■ MMT
Characters played: King and Armor King
When did you start playing? :
Started playing in 2004 as a casual gamer in my local arcade before learning the game in a more serious manner and becoming competitive in 2006, where I entered my first Australian Nationals proceeding only to the second round, but opening my eyes to a whole different level of competition than my local arcade at the time. It made me strive harder to become a better competitor.
In 2007, placed 5th in the Nationals
In 2008, placed 2nd in the Nationals
In 2009, placed 2nd in the Nationals
No nationals were held in 2010.
In 2011, placed 3rd in the Nationals
In 2012, placed 4th in the Nationals. 2012 was a huge year for me in terms of gaming.
In May I competed in my first Shadowloo Showdown, and won the tournament.
In August, I qualified with a teammate to compete in Japan for Australia in the 2012 Tougeki Japan, or better known as Super Battle Opera (SBO) what I consider the largest fighting game worldwide tournament on Arcade (EVO being largest console) placing equal 4th in the tournament, the best Australia has ever come in SBO history. In November I won a competition that allowed me to compete for Australia in the 2012 Electronic Sports World Cup in France, placing equal 5th.
Share your enthusiasm : Looking forward to playing with and learning from some of the best in the world through this experience.

That indo dude "Hero" doesn't know how to gird that red belt. He obviously never had any martial arts lessons were belts are necessary. And damn Saint looks like a comedian on this pic.
My prognosis:
1. Nobi
2. Help Me
3. Saint
Knee not going? Fraud tournament. lol kidding ;D
Knee is JDCR bitch
Its probably 10-1 for JDCR against Knee in tournament.
LOL Knee was very lucky to beat JDCR once in TTT2 with lame counter pick.
B.G takes this.
2nd: Doesn't matter.
3rd: Doesn't matter.
