Last tournament was the third tournament of the season with a few interesting moments and surprising outcomes; however, despite this in the end familiar players hovered near the top. Raheem fought his way into another 1st place, Urameshi overcame Killer for a 2nd place finish while Killer faltered into 3rd place, and Realms improved from last week to earn 4th place. Anyway welcome to Fight To The Finish #19 where the question becomes, will the top of the leader-board pull away or can somebody put a stop on them?
You start training for the regional tournament; however, you have no idea how you could train for the tournament. You have friends that you could practice with, but you need a more diverse set of opponents so against better judgement you get onto For Glory. There are no surprises starting off, a Little Mac SDs, somebody keeps taunting instead of fighting, a smash-attack spammer, and other mindless opponents. Although, eventually you find a worthy opponent, one that is around your skill level. You take some games from them, they beat you in other matches. After a couple matches they left, but you noticed letters in front of their name resembling a clan and you realize the next step in your training is entering the clan community.
TOURNAMENT TRIVIA: Which patch version of Diddy Kong annoyed HungryBox so much that he left his match and confronted StaticManny in the crowd?
