In spite of the issues that dominated the Saturday streams, I thank Kombat Network for doing all they can to help the viewers experience a great event with them in spirit. Thanks also go to
@BigE for constantly outdoing himself every year when it comes to improving upon his events, particularly NEC.
Special mentions go to those I've played, be it in tournament or at the casuals:
@YOMI REO
@Killer Xinok
@Beyond Toxin
@D. R.
@EVB_VenDeTTa
@Big D
@Conflict_90
@YOMI DJT
@zaf
@hayatei
And there are a few others I did play, but unfortunately their TYM handles escape my memory (if they do have accounts here).
Shout-outs to the Killer Instinct scene for being as awesome as usual, but most importantly...
@YOMI Zyphox
@YOMI_SLAYER
@Hitbox_Tyrant
@YOMI RM Glass Sword
@michaelangelo
@YOMI REO (yes, I tagged him twice, deal with it)
A resounding THANK YOU to my Yomi Gaming family for overturning my odds and ensuring my attendance for NEC. At first it looked like the event was a no-go, but the team would have none of that. After receiving this experience, it would have soured me in another reality to miss out.
If you guys will be at Kumite in Tennessee, or perhaps at the Killer Instinct World Cup in San Antonio, I'll see you there.
