[D-Que Beats]

If you guys look at the picture of Kevo vs. Pig posted on the page you can see me sitting on the far left of the picture in the camo hat... Right next to me is a BLIND GUY who's girlfriend was giving him the full play by play as each match went on!!!!! Dedication....
To all the people WHO DIDN'T SHOW UP from the midwest... WTF... A guy who who couldn't even see the matches showed up... Where were you?

yo i was sitting next to him too...epic

 

[Pig Of The Hut]

well done to kevo

was rooting for pig to win it though
slips played so amazing aswell

Really appreciate the support

Shoutouts to premade congratulating texts.

and to KevoDaMaN because he's the man, man.
I've always said that the guy's got talent.

Oh and Pig Of The Hut

thanks

Enjoy it while it lasts, haters. Congrats Kevo. Now all Pig needs to do is join CDjr and pick up Kabal. We all need to invade EVO.

Already on it

expect to see nothing but kabal online and offline upcoming locals....no joke

Been working on it, he just wasnt ready for this past weekend

Kabal Kombat 9 it is

Congrats to Kevo...and lol at dat awkward "YEAH" that he made. I still hate Kabal though....oh and good shit to pig, dizzy, and slips (especially slips...dem godlike scorpion reads).

Thanks

Love how Kevo gets shit for being an auto pilot Kabal; Pig disabled all his zoning and Kevo looked top notch at what people said he doesn't do.

It's not Kabal; its REO and Kevo.

Congrats to all top 8, that was a blast to watch!

Kevo is top 3 Kabal EASILY and top 5 player imo

Pure beast

 

[Pig Of The Hut]

On The Edge II, Console Combat, Toryuken, Comicpalooza, UFGT8.

KUH-BAWLS

And soon to be MLG and evo

CD Jr playing Kabal? Everyone and everything is fucked... Including REO.

Its the beginning

Join the dark side now

An entertaining Top 8. Slips was on fire in some of those matches. His match vs Dizzy was amazing, great comeback from Dizzy. Dizzy was actually showing some hype, I think it was during his great match vs Pig. That was great to see. Come on Dizzy, release the Cage within you! ;-)

Congrats to Kevo, his reaction after winning the 2nd game in grand finals was hilarious! Pig fought well! Congrats to everyone else too!

Finally, I liked how 16-bit subtly inserted words of praise for MK9 while commentating by mentioning that there's no comeback mechanics in MK9 and that the breakers and the meter system is really good. Well done!

We have nothing but respect for each other

We stayed in room together (1,2 5TH AND 9TH place was in room 669) Room of the weekend?

 

[Pig Of The Hut]

Pig Of The Hut picking up Kabal now too?!

Absolutely

No question

he'll take a lil time but he's coming

 

[A F0xy Grampa]

So many Kabals, only 1 UsedForGlue

 

[Pig Of The Hut]

so KevoDaMaN will you make anaheim now?? you did get a pretty nice pay out

he'll be at ECT

Congratz KevoDaman, you have showed yourself and your skills at playing this game, great performance using Kabal, not everyone can control kabal at full potential like you and Reo.
I believe the guessing games with Kabal are mindfuckers but only a good player can make good use of them.
Will Kabal rule forever or will we need an Evil force to stop him?
Gratz Kevo well deserved. Still the MVP of this tournament is Slips, his performance was outstanding. Gratz Pig for taking second Place and gratz dizzy for third.

Im becoming the charles barkley of mk9

I wanted Pig of the Hut to win just so MKU would have to run a thread entitled 'Congratulations Pig of the Hut'.

LMAO

No it'd be more like this..........there was a tourney this weekend? Oh wait lets go copy tym info and post it here too lol

congrats to all and kevo. good showing by everyone. is kabal a bad matchup for kabal? i was wondering why pig didnt used him for kevo. i didnt see the finals.

My kabal is 2 weeks new and very raw but that'll change

First off, shoutouts to Osu 16 Bit, Tom Brady, Pig Of The Hut, Slips, and others for letting me chill with them all on Saturday night in their hotel room. You guys are a fun group to hang out and play this game with.

Also, shoutouts to the people that I met for the first time including @stb brainstorm, Gruntypants, Killphil, Rude, IKizzLE, and KevoDaMaN.

And to Goldfishkeeper for providing me with what was a very hype match to watch as she laid the smackdown on Justin Wong's CANDY ASS!

And GGA: proving once again to be a group of fun and ultra cool guys to hang and play this game with. Looking forward to Shang Tsung's Fight Night II, next month. Going to be bringing the rest of the Indy crew with me, too. So prepare for it to get LOUD!

But now, pictures!

Spoiler

And now, I rest until the next tourney.

