My list:
SomewhatMental: Probably our strongest Helena player on the west coast. He's new to DOA, and yet he's so much better than a lot of players that have played for awhile and newer players. Still has a bit to improve on but he's very solid.
Air Gear: My sparring partner in SoCal, and always gets my blood boiling when we play. He's a pure adreneline rush and will wreck face once he gets going (think Juggernaut from X-Men). Plays a solid Jannlee and loves competition.
Xcalibur Bladez: New and practically our youngest consistent tournament player in the community. He's proven himself more than a few times that he's a dangerous force to be reckon with.
Emann: I've enjoyed watching this guy play in tournaments he's attended. He plays Kokoro, Christie and Helena all solid. And he's been proving he has what it takes to take the strong down and out.
