MKXL Results from Evo 2016

[Tim Static]

This weekend, the world of Mortal Kombat converged on Las Vegas to determine who is indeed the real Top Dawg. Considered the Super Bowl of Fighting Game Tourneys, Evo is the World Championships. After an all day of pools on Saturday, the MKXL players had a short rest over night & were the first on the amazing stage set up at the Mandalay Bay Events Center....And the players did not disappoint. Kongrats to EVERY MK player who went & represented our community at Evo. 706 of you are probably disappointed, but TYM is proud of 707 of you. Check out the Results below:

[aldazo]

"Paulo García ruining everyone's christmas"... Aris

Couldn't have said it better.

 

[Braindead]

Tekken Master used Alien? Tim pls.

 

[Johnny Based Cage]

TekkenMaster da god made NRS grand finals more hype than they've ever been before. That was too good.

 

[Rathalos]

That was really good.
Sad I have to go to work right now.

And no KP3.
Oh well.

 

[Gesture Required Ahead]

Fox kind of looked like the underdog


'til he picked Alien lol

 

[shaowebb]

Final Form of SonicFox was revealed and my God was it crazy.
The true final challenge of MKX...Sonic Fox so serious he tosses aside the hat and is using Alien.
I've never seen him pushed so far before. That is by FAR the most difficult fight I've ever seen Sonicfox face.

 

[jmt]

Remember when there was gonna be a KP3 shown at EVO????

Oh well.

 

[BenGmanUk]

Meh I'm salty.

 

[pogse]

welp time for marvel. Grats to Sonicfox and TM. hope TM plays injustice 2

 

[Jaku2011]

I think I died a little inside when Sonic picked Alien.

 

[sinosleep]

Top 8 was so disappointing. 3 Aliens 3 Mileenas and 2 Sonyas. (

 

[Daemantalo]

GG Tekkenmaster. You were badass in your showing. BG Kotal was entertaining to watch, and I'm just going to say it the last minute Alien pick was hypekilling, even though if I was Sonic, I would have done the same pick. It doesn't make it any less dumb though.

 

[FrankOceansWaifu]

Sonic I love you man you're godlike and all but...
TM is my winner

 

[Mikemetroid]

Sonic could've picked Alien at any point and could've won. I applaud him for trying to win with Erron but it wasn't enough. Alien b o y z

 

[igotAhalo]

The second alien gets picked the hype gets killed for me. Probably the most boring character to watch in my opinion

 

[Lokheit]

Such an epic top8, not S tiers, finals were so close (huge props to Tekken Master)... and then you realize if Sonic were using Acidic all the time he probably wouldn't have lost a single round during the whole thing.

He is so good that he didn't need to use him until the last round of the finals reset, and congratulations to him for not trying it until the very very very end, the guy is just amazing. It just would have been prettier if there wasn't any need of the "Alien too OP" comments that are surely coming now and we could focus on how amazing all these players performed, but amazing tournament and Sonic is still the real thing.

It's a shame more people couldn't see it because of the hour.

 

[Hassun]

Kotal is the the best character in MKX. Alien is terrible.

;_;

 

[Cashual]

_The look_

YO. Best screen grab ever. Sonic going final form, looking PRESSED. Master glancing over, noticing Sonic bleed, looking collected. That was the best set in MKX history for my money in terms of stakes, unpredictability, character switching/counterpicking hype, skill, doubt of outcome. Just incredible. Had this taken place at 2pm PST or something, the entire FGC would've been buzzing heavy over it.

Proud of the MKX Top 8, there were nerves and a little sloppiness at times, but all in all, an incredible representation of the MK community. Props to all competitors, shit gave me goosebumps.

 

[errormacro7]

Damn, I wanted Tekken Master to win so much.

 

[omooba]

sonic fox is such a scrub. this is like the 3rd time he's been down in a tournament and switched to the most broke character in the game. first tanya then alien and another alien like bruh. props to tekken master. dude was hype as fuck

 

[Mighty Durpyena]

"Dragon Naginata beats Kotal 7-3"

 

[Charybdis]

TM is the official People's Champion of Evo. That shit was insanely hype until Sonic just shut it down.

God I hate Alien

 

[21122]

Man that was so hype!

Great KP3 announcement as well!
