Special Shoutouts to :

SGFinest for their unparalleled support. We could not have done it at AFAX, one of the hottest events of the year without them.

Team Xialan for running the tournament and providing commentary.

Farpenoodle for coming down both days diligently making the brackets and helped out in running the tournament.

Jjjynx and Albert who greatly contributed with the use of their PS3s. Without them we would just steam take cab and go home la Joel.

Yamamoto Transport for powering Team Xialan. Without them, the MCs on the ministage would not be so steam.

Lionel for putting money and time into masterminding the tourney. Plus the Rebel2 corner was easily the most comfortable spot in AFAX with his couch and secret beanbag.

And of course, AFAX itself for hosting the hype that was the Blazblue community.

Rebel2 will be posting up the match vids for the Semi Finals and up as soon as we can. Keep your eyes peeled for the next update!

The Akahoshi Memorial Tournament Aftermath

The Akahoshi Memorial Tournament concluded yesterday with an unexpected winner! Khairi (^^), our legendary Malay player who has just returned from Japan and climbed his way to first place! Whether his powers which allowed him to clench victory was derived from wearing his 'Kamen Rider' mask, sporting his newly re-bonded hair or from his Malay origin we will probably never figure it out.

Second place goes to Zio with his power of love and Third place goes to Jae who eliminated Chichiboy, whom was shocked that Jae was knocked out by Malay in the first place. For Chichiboy, all of a sudden Third placing actually seemed difficult to achieve!

Props to all the players who participated. Photos will be uploaded soon so keep a look out for them either in our Twitter or on this blog. Thanks for listening to my lousy commentary attempts and for participating! Thanks to all those who bought the awesome LIMITED EDITION Akahoshi T-shirt! Thanks also for keeping the good distance away from the machine!

And finally, thanks to Iluma for making all this possible.
