come visit, we run every Tuesday night at MaxXP Gaming: 29-31 Duke St, Glasgow from 3:30pm to 9:30pm. If you're getting the train go to Glasgow Central then get another to High Street, MaxXP is just round the corner! Entry fee is £3. Tournament signups start at 6pm and the tournament starts at 6:30pm.

dont know if it matters but losers and grand finals on #14 aren't there
Yeah losers finals messed up so we didn't record grand finals either. Rusty pulled off a fucking awesome parry at one point though against Scott in losers finals, I recorded it on my phone. If I decide to upload that at some point I'll put it in.

@Youphemism thanks man. But i noticed we need an update on the avatar & logo for GK. :coffee:

Glasgow_MKX_logo.jpg

Probably be best to just use Glasgow Kombat instead of MKX or MKXL Glasgow

Take your pick:


I really like the idea of using the Scottish flag in the logo, but not a fan of either one personally. Maybe get the group together to work on it or something? I'll need the avatar sized one like you just posted, but also larger banner sized (about 800 to 1000 x 400) for the front page too. :)

Do you have something in mind you'd like? We forgot to discuss it on Tuesday since we were too busy messing with KP2 lol
