Calendar

2018 promises to be a good year for VF due to the inclusion of FS in Yakuza 6, and the NYC / East Coast scene in particular with the return of Hayato’s arcade looking stronger than ever. Thanks to the efforts of the old-school arcade community at iFixMachine, VF will have a strong arcade representation at this year’s NYG. This includes a genuine arcade cabinet with Sega’s Lindbergh running VF5R and FS, along with head-to-head Versus City cabinets running VF4 Evo and Final Tuned, and potentially VF3 if the interest is high! The resources available to us at this year’s event are better than ever. This means we can offer a more exciting and fun environment for casual hanging out and playing, and we can also step up this year’s tournament to provide a competitive environment.

Keep checking this post as time goes on, we will be updating with more details over the coming days.

Event Schedules:
Friday, August 24 – Hanging out, casuals, side tournaments (games to be announced).
Saturday, August 25 – Final Showdown Tournament, Double Elimination
Sunday, August 26 – Hanging out, Runbacks and Revenge Exhibitions

The Venue:
iFixMachine is reborn as a true arcade, with cabinets for head-to-head, single-player, and vertical scrolling shoot-em-ups. There is also plenty of love for console games. $10 per day gets you all the gaming action you want.

The Tournament:
The tournament will take place on Saturday, August 25. The game will be Virtua Fighter 5: Final Showdown, and detailed rules can be found below. We will be offering prizes, and there will also be a pot bonus for the event. Additional information about prizes and scheduling will be coming soon.

Spoiler: Tournament Rules
Brackets and Calling Matches:

If you are registered for the tournament, you will be placed on a challonge bracket which will be posted before the tournament begins. Our first priority in seeding will be that people from the same region don’t play each other in round 1, but that may not be possible in all cases.

If you are called and are unavailable for your match, we will attempt to resolve other matches in the same round before disqualifying you. If 2 matches occur before you are available, you will be disqualified. If you want to leave the venue for food or other reasons, please consult an organizer to see if there will be enough time. It is your responsibility to be there for your match.

Rules for Matches, Character Select, P1/P2, Stage Select:

Normal Bracket: 2 / 3. Losers, winners, and grand finals are all 3 / 5.

The Tournament is Double Elimination

If two players cannot agree on player 1 / player 2 side, they will flip a coin for it.

After sitting down and going to character select, both players must configure buttons before picking a character. The first stage selection will be random.

After each game in singles, winner should ask loser if they want to change stage or character (NOT both).

Pausing during a match is a 1 round loss. If either player is Shun Di, the loss will be drink neutral (i.e. Shun will neither gain, nor lose, drink points). The player that did not pause can choose not to take the round.

If there is a malfunction of equipment, a break in the game can occur where the player finds a replacement. If the break occurs, or causes the game to pause, a round can be taken by the other player. These rules also apply to button checks.

Reporting Rules Being Broken:

If the match you are playing is not being streamed, rule violations should be reported to organizers by the players in a match. If a winner changes character / stage, do not begin the game and stop part way to report, report the violation before starting the game (you may pause to do this). If someone in your match pauses, winner can choose to take the round without direct response from an organizer.

Welcome to the Super Smash Bros. Ultimate release party at the NYXL pop-up shop in Brooklyn! It’s an honor to work alongside an Overwatch League team to bring events like this to the Tristate Smash community. Let’s let them know exactly how awesome our scene is!

Come drop in any time after 2 pm on the day the game drops to get matches in on one of the 15+ consoles (or bring your own!) to start learning the new game alongside some of NYC’s best players–or just to have fun!

We’ll be giving away cool merch all day, especially to those who unlock characters on the systems ?

If you’re in or around the Brooklyn area, you’re definitely not gonna want to miss this one!

Please don’t hesitate to contact me (Max Krchmar) with any questions or concerns.

Thank you, and hope to see you there!
