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.

Akahoshi Memorial Tournament Exclusive Merchandise!

That's right folks, as promised (and spoiled for those of you who were at bugis these last few days) Rebel2 brings to you it's very own limited edition AKAHOSHI MEMORIAL T-SHIRTS.


Modeled here by the lovely luissa, these t-shirts are stylish enough to wear to your own wedding. Or in the case of kuanyi, awesome enough to scare the shit out of your mother.

Stocks are EXTREMELY limited, and since we hate lugging shit around, we're going to be putting these up for pre-orders.

Send an email to rebel2sg [at] gmail.com with the title "Akahoshi Memorial T-shirt Pre-order" and state your name, nickname and preferred size.

The cost for each of these works of onanistic art is a paltry $20 if you pre-order NOW. You'll receive your shirt on tourney day, 02/10/10 once you pay up.

Sales on the day itself will set you back $25, so really. It makes no sense whatsoever not to pre-order now.

For more information, go to the Round1 Forums here!

More pictures from the photo shoot can be found at our Rebel2 Facebook page here!

The Akahoshi Memorial Tournament

REBEL 2 officially announces: The Akahoshi Memorial Tournament! (赤星記念闘劇)

NOTE: Due to a set of very unfortunate and unforeseen circumstances the tournament has been pushed back by one week to the 2nd of October. Signups are still open now.

Date: 02/10/10 (Saturday)
Time: 1330 – 1800

In loving memory of our dearly departed friend Daichi, Rebel2 is hosting another exciting event in his honor. The Akahoshi Memorial BlazBlue Tournament is happening THIS SATURDAY. With the success of the 2v2 random team tournament last month and chalet last weekend, we decided to give our players the chance to exhibit their new found skills in the most challenging format possible: 1v1.

Felt like you were being held back by your partners during the previous tourney? Felt like the competitive field was too watered down by the lack of veteran players? Felt like you would have placed regardless? This tournament is open to ALL!

Come on down to pit your skills against the best Singapore’s BlazBlue scene has to offer, and hang out with your new found best friends. Even if you can’t make it for the tournament, come on down halfway to give your support, and listen in to commentary by special guests Team Xialan.

* Special limited edition merchandise will be available, as well as possible pre-orders for something really really special!

Signups are open NOW at the level 7 customer service counter.

We hope to see you there!

SBO 2010 BlazBlue Continuum Shift 2v2 Champions

Upsetting the best Bangs in Japan is Tsujikawa's Taokaka, eliminating Dora and Satoshi's team during the final stages of SBO 2010. I heard he was a beast throughout the competition and I hope to find and grab videos to see for myself, maybe even posting them here for everyone.

1st - Tsujikawa (Taokaka) & Chou (Litchi)
2nd - Satoshi (Bang) & Hiroshi (Jin)
3rd - Goro (Lambda) & Fumo (Arakune) / Dora (Bang) & Hima (Arakune)

So here are the official results. If tournament results were direct proofs of the tier-list, I'm honestly both happy and sad at it. Happy because I knew Taokaka is SSS-tier, sad because I can no longer say that Bang is the highest tier character in BBCS.

It's nice to see Goro's beastly Lambda making it to 3rd place. He's the most entertaining Lambda I've seen play. I'm actually glad there's a team without a Litchi or Bang in it make it to the semi-finals.

Alas we can only wait for someone to upload the videos before we can actually see anything. Until then, keep your eyes peeled for any SBO 2010 BBCS videos and if you spot them before me or the other forum members do, please do inform us in the forums.

Blazblue Chalet Aftermath

As the weekend closes, so does the Blazblue chalet. I hope everyone had fun at our little spot at Costa Sands Resort. Space was a little limited but we managed to pull it through in the end.

Shoutouts to Kuni, Hannybal and Jae for forking out the most amount of money for the chalet, espacially Kuni since he didn't even make it for both Saturday and Sunday.

Shoutouts to Vx hyping up the place. Half of team xialan is still pretty potent.

Shoutouts to jjjynx, Alex, Beergut and Zio for brining and putting together all the equipment together.

Shoutouts to Joel and Lionel for cooking the food. Really appreciate Joel's help in the cooking and willing dismembering of chickens.

Shoutouts to Edz for being the ever ready camera man.

Shoutouts to Sunbomb who is actually not Sunbomb but is now officially Sunbomb and being so nice to throw down money for drinks.

Shoutouts to the rest who chipped in for drinks. There's a whole bunch of you I think, but I'll give the shoutout to THE GREAT SALAD for letting me know that lemon barley is a good vodka mix.

Shoutouts to Shinigami for providing the catering service. I didn't get to eat most of the food but the otahs that no one ate saved the day for me.

Shoutouts to Hong Kong and CHICKEN WING.

And of course, shoutouts to EVERYONE for being such great sports. Thanks to all the veterans for sharing their equipment and moving out of the way for the newcomers by not crowding the room.

All in all, we all had lots of fun trolling each other, feasting like kings and of course playing BBCS. Congrats to all the 'winners' of the 'King of Losers' mini-competition me and Jae held. We really thank you all for being so sporting in this little contest.

Photos and videos will be uploaded soon. Do visit the Round1.sg forums and the Rebel2's Facebook page for updates. Keep in mind that there will be a tournament coming soon so check back for more information!
