This coming weekend (September 13th to the 15th, 2013), the first Dead or Alive 5 Ultimate major will be taking place in Raleigh, North Carolina. The event has over $9000 in prize money being given to the winners of the three Dead or Alive 5 Ultimate events: (1) Friday evening is a 3v3 Team Tournament featuring many of your favorite players duking it out in a team-elimination style format, (2) Saturday starts the Singles Tournament, and (3) Saturday evening during the Dead or Alive 5 Ultimate Launch Party (exclusive entry only to those who are in the Singles Tournament), we are doing an Old School vs New School special event where 6 players designated as Old School take on another 6 designated as New School in Team Battle format.
Last night, The Fall Classic staff announced the Dead or Alive 5 Ultimate pools. These pools are generated by the list of pre-registered players, and those players are seeded into their pools. Any players who did not pre-register, and are registering at the door, not only have to pay the additional $20 fee they could have saved, but also will not be seeded into the brackets. This means the pool balance as it currently stands could be swayed depending on if there's any power players who show up and didn't pre-register.
It should be noted that the number of pre-registered players (73) exceeds the final counts for any of the Dead or Alive 5 tournaments of the past year.
For those in the area that are on the fence about showing up, you really do not want to miss out on the festivities, competition, and fun that all these players will be participating in for this weekend. Show your support for your community, friends, and game by making it out to The Fall Classic.
