 I've ever seen and the fun's about to begin. Hey everyone, this is Doran and I'm here with Medina and you're watching the Mortal Kombat 9 Top 8 at EVO 2012. It is gonna be amazing. There's a lot of upsets, a lot of unexpected players here in Top 8 and a lot of unexpected players that are not in Top 8 so it's gonna be a really good one. It's the EVO Finals and in the Winners' Bracket, it's perfect legend, forever king, X-Blaze and Pig of the Hutt. In the Losers' Bracket, it's CD Junior, MIT, Tyrant and M2 Day. Now the pressure is on CD Junior to play his way out of the Losers' Bracket and into the Grand Finals. No one deserves to win this morning, especially now. Especially now. It's gonna be tough when I have to win this morning. CD Junior is up first against M2 Day. M2 Day, he needs a reality check because he's talked a lot of smack and he's wrong. He's 100% wrong. He's gonna get him, he's gonna get destroyed. Junior came to win and quickly defeats M2 Day, X-Blaze and MIT. I don't fear anyone. The people that will give me problems are out of the tournament right now. Up next, Junior faces his friend, Pig of the Hutt. I have a really good chance and I'm really confident. I'm not cocky because I respect every single opponent I have the possibility of facing today. I'm gonna say Pig of the Hutt's gonna be your EVO 2012 and World Combat 9 champion. CD Junior takes the first match, but Pig of the Hutt rallies in the second. This is gonna be really bad for CD Junior right now. And I'll piggy the Hutt in his own. And then just a push. Wow. Takes the next match against CD Junior. Pig of the Hutt is still in this. The score is even and a seat at the grand finals all comes down to this. Oh, he got the opening he needed. Pig of the Hutt has no meter. It's a tough battle, but CD Junior triumphs, sitting Pig to third place. Wow. CD Junior makes it to grand finals. Now, only one player stands between him and the win, the defending champion, Perfect Legend. My name is Carl White and I'm Perfect Legend. I'm a professional gamer. I've been playing Mortal Kombat since I was about four. As far as like competitively, I've been playing since I was 17 and right now I'm 24, so it's about seven years. After winning EVO last year, Perfect Legend disappeared from the Mortal Kombat community. Last year after the World Championship, I took a like a mushroom to get a break because I would try to play and I just felt burnt out. So I was like the best way to really get the fire back. You have to not play. But now the old legend is back and ready to show the world he's still a champion. I'm looking to give everyone to be down to have to play. I'm not taking it easy on anyone. It's been a long time in the making, but CD Junior is finally ready to face off against Perfect Legend in the grand finals. I know I'm better than Perfect Legend. The game gets off to an exciting start when CD Junior chooses Reign as his character. Reign, and this is gonna be it. EVO 2012 World Championship using Reign. Reign is a crowd-pleaser, but can't stand up to the mighty Kung Lao. Perfect Legend is absolutely focused right now. He wants to prove that he is the champ still. I picked Reign because he's my favorite MK character and I promise the best that if I make it to grand finals, I'm gonna pick him at least once. So just that satisfaction of hearing him growl, going crazy when I picked Reign, that was not the best feeling for me. CD Junior switches back to Kabal, but Perfect Legend is on a roll and wins the next matchup. You have to anticipate and read what your opponents are doing. That's how you dominate matches. Perfect Legend is on the verge of winning EVO once more. CD Junior's pride and determination won't let him go down without a fight. In the next match, Junior comes back from behind and puts an end to Perfect Legend's winning streak. CD Junior coming back and taking the first round is game number three. We gotta outsmart your opponents. You gotta know what your opponent is gonna do or how he's gonna react to your moves. It's like a real fight. CD Junior is proving that he is still in this right now. With Perfect Legend up two to one, the next match could decide everything. Both contestants give it their all, but in the end, Perfect Legend delivers a crushing defeat to CD Junior's dream of victory. Who did it? Perfect Legend makes it. He is your EVO 2012 grand champion. In the grand final, I wasn't sure who to root for because I know how much it meant to CD Junior and his brother as well. I really, from the start, I knew that P.L. was gonna win it. I thought that CD Junior had a really good chance. Both of them are really good players, but I'm glad that Perfect Legend got it too. I got second in like the most, the biggest tournament ever. So you can't feel bad for getting second, you know? This is my third EVO championship, so I just, that hasn't hit me yet where I'm just like, oh my God, you know, jumping around and stuff. I'm really just thinking about what I'm gonna do when I get home. This one was the one that mattered the most, but I got second, so, you know. I feel really good. I had fun. Evolution is probably the best tournament I've ever been to. I'm coming back. I need to be the guy to just meet me, you know? So I have to come back.
