Last weekend we partnered up with the good people from Capsule Entertainment to bring forth the fifth installment of the fighting game tournament series, BEST of the Battle. Food, drinks, music, stickers, tee shirts, art, and of course, fighting games is what the BOTB tournament series is all about. Although there was a 9 game lineup for the event, 3 out of the 9 games actually had a tournament go down (there has to be at least 8 people for a tournament to take place). Unfortunately, I was not on top of my photo shooting skills this time around so I only captured a few snapshots of the whole event.
