OBS EMP REO Wins Mortal Kombat 9 at NECXIIII + Will Go To Video X Games for MK9 in 2013

[STORMS]

As the Mortal Kombat finale for the year of 2012 on the Northeast coast.... it's safe to say that we made some noise. We experienced several blow-ups and several pop-offs... by Zaf and K-Frog, especially. With over 100 players at this tournament, some of which have traveled from Texas, Florida, Canada, Puerto Rico and Australia! With both epic and historic matches taking place this weekend it was an honor to be a part of it and we thank those who watched the provided streams and supported it at home. While we tried to go above and beyond with two dedicated Mortal Kombat streams... we delivered and it is now time to Congratulate OBS EMP REO for taking Mortal Kombat 9 at NECXIII!



In addition to the NECXIII hype, Rolando was proud to announce that for winning Mortal Kombat =, REO will be going to the Video X Games in 2013!


Once again, Congratulations to OBS EMP REO for Winning Mortal Kombat at NECXIII!

Congrats REO as well as everyone else in top 8, great play all around

Man, reo really kills the hype though, chalk another one up for reo's broken ass kabal. The more reo wins, the more this game dies a slow death.

 

[Pig Of The Hut]

Congrats !

Very impressed with Tom Brady and very happy for SonicFox5000 (3-7 TOLD YOU)

Don't really need telepathy to know Kabal was going to win.

Thoughts:

1) Good shit Reo for getting through all those rough matches.

2) Big ups to Sawnik Fawx and Tom Brady for bringing the hype. Both these players are godlike with their characters.

3) Nice to see all the amazing Ermac players repping their character.

4) Fuck Cyrax. Character is laughably broken.

Maxter was undoubtedly outplayed. Wasn't a matchup issue.

3 straight Tourneys? Everybody switch their main to either Freddy, Lao or Liu immediately!

Congrats !

Very impressed with Tom Brady and very happy for SonicFox5000 (3-7 TOLD YOU)

lol pig, he played it like it was 4.5-5.5

Good job, REO. And amazing job, Maxter, u just need rly good high damaging resets for Cyblax.

 

[MK_Salivial]

Who was the bottom end of top 4?

 

[WayoftheFist]

So I think STORMS has 2 windows open with a topic ready to go for either grand finals outcome and just hits post on whichever one happens. Anyway... Congratulations to REO. Also to Sonic Fox for proving he could hang with the MLG players when people said he wouldn't have been top if MLG wasn't going on the same day as his other tournaments. Brady as well... coming through MU's like that to make top 8 with Sub is no easy task. Also Maxter for toppling his brother in tournament because correct me if I'm wrong that's a first time occurance. Great tournament.

Shout outs to the Marvel fanboys giving us views.

Grats Reo, and thanks to Brady for bringing the hype and playing outta his head, nice stuff, great tournament to watch,

respect to Fox

The grand finals are becoming the most boring part of tournaments now.
