Hi guys, our February ranbat will also serve as an official launch tournament for Street Fighter V. We anticipate high demand and have chosen to hold this event at CQ Functions, the same location in the heart of the CBD which we use to host BAM.
Since we expect that around 200 players will attend this ranbat just for Smash Bros. alone, to avoid long queues on the day, get yourself into the bracket early, and to generally make life easier for your friendly neighbourhood tournament organiser you can register online with prepayments.
Pre-reg is open until Thursday February 18th. For all other details concerning this month’s ranbat, visit the official event page.
Here are the results of Smash @ Swanston #17
1st Place: Boozer
2nd Place: Ignis
