Introduction
Yeah, KORV2 was pretty successful, except for the part where the top 4 didn't get any money...again. Anyways, it was enough to leave RV hungry for more. And after many months, and many lame tourneys that failed within a month of starting, we're back here to crown yet another King of RapVerse. The stakes are higher this time, as we've been joined by several RB heads, such as ambience. (runner-up in RB's recent 128-man tourney The Gauntlet). Should make for quite a few interesting match-ups, considering JTR, the runner-up in KORV2, has returned, looking to make it that one step further than last time. Also signed up is Mimesis - a newcomer to the KORV scene, but still a favorite to win it all.
