With the summer sun setting, Fall brings new challenges, new opportunities and new rivalries to push esports to the next extreme!
July Recap
We had thrilling competitions in each of our Smash Bros and Rocket League tournaments. While the west dominated the Smash Bros bracket, with Simon Fraser University’s Jameson “Cube” Crawford reigning supreme, and UNBC making their collegiate esports debut through Franz “Pantry” Aebischer, and UBC’s Aiden “Shrapnel” Chau coming in third.
