“Kumite is for the fighters, not the people who read newspapers.” – Frank W. Dux, Bloodsport

Despite the upgrades, we remain rooted in what we’ve always valued: a tournament. It’s a kumite starring everyone, from traveled world warriors to local living room champions, all traveling to Ohio to witness and be a part of history and to show their competitor’s heart.

SB will never be about carnival gimmicks, pats on the back or photo opportunities for ourselves. Since 2006, we’ve simply strived to bring you the one of the world’s best arenas to square off against friends and rivals alike, alongside godlike special events and an unmatched atmosphere. And as long as you enjoy it, we’ll keep doing it. Now, prepare to FIGHT!

With Season’s Beatings through the years, we watched uncountable legendary moments transpire at our famous venue, Momo2. From our Undisputed Heavyweight Marvel vs. Capcom 2 showdowns, to the Daigo-in-Ohio invasions of 2009 and 2010, to last year’s creative and unprecedented Good vs. Evil Phoenix 5v5 at SB:Velocity, we (so many SB participants) have built a lifetime’s worth of memories at that beloved, unique venue.

Unfortunately, as of 2012, Godlike Entertainment must look to the future as Momo2 announced its closing as of August. Momo2 gave us an amazing six years; it was synonymous with our event.

But the heart of SB is YOU, the players who travel from around the world to experience the riotous, uberhype SB atmosphere, and the way we run our event will not change. We’ll miss our old home, but we look forward to bringing you the SB experience with upgraded surroundings:

*8,500 sq. feet of space
*In-venue food and adult beverage lounge, open until 2 a.m.
*Across the street from some of a major U.S. city’s mostfamous andhottest hangouts, offering award-winning sandwiches and hundreds of beers, even with on-request shuttle service to drive you back to your hotel.
*Indoor pool, sauna

How much?
For competitors: $35 +additional cost per game, pre-registration/pre-payment only

FREE SEASON’S BEATINGS T-SHIRT AND SBa DOGTAG for pre-registering as a competitor! Why? Because SB is and will always be a tournament, featuring the world’s best and hungriest talent, and we want to and reward everyone for supporting us and the FGC, from Justin Wong to Johnny Donuts.

**For spectators: **$20 enables to watch tournament matches and play casuals. The shirt will not be available for purchase; man up, play your favorite game(s), be a part of SB history!

ALL side games or Unofficial Team Tournaments are NOT GUARANTEED to finish in the kumite area. As a Tournament Organizer you will be responsible for the players MONEY and relocation (hotel rooms being an option) of these tournaments – MAIN games take priority due to time or resources. We have very little leeway in scheduling.

Many, many more details to come, regarding media, production, online content, and top guests in all games. We look forward to directly engaging YOU, the players spending hard-earned money to come to our event!

For now, post up or contact Chris or Harmon through email (askgodlike@gmail.com), PM, Facebook page, or Twitter (@gdlkEnt) with questions/feedback/advice. SRK PM is NOT the most efficient way to get ahold of us because of how quickly our inboxes fill!

Thank you for supporting Season’s Beatings year after year and keeping it one of the world’s largest – and still grassroots – Fighting-Game Community events.

Holy fucking shit, my body is not ready.

3s as a main or side tournament?

Skullgirls as a main or side tournament?

Too fucking hype. Good shit Chris and company!!!

damn, a road trip for SB? :’(

in ittttttttttt

TTT2?

Yeah I def want Skullgirls repped! The devs were very cool to us for SBvelocity, I will talk with them this week!
Ohio used to be Tekken county, we’re excited to bring that back.
We will have LOTS of space, so Patrick if you want to help get 3s run and organized we will help make that happen! Like how we did SBvelocity wristbands last year just for Top 32 placers and VIPs/Volunteers, we want to do something again for everyone who helps make SBa a success!

LETS GOOOOOO!!

Also Skullgirls pls ;_;

I am in there like swimwear.

Time to crowd monster, once again.

team 4 loko is in there

Alright cool. So in classic Seasons Beatings 3s fashion who’s trying to get in on a 3v3 event? (360)

Let me see that interest!

As long as there are no graveyards nearby I’m there.

Yeah that just added 2 hours to my trip too Tim. I do like the fact that the tournament is in the hotel so I can go to the room after Josh plays. :wink:

Oh and Chris I know Josh is going to be very happy that AE is on 360. :tup:

persona 4a?

I need to put in some work and find out Atlus’ plans for P4A. I know the game is getting some hype so we’ll see. I can say for sure that anyone who wants a P4A tournament, it will happen at SB and it will be serious. But I will def need help from the fans to make it happen! But yeah we will decide in the next few weeks if it’s something we want to add officially and take pre-reg $$ for.

If not then yeah we will help organize the side tournament for it as long as someone will take care of running the brackets – we have lots of space this year!

You know I’ll be there! XD

(If you’ll have me, that is… Even if there are no carnival games. I love carnival games.)

No MvC2? Somebody should run a side tournament, I’ll help however I can.

RIP Momo2 :sad:

Is there a Caine’s nearby?

Hey! I really hope P4U is there. The midwest needs some support for anime games.
