Just two weeks after signing Street Fighter V player LPN, Cica eSports has added another fighting game representative to their growing roster. This time, they’ve ventured into the 3D subgenre by acquiring Hoa “Anakin” Luu, one of Atlanta’s top Tekken players. Known for his signature Jack play, Anakin placed 1st at Final Round XV for Tekken 6, 1st at Kumite In Tennessee 14, 1st at CEO 2014, and 5th at Evolution 2014 for Tekken Tag Tournament 2, among numerous other achievements.
With Tekken 7 Fated Retribution being part of the main lineup at this year’s Evo, as well as a forthcoming console release, there is no doubt that Anakin will be looking to make quite an impact in the future.
You can see the official announcement Tweets below:
