Unifying The 52 Blocks World

Fans of 52 Blocks, I have a big announcement for you. It's something like a big deal! You've emailed me and asked for more 52 Blocks articles, more 52 Block videos, more, more, more...... and each time I deliver; but this announcement takes the cake. Remember when I told you there was a surprise for fans of 52 Blocks coming from Lyte Burly and an "unlikely collaboration with another 52 Blocks practitioner on an upcoming 52 Blocks project?" Well, here it is...

Lyte Burly and Mr. 52 have joined forces to promote and grow the art. Yep, you read correctly no need to fix your eyes, 2 out of the 3 main factions of 52 Blocks have come together. Burly has patched things up with Mr. 52 and the two have joined forces to bring unity to the 52 Blocks world. For those that may not know, Burly and Mr. 52 had an ongoing feud but have since put that behind them, and their primary objective is to promote 52 Blocks and take it even further than it has already gone. In a video Burly posted titled "Unity.... 52Blocks" the two briefly discussed the cause of the fragmentation of the art form, how they came to squash their beef, and they unloaded yet another surprise on your asses! They revealed plans to develop a competition where practitioners of 52 Blocks can enter to test their skills. Doesn't matter what 52 Blocks camp you rep, you can enter the friendly competition just bring a positive attitude.

Something else fans will find interesting is the competition (possibly named Block Fight Club) will also be opened to practitioners of other disciplines. This means if you practice Karate, Kung Fu, etc., you're welcome to compete. I don't want to reveal too much but the competition is said to pay winners and losers a monetary prize as well as other prizes. The winner of course will get paid more, but both participants will be paid. Not too shabby huh? Check out the video below for more details:

  1. Interesting. Are you going to start up an official organisation, possibly with a ranking system and title?
