Supported by SNK! Read below video for all info.
KOFXV has many game modes that bring variety and fun, one of them is the DRAFT mode. This tournament uses that format. The first player will choose one character, the second player then chooses two. Then the first player chooses their next character and then the second player picks their last character, then player one can pick their last. It makes for fun viewing as the players try to counter pick each other, as only one player can take the strongest character, yes, that’s right, there are no mirrors, each character can only be picked ONCE. There can only be one Krohnen per match!!!
Match Format is FT2. Brackets will be shuffled live on stream, then simply the player at the top of each bracket will takes first place. We will then coin toss to see if 1p will change position. Matches will be fixed FT2. RULE MAY CHANGE depending on time limits. We aim to have a 4 hour tournament.
Draft mode: game seems more balanced now and coin flipping takes ages. But ft2 locks characters in. Position lock means 1p always gets first pick. What should we do? #kofxv

4. MotionManAnother veteran of the scene, we played KOF13 till the early hours! He skipped XIV entirely, now he’s active for KOF15! Hailing from the Czech Republic, he’s been playing online tournaments on a weekly basis and won one of the Orochi tournaments recently! Otherwise, regularly placing top 8 in online tournaments, will be one to watch! |

7. RayzoThe Kukri specialist, should be good fun to see what happens if someone steals the Morrocan prince! Yes, he made that costume himself and even made Antonov’s belt! |

8. KOFmadnessThis player has been giving everyone many headaches with a solid, solid Clark, but then dropped all that mid tier nonsense and went straight in with Yashiro, Gato and Rock. He’s not playing! |

This year he has reached Top 4 and 5 at 2BCU online tournaments and top 8 in Claim the Crown! The interest in the game inspired him to launch the KOF XV Spanish league to grow the community and improve the level of the players, so a huge thanks to him! He would also like you to know his favourite character is Leona! |
