Box Arena Joins as a TOL Qualifier!

By kuroppi | April 18, 2012 | Posted in:


We are happy to announce that The Box Arena will be joining as a TOURNAMENT OF LEGENDS qualifier!

When we expanded the finals to 32 back in February, we had made unannounced plans to run a qualifier at Team Madcatz Championships in San Diego, which was scheduled to take place last weekend. After the announcement last week that TMC would be postponed until after EVO, we were approached by Box Arena to move the qualifier to their location at Frubble. Frank Fresh, the director at Box Arena is an avid ST fan and Box Arena became the perfect choice to replace TMC, as Frank wants to be a part of the ST revival, they are the premiere fighting game group in San Diego and we get to keep the qualifier in SoCal, as originally planned.

The Box Arena qualifier will take place on Saturday, June 2 at 2PM. The qualifiers will be $20 to enter and is standard ST tournament format:

Double elmination
3 out of 5 games.
Akuma is banned.

Box Arena has plans to stream the qualifiers at http://www.twitch.tv/theboxarena

Reminder about EVO’s Last Chance Qualifiers

By kuroppi | April 10, 2012 | Posted in:

It seems like there is still some confusion out there to some people so just a reminder/clarification to everyone that there are two separate Last Chance Qualifiers at EVO, with the top two from each qualifier advancing to the Tournament of Legends finals. And everyone is welcome to enter these qualifiers and everyone gets to participate at EVO. 🙂

Since a lot of the really heavy hitters will have already qualified (AfroLegends, Damdai, DGV, Valle, the Japanese players, etc.) these qualifiers will be completely up for grabs. We think there will be some incredible matches as players battle for those last prestigious qualifier spots.

Also, there may be additional qualifier spots added to the EVO Last Chance Qualifiers, if there any problems with qualifiers/invites unable to attend.
