Rewind Secures Impressive 7th Place Finish at EVO 2024

EVO/Evolution Championship Series is the largest and most prestigious fighting game tournament in the world and among the event highlights we had our professional player Rewind achieve a 7th place in the Mortal Kombat 1 tournament.

Rewind is very well known for his mastery playing “Reiko” and alternating with “General Shao ” and “Li Mei ” he powered through EVO in the first 3 rounds taking 3-0 wins all around. On Saturday he played the Top 24 bracket and ended his run in 7th place, losing to the MK1 Pro Kompetition 2024 Champion.

EVO 2024 was an amazing event and Rewind is looking forward to improving his game even more and solidifying his reputation as one of the top players in the scene. We will be back with more action for the East Coast Throwdown in mid October!

“Competition in Mortal Kombat is always tough, but Rewind is a very dedicated player that always strives to be better. With a 2nd place at CEO and 7th place at EVO is only a matter of time for him to bring home a 1st place championship belt” – Manuel “Lampago” Castro, Knights Esports Manager

Huge shout out to Zippo and thank you everyone for cheering the Knights and Rewind! We’ll see you soon with more Mortal Kombat action!
