Hey guys, later this month I’m going to be hosting Game Haven’s holiday Smash tournament, featuring Smash Wii U, Melee and Project M. I’ve been hosting the The MollyWhop in Westchester, NY for the last year, and I’m excited to try and bridge the gap between the NY and CT scenes. Game Haven is a newly opened LAN Center in Norwalk, and a pretty awesome venue. I’m doing my best to make sure that Smash has a home there.
The tournaments are spread throughout the day, but we’ll have casuals available from Noon to 8 p.m. I’ll be doing my best to make sure that all three games are streamed too, so if you can’t make it, check us out at Twitch.tv/SSB914.
