    I’ve been hearing the dislike for the name but I personally like it for a fighting game. Sorta reminiscent of Japanese fighting games that can have crazy names for sequals.

    It also has a couple of good shortenings for players. They could call it xko or 2ko. Much like how people just call league of legends, league or lol. Granted I don’t actually play fighting games but that’s just my opinion.

      Usually, if you’re looking at a list of games on a schedule for a fighting game major, they’re shortened down to 4 characters or fewer, so that was probably also under consideration when naming it.
