Fresno SSF4 Ranbats 2.2 - 100 Degree Wakeup DP!

Fresno's second ranbat series kicked off last month with quite the bang, bringing in over 20 people to a small boba shop for the sole purpose of pressing buttons with killing intent. A host of new faces, along with some old and busted ones, made the first ranbat of this season a great time. Complete with a run-in with my good friend Thunderbird, it was truly a day to not forget for at least a month or so. If you're a Street Fighter player living in Central California, you'd be a fool to not show up.

What's a ranbat you ask? Ranbat is shorthand for Ranking Battle, a series of tournaments in which players earn points based on their placings in each tournament. Want to prove that you're the best in Fresno? Such a desire would raise questions about your mental health but, irrespective of your impending CVA, this is the place to prove it! Bragging rights, fight money, and perhaps even a special prize await you if you can acquire the most points this season. Simple enough, right?

Date, time, and location:

Sunday, September 12

Lollicup
1075 East Bullard Avenue
Fresno, CA 93710-5532
(559) 447-8958

Entry: 10 $ (7 to the pot, 3 to the venue)

Pot will be split 70/20/10 between the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place finishers.

Signups starting at 12:00, tournament will start at 2. If you'd just like to spectate, you're more than welcome to stop by, but be advised that the place can get a bit crowded. Deodorant really isn't optional here.

Games:

- SUPER STREET FIGHTER 4 -

Best 2/3, Double Elimination

Grand Finals: Best 3/5

Loser can change character/ultra, winner cannot swap ultras.

This will be run on PS3. We had a 360 setup last time that got used for like 3 matches. This is a BYOC (bring your own controller) tournament, but if you don't have a PS3 stick or pad of your own, bring your best smile and i'm sure someone will let you borrow theirs.

- Tekken 6 -

We've had some interest shown for a Tekken side tournament, and we'd be more than happy to accommodate this. We need to make sure that there would be enough players though, so make sure to sound off if you want this to happen!
