High Stakes TEKKEN Weekend SUMMER 2014 ATLANTA

ATL Gamer Society originally announced this tournament with a $2,500 guaranteed pot payout at EVO weekend on account of the news of Tekken not being included into this year's EVO tournament. Since then, EVO has later added TTT2 back into EVO leaving the dates of these two tournaments clashing for players interested in traveling to either of these tournaments. The ATL Gamer Society website now offers new details on the tournament saying that the tournament has been pushed back to the weekend after (July 18-19, 2014) to ease concerns of date clashing. Among that, $2,500 pot payout is still guaranteed and players like Lil Majin, Anakin, Kor, Inkognito and more are confirmed to be participating in the tournament. You can find more details on the tournament up on the tournament's website.

DOUBLE CUP MASTERCUP W1 CLIMAX2014 Announced

DOUBLE CUP is the next newly announced tournament that MASTERCUP is going to be organising this year in the Hokuriku region of Japan. The tournament has a hefty name so everybody will just abbreviate this tournament to "W杯" - W CUP (get it? W sounds like 'daburu.') Anyways, the tournament will be a 3on3 team format tournament with an initial cap of 42 teams totaling 126 players. Its going to be held inside Hokuriki's Bypass Leisureland Arcade on the 20th of July this year and given it's location, Double Cup may not be streamed. Like all other Mastercup tournaments though, the official YouTube channel will surely be uploading match videos from Double Cup so you can at least look forward to that. If there's anything else of note to come from the tournament I'll keep you posted.

SHC2 - Official Direct-Feed Uploads from MASTERCUP

MASTERCUP have recently uploaded matches from the SPECIAL HAMMERs CUP 2 tournament this year onto the official MASTERCUP YouTube channel. Great way to catch up on SHC2 if you happen to have missed it and can't stand low quality stream rips. The upload speed of these matches are also pretty good this time around since it usually takes a month or two for Mastercup to upload video archives from a tournament. You can watch the videos below which I've added player names with.

EVO 2014 SCV and SC2 Side Tournaments

EVO 2014 is fast approaching and to make things more exciting, members of the Soul Calibur community have stepped up to help run side tournaments for both Soul Calibur 5 and Soul Calibur 2 HD Online! The events will be run by the folks at Twin Galaxies and to add further incentive for attendees, several members of the Soul Calibur community have graciously offered contributions to the Pot for both tournaments. With the contributions by Revin122, Jer, TalimJP, Malice & Zane, I believe the Pot Bonus figures for both tournaments are currently at $1000 for SCV and $700 for SC2HDO. This is a great showing from the Soul Calibur community so it would be waste to let them down by not attending, so get to EVO If you can because the event will certainly not be one to miss.
