taken from srk. lets get some MK love up north.

 

[Jimmypotato]

Nice, don't know why I didn't put this in the tourney part in the first place lol. Pre register now http://www.canada-cup.ca/register-now.html

 

[Jimmypotato]

This event is only a month away, Get hype Canada!!! If your within distance to make this, do it!!!!

Register before Oct 5th because the venue fee goes up after that.

All the info you could want is on there website http://canada-cup.ca/

 

[Jimmypotato]

Bump, you never know when someone new might come check out a thread, if your in the area get your ass here in NOV!!

 

[Pig Of The Hut]

So who is going to this?

 

[Altaire]

So who is going to this?

I am going.

To win.

Watch the stream, maybe you'll learn how to play a Cyber Sub that isn't trash!

Okay so now that I've met my daily trolling quota, I'm going, as is Jimmypotato, Neorussell, Merlando, Nevaranoia (I think?) and Burzy. Russell plays a mean Kitana, Burzy plays Nightwolf/Quan Chi, Jimmy plays Kitana/Skarlet, and Merlando plays Raiden. All in all, this should be pretty interesting. Pig, we're definitely going to have to get some more games in, I have some Cyber Sub tech to test with you for my guide and I'll need it at the tourney.

 

[Jimmypotato]

So who is going to this?

It's considered a Major for Street Fighter and Marvel. There are a Shit fuck ton of top Street fighter players from all around the world going.

Talking to the organizers they expect to hit there cap of 500 very soon.

So out of that many people from the US and japan and god knows where else I'm hoping a buncha randoms sign up for MK to and surprise the Canada Cup people. 40+ would be a great accomplishment for MK at this tourny. I know Burzy can't make it now, which is too bad, but there will be really good players from Sask, Ontario and Alberta there.

Hopefully it goes well,

 

[MoFuzz]

Would like to attend (coming from Vancouver)

However, looked at flight costs and it would be around $350 round trip plus hotel costs.

Why are Canadian flights so expensive. Yarrrrgh

[NeoRussell]

Thank god I have a converter.

[funkdoc]

I heard MK9 is already over there and won't be streamed. Any confirmation?

 

[16 Bit]

It's true. Justin Wong over Shujinkydink in the grand finals.

 

[Krayzie]

It's true. Justin Wong over Shujinkydink in the grand finals.

Justin Wong beat Shujinkydink?

 

[16 Bit]

Yeah from what I understand Justin put him in losers earlier. Dink came back, reset it, was 2-0 then choked and couldn't close it out.

Chocked on the Koolaid.

Who was top 8?

 

[VIDA]

So MK and BBCS2 didnt get streamed, while ST was...wow, amazing respect for non-capcom games. Awesome, keep up the good work [/sarcasm].

Anyways congrats to w1nter and Russel making top 4.

 

[16 Bit]

All I know is top 4 was Justin, Jinky, Winter Warz and Neo Russel.

Somewhere in bottom of top 8 was Jimmy Potato and possibly Altair.

 

[Georgie]

They streamed boring ass Street fighter II over MK?:flamethrower:

 

[STORMS]

Who did they use?

Wong, Raiden?
Dink, Quan?
W1nter, ?
NeoRussel, ?

 

[VIDA]

It should be:

w1nter: Cyrax
NeoRussel: Kitana/Mileena

They def played their mains, but not sure if they switched to their alts at any point. russel probably did.

[SwordEclipse]

Im pretty sure anyone would get pissed off at your Quan chi. Even I was pissed off when I got beat by your Quan chi ending my advancement in the brackets. Block traps or whatever u want to call that is frowned upon so being trolled is to be expected, even from high level players like Justin Wong.

All in all good video though and congrats on your second place finish in the Canada cup.

 

[Jimmypotato]

Thanks for the shout out man,

you shoulda told me JWongg said that shit after the tournament, we coulda found his short little ass and beat him till he said he loved MK, lol

Awesome Medal man!!!! The first of many to come if you ask me. You played great, was great to meet you man. Cant wait till the next time, I'll buy you a beer.

the general consensus is that its viable.
