He competed and finished fourth in the memorable TOURNAMENT OF LEGENDS I at Evolution 2012, falling to AfroLegends.

Max31 and a Sixth Japanese Invite!
By kuroppi |
Some of you may have heard that the French players attending TOURNAMENT OF LEGENDS III booked their flights on Primera Airlines, which went bankrupt. They are not offering any refunds and sadly, Max31 is now unable to attend ToL3. As a result we opened up Max’s qualifier spot to a SIXTH JAPANESE INVITE AND THIS INVITE IS DEFINITELY A LEGEND!
Stay tuned for the announcement coming on Tuesday!

ToL III Qualifier Spot Changes
By kuroppi |
As we draw closer to TOL and players book travel, some qualifiers have let us know that unfortunately, they will be unable to attend the main event in October. In accordance with the rules of TOL, the spots have been offered to the second place finishers at the relevant event:
– Toryuken winner, JED07 will be replaced by runner-up Chi-Rithy.
– Final Round winner, Comeback will be replaced by runner-up Atari.
However, in a couple other cases, the second place finishers have not been able to make the trip either. The TOL committee has decided to address those situations as follows:
– Biollo’s spot, from winning La Qualificacion, was put up for grabs at the final French event, The Mixup, meaning that both the first and second place finishers at that event will qualify for TOL. As this event took place this past weekend, the qualifiers were Kouni and DonYann.
– The spot from Don’s Arcade, originally won by Digital Infamy, will be converted into an additional Last Chance Qualifier opportunity at Canada Cup, meaning that there are now six LCQ spots at that event.
