Final Round, a long running east coast major tournament and part of this year's Road to Evo Tournament Season is taking place in Atlanta, GA this weekend and Iowa has a single representative. Thomas "Blank Mauser" Luvan, will be competing in MvC3 singles and Melty Blood: Actress Again singles. Blank is definitely one of Iowa's strongest in Marvel and also a force in the midwest in Melty. However, he lacks tournament experience-- this will be his second tournament ever in non-Smash titles. Even so, I believe Blank is strong-willed enough for that not to be a factor. The only question is, will a complete lack of practice in both games leading up to the event be enough to inhibit him? I will try to keep you updated. This blogger and I'm sure all of Iowa, wish him luck!
But wait, there's more! My good friend and certified Marvel 2 scrub, Jay "Indianaz Finest" Hartford is also there to compete in Marvel. A solid player that relies on his Marvel 2 experience to out muscle his opponents, Jay still needs to work on core fundamentals. With that said, Jay is coming off a strong 2nd place finish at his local Purdue University Ranbat this past week. He's hungry for victory. We'll see how he does. Good luck Jay!
Look for them on the stream.
