Although the MLG Qualifier season has ended, the action continues in the Midwest this weekend with Super SWEET, a two-day, 150+ person Melee and Project M regional in Ann Arbor, MI. Tournament organizer Robin "Juggleguy" Harn, director of "The Big House" series, is coordinating the event in classic grassroots fashion along with the Michigan Smash community. The tournament format will feature multiple waves of round robin pools that lead into an exciting final Sunday bracket, encouraging a thrilling lineup of stream matches while finishing in a timely manner. Two simultaneous livestreams will broadcast the action this weekend: VGBootCamp (all weekend) and MeleeItOnMe (Sunday only). MIOM's dynamic duo, Bobby "Scar" Scarnewman and Kristopher "Toph" Aldenderfer, will be active on the commentary throughout the event, as well as Team OXY's very own Arian "TheCrimsonBlur" Fathieh and infamous Midwest funnyman Nick "PGH Carroll the GOAT" Carroll.

Hailing from Arizona, Axe also comes into town hoping to show that 20XX is just a myth. Local heroes Duck, Kels, and Drephen are also looking to prove that the Midwest can compete with the other regions.
