SOUTH BAY MASHER MEGA MIX Pre-Registration Now Open: start.gg/tournament/sou… Saturday, April 25th Let’s talk about the games first. This is the most comprehensive lineup of games we’ve put together yet, all thanks to the passionate TOs from the community. With a total of 8 retro and modern fighting games, we hope there’s something for everyone to enjoy. A few updates: Street Fighter III: 3rd Strike is now an @TheJazzyCircuit ranking event. Come get games in, compete, and earn ranking points. Additionally @30k100m will be bringing his 3S drive thru setup for a unique gameplay experience. It'll be conveniently stationed next to the Taco Stand and dining area. Vampire Savior will be one of the featured titles, organized by VSAV TO @MoonJellyKevin. We’ll also be launching exclusive merch for the game that day, available for on-site purchase. The SNK team of @Ke11yAnn_ and @CoachZOL are going all out once again, adding KOF XV and Samurai Shodown to the lineup to round out all 8 games. Street Fighter II: Hyper Fighting will also make its debut at this event, led by @sf2hf92 and crew. For those who want to test themselves in a game that is simple in concept but extremely difficult at the highest level, this is one to try. No EO mode here—and the cheaper the play, the better it is to watch. @TeamOmegaElite @silentscope88 @gerikus0 @KingKannibal

🎉 5-Year Anniversary is today! On March 16, 2021 SNK released ⛩️ SAMURAI SHODOWN with 120fps gameplay! The 120fps update introduced good netcode that revitalized the tournament scene. Players attending Vegas Climax devoted years to playing & competing in this exceptional fighting game. The 120fps update for Xbox Series kept these players and the game active and now SamSho has a place at the SWC ♥️ Join Vegas Climax VII to experience the "stellar" version SNK announced 5 years ago as "an experience you need to feel to believe" youtube.com/playlist?list=…
