What's new

Hi, I'm Joshua Gray, Creative Producer for ESL. AMAA (ask me almost anything)

Hey everyone,

We here at ESL America are very excited for the upcoming FATAL 8 tournament this weekend, along with the entire ESL Mortal Kombat X Pro League.

I have been working on this project since it's inception about 7 months ago. Feel free to ask any question. I will answer most of them to the best of my ability.
Hi Joshua, serious, non threatening, and non-trolling question for you. Would you be interesting in providing professional training to World Record holders on NRS titles to prepare for tournaments?

IMO the prize pools need to be higher. If it takes us funding a Kickstarter I'm down. People don't realize how much practice and sheer math it takes to get good at this game. It's like science. And science needs to be rewarded.

We actually do have a kickstarter going. Its called Blue Steel Sub zero. Buy it and funds go towards tournaments

Hey @Durango. You may sign up and play on Sundays. If you make the Top 16 you play on Wednesday. More information can be found here: esl.gg/MKXProLeague

We only have one more week until the season ends, but you can still participate and win a piece of the $1,000 weekly prize pool.
Aw man, I'm gonna be in Orlando for CEO. I'm gonna miss that one. :(

Also, the link isn't working.

Resolution through knowledge and resolve.
A season recap with highlights like what ESPN does would be a great thing.

Any plans for this?

Also, will ESL ever make it to TV? Maybe on Spike?

@Clutch8 Is the top 16 bracket at the Season Finals planned to take all 7 hours of the event? If not, what other things will be available to do for spectators? Casual stations, possibly?
 

huh

@Clutch8 could you clarify about how many from each region are going to the Final top 16?

In NA, it is top 8 from the season + Midseason winner = 9 qualifiers, or it is 8 qualifying, including Midseason winner? Or none of that?

You are shown two doors - one leading to hell and the second one to heaven and only the door guards know what is behind the doors. One guard is always lying and the other is always telling the truth (of course, you don't know who is lying). You can ask only one guard one question.
What question can get you to heaven?

If I asked the other guard, "Which door leads to heaven?", what would he tell me?

The honest guard would tell me the douche guard would lie and point me to hell. The scumbag guard would lie by showing me the door to hell, because the other guard would show me the door to heaven.

Now what does this have to do with MK?
