    Final Round 2018

    until
    FINAL ROUND LLC proudly presents: FINAL ROUND 2018 Date/Location: March 16-18, 2018 Georgia International Convention Center 2000 Convention Center Concourse, Atlanta 30337 Hello everyone, this is Larry. We can't wait to host you guys/girls again! This will mark our second year at the convention center. Of course I personally would like to thank the players of the FGC, vendors, and the sponsors that have supported FINAL ROUND throughout the years because without you guys there wouldn't be any FINAL ROUND or scene! First off with the positive feedback from attendees about the venue size last year we are back at the convention center again. With a 37,500 sqft exhibit hall to make sure every game event at FR2018 is in one room and not spread out like the dragon balls in different rooms! This will make it easier for those that like to compete in multiple games to be in the same room as the rest of the games! All of our online registration will be handled through smash.gg from the start. Doing this we will allow us to be able to produce pools for every game within the week the online registration was closed. No more waiting for pools a few hours before the event starts to know when you play. let me say this right now in all caps: THERE WILL BE NO DOOR REGISTRATION FOR OFFICIAL TOURNAMENT GAMES AT FINAL ROUND MOVING FORWARD FROM THIS DAY UNTIL THE END OF TIME! I've tried to be fair to those who don't have PayPal, but the time has come to stop door registration with an event of FR's size in order to ensure that we have a good schedule and that nothing changes in the last minutes before the event. It's just not fair to the majority of those that pre-register early to cater to the few by causing possible scheduling issues. With that said, please make sure you put all of your correct information in the smash.gg registration form in order to properly seed you by state/region/team sponsor. Make sure you use the proper tag name if you're a sponsored player. The full schedule, floor plan, and streaming schedule will be released in a timely manner so those who plan to attend can do so properly. Some games will have TWO-day pools to avoid the possible scheduling conflicts. So, if you are going to compete, I would advise you plan to be here for all three days if you're attending FR20! [You can find a tentative schedule of the event here.](https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1jF61bGOB8RPVGsS6hhXZtT4jW1cXtRTBTJWeZQ7u3F0) More information, such as stream schedules and specific pool times, will be added to this as we approach the event. Online Registration for your games are up now and you will receive a discount on the badge price based on the schedule below: - $70 Player Badge Registration online BETWEEN January 1, 2018 - March 2, 2018 Badge pick-up times: - Thursday, March 15, 2018 - 4:00 PM EST to 9:00 PM EST - Friday, March 16, 2018 - 8:00 AM EST to end-of-day $30 Spectator fee. Children under the age of 10 (accompanied with parent) are free to spectate unless they are competing and elderly (ages 50 +) are also free to spectate. We will also have a lost badge fee of $10 for those that misplace your badge during the event, but you must show "PROOF OF PURCHASE" to receive the lost badge fee. If you "CAN NOT SHOW PROOF" of purchase you will have to PAY THE FULL BADGE AMOUNT TO ENTER THE EVENT AGAIN! If you are competing in ANY singles/teams/exhibition/side tournament at "FR2018 YOU MUST GET A COMPETITOR'S BADGE TO COMPETE DURING FR2018!" IMPORTANT MESSAGE INCOMING: "We will have a clear bag policy at Final Round throughout the three day event schedule. We found outside food bags and several beer cans/bottles last year by pool stations that could get us fined by the facility. We also had 3 PS4s stolen at FR last year! With those issues popping up we have to start and enforce this rule moving forward." We care about our attendants and since we aren't in a hotel venue anymore we went out and got a group rate hotel rooms at several hotels. Our second hotel is the Crowne Plaza over by Spondivits. This hotel has smoking or non smoking rooms and is closer to the price range you are use to when attending FR. To reserve a room under the FINAL ROUND 2018 group rate you would need to click on the following links or call the hotel directly at: GROUP LINKS WILL BE POSTED AT A LATER DATE. Atlanta Airport Marriott Gateway: 4047631544 Crowne plaza Atlanta Airport: 4047686660 100 rooms reserved at the Crowne Plaza. Please reserve them asap because the sooner we sell these rooms the more likely they will release more rooms to our group. They will release more rooms but only if we sell our group out early! Remember they sell rooms to other people outside of our group rate. This year since we now know that the convention center has to close at 10:30pm each day with no exceptions we are going to have a 24 hour arcade/byoc ballroom at the Marriott gateway! We want to give you a place to play all night if you choose to without being cramp 20 deep in one bedroom! This will be free to everyone attending FR 2018! We have no ability to have a 24 hour venue in our main exhibit hall, but hopefully this is the next best thing! Here's the list of games that are on the official tournament line up, with the scheduled days for the singles brackets noted in parenthesis. All games are on PS4 and cost $10 apiece to enter unless noted otherwise. All games will be run in double elimination brackets, and most of them will be split into pools. - Street Fighter V: Arcade Edition (Fri and Sat) - DragonBall FighterZ (Sat) - Marvel vs. Capcom Infinite (Fri) - Tekken 7 FR (Fri) - Dead or