Perhaps KOF isn’t that popular in Walnut, CA. If KOF doesn’t bring in at least 50 players, it’s getting dropped. So. BRING SOME PLAYERS. I’m going to presume last Thursday was a case of people not knowing or something. Last chance!

The full info:

Here in the states there is a new weekly KOF tournament starting in Southern California. The Guys who run Wednesday Night Fights are now doing a weekly for KOF. The top 8 players who attend these weekly ranbats will get Evo 2012 seeding points. Full details are below. If any of you venture to SoCal in the coming months I recommend you come out.
