UAA Esports Lounge and USF Esports host "Super Smash Bros. Ultimate" tournament
by UAA Student Life & Leadership |
On June 20, 2020, the Super Smash Bros. Ultimate tournament "Go For The Gold (and
Green) 2.0" was hosted by the UAA Esports Lounge and USF Esports, in partnership with MTA Gaming, for players in their respective
states of Alaska and Florida. With over 40 participants, the tournament had some amazing
competition with skilled players from the top of the Power Ranking (the system in
which competitive Smash players are ranked regionally) in their home cities. After
an intense Alaska v. Florida finale, Fortunato on Yoshi won the tournament, representing
the Sunshine State.
Next month, the UAA Esports Lounge and USF Esports, in tandem with sponsor GCI, will introduce a new collaboration tournament featuring the popular MOBA League of Legends. This tournament, dubbed "North & South: League of Legends" will take place over four weeks of high-stakes games with a final invitational bracket for the top eight teams.
