The event will kick off Friday and have the best from Hawaii attempt to defend their house against the invaders from the mainland. While he currently resides in California, 2GG | VoiD originates from Hawaii and will be the powerhouse for the team. His fellow players are not to be underestimated either. K0rean is currently power ranked 2nd in Hawaii and has an impressive Fox. There is also Dren, a Yoshi player that many did not recognize when he traveled to Las Vegas and placed second in an event over many of the region's top players. Rounding off the team is ZekkenB, whose Little Mac should not be overlooked. Those unprepared will quickly find themselves KO-punched into oblivion.
The mainland has a team just as impressive, however. Larry Lurr, the man of many characters, will be coming all the way from SoCal. Ninjalink, who placed 13th at Apex 2015 and who often competes in New York, will have a Greninja and Bayonetta to bring into the mix. When people think of Sonic, many think of 6WX, who will also be competing for the mainland. Zigsta, known for his Bowser play since the days of Brawl, will round out the team and add some unique character variety to the battle.
Come Saturday, the doubles event will take place, but not before three crews come together to battle for supremacy. Gimp Style Madness, Hold it Down, and KnockOut Alliance will all battle, being streamed by TheOdoFaction and beginning at 3:30 pm PST. With Sunday comes singles, and these will be set to begin at 2 pm PST. Will a native Hawaiian be able to take down the talent heading out to the event? The only way to find out will be to tune in! Excited to see this event? Let us know in the comments below, and stay tuned to Smashboards for future event previews.
God, I must book it there after high school. An actual smash event near where I live TODAY. I will never forgive myself if I miss this.
