Red Bull Conquest Finals 2019 Results

Three games, eight teams, one conquest.

Last weekend, from November 22-24, Red Bull Conquest Finals took place at Red Bull esports studios in Santa Monica and featured popular fighting games Street Fighter V, Tekken 7 and Under Night In-Birth Exe:Late[st].

The Red Bull Conquest Format

In 2019, Conquest traveled across eight different U.S. cities, offering local FGCs to showcase their skills against other competitors. These regional qualifiers, including events in Los Angeles, Seattle, Houston, Philadelphia, Minneapolis, Orlando, Chicago, and Oakland, saw popular FGC players like Victor “Punk” Woodley, a winner in Philadelphia, and Hoa “Anakin” Luu, a winner in Orlando, compete against amateur and aspiring pros for a chance to earn a spot on the stage at the Finals in Santa Monica. This emphasis on local events fosters and supports FGC pride as each game’s winners at each qualifier are put on a team to represent that city in the Grand Finals.

These qualifiers had no restrictions for the entrants: fighting game fans of all experience levels were invited to compete in Conquest, regardless of previous competitor history. Conquest‘s emphasis on local qualifier events makes it easy for new FGC competitors without sponsorships or the means to cover travel to compete in a top-tier tournament hosted by Red Bull. New and exciting talent from both popular and underrepresented cities can get recognition in a major event. In addition, veterans of the FGC competitive scene are also welcome to enter the qualifiers to test their skills.

Team Chicago receive their winner's trophies and the rest of the players join in the calebration, following the grand final at the Red Bull Conquest Finals, held at Red Bull HQ in Santa Monica, CA, USA on 24 November, 2019.
