Body Count Fighting’s online tournament series offers a chance to win a trip to LA

One of the main goals for most players looking to make the step into competitive fighting games is to be able to travel to tournaments around the country. Sadly, not everybody can afford to travel. As such, any sort of competition that gives players a chance to travel is a greet boon to the community.

One such competition is the new online tournament series by Body Count Fighting. Starting on December 11, Body Count Fighting will hold a series of online tournaments for Injustice 2, Tekken 7, Marvel vs. Capcom: Infinite, and Street Fighter V. The winners of these tournaments will win a chance to fly to Los Angeles to participate in an offline Body Count Fighting tournament sometime in 2018.

The dates and times for the online tournaments are as follows.

  • Monday, 12/11 @ 4:00PM PST – Injustice 2 Online Tournament
  • Tuesday, 12/12 @ 4:00PM PST – Tekken 7 Online Tournament
  • Monday, 12/18 @ 4:00PM PST – Marvel vs. Capcom: Infinite Online Tournament
  • Tuesday, 12/19 @ 4:00PM PST – Street Fighter V Online Tournament

Body Count Fighting is holding these events in cooperation with Brachyon. Interested players can sign up over at their Brachyon page.

For those interested in catching the action on stream, the tournaments will be streamed at Body Count Fighting’s official Twitch channel at http://twitch.tv/bcfighting as well as at Machinima’s new 24/7 AlwaysOn stream at http://twitch.tv/machinima.

Wizard101 – Teen Derby 101

The winter KI Live snowball race has become an annual tradition. A tradition that usually ends with me completely trampling Wizard101’s community manager live, in front of hundreds of people. Not only is it cool to showcase my racing skills, but it’s also awesome to see derby get some much needed attention. What better time to go into developing teen derby pets than race day?!

Mr. Wizard wants to know what games you want to see at Evo 2018

Seven games — what will they be?

Mr. Wizard has declared seven games will be on the main stage at Evolution Championship Series 2018 — and he wants to know what you think should be there:

Unsurprisingly, big names like Street Fighter V, Marvel vs. Capcom: Infinite, Tekken 7, and the hotly-anticipated Dragon Ball FighterZ are considered a lock for Evo 2018 by many respondents. Many also consider Guilty Gear Xrd REV 2, BlazBlue: Central Fiction, and the upcoming BlazBlue Cross Tag Battle (presuming it launches in time) interchangeable in a single anime slot — while some feel DBFZ also fits that bill. The question of one or both Super Smash Bros. titles naturally arises again: will Evo 2018 continue to showcase both Super Smash Bros. for Wii U and Super Smash Bros. Melee? And what of other new, upcoming, or niche titles out there: ARMS, Pokkén Tournament DX, Gundam Versus, Dissidia Final Fantasy NT, Fighting EX Layer…?

Let Mr. Wizard know what you want to see at Evo 2018, on Twitter.
