As the hype continues to rise for the Orlando, FL tournament this coming Saturday and Sunday, CEOtaku is set to have an appetizer for anime fans on Friday. Guilty Gear Xrd -REVELATOR- and the upcoming BlazBlue: Central Fiction (available thanks to the Japanese early access demo) will feature streamed 3v3 team exhibitions before the mainstage events.
For Guilty Gear, there are special character rules: teams of three people using the same fighter face-off in a single elimination bracket. The teams are as following:
DIZZY: Milk_Kaichu, Breadsticks, NC-Jin
FAUST: Zinac, Malik, BigBowsa
I-NO: Ceehill, Spectryn, Essay
JAM: Doren2k, Sway, FruitPawnch
JOHNNY: KidViper, HellaBrett, Stone
KY: Ukyo Tachibana, WTHamad, Kizzercrate. Alternate: Shinobi
LEO: EvilFox, Himecut, LTL
MAY: Kedako, Bloodwolf, Aisu Kyubu
POTEMKIN: dotNova, Shine, Eva
RAMLETHAL: The Arm, Pain, Mr. Maadhum. Alternate: ShadowCLAWZero
RAVEN: Mystic, Blazeu, Lich
SIN: FaultyDefense, Dekline, Wne
SLAYER: Juggernaut, DaveO, Grant
SOL: Nakkiel, VRRaiden, Kimosabae
VENOM: Ryan Hunter, GroverDP, Naimat
ZATO: MarlinPie, BeautifulDude, Noggy
Due to time constraints, not every character could have been represented. Look forward to this event on Friday, September 30th, at 8 PM Eastern, streamed on FunkyP’s Twitch.
While the Guilty Gear teams are set, there’s still possibility to join the BlazBlue: Central Fiction team event (sign-ups available at location, capped at 32 teams). Conversely, this event doesn’t allow same characters per team and is character locked. Jyosua will stream this at 9 PM on Friday.

These team exhibitions work as great warmups for the main tournaments on Saturday and Sunday, as the stakes have been raised by additional pot bonuses for games like Guilty Gear Xrd -REVELATOR-. Central Fiction has just reached over 150 entrants, which means it will also earn a pot bonus from the organizers.
