KIT | Shinblade Wins MKX at Fight Night Arkansas!

ATP2014

The best mediocre Batman
The very first Fight Night Arkansas was a resounding success! Hosted and streamed by Panda x Gaming, we had people from Memphis, Shreveport, Dallas, Austin and Houston all converge on Mizewell Games in Conway, Arkansas last Saturday. In Mortal Kombat, we had 26 entrants for singles as well as a 4 vs 4 100 dollar team tournament between Texas, Memphis, Louisiana and Arkansas.

In singles, despite a couple mixups in the bracket, we had a top 8 filled with at least one representative from each region, each vying to win the 175 dollar pot bonus provided by Panda himself. On the winner's side, KIT | Shinblade managed to overcome his teammate KIT | LilMajin and the local hero ARK | Alpha Letters Soup to make it to Grand Finals. In the loser's side, UA | Showtime went on a tear through losers, sticking with Kano and defeating multiple opponents and reaching the grand finale.

These two opponents had last fought in CEO, where Shinblade eliminated Showtime en route to a Top 16 finish for the Memphis native. After a rough first set where Showtime reset the bracket 3-0, Shinblade made the necessary adjustments to clutch out the tournament and win it all.

Results!
1. KIT | Shinblade (Tempest Lao)
2. UA | Showtime (Cybernetic/Commando Kano, Covert Ops Sonya)
3. ARK | Alpha Letters Soup (Shirai Ryu Takeda)
4. LSE | Ominous (Pumped up Jax, War God Kotal)
5. KIT | LilMajin (Displacer Raiden)
5. ARK | Itachi Legend (Covert Ops Sonya, Full Auto Jacqui)
7. RS | Grolarbears (Ronin Takeda)
7. LSE | Toki (Relentless Jason)

Archives are below. Some losers matches were run off stream in order to finish the tournament in time. Team tournament goes from the beginning to 1:54:00, with Top 8 picking up there.
