1v1 Super Smash Bros

It may be a surprise to many of you, but there's a thriving Super Smash Bros community over here in the UK. The fighting game, featuring many of your favourite Nintendo characters is also played at quite a competitive level in eSports tournaments around the world. 

We've decided to introduce Smash (Wii U) into our epic.SIXTEEN fun tournament series, like Rocket League, to assess the demand for a slightly more competitive tournament in the future if it is popular at the events. We'll also be running the tournament after the group stages for our eSports tournaments have concluded to give people more things to do outside of their matches.

Winner of Goat Sim Tournament.

Goat SimSo today at epic.THIRTEEN we saw a Goat Sim tournament... see we really weren't 'kidding' around....

The competitors went up against each other in groups of 4 and to go through they had to score as many points as possible in 5 minutes. The competitor with the most points went through to quarter finals and so on to the final which changed slightly in that instead of playing on the standard map they played a game of Goat Hockey where they had to score as many goals as possible in 5 minutes.

The spectators seemed to really enjoy it and we think it was a mad but fantastic idea.

Congratulations to Matty2050 who took the title of Goat Sim Tournament winner. You have some fab goodies from ASTRO Gaming!