Awesome meeting you

wish we could have played a lot more

wow Pig of the Hut congrats to 2nd place! And finally congrats all 8 top players =) very good stuff. It was interesting to watch our fights.

thanks man

appreciate it!

pig would blow u up every possible way....with every possible character

I have blown it up in every way possible and in every game


Dirtylova has some of the worst FG fundamentals ever


Doesnt support any scene in CA and is known for being a worthless troll


oh and he works for mku...............pfft

It takes so much balls to play Scorpion like Slips. He's my hero <3

Cannot wait for the next KTP.

Wait till you hear all the Steak n shake stories

Mannnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn

Those 2 hours were better than the tourney for me lol

How I became Pro-Piggy: Watching Impact Clash, my first time ever watching/seeing the faces and fighters of the ATL, and saying to myself "Metalhead hair, plays a nasty Mileena, and his name is Pig of the effin' Hut, this is the guy I must root for." Awesome fights with Fly & Von Vitti + saddening defeat at the hands of Ermac + the only Mileena player back then I'd EVER root for as my hatred for her then burned like a really, really big fire = Pro-Pig Box.

<3

LOL too soon man!!!

Anyways, congrats to KevoDaMaN taking the whole thing.

I wonder when the Kabal madness will end...

When mk10 comes out and BRC returns

When you show everyone your Ermac at CEO. I know you've only been leveling up since your last tournament. I still need to play you man. Need you to help me level up if you don't mind.

Congrats to KevoDaMaN ,but Slips was the one everyone is talking about.

It feels like slips won ufgt lol

 

[NRF CharlieMurphy]

It feels like slips won ufgt lol

Anyone who gets 4th or higher in a tourney with Scorpion is a winner. LOL

I still wish you'd use someone other than Kabal.... just to beat the shit out of the other Kabals.

Especially since you preach PLAYER tier and not Character....

 

[STB Sgt Reed]

Already on it

Kabal Kombat 9 it is

Pig... I'm no longer a groupie.

Quotations of peace...

 

[16 Bit]

Steak & Shake was legendary. "Excuse me, this is important"

 

[CrimsonShadow]

I said it before, but watching Chris G take the walk of shame back up the spectator aisle with Pig standing there triumphantly in the back was a truly hilarious moment.

No words were said, but there was a thought bubble above Pig's head with a giant "F*** YEAH" face in it.

 

[Lt. Boxy Angelman]

When mk10 comes out and BRC returns

It feels like slips won ufgt lol

Both 100% true statements.

Soon, the cooler thing to do than playing Kabal will be NOT playing Kabal.

And I cannot fucking wait for the return of the Fat Man.
I'm gonna puke on so many people, they're gonna name a gastrointestinal disease after me.

 

[GNG Iniquity]

Absolutely

No question

he'll take a lil time but he's coming

Aw man! You're gonna make me root for Kabal after all?! Damn! On a positive note, at least there'll be Kabal(s) in the South now!

 

[Under_The_Mayo]

More people playing Kabal. Yeah, that's fine and all. But if we get an Evo top 8 with 5 Kabals, we will have become the very game we were mocking a year ago. Tekken 6. And this game truly will die. Bob Bob Bob Bob Bob Bob Bob Bob.

 

[BigMilk]

he works for mku?...nuff said lol. anyway glad to hear Pig Of The Hut is joining the tribe of nomads. but personally i would like to see you abusing people w kung lao ex teleport shenanigans and ex dive and grind hat shenanigans. even raiden since they are dying.

 

[IKizzLE]

Get blown up by scorpion, receive no props for 5th.....

No one's gonna believe it until it happens.

I hope it doesn't, but it seems inevitable at this point.

Kenshi was there?

 

[AK L0rdoftheFLY]

At least kabal is tougher to use than bob button mashing d1 (I thnk) over and over.

 

[REYTHEGREAT]

Pig I'm dumb, I meant to say why you didn't used kenshi against kabal. Is that a bad match up for kenshi?

 

[Under_The_Mayo]

Pig I'm dumb, I meant to say why you didn't used kenshi against kabal. Is that a bad match up for kenshi?

It's....frustrating. Kenshi is great against him in the corner with SC pressure, air control, and armor. Kabal is great against him midscreen cause he outzones him and exploits the big hitbox.

Anyone who gets 4th or higher in a tourney with Scorpion is a winner. LOL

I still wish you'd use someone other than Kabal.... just to beat the shit out of the other Kabals.

I have a lot to say about that as well soon

im undecided but lets be real here, i have 2 weeks

Look at history man

Look at sf2, sf 4, ae, tekken, umk3

etc

Pig Of The Hut, *coughkunglaocough*

Idk man

Maybe Lao for me

I will say I'd prefer picking up kabal knowing I get to counter pOke anything w f4 into dash cancel pressure 50/50 safe mix ups into frame traps

Again all because someone tried to poke me

Kabal is f ing god in Mk 9

Mileena off a counter pOke can be +2 on hit into a 14 frame starter that gets blown the f up

Or I could throw ? Nope

B3 ? Nope

Jump over pressure? Negative

Mil vs kabal is a slot machine
Proposed answers to kabal: skarlet reptile Lao or a UK rain
