GUESS WHO'S BACK ???
The PC MKX community on the North American side of the globe, to my knowledge, hasn't had much attention given to it but that's gonna change because NA WEEKLY LIVE is back and this time this event is here to stay.
We had a really good start last time we tried to host a tournament for the NA scene but unfortunately not soon after PC MKX support was dropped so I decided then to return the favor and drop the game.
Fast forward to the present and we have an improved netcode and the latest balance patch so there's nothing stopping me from hosting this again, if you live in the US or Canada and play on PC then this is your time to shine.
Looking forward to see some of my peeps in action real soon!
