My thoughts exactly…:sunglasses:

Nah… @SonicDolphin117 we are rooting for you too. I’ve seen your YT vids, so I know you’ve got some kill. I hope you do well too. Any idea who you’ll be rolling with as a main?

22

is Justin Wong actually playing KI again?

didn’t he quit in a rage a year or 2 ago?

23

Uh, everyone? XD

24

He probably won’t be playing, though this IS Evo, and many people enter just to enter. I wouldn’t be surprised to see him, or Chris G., or Floe enter KI…though I’d be HELLA surprised if either got to Top 8.

25

Honestly, that is what I thought you’d say, Lol! Good luck!

i really dont see rico making top8 this year. That thompson guys going to be top 3 though.

27

Man I have a feeling it’s going to be Thompson and Nicky again in Grand Finals. They’re both on a whole other level in this game.

28

Idk. I think sleep not settling for the bronze this year.

  1. Sleep. — Fueled by a desire to redeem himself.
  2. Bass. — He beats 99% of players when playing online. After some polish on his new S3 gameplay, he will crush them all.
  3. Nicky. — Fulgore has all the tools needed to win. He has his eyes on Tompsxon, and a little studying should seal the win against him.
  4. Thompsxon.
  5. Japanese player.
  6. Someone who plays KI, but only at large tourneys. Maybe Rico, or JWong,
  7. Some “wild card player”
  8. Japanese player.

Bonus: Emperor Rebelo makes his surprise re-appearance, and makes it into top 4.

I don’t know if any of you guys know about FUBUKI 142, but he’s a really good Kan-Ra player. I would love for him to goto EVO and place top 8. His gameplay is insane!!!

As for top 8, I can’t quite say tbh. I have a feeling there’s going to be a crap ton of playeres who are under-the-radar and they’re just going to destroy the competition. I do expect to see more Japanese players place. Apparently CatDrugs is saying that the JP KI community is going to come prepared (I’m paraphrasing). I’d expect to see OGTY place with his Arbiter. Sleep says he’s got Kan-Ra tech, but I never see him play the dude, so hopefully he just comes outta nowhere and busts Kan-Ra out making him seem like S2 all over again.

Thompxson is super hungry, and you can see it in his gameplay. I guarantee he’ll be responsible for at least 4 clutch moments in semi or grand finals.

I want a Wulf =’( I hope My God can make it as far as possible and show some Wulf gameplay vs all these new match ups (if he’s still playing with it). If another player appears with a new Wulf, I would like it too. But since MyGod has done great as a Wulf specialist and the best wulf player in this region is not playing KI in EVO this year, I don’t know anyone else. Don’t know, I may be surprised by another player.

I’m not eager to seeing certain characters win, honestly. I even would love Riptor, TJ or Omen in the finals. But I see it hard. Whatever happens, I’ll still enjoy the show and watching great players =)

Best of lucks people!!

Did you know Grimminz don’t play KI anymore… He stop playing.

He don’t play KI.

36

Why did grim stop playing?

37

I don’t know why because he didn’t tell us why he stop playing KI…

38

When did he stop?

39

I think it’s one year ago.

Ah so he played S2.
