[T0MMY]

Dragonpunch Wednesday Smash Weeklies​

Where

Shoryuken League Barcade
In the heart of downtown Eugene right in Keasey Square across from Bijou Cinema and that popular doughnut place you will find "The League", gamer hangout and competitive arena.​

When

Every Wednesday evening!
Doors open @ 5:00pm
Signups @ 7:00pm
Brackets @ 8:00pm​

Streaming

Twitch Stream goes LIVE @ 7:00pm every week!​

Setups and Equipment
We have two or three Smash Wii U setups going on, two for tournament play and one for friendlies.
One setup is streamed on our Twitch channel. We usually have a Melee and Smash 64 setup on the floor as well. Bring a controller of choice, and if you don't have one the League will provide you with Gamecube, Pro, or Nunchuck controllers.

Like Street Fighter and other traditional fighters? Street Fighter as well as a variety of fighters are also being played competitive the same night with brackets for tournament play - usually two Ultra Street Fighter IV setups are on the floor.

Fees & Buy-ins

Venue Fee: $5 - this goes directly to the establishment and also covers the free play arcade area as well as any console game and game from the "game menu" you want to use.

Bracket competition usually does not have a buy-in and reward is ranking or a nominal prize for first place, unless it's high stakes (see below).

The first Wednesday of the month is "High Stakes Wednesday" with a $1 buy-in, winner take all!​

Food & Drinks
The Shoryuken League is a full bar with a selection of food. French fries, onion rings, and similar items are all available for reasonable prices on their video-game themed menu ("Pocket Monster" drinks are a popular item).
No outside food or drink, please.

Further Info

Since this is a bar we are sorry to say it is open only to those 21 and over (the owners do have someone check an ID card to validate the age required by the OLLC).​

Got questions? Don't hesitate to post here on this thread or PM me and let me know - I host the events, work the brackets, run the stream and most of the time compete every week!

Hey is this a Smash 4 only tourney, or is it for Melee, 64, and Smash 4?

Hey is this a Smash 4 only tourney, or is it for Melee, 64, and Smash 4?

Pretty much only interest is in Smash 4 and Street Fighter IV.
There are people who play all the Smash games, but the focus right now seems to be SSB4.

This wednesday we are looking at doing a $1 buy-in for the tournament. If we have an 8-man bracket we'll do a swiss format into top 4 elimination, if it gets to be too many people we'll just straight up do a double-elim bracket.

Is there a prize?

Is there a prize?

Usually no prize; Competing in weeklies are valuable for seeing improvement and what matchups need to be practiced. Although some prizes have been sponsored in the past it doesn't happen regularly. If you want to do a buy-in for a prize feel free to stop by and make the offer - usually when someone puts up money others will step it up as well and helps build some hype.
