Fighting Game Community College: Come relax with Guilty Gear, Smash, and more video games!

Transfer Co Ballroom, Raleigh, NC

August 18th from 2-5:30 PM

Limited spots, walk-ins now allowed

Fighting Game Community College is a place where you can set goals and trade feedback in a structured, friendly meetup. This is not a tournament so feel free to experiment and have fun with no pressure to win. Here’s how it works:

SET GOALS: Sit down with your fellow player and share your goals for the match. Relaxing, having fun, or finally playing that F-tier, cheesy character are valid goals.

PRACTICE MATCHES: Play with purpose, head to the lab, or try a funny ruleset until time is called. No need to track scores. Not sure what to do? Try these ideas.

EXCHANGE FEEDBACK: After each match, exchange feedback with your partner using our tip sheets. Sometimes you’ll know things that others don’t. Explaining concepts to others deepens your own learning (plus you’ll feel smart).

COMBO: At the beginning of the event you will be given a COMBO card that you can fill out after every match. Each card has a mix of different goals on them for within and outside the game. For each COMBO you complete, you earn another spot in our blind bag raffle at the end of the event.

NEXT MATCH: Organizers will regulate your matches and you’ll repeat the process. This prevents king of the hill or the shy person never getting to play.

Games (DLC Included)

GAMECUBE: Smash Bros. Melee on CRT

NINTENDO SWITCH: Smash Bros. Ultimate
