Liking the name “New Challengers” for this tournament series at Gaming Etc.
But I agree there should be 3s. I bet it would literally get more entries than MK. And I’d finally make top 3 in something as long as Walter doesn’t rig the brackets and have me fight the best players first round, three tournaments in a row >:(
Also let’s talk about the stream this time. I’m thinking we should do some MvC3/AE/3s (if it happens) pools all day (I can supervise switching between them if needed), then run the semis for all games on the stream. Last tourney we didn’t get any AE at all on there because we ran the entire MK tourney on stream, and it actually suffered greatly in views because of it (they doubled once MvC3 was put on). People get way hype over Marvel for some reason and new stuff, and 3s is “the new hotness” right now since it was just released. If we do it this way, I can help with the games running on the stream, do commentary for pools, and then record all the semis/finals for YouTube.
And by the way - since we’ve had two great turnouts, I’ll now be promoting this next event HEAVILY on my YouTube channels. So hopefully the stream will get HYPE!
Phil we have addressed the issue regarding scheduling conflicting with the stream and it wil be rectified for the 18th. As far as 3s goes we will see but no guarantees as we just made some new investments into the stream/systems/setups.
