[Ssj4Crisis_x]

anyone know when the stream will be put up in the archives? I wanna see the Tyrant vs Reo match

 

[Big Pampering]

PL!! Damn DJT Really proved himself after losing to brady

 

[CRUM]

Grats to DetroitBalln, was psyched to see him take the tournament. I think he was completely underrated going into the tournament. His knowledge about the game speaks volumes for the variety of characters he can play. All I was thinking about was how he pulled Ermac out of no where at the Spring Arena and almost beat CD Jr. Great tournament overall, completely hype.

 

[NariTuba]

Fantastic tournament! Congratulations Detroit, proving he's right up there with the best!

 

[A F0xy Grampa]

GJ Perfect Legend, glad to see you applying all the Jax talk we give you

 

[Velvet Sack]

Congratulations, DetroitBalln! This was the best MK tournament ever, and I'm so happy that you won. I knew you could do it!

 

[GamerBlake90]

Detroit deserves this. Anybody who questions that fact is out of their mind.

CONGRATS, BROTHA!

 

[TylerLantern]

Great job Detroit! You deserve it bro. Congrats to all of the Top 16, all of you guys are amazing players of this game we all love.

does anybody know what places were in this tourny 1-8?

 

[N0rdicNinja]

Damn this was intense!

i think cd jr picked up a couple of habits from playing tyrant. he was doing more air gotcha grabs then Ive ever seen him do since their match @ EGP. Great Matches.

Tyrant is the most dynamic Jax player out there, CD Jr has done nothing wrong learning from Tyrant in my opinion, I believe it tells us Tyrant is no joke. We all just have to admit that Tyrant is for real and he just needs more play time with the best out there to get used to the high level match up. Then the beast will be unleashed. Good tournament, props to the top 16. And ghostwriteous, you got good eyes for noticing the new Jr courtesy Tyrant. Lol

 

[Juggs]

Not gonna lie, I was very surprised by Denzell, Tryant and PL's performance. Especially Denzell, he showed everyone that he's one of the best player's in the world.

So who took REO out? They never said. Did he make top 8?

 

[virtiqaL]

Congrats to Detroit.

And props to PL as well.

Tyrant knocked him out of Winners 3-0 and 16bit beat REO 3-1. REO did NOT make top 8.

Congrats @DB!
Great tournament it was...I'm starting to regain faith in upcoming EVO

Kitana beat Kabal? KTP has to come back for this.

 

[WakeUp DP]

Now that PL beat Cd Jr. Is he gonna go back a hide again, so he doesn't have to rematch cd Jr lol

You are a pure PL hater, suck it. Nobody wins forever, just appreciate the scene and the players and don't start a war please. Both players are good and have my maximum respect. We pray for a lot more great matches between them and the other top players cos we love it.

Actually Pl was the reason I started playing Kl, I think he is the best kl player in the world. I Got mad respect for him but i just call it like I see it. He did the same with Reo.

This was the best tournament I've ever seen. Props to MLG and Tom Brady for the amazing action and commentary.

Congratulations to Detroit. He is top level shit.

Also, congrats to PL for bouncing back after the last MLG. He beat a lot of good players and evened the series with Denzell. It came down to the wire. This whole thing probably pissed Pig off...I expect him to make a lot of noise at EVO.

 

[sn1kzZe]

I'm still still in shock from DJT pulling xray cancel into grab :O

 

[REDRUM]

Congrats to DetroitBalln he played with ice water in his veins all the way through!

This tourney was epic and to be honest its good it turned out this way (well sort of ).... The MK9 scene needs more diversity if youre looking at it on a higher scale. If NY woulda won again the scene would feel embarrased to a certain degree..

Seeing things like PL compose himself and win those matches as well as 16 Bit makes for good drama leading into EVO..


Also the way Denzell composed himself was gdlk after losing badly to Tom, it was good to see that he could "wake up" from the dead and do what he did...


Best performance might have to go to Tom Brady ! That commentary was g-like!
