MORTAL KOMBAT EURO CHAMPIONSHIP 2011 (Gadget Show NEC)

Victory speech from Ryan Neal - UK and EUROPEAN MORTAL KOMBAT CHAMPION 2011!!! The tournament was awesome, packed to the rafters with an audience who were already attending the Gadget Show at the N.E.C Birmingham.

The European final featured contestants from as far flung as Romania, Greece and Belgium, but it was Ryan who gave an awesome display that won him the trip to Netherrealm's offices in Chicago and whole load of other goodies!!

The final also featured a guest appearance from Sonya Blade and Maleena...in the flesh!!!

@mitzanu2007 i played a few matches in the fights they did before the tournament, there was no lag, only more to take in as it was on a huge screen, no matter how much slowdown certainly not a whole second, was a real fun tourney to watch too! :)

@mitzanu2007 check the forums - Cage was banned because there was a glitch in the demo that could make him unbeatable. Fair enough I say...Let's face it, if you can't play another character, you shouldn't be competing :)

lol i'm friends with ryan on xbl, he is fucking insane at mk9. When he said he won the european tournament i didn't believe him but wow, he did.

@mitzanu2007 Belgian guy didn't spend money on a plane ticket or hotel. Warner Bros paid. FACT! All competitors were sent an email notifying of the competition change by Warner Bros. FACT!

Warners appreciate one person was disappointed. But don't perpetuate lies. Thanks.

@Precious9Luv

LOL, seriously, where did you get your info? Im that Belgian guy, and believe me, WB did NOT send us any email. You know when they informed me? When i was about to play my first match when i got on stage ... After complaining they said we posted it on FB ... I checked it when i got home ... Wanna know when they posted it? 30 Minuts after the European Tournament began.

how do u get on this????

[MetalheadGamers]

@mitzanu2007 warner bros payed for the travel of all the finalists, as well as a guest of their choice, players were notified before via email about johnny cage being banned, from where i'm standing you don't have a leg to stand on buddy

[Precious9Luv]

@mitzanu2007 Players WERE notified by Warner Bros - the player in question didn't check his email - that's why he was the only player who was complaining. Btw, he's Belgian and didn't travel 1000's of km...a few 100 maybe ;)

[Precious9Luv]

@mitzanu2007 you mean Belgian guy - no one from Bulgaria there. All the players actually mixed and matched their characters through practice games and tournament. JD, the irish guy, being a prime example of a pro-player who was amazing with any character he chose. BTW NETHEREALM / WARNER BROS CONTACTED PLAYERS WELL BEFORE TO SAY JOHNNY CAGE WAS INELIGIBLE - the fact that the "Belgian" guy didn't check his email like everyone else is not their fault lol...

[mitzanu2007]

@MetalheadGamers ok...lets you go to a tournament for *insert game here*,you spend money on a plane ticket hotel room all that, you are a *insert character here* player,you go to the tournament stage and when it comes your turn to play all ready and hyped, one of the tournament staff tells you that you cant choose that character cause its banned,i dont have anything against banning characters,i have something against banning characters on the spot without a prior warning,like Bulgarian guy
