I was looking for a local tournament that allowed the Pro Controllers and I've finally found it! I haven't yet been to a tournament and this seems like the perfect place to begin.

The upcoming event has been rescheduled to Sunday the December 20th to prevent having to cancel due to everyone in area going to see star wars. Also so we can run a trial test and see how many people show as we might start running monthlies on a Sunday.

Tournaments will resume on Thursdays after the next one. I apologize for any confusion.

Is there any chance for more events to be held on weekends? I find it difficult to attend tournaments in the middle of the week when I have obligations to schoolwork. I think people would enjoy events held on the weekends.

Right about 4 is the cutoff give or take a few mins. If u walk in as im about to start then i can add quickly, but if u miss it no big deal as you can play friendlies when some TVs open up

When you arrive ask for AJAX

On New Years there wont be a tournament for Heroes Test, but a smash till dawn event for all smash games. It will start 9pm to 3am New Years Day. Its just venue fee for entry. There will be side events and possibly crew battles and such depending on how many people show.

Regularly scheduled tournaments will resume after that. If you can make it down great, and if not have a great New Years and we will see you next year for the next Heroes Test

so theres no event today at 4?
I apologize for the confusion. Tournaments are regularly bi-weekly on Thursdays starting at 7. That 4 pm one was a reschedule to avoid people missing star wars as there were so many including people with setups. Back to normal now until we decide a third day a month which will be a monthly

Starting Feb 7th we will be adding sundays to our tournament schedule.

Every week it will alternate between sunday and Thursday.

So it will be the 7th then the 11th

Then the 21st and the 25th. So on. I will be making a post for the sundays in a few moments.

Due to the projected low temperatures for tonight and the current heating situation in the game area tonight will be cancelled. We care about player health and playing comfortable 1st. This is just this week. The next sunday tournament is still on
