Mortal Kombat X rankings: Rion Nelson hangs onto his #1 spot.

Number 1 ranked Mortal Kombat X player in South Africa - Rion Nelson of Hoërskool Generaal Hertzog, Witbank.

MSSA's 14th Free State Championships saw some interesting developments in terms of the esport title of Mortal Kombat X  rankings. 
Joost Loftus (Masters of Mind Sports) continued with his upward climb with Leoné Loftus, and Phoenix Janse van Vuuren in tow.

However, Joost was unable to gain the necessary points to dethrone Rion Nelson (Hoërskool Generaal Hertzog) from pole position.

With MSSA's 2nd Fezile Dabi Regional Championships about to be held on 1 July 2017, Joost may just find enough victories to snatch the number one spot from Rion.
We'll  all just have to wait and see...
