The Road to Shine, the online qualifier for Shine 2016's Super Smash Bros. for Wii U event, starts tomorrow. Featuring 923-and-counting players, the battle will soon begin for a full ride to the event.
For the next 4 days, players based in the United States and Canada will be trimmed down from the initial number, leading up to a top 48 showdown on August 12. Among the registered participants are EVO champion Elliot "Ally" Carroza-Oyarce, Tyler "E2C | Tyroy" Awdisho and a slew of other national-level threats.
To get you hyped for the event, Smashboards' Justin "Lee" Lee has prepared a promo video. Check it out here:
Don't forget about the main offline event too. Shine 2016 proper, which will be happening on August 26 - 28, is extending its registration deadline to end on August 16. All participants of Road to Shine will receive a $5 discount, regardless of placing.
Who do you think is going to win Road to Shine?
