Non-US Players Attending EVO [Underdog Discussion]

[miloPKL]

I was wondering how many players who are foreign to the US are attending EVO. I will keep a list of foreigners attending EVO on this first post as they are announced/made clear.

The UK guys have their donations and looks like they will be attending. That's at least Mustard-LK4D4 , Ketchup-LK9T9 , A F0xy Grampa, UsedForGlue among others who escape me right now [remind me here and i'll update this post].

Personally I want to see ETC Mcfly take back Kung Lao's throne. ETC McFly is the only Mortal Kombat player who can enter the Matrix, after all. I have watched a lot of McFly matches from tournaments in Chile and learned a lot from his gameplay. However I'm not sure if McFly attending as of yet.

I want to see more foreign challengers to the EVO throne. Which foreign players do you want to see at EVO and which foreign players do you believe has the biggest chance of making top 8 or even winning? Confirmed for attending or not, talk about the players you want to see at EVO.

I'd like to see Metzos at EVO. Find out if he's overhyping Ermac or if he's truly ahead of American Ermac players.

I love that foreign players are coming. It's adding hype and intrigue to set Evo apart from the other big tournies.

metzos13 - Evo needs metzos13

 

[McNasty]

Anyone from Japan. Frieda exposed human cyrax last year and had very unique set ups got top 64 and was fun to watch.

 

[ETC Mcfly]

@metzos13 is very good also i like to see him there and fight With Him
Were if traveling. anyway if I'm training very Strictly I get to go.

thanks friend x5iVE_STAR I value what you say and honored the option ...

 

[REO]

I'd like to see Crathen and DoctrineDark make it as well. We need more Kabal players in top 8.

 

[PND_Ketchup]

I'd love to see Crathen metzos13 and Hidan at evo. It's unfair to expect them to come of course, due to how bloody expensive it would be for them.

 

[1man3letters]

yea i 2nd metzos13 and Hidan, id love watching the greek tourny footage,
maybe because i cant understand what there saying so i can just watch the matches for what they are, awesome!
also 2nd Crathen, ETC Mcfly and DoctrineDark

also TONY-T would be awesome, hes from australia right?

I hope Helter Skelter is able to go, he's put just as much time and love into the game as the other UK lads that are going. Everyone here obviously would go to Evo for the experience first and foremost, but the investmentrize pool ratio is stacked highly against anyone from Europe, I don't really blame them for not taking the plunge out of their own pocket..

Wait, seriously? It had to take a Japanese player to show that Cyblax is legit? (I wasn't really following the game at the time he got discovered) This community baffles me sometimes, I remember when every Cyrax player bar Mustard and UFG thought the command grab nerf was the end all be all of Cyrax in general..

I think overhyping Ermac is the thing jejeje Ermac is not such a solid character as he claims him to be.

 

[AbeL]

Tony-T , Hidan , ETC Mcfly

 

[NogunYesknife]

Mcfly, Metzos, Moonspell.

 

[Death]

I Hope Mestoz comes to EVO

 

[Flagg]

Wasn't there that massive tournie in Uruaguay a couple months back where the winner went to EVO?

Unfortunately, Helter had to find a new job due to gamestation closing down all over the country, plus i believe he's looking for a new place in London. So he can't afford to go to EVO. He's really dissapointed he can't come, he was saving for it.

 

[PND_Ketchup]

I Hope Mestoz comes to EVO

Why do you keep getting his name wrong?

 

[ragnar0kz28]

Hope to see MCFLY from chile best kung lao ever.

 

[Zoidberg747]

1man3letters: I know he probably cannot come, but this is every Baraka players #1 wish. He would make a dent, for sure.
metzos13: Like everyone else says, it would be cool to see how better he makes the character look than anyone here(I do believe he would)
Hidan: He plays quan, quan is hella fun to watch
ETC Mcfly: KL is fun to watch
Under_The_Mayo: Very knowledgeable player
@Tony_T: Oh god this would be so fun to watch

That is my wishlist. Probably forgot some, but oh well.

 

[PND_Mustard]

this is the firsat thing that comes to mind every time someone gets Metzos's name wrong.

You Brits and you weird products.

 

[Purple Haze]

If Ryan Hart is showing up again he better have a better Kabal than last year.

J360 is the one who exposed Human Cyrax, at least for the US scene. He gets full credit for that one.

He doesnt play MK, which just makes that gif an even sadder story, its like raping bambi or something

I'm sorry but if you're a professional gamer by trade and you can't beat a cosplaying transvestite casual gamer who looks like Balrog in a dress then you have to take your share of the blame for getting beaten.

 

[Metzos]

Omg wtf is that ? Domestos... Weird stuff.
