CEO 2014 is just around the corner! To celebrate the largest Project M tournament of the summer, Smashboards is kicking in a $500 prize bonus to be given to the top 3 players in Project M. In addition to the prize bonus for Project M, 1st place in both Project M and Melee will receive a limited edition Smashboards backpack! Smashboards will also have other items to giveaway to players who attend the event! Registration has already passed over 150 players for both Project M and for Super Smash Brothers Melee and is still open until June 22nd. All of this is on top of the $1,500 that was raised in a TeeSpring crowd funding campaign for all games - though news on how the additional $1,500 will be distributed has yet to be released.
The prize bonus, provided by Smashboards, will be split for Project M as follows:
- $300
- $150
- $50
This means the Project M Prize Pool is now guaranteed to exceed $2,000 total!
The backpacks, seen below, will go to first place in Super Smash Brothers Melee and Project M. If the same person happens to win both singles tournaments then second place in Project M will receive the backpack.
Some of these items will be available at CEO 2014!
