 Welcome back, everyone, to the Mortal Kombat 11 Pro competition. This is really a great mix of a lot of talented players, more of the players that we saw here who are on the come up. This is just the beginning of a long road to get into the regional finals. And my expectations that there are strong players all over the place has been confirmed. The players who show up to offline events are just a subset of the players who are strong. There's Sonic Fox, Ninja Killa, Dragon, Combat, Gur, Hayate. Honestly, like, you could really just go on. But then you also have a ton of, like, really good players that you don't really see. Han Rashid's really good. He's always been really good. He's even beaten me offline before. He's obviously not a new player, but he's been stepping out of big time. He's not chipped territory at the weight! Yes! The Spovement had a Han Rashid. We have a lot of talent. I haven't gotten the exposure to get their name out there, I feel. Names like Titanium Tigers. And the Mighty Unjust. Both of them have been primarily online players, and Unjust has been killing it in probably the toughest region NAEs, probably the most jam-packed with strong players. There's just so many ridiculous players. Kerbo, obviously. Consistently been a top-level player. Definitely like the big boys like Wise Gemini. They only do get better. It's scary to, like, have them in the bracket. Don't sleep on the West. I get a little tilted when everybody just keeps sleeping on the West like we're free. I just feel like we're underrated as a region. East is stronger just because their player base is bigger, but I bet you half of the people who make top 8 in that East, they wouldn't even win the West either. NAEs is hands down the best, and I don't think anyone can even argue that. I don't even think it is an argument. I mean, it's stacked. It's absolutely stacked. Not all of the top players are entering every single event. But even without them, I still feel like there's just so many ridiculously good players. They know how to adapt, and they get better pretty much like the next time you play it. Yeah, Customs has changed a lot about the game. I feel like a lot of characters got buffed. It made every character a little bit stronger. It kind of brings like that random factor like, do I know everything about this character? Do I know all the moves? It's a good addition. I feel overall because it does give people more options. People kind of make their own variations and kind of do their own thing. I think they have changed the game to the extent of how much. I think the meta changes are still underexplored. They're more focused on maintaining certain characters rather than being a little bit more experimental. I just think it's a matter of time until it happens. It's never been easier to see other good players in places all over the world. There's a lot more people pushing out content, and it really saves me from boredom because I really like to see high level gameplay. I really love competing, and that's kind of just like what I'm all about. So the fact that these guys kind of give opportunities to the community to compete, you know, I try to join as much as I can. I can't slack anymore. Usually there are these barriers of geography and resources to being able to compete well. And now that's not relevant anymore because we're all online playing the same game. Shout out to all the people who play the game, watch the game, give it love, give it support. All these people who are still trying to make efforts to showcase MK11. And all of the many, many weekly community events. It's always a lot of fun to be streaming these live. We have to get better together, and they help me get better, and I help them get better. Shout out to everyone, honestly.
