This is the first event in the KZOO Smash Fall Circuit! You may be thinking, "What the heck is the KZOO Smash Fall Circuit?". It's a group of 6 smash tournaments, 5 circuit events and one championship event, hosted in Kalamazoo during the Fall for Project M of course! So now you're thinking, "Why should I come out to these events?". Simple! Because our events are FUN, COMPETITIVE, and pay CASH! The winner of our championship event is gar-un-teed a big cash prize, plus the championship event will be at a hype venue. How do you win the championship event? You first need to come to some of our Circuit events and place good. Only the best players from the Circuit events can make it to the championship event! Now don't get discouraged if you're thinking there's no way to make it to the championship event. Because there are other ways to get there! Stay tuned because as we get closer to our championship in November more details will be revealed! For now, all you need to know is the more Circuit events you come to, the better chance you'll have to get into the championship event! So come on down to our first Circuit event and have a great time smashing and being with friends!

For more info on the Circuit and events, please visit the KZOO Smash Facebook Page.

I didn't realize I never said what version of SSB we're playing. The circuit is only Project M. Due to the dates we chose, mostly Friday evenings, we figured we wouldn't have enough time to run PM and Melee if we got a large crowd (We usually get 40+ at normal events).
