Wish us luck in Kansas City

This weekend, Kansas City is holding their monthly tournament "Maxout." I am making my fourth trip down there and I'm bringing Joker, our best Marvel player, along with me. This is a great event put on by John "Axiom" and Le "Radian" that has served as a good measuring stick for my tournament ability, and this time I anticipate it will be no different.

My first trip to Kansas City a couple of years ago was one of my first tournaments that I went to and I fell flat on my face and went 0-2. The next time I did a little better, then the last time I finished 5th. This time I'm aiming for the top, and so will Joker-- who I expect to do well after also failing to meet expectations when he first went to KC with me on my last trip.

Also populating our party will be Blank and Curtis "TopHat," who be both entering KOF as their main game. I expect a good performance from both but traveling and tourney nerves seem to take their toll on them more than other players. Regardless of performance, it should be a fun trip and a great experience. Curtis put it best when he said today, "If I go down there and get bodied hard in KOF-- I'll be happy."

~Wish us luck!
