Blue Blurs for Life!
With the dawn of Season 2, twelve Killer Instinct fanatics gathered at the Ultra Arcade in San Antonio to prove their worth. The brackets got a taste of new character action from TJ Combo, eclipsed only by a tsunami of green...Spinal's curse was afflicting the entire arcade through the combative efforts of a large portion of the bracket. In the end, it came down to a Grand Finals full of Spinal mirrors, from which UA Wholio emerged victorious! We extend our congratulations to him for making the comeback after being defeated in Winner's Finals by his opponent, Dat Salt!
Also, for those who missed it, here are two announcements released by the Ultra Arcade staff:
1) Let's get the bad news out of the way first - UltraFest, which was set for the weekend of Halloween this year, has been cancelled and will be held next year instead. Their reasoning is so they can ensure they do justice for the tournament when it does happen, as their efforts are going towards a loot of gold in their event they're holding this December, which will be addressed in the next notice. If you pre-regged for UltraFest this year, expect to be refunded.
2) Kombo Klash, set to take place on December 13th, is a Killer Instinct invitational to be hosted by Ultra Arcade, meaning that you must be invited by staff in order to participate. If you would like to be considered for an addition, please tweet UltraOdinson on Twitter. A $3,000 pot bonus will be up for grabs at their KI tournament, and the first place winner will be sponsored for a free trip to Japan. Yes, you read that correctly! More details will be released in a separate article soon.
If you're a Killer Instinct player wanting to hone his/her skills, do make it a point to attend Killer Fridays as often as you can! Events typically start at 8:00 P.M. CST and will be streamed at Ultra Arcade's Twitch channel. You may visit this thread for more information.
The brackets and archive can be seen below along with a match log of all streamed battles. Enjoy!
