Since the dawn of Smash 4, The TGC series has been the largest Smash 4 tournament series in Houston, Texas and the whole Southwest. Average tournament attendance is 200+ with top players from around the country repeatedly coming to see what TGC has to offer. Due to astronomical growth of the TGC series, I have had to make a few changes/improvements to TGC 7 that will improve player experience and overall quality of the event. I hope you enjoy the changes and I cant wait to see what happens at TGC 7!

VENUE
Testmasters 2600 Gessner Rd, Houston, TX 77080. (713) 529-9752. Video Tour of venue: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sHih3WJgK0c

NOTE: The Smash 4 area is room #114 (The Maple Room) located to the right of "Tech Corps Texas" banner on the building.



EVENTS
WiiU Singles (1vs1). Will be capped at 192 entrants. Please register ASAP to ensure yourself a spot in pools/bracket. WiiU Doubles (2vs2). Will be capped at 64 teams. Please register ASAP to ensure yourself a spot in bracket.

NOTE: All registration MUST be done online BEFORE April 6th. There will be ZERO offline/in-person registration. No exceptions. All registration can be done here: https://smash.gg/tournament/tgc-7-1/register



FEES
Venue Fee= $10. Will be refunded with full setup (wiiu+tv+smash4+adapter).

Smash 4 Singles (1vs1)= $10.

Smash 4 Doubles (2vs2)= $20 per team ($10 per person). When signing up for Doubles, you must confirm your partner via the smash.gg site before the deadline.

NOTE: All registration MUST be done online BEFORE April 6th. There will be ZERO offline/in-person registration. No exceptions. If you still have not registered, you can register here:https://smash.gg/tournament/tgc-7-1/register



POT BONUS & TGC POINTS
TGC 7 will offer a $500 pot bonus for singles. The payout scheme of the pot bonus is described in the "prizes" section.

TGC 7 (April 9th), Texas Showdown (April 22nd), TGC 8 (June 4th) and TGC 9 (September 3rd) will offer what I like to call "TGC Points." These points will be given out to the players who reach top 8 at TGC 7, Texas Showdown, TGC 8 and TGC 9. The top 4 players who have the most TGC Points after attending the aforementioned tournaments will receive free entry into all 4 events at the TGC sponsored Smash 4 National Event in December 2016.

Point break down is as follows: 1st=16 points, 2nd=12 points, 3rd=10 points, 4th=9 points, 5th=8 points, 7th=7 points.



WANT SOME MONEY? BRING SETUPS
For the first 32 FULL setups (WiiU+Smash 4+adapter+tv) brought to TGC 7, I will refund you 10.00$. If you bring a HALF setup (WiiU+Smash 4+adapter OR just a TV) I will refund you $5.00. The key to a fast event with tons of friendlies/casuals is a large number of setups. Please do your part and bring setups. My staff and I appreciate you helping us out.
