The Final Round 17 Schedule, Updates and Hype Thread

[CrimsonShadow]

Update @ 4:07 PM EST Stream now live w/ Injustice Pools! Tune in: http://www.twitch.tv/kombatnetwork

After much anticipation, weeks of training, and numerous predictions, callouts, and level-ups, the 17th edition of Final Round is finally upon us -- and with it, one of the most hotly anticipated and densely packed Injustice events since the tournament rebirth of the game's current edition at NEC. Featuring a list of some of the game's most recognized players (including KDZ, PerfectLegend, Rico Suave, ForeverKing, SonicFox, DarthArma, Pig of the Hut, REO, Tom Brady, 16 Bit, PimPimJim, and more), this weekend is looking to be one of the most explosive and unpredictable tournaments of the year.

And with a stacked 5v5 team tournament happening today alongside Mortal Kombat 9 Singles, and Injustice pools tomorrow, there's a lot of goodness for NetherRealm fans to enjoy this weekend.

SCHEDULE (EST):

Friday
2 PM - Mortal Kombat 9, http://twitch.tv/kombatnetwork
Afterward - Injustice 5v5 Tournament and Exhibitions

Saturday
10 AM - Injustice: Gods Among Us Pool Play, http://twitch.tv/kombatnetwork

Sunday
11 AM - Injustice Top 8, http://twitch.tv/teamsp00ky

Let's go!!

*We are still waiting for the stream's scheduled 2 PM EST start time.

[TotteryManx]

The stream is at twitch.tv/KombatNetwork.

@CrimsonShadow I read a post by DMS that said the complete schedule is up for the games at Eventhubs, but I can't find it. You have any luck?

 

[Hruza Da Bruza]

@Emperor DMS will be tweeting out all Mortal Kombat Updates today! Follow him @DevilMaySpy

He was probably talking about this: http://www.eventhubs.com/news/2014/mar/14/final-round-17-and-curleh-mustache-live-stream-feat-infiltration-gamerbee-justin-wong-nychrisg-pr-balrog-and-more/

I predicted Darth to take this going into it, but after hearing REO was going and seeing his play lately, I'm sorry @DarthArma I am officially a member of the REO speedwagon. I still have Darth second place though.

 

[RiBBz22]

Is the $1000 MM between P2W and Rico confirmed or still up in the air?

 

[CrimsonShadow]

1 hour after scheduled stream time -- I wish I couldn't say we've been here before, but we have. I know there's probably a reason for it; but you've got to give people updates.

 

[Gesture Required Ahead]

Fuck I'm going to miss MK9 D:

 

[rpg]

Ill still be at work at 2 but i will be out for the injustice teams,.. Hopefully =D

 

[Impractical Joker]

Of course the stream doesn't work for the couple of hours that I don't have something to do... Oh well, at least I'll catch some Injustice tomorrow but I would have rather watched MK9

 

[REDRUM]

its almost 4 is MK9 on ?

 

[FrozenG3oX]

its almost 4 is MK9 on ?

You should know...you're a mod on the chat

 

[TotteryManx]

What a disaster.

 

[legion666]

16bit is going to pop off at KN so much!!!! I mean we all should- looks like there verizon device isn't working

 

[legion666]

At least top 8 Gonna be on Spooky. Damn wanted some Mk action!!!

 

[Mikemetroid]

I wish people would realize that Shock and his crew are doing their best and they just traveled 12+ hours just to run a tournament.

If you can do better, I'd like to see you do so.

 

[TotteryManx]

LOL...if you don't stream your game/event you lose viewers and lose a opportunity to introduce people to that scene. Which could bring more people out to support it down the line. Lets stop downplaying the importance of streaming now.

 

[AK elitegoomba]

stream monsters always act so entitled to streams when it doesn't even cost you a dollar... just be patient, they are doing the best they can and the stream will be up when they can have it up

 

[Pig Of The Hut]

Going to my car now grabbing my stream stuff

 

[xKhaoTik]

Unless you guys have nothing else better to do with your lives, shut up and be patient.

 

[CrimsonShadow]

Going to my car now grabbing my stream stuff

Thanks for being willing to save the day again -- are your costs covered?

 

[RunwayMafia]

Well, let's just say it's hard to do much worse. I'm sorry, I really don't mean to be a dick, but this line of thinking is faulty. Nobody's saying Shock doesn't try. Nobody's saying he doesn't do a lot for the community. Nobody's saying he does this on purpose. We're just saying this is getting almost embarrassing. If you screw something up EVERY TIME, then something is really wrong.

Before this turns into "stream monsters are ungrateful," keep this in mind: we are grateful...when something is actually streamed.