Alive 5 Last Round (Fri) - Injustice 2 (Sat) - Guilty Gear Xrd REV 2 (Sat) - BlazBlue Central Fiction (Fri) - Pokken Tournament DX (Switch) (Sat) - Street Fighter Alpha 2 AKA "Old man problems!" (Arcade) (Fri) - Street Fighter III 3rd Strike (Arcade) (Sat) - Super Street Figher 2 Turbo (Arcade) (Sat) - Brawlhalla (PC) (sat) All team/community events will be must held on Friday March 16, 2018 or Sunday March 18, 2018 as this is the only day's we have available to run them in a timely manner. All team/exhibitions/community events must get approved by ME to be ran at FR2018 period! Any "community event" will be ran by the communities that requested their game to be played at FR2018. We would just need some help with the systems/games and you will have an area to play and run the tournament. All community events registration will be at the door only, but you can register for your badge online. If you've been to FR you know we always have an arcade for everyone to enjoy as it helps remind our younger generation where this scene came from! With that being said we want to bring back the old school arcade tournament at FR2018. Just like the old school arcade scene you will have to register for your game at the event, but you can take advantage of the early bird online pay for your badges. We will have multiple streams for FR2018 for those who cannot attend the event to get a small taste of the event, but we will not have dedicated game streams unless the producers of the game sponsor those streams. Getting a new venue comes with a new venue cost and I can't afford to have 6 streams dedicated to a genre of gaming without sponsorship help. This isn't a slight to any group of players but I can't afford it anymore. We will try to put as many games on stream in an even fashion, but no promises will be made. If you want to see everything at FR2018 you should attend so that you can take it all in TBH. We are glad to have the following streamers for FR2018: - CPT - http://www.twitch.tv/capcomfighters - FunkyP - http://www.twitch.tv/funkyp - KombatNetwork - http://www.twitch.tv/kombatnetwork - Bifuteki - http://www.twitch.tv/bifuteki - DATA FGC - http://www.twitch.tv/datafgc The cosplay event will be back with a twist. We will have 3 categories to compete in this year! We will have best in gaming, best in anime, and best technical. Cosplay contest will be on Saturday March 17, 2018 at 5PM EST. We cannot wait to see everyone back this year and hopefully some new faces also! We are looking to improve on each years event to make sure you guys have a great time at Final Round every time you attend! Thank you for the continued support!

    Final Round "20th Anniversary"

    until
    FINAL ROUND LLC proudly presents: FINAL ROUND "The 20th Anniversary" WEBSITE: https://smash.gg/tournament/final-round-20 Date/Location: March 10-12, 2017 Georgia International Convention Center 2000 Convention Center Concourse, Atlanta, GA 30337 Hello everyone, this is Larry and this will be the 20th anniversary of FINAL ROUND! This year will be a celebration of the FGC. Not only reflecting on the past events, but ushering a new future for not just FR, but the FGC as a whole! This will truly be a family reunion type event and you can't spell Family Reunion without the FR!. Of course I personally would like to thank everyone in the FGC, vendors, and the sponsors that have supported FINAL ROUND throughout the years because without you guys there wouldn't be any FINAL ROUND or scene! Life is so short and things shouldn't be taken for granted. Instead of burning bridges we at FINAL ROUND will strive to build bridges to help grow FR and the FGC as a whole! With that being said we look forward to hosting you this year in your favorite games to compete to be the best. There are going to be changes to how we operate during FR to improve your time at the event. First off we heard your concerns about the venue size last year, so we have stepped our venue game up to a 37,500 sqft exhibit hall to make sure every game event at FR20 is in one room and not spread out like the dragon balls in different rooms! This will make it easier for those that like to compete in multiple games to be in the same room as the rest of the games! All of our online registration will be handled through smash.gg from the start. Doing this we will allow us to be able to produce pools for every game within the week the online registration was closed. No more waiting for pools a few hours before the event starts to know when you play. There's one question I know most want to know. "Will there be at the door registration at FR20?" I know I got a lot of feedback about this topic on the good and bad side of things. We will have at the door emergency registration, but with what has happened in past events door registration will only be allowed on Thursday March 9, 2017 between 4pm->9pm eastern standard time! I was going to get rid of Emergency door reg all together, but I will afford those that don't have paypal to still have a chance to compete at FR20. Of course this means coming the day before the event, but that is the trade off. Once the pools are done thursday night they are done for good and everything will start as planned. With FR20 being the only CPT event to completely fill a 1028 man tournament outside of Evolution we will have to go to the two day system for SFV with pool play starting on Friday March 10th, 2017 and ending on Saturday March 11th, 2017 to ensure we have enough time to complete pools without having people in a ballroom for 18 hours straight! With T7 FR scheduled to be released before or around FR20 we are planning for huge numbers in that