Updates for the Fighting Games, our final event, and “The Smash Bros!”

October 14, 2011 in Media, News, Tournament Info

Everyone has been excited ever since we announced that Pokemon, Ultimate Marvel vs Capcom 3, and Super Street Fighter 4: Arcade edition 2012 would be coming to Apex, and now we’re ready to give you the next batch of details! Until UMvC3 and SSF4:AE12 are released, we’re going to stick with normal ruleset.  Addendums will be made as game breaking tactics are discovered! Both games will run: All sets leading up to the finals will be best two out of three.  Winner’s Finals, Loser’s Finals and Grand Finals will be best three of five.  If the player from loser’s bracket wins a best of five set against the Winner’s Final victor, the match will be reset, and a final set of five will be played. Time limit:  99 Damage set to game default Stage set to random, unless players can agree to a stage. The winner must keep his character/team, and assists/ultra.  In Marvel, you may not change your order. Next, I know we promised to announce a game, and while some of you have seen the trailer and some haven’t, we’re pumped to announce that we’re also bringing on Mortal Kombat 9!
