About Us
You might be wondering "What is Lvl Up Expo?" We are a Las Vegas/Henderson convention that covers the vast fields of gaming. Yes, the word "gaming" is a broad term so let me break it down for you...

Dungeons and Dragons? Yes!

Pokemon and Yu Gi Oh? You bet.

Street Fighter and Super Smash Brothers Brawl? You read my mind.

Anything else? Everything your pixelated hearts can think of!

Our primary focus is to not only explore the gaming technology of today´s generation, but to be reminded of the influences and impacts of "old-school" gaming that have pushed us as children to make it to the next level.

We hope you join us for a memorable expo, jam packed with tournaments, non-stop events, giveaways, and so much more!

[TheCrimsonBlur]

Will it be poppin?

 

[Zankoku]

Yes, definitely.

 

[HavikLink]

What are the chances of getting some Project M in this? Even as a side event would be cool.

 

[C.SDK]

I'm down to go

 

[mikeHAZE]

hype!!!!!!!!!

 

[Zankoku]

What are the chances of getting some Project M in this? Even as a side event would be cool.

I just talked it over with the organizers, odds are good that we'll be able to fit in Project M. Whether as a main event or a side one I'm not sure yet, we'll be going over scheduling soon.

 

[rjgbadger]

if the turnout is good/enough good cali players go, i'll definitely head down for this.

gonna be a long few days tho, crysis 3 comes out at midnight the 18th

 

[ComboFest]

i might go if the hype is here.

 

[HavikLink]

Hype!!!

You have to go now.

 

[ComboFest]

Might come for the Brawl.

 

[Aaven]

If we can manage to get an AZ carpool for this I'd be down to go. There might be a possible carpool, it's being discussed at the moment.

 

[mikeHAZE]

Any chance on an updated schedule, or a time frame for it? I want to book tickets asap

 

[Zankoku]

We don't have exact schedules for each game yet, but the event will definitely take place for the whole weekend, on February 16 and 17.

 

[WickedX90]

Can anyone go and spectate or do you have to play?

 

[OkamiBW]

Tempted to go and drive. Roughly how many Melee players will we have? And could I and some other SoCal players find housing?

 

[stabbedbyanipple]

$30 for singles + venue fee is killer but I might go if someone is carpooling

edit: or if every player in nevada agrees to money match me lol

 

[Zankoku]

Can anyone go and spectate or do you have to play?

This is an expo, with plenty of things going on such as casuals, an artists' corner, and various other little events. You do not have to participate in a tournament if you don't want to.

Tempted to go and drive. Roughly how many Melee players will we have? And could I and some other SoCal players find housing?

Not sure how many will show yet, but we're hoping to make this a big one. We reserved the four grand ballrooms at this place:

I'm sure we can find some housing for you, feel free to ask in our Facebook group or PM me here and I can ask on your behalf.

 

[WickedX90]

Dose anyone know of a place in Las Vegas were I can check out the local compitaion?

 

[Zankoku]

We regularly come to play at Gemini Arcade Palace, the address here:
4180 South Sandhill Road
Suites B3 & B4
Las Vegas, Nevada 89121

Typically people show up between 4 and 7, feel free to stop by.

 

[OkamiBW]

I bet if I asked nicely, jpegimage or trahh would house me.

 

[BrandX]

Are the games already set in stone, or are we allowed to bring a set up for another game if people play?

 

[mikeHAZE]

Buing my tickets soon! very hyped

 

[rjgbadger]

[HavikLink]

Which game? A few people are meeting at Gemini to play some Project M on Saturday if you wanna come join. We're not quite as good as Trahh or Jpeg or Swordsaint but we can hold our own. We'll probably meet around 4-5 pm. We'll also have Melee if you want to play that.

SoCal people get all your friends here! Lets make this tourney Hype as ****!

 

[Aaven]

AZ Carpool confirmed for this, looking forward to this.

So far it looks like Austan, K9 and myself will be 100% going, may bring one other person not sure.

Hype, haven't been to Vegas in ages.

 

[Zankoku]

Tentative schedule and list of games are up.

 

[Ken Neth]

It looks like Utah might have two carpools coming down. The only thing that would stop me is crazy weather/driving conditions.

 

[Ken Neth]

Is there going to be housing provided? Pretty sure we're gonna have two carpools from UT

 

[Zankoku]

I can provide some housing, but not all of it. :V

 

[OkamiBW]

I haven't been all too interested in going because there hasn't seemed to be that big of a drive for Melee here. Will decide when I talk to people in SoCal about it.

 

[SFA Smiley]

I'm 98% confirmed with AZ

 

[Death Arcana]

is double mk banned?

 

[Zankoku]

Double MK is not banned, I believe.

 

[Aaven]

Getting hyped for this. Anybody down to team for this?

I'd prefer to team with someone who isn't AZ and see how that goes, I'll be using Ness/Marth. Hit me up if you're interested.

Double MK not banned? Nice.

 

[Zankoku]

Quick update, since the venue is closing at 8PM on Saturday I've moved events up by one hour, to start at around noon. Please arrive on time!

 

[Death Arcana]

double mk
are you serious...

 

[Tane]

How soon will results be up?
