Competitive Player Coming to SCV from Mortal Kombat

CaliMaestro

[01] Neophyte
Hello all,

I just wanted to take a second to introduce myself. I'm coming to SCV from the Mortal Kombat scene (my main game). I'm an established tournament player in the MK tournament scene here in SoCal and have competed at several majors, placing top-10 at the ReveLAtions major earlier this year. You can see a ton of my tournament footage at http://www.youtube.com/user/CaliMaestroMK

I've been following a few other fighters this year, but SCV has had my attention the most. I fell away from the SC series after SC2, but with the game announced for EVO I am really looking forward to coming back.

I've had a few chances to play the game, and really like what I've seen so far. I'm a producer in the video game industry, so between conventions I've worked at and majors such as SoCal Regionals where the game was playable, I've had my hands on it a few times. The game feels really nice, and I'm really excited about it. Can't wait for EVO!

Thanks a lot everyone, I look forward to being a part of the community =)

Because it doesn't stack up at competitive level, pretty much everything that it does at least reasonably well has been done and is being done better by other fighters still going competitively. That and the fact it gets patched so often that it makes life harder for anyone trying to take it seriously. The only thing it has in its favour that's head and shoulders above the rest is gore, but I'm a nurse - I see more gore at work, lol.
And I speak from experience - I've finished top 8 in a MK9 tournament myself. (Take all comers, London)

Not a bad fighter to learn how to play FG's on, I will admit, but as a competitive main game? I just don't see the appeal. =/
