Preregister at smash.gg/newfish by May 1!

NEW FISH is the final and finest FISH in RPI Smash Club's and Pastime Legends' upstate New York Super Smash Bros. tournament series! NEW FISH includes Melee, Wii U and Project M! Expect 48+ CRTs, pot bonuses for each game, and plenty of top players!

We are proud to announce a partnership with Claim to Fame Entertainment who are sponsoring a $1000 prize bonus and trophies to the singles victors! Come check out their booth! Next Level Gaming is also sponsoring another $250! Pastime Legends will be assisting travel costs and supplying equipment!

For players looking to carpool, PL is offering travel compensation for cars traveling at least 50 miles round trip that include four preregistered players and fill out an online form. Previously this offer was extended to teams for TMG, but now it can apply to any carpool as long as they meet those requirements.

Carpool form: http://goo.gl/forms/9WYj98y4EI



Because we have many events at this large tournament, there will be a strict 3 or 4 bracket cap per player, pending schedule details like if there is PM teams interest. In addition, if you participate in The Melee Games, you will not be allowed to enter any teams events because of the crew battle time restrictions.
