The first video talent-search contest is still the biggest and the best, pulling in entries from across the globe- 9 years deep!

Superunknown IX brought in nearly 100 entries from 15 different countries as the hungriest and most talented up-and-comers in the game try to follow in the footsteps of past winners like Tom Wallisch, Corey Vanular, Mike Clarke, Niklas Eriksson, Logan Imlach, and last year’s winner, Sig Tveit.

This year’s contest was the toughest yet as far as the judges having to select the top entries, and while they all couldn’t be finalists a few definitely stood out as worthy of a special shout out. Congrats to Joey van der Meer for being selected as one of this year’s eleven honorable mentions.
