Schedule for NEC12 this Upcoming Weekend...

Well North East Championship 12; which is basically the most important tournament in North America for the Soulcalibur community is this weekend! Most are considering this the last hurrah for SC4 and this is also the first hands-on public appearance for SC5 and TTT2 in America.

Originally, we toiled with the idea of not doing a "team" tournament this time around... but after numerous complaints we have decided to bring it back; but slightly altered. We will be doing a team tournament, but the teams will be "random". Players name's will be placed in a hat, and players will be paired up at random.

Signup for the SC4 Random Team Tournament begins at 1:00pm on Saturday, December 3. Registration will close at 1:45pm; Because we need a number of players divisible by 3, if we don't get a rounded number of players, the last player or two will have their entries refunded... Signup for the SC4 Singles tournament will begin immediately towards the end of the Team tournament.

​

As you probably guessed it; we will be streaming from NEC all weekend! However, because of the sheer number of events on the docket, the tentative schedule has been decided in advance. The schedule below is strictly the schedule for the 8WayRun stream. It is not the tournament schedule, nor the schedule for the TeamSp00ky stream. This schedule is subject to change.

Odashima-san, Utoh-san and FilthieRich from Namco-Bandai will be in attendance all weekend for the festivities. In addition, they will be sticking to twitter and running contests for the stream watchers. Who knows what the prizes will be, but tune in if you want to find out!

There are TWO streams during NEC. The "main" stream will cover the main 2D fighters and will be broadcasted by TeamSp00ky. However, I'm sure you would rather watch our stream. Both streams are provided in high definition and are completely FREE! So we kindly ask that you disable your ad-blockers while watching so we can earn some advertisement revenue.

Bibulus also wants to do some interviews with Odashima-san; so if you have any questions, post them in the comments and I'm sure he'll consider them.

 

This build does not have Xiba, Cervantes, Aeon and Yoshimitsu.
I guess their saving it for a gaming convention.

The build doesn't have those 4 characters, however the game is so much fun to play. We in there for SCV!

 

It was Daishi's birthday yesterday (or day before), I hope you guys gave him some birthday Popeye's chicken.

 

At 12:00, Im watchin......

 

Even if it doesn't have the 4 "new" characters, is the build an evolved version of the PGW one ?

 

Filthierich just announced that the regionals stream WILL have Yoshi, Cervy, Aeon, and Xiba!

 

When is the regionals stream going to be aired?

 

Dec 17 / 18

 

Thats disappointing to say the least, that was pretty much all I was looking forward to during the sc 5 stream. Sucks Im gonna have to wait till mid december to finally get that gameplay footage.

 

Daishi Odashima Challenge? oh im so looking forward to that

 

Daishi Odashima Challenge? oh im so looking forward to that

He and Utoh-san played 4 hours of SC5 against people there already. I don't know if they'll do another one later in the evening. Bibulus + Utoh on the commentary was really good and informative.

 

i hate tekken, no offense i wanna see more scV

 

I think 2 hrs later is SC IV tourney, thats something worth watching =) But thanks for the awesome stream guys! Really appreciated!

 

Ask Daishi if Pyrrha confidence will be for DLC!!!

 

Lols...Pyrrha may not have her "confidence", but she's deadly in a fight!

 

SC IV fights are now ON! WOOHOO!

 

daishi looked totally stunned at lolo's victory jiggle-dance!

Welcome to the west!

 

Daishi looks tired =O

 

Soul Calibur IV team match was amazing, I wanna see it again!.

 

Looks like the stream is off. Oh wells, was nice anyway.
