As TYM & the MK community knows, Ohio is home to some of the fiercest Mortal Kombat competition in the country. Two-time EVO champion Perfect Legend calls Ohio home, and Tim Static is a pillar of the MK community.
SB has been a prime spot for MK as well, going back to SB 2009-2010 arcade UMK3 tournaments (with 2010 being on the main stream!), and now with MK9 we look forward to giving you the hypest tournament we can. Please hit up Tim Static with questions as he is our main point man for MK!
