The date for this event has been changed to November 7th. December 5th will also have another KTAR (KTAR XV) that will have a tourney page for it later.

Im wondering does this torney have an age limet?

Hey there, remember me? I entered a Ktar like 5-8 years ago back in the Brawl days. Well, I'm finally ready to tackle it once again! I was a little too inexperienced last time and didn't even know about the Double Elimination concept last time! This time I'm ready to have a good time and see how my SSB4 skills are stacking up. I had a question about the RSVPing. I just put down that I'm going, but I'm also heading there with my cousin as we're entering Doubles. My one worry is that we'll both be put into the same pool in Singles and have to fight each other right away. To avoid this, is it better for us to both register at the same time (Today or at the event) or should we try to register at different times? If it doesn't make a difference, then we'll probably both RSVP today. Thanks in advance.

How do you respond if you're not sure you're going? And also, is this going to be as major as KTAR XI from last year?

Yes, I'm most likely going. The question now is whether I can make it on time. I'm about 45mins from the location, and can't leave until about 2:00. If I walk in at, let's say 2:55, can I still register for Singles?

 

[DReager1]

That should be fine, but you will be cutting it very close. The registration officially ends at 3:00 so I'd recommend speed walking. This board does seem pretty dead as far as replies are concerned so if you have a facebook, I would recommend asking Keitaro there to be sure. The tourney has its own page. Sitll, you should be safe. I look forward to seeing you make some waves in the tourney. We need more good Greninjas!
