May 4, 2023 Tom Anderson

It’s barely more than a month until the latest and greatest incarnation of Battle Arena Melbourne – #BAM13.

BAM is Australia’s biggest FGC event of the year, so naturally it also needs to show off the biggest range of different fighting games. After all, if you’re gonna find enough people anywhere to fill a bracket for your favourite niche fighter, it’s going to be at BAM!

To round out our lineup, here is our final game announcement for #BAM13!

DreamHack Melbourne has come and gone – and with it, the last ever Street Fighter V LAN for CouchWarriors League. Coming up in just a few weeks is Battle Arena Melbourne, where the new age of Street Fighter 6 will kick off in style!

Of course, #BAM13 is bigger than any one game, even if SF6 is getting a lot of hype. You can check out the hashtag on social media (or the BAM13 tag on couchwarriors.org) to find all the details announced for the major so far. In the meantime, here are the dates and sign-up links for all our May CouchWarriors League events.

If you’re a regular visitor to this site, chances are that you’ve seen this notice posted somewhere:

It’s been a tough stretch for the north-most arm of our FGC since the initial loss of their ranbat venue in March 2022. Over a year has now passed since the last official CWQLD offline event.

But don’t worry, the end is now in sight: the Queensland Ranbat is now set to make a triumphant return before the end of the month!

CouchWarriors League 2023: Updated Points Structure & Schedule

February 28, 2023 Tom Anderson

CouchWarriors League is officially back for 2023, announcing a new format and points system for the Summer and Winter championship seasons.

The 2023 format emphasizes more local and community events while pivoting the CWL Online schedule from weekly to monthly tournaments. The points awarded at each state’s monthly ranbats have been doubled, making them an even more important battleground for our championship hopefuls.

Events and Details: October 2022

October 6, 2022 Tom Anderson

We continue the exhilarating race to the finish in this month’s CouchWarriors League schedule, with one more big event queued up to help ambitious players climb the leaderboards: Big Cheese 3.

This one matters most for our South Australian hopefuls, with a hometown Major to catch them up on all the points others have reaped from BAM 2022 and Dreamhack Melbourne. But there’s still regular ranbats and CWL Online monthlies running elsewhere, plus the Champions’ Challenge at PAX Aus – not a ranked event, but there will be sponsored prizes plus the new test build of Street Fighter 6!

Here are the dates and sign-up links for all October’s CouchWarriors League events – both online and offline.
