RULES:
Rules are standard for every game.

Double elimination tournament brackets with best two out of three matches.
Grand finals are three out of five.
Winners/Losers are two out of three.
Winner keeps same character, loser may switch character.

Ultimate Marvel Vs. Capcom 3 has three out of five sets the whole way through the bracket as usual.

We follow the standard EVO rule set. This includes banned wireless controllers.
This is a BRING YOUR OWN STICKS/CONTROLLER event. All games will be played on US Playstation 3 consoles.

The console equipment will be labeled and registered to ensure its safety. However, please be careful with your sticks. Furthermore, if you know you’re attending and you do not have a stick to use, make sure you have a friend who can donate.

For pad/PS2 stick players, we tend to have PS2 pads and/or converters around, but don’t take this as confirmation of us having them there for you. Bring your own to be safe as opposed to being disqualified for not having a controller available at time to play. We cannot hold up the tournament for your convenience.

See our full event rules here.

Yesterday was Chip Damage’s first all air-dash fighter event. The Anime Grand Prix hosted tournaments for five different games: Arcana Heart 3, BlazBlue Continuum Shift Extend, Skull Girls, Persona 4 Arena and Guilty Gear XX Accent Core Plus R for a total of 13 players. Admittedly, this wasn’t the biggest turnout we’ve seen for our events but it didn’t stop our competitors and spectators from having a great time. We fully intend to hold more air-dash themed tournaments in the future so there’s plenty of room for this great event to grow. Thanks to everyone for coming out and supporting our first Anime Grand Prix!
