What’s up SoCal! We present to you, Zero To Death - a Super Smash Bros Wii U tournament, and the 1st in a potential reoccuring series, here in the Los Angeles / Culver City area.
***PRE-REGISTRATION IS OPEN***
Link to pre-registration form: http://goo.gl/forms/i8jz4zrzaR
- Please be aware that space is limited due to venue size. Therefor entry cap for this first event will be set to 50, making this a first come first serve basis at the door. Note that this cap does not apply to Pre-register - pre-register simply allows you the $5 venue discount. Also, for this first event, we will not be applying for a SNACTIONED status.

VENUE DETAILS: (Pictures below)
- Decent size, fits up to 70 people. Parking available behind the shop, where players and/or spectadors will enter the shop. We will not be utizling the main entrance for this event, so please head towards the rear of the shop. When entering, you will notice that there is a small hallway leading into the shop. Here anyone can chill and relax if need be. If anyone gets hungry, no worries, there are plenty food spots nearby within walking distance. Such as Yoshinoya, Jack in the box, King's Kabob 7-Eleven.
EVENTS:
- Super Smash Bros Wii U SINGLES
- Resurrection Bracket - SINGLES (qualified entrants only - see details below)
START TIMES:
12:00 PM - SINGLES door sign-ups / check-ins BEGIN
1:30PM - SINGLES sign-ups / check-ins END
2:00PM - SINGLES BEGINS
3:00PM (or once all qualified entrants are obtained) - RESURRECTION bracket begins
6:00PM (or sooner) - Tournament ends
PRICING:
PRE-REGISTRATION venue fee ------ 5$
AT THE DOOR venue fee --------------- 10$
Singles --------------------------------------- 5$
Resurrection bracket --------------------- 1$
You may sign up AT THE DOOR, but I encourage everyone to PRE-REGISTER so that the tournament will move that much faster. Once you register, just show up at the venue and let the sign-up person know you pre-registered. We will look you up by your name or tag, and then you get the discounted pre-reg fee of 5$, instead of the AT THE DOOR fee of 10$. Then you're good to go! Be sure to arrive and CHECK-IN before the start of your event.
DISCOUNTS:
Extra setups are welcomed and encouraged. Entire venue fee will be waived if you bring a full Wii U setup with a TV / monitor. Bringing a setup means you brought everything to boot up your Wii. Bringing only a Wii U setup, OR a TV / monitor, will take off 2$ from the venue fee. YOUR WiiU MUST ALREADY BE PRE-UPDATED TO THE LATEST PATCH OR WE WILL NOT USE IT. Also, TVs / monitors will be taken on a first come first serve basis. If we run out of space, then we will not use it, so try to come early if you want the discount.
