Who's ready to catch these ARMS?! 2GGaming's 2GGC: ARMS Saga is this weekend, here is a mini guide that we have compiled for your viewing pleasure.
What is ARMS Saga?
2GGC: ARMS Saga is an upcoming national Super Smash Bros. for Wii U tournament, set to be held on July 8th, 2017 in Santa Ana, California. Organized by 2GGaming, it will serve as the sixth qualifier of their 2GG Championship Series. The event was confirmed on June 8th, 2017, when 2GGaming's Twitter account posted a tweet stating that they would hold the tournament as their 'July Saga,' provided the tweet got one thousand retweets within a day; the tweet reached the goal in less than an hour, and ARMS Saga was announced as promised.
True to its name, the tournament will be dedicated to the game ARMS for the Nintendo Switch, and will feature a side ARMS tournament in addition to the regular Smash 4 brackets; this marks the first 2GG Saga ever to be dedicated to anything outside the Super Smash Bros. series. It will also be dedicated to Little Mac to bring together the theme of both ARMS (a competitive long-range boxing game) and Smash, and is expected to feature top Little Mac players from around the world.
