GYGO has a history of hosting some great events, for various games including Smash, Street Fighter, and tons of table top games, and it’s just a really cool venue over all.
Events and Pricing
All players must pay a $5 venue fee to participate in any part of the event. GYGO has graciously offered to waive the fee for anyone that makes a purchase of at least $5 at the store. I would suggest grabbing a drink and snack when you show up and your fee will be waived!
Main events ($10)
Super Street Fighter 4 (PS3), Blazblue CS(PS3), Marvel vs. Capcom 3 (PS3), Arcana Heart 3 (PS3)
Side events ($5)
SF2 HD Remix (PS3), Guilty Gear AC (PS2), Melty Blood AA (PS2)
Michigan Masters Top 8 Exhibitions for SSF4 and BB CS will also be held at this event (free for qualifiers)
Prizes
All main and side events will have their prize pools split between 1st, 2nd and 3rd place with a 70/20/10% distribution. The prize pools will be made up using all the entrance fees for that event. The only money that doesn’t go back to prizes is the venue fee (which goes to GYGO).
The special Exhibition event will have a prize pool, also split 70/20/10 to the top 3. This money was made up from 40% of the venue fee money at the Michigan Ranbat Season 5 tournaments.
Schedule
Due to the large number of games, and a fairly high expected turnout we WILL be starting on time. If you’re late you are not guaranteed entry, so PLEASE be there on time.

SSF4, BB, HDR and MB start - 1:00
Marvel 3, AH and GG start - 4:00
Exhibition Tournaments Start - 7:00

Specific rules for each game will be announced soon.
Exhibition Rules
The Exhibitions will feature the top 6 players from the Michigan Ranking Battles ladder, as well as two last chance qualifiers. The qualifiers will be the top two players in the regular tournament who have not already qualified through ladder points.
The tournaments will be double elimination, and will be seeded according to ranking (the last chance qualifiers will be seeded last).
The prizes will be split 70/20/10. The amount of money in the prize pool will be announced after the last Ranbat (on the 19th of this month). It should be several hundred for each game.
Setups
We need PS3s and TVs. Please contact me if you can bring either, and we can talk about getting your fee waived.