game also so we will have T7FR as a 2 day pool event also, so if you plan on entering either of those games you need to be here on thursday March 9th, 2017 regardless. The full schedule, floor plan, and streaming schedule will be released in a timely manner so those that plan to attend can do so properly. We are reaching numbers that we have to plan for an we have to make both of these game 2 day events to avoid the possible cluster we had at FR19. Just plan to be there for all three days if you're attending FR20! Online Registration for your games are up now and we are running an early bird registration special right now, so get it while you can! ($45 for badge online while it's $60 at the door) We recommend you to register online as soon as possible to take advantage of the "Early Bird" special! (open until Nov 27, 2016) You will receive a discount on the badge price based on the schedule below: https://smash.gg/tournament/final-round-20 ◦ $45 Player Badge if you register BEFORE January 1, 2017 * $50 Player Badge if you register BEFORE February 24, 2017 ◦ $60 Player Badge Emergency Registration at the door officially on: Thursday, March 9, 2017 - 4:00 PM EST to 9:00 PM EST "Emergency Site Registration" and Pre registration Friday, March 10, 2017 - 8:00 AM EST starts Pre registered badge pick up's only NOTE: EMERGENCY REGISTRATION IS NOT GUARANTEED - WE WILL ONLY ALLOW EMERGENCY REGISTRATION AS LONG AS THERE ARE AVAILABLE SPOTS LEFT IN THE BRACKETS - THE ONLY WAY TO GUARANTEE ENTRY TO THE EVENT IS TO REGISTER ONLINE! $30 Spectator fee. Children under the age of 10 (accompanied with parent) unless they are competing are free to spectate and elderly (ages 50 +) are also free to spectate. We will also have a lost badge fee of $10 for those that misplace your badge during the event, but you must show "PROOF OF PURCHASE" to receive the lost badge fee. If you "CAN NOT SHOW PROOF" of purchase you will have to pay the full emergency door fee of $60 to regain entry to the event. If you are competing in ANY singles/teams/exhibition/side tournament at "FR20 YOU MUST GET A COMPETITOR'S BADGE TO COMPETE DURING FR20!" We care about our attendants and since we aren't in a hotel venue anymore we went out and got a group rate hotel rooms at several hotels. We have the hotel that is right next to the event venue is the Marriott. This location cost more than our usual group rate, but it's right next to the venue so no catching a shuttle to the event. Our second hotel is the Crowne Plaza over by Spondivits. This hotel has smoking or non smoking rooms and is closer to the price range you are use to when attending FR. To reserve a room under the FINAL ROUND 20 group rate you would need to click on the following link (links to be added later) or call the hotel directly at: Atlanta Airport Marriott Gateway 2020 Convention Center Concourse, Atlanta, GA 30337 (404) 763-1544 Online Room reservations at bit.ly/FR20hotel Double Beds = $125 PER night Crowne Plaza Atlanta Airport 1325 Virginia Ave, Atlanta, GA 30344 (404) 768-6660 2 DOUBLE BEDS=$99 PER NIGHT smoking or non smoking 1 BED= $99 PER NIGHT I have 300 rooms reserved at the Marriott and 100 rooms reserved at the Crowne Plaza. Please reserve them asap because the sooner we sell these rooms the more likely they will release more rooms to our group. They will release more rooms but only if we sell our group out early! Remember they sell rooms to other people outside of our group rate. Here's the list of games that are on the official tournament line up: Games: (Singles) double elimination. Street Fighter V (PS4) - $10 (Fri and Sat) 1024 man cap Super Smash Bros. for Wii U (WiiU) - $10 (Sat) Ultimate Marvel vs. Capcom 3 (360) - $10 (Sat) King Of Fighters 14 (PS4) (Fri) - $10 Tekken 7 FR (PS4) - $10 ( Fri-Sat) Dead or Alive 5 Last Round (PS4) - $10 (Fri) Mortal Kombat XL (PS4) - $10 (Sat) Guilty Gear Xrd Revelator (PS3) (Sat) - $10 BlazBlue Central Fiction (ps4) - $10 (Fri) Super Smash Brothers Melee - (Wii or Gamecube) $10 (Sat) Pokken Tournament - (WiiU) - $10 (Sat) All team/Community ran events will be must held on Friday March 10 as this is the only day we have available to run them in a timely manner. All team/exhibitions/community events must get approved by ME to be ran at FR20 period! Any "Community event" will be ran by the communities that requested their game to be played at FR20. Remember that if the game is labeled Community event that doesn't mean it won't happen. If I allow it at FR then it's a tournament regardless of the label. Hence the name EVENT in the title. We would just need some help with the systems/games and you will have an area to play and run the tournament. All community events registration will be at the door only. We will have casual stations for people to play casuals during the event and we will be introducing the smash.gg ladder system for casual ranked battles that you could win prizes from! It worked well at Red Bull Battle Grounds NAF and I wanted to implement it at FR20! If you've been to FR you know we always have an arcade for everyone to enjoy as it helps remind our younger generation where this scene came from! With that being said we want to bring back the old school arcade tournament at FR20. Just like the old school arcade scene you will have to register for your game at the event, but you can take advantage of the early bird online pay for your badges. With the great response we got from having the 3S tournament at TFC I want to do something for the CvS2 crowd at FR20. We will have CvS2 tournament on friday with a $500 prize bonus supplied by me. Capcom VS SNK 2 - $10 (Japanese cab, Dreamcast or PS2.) (Fri) TBD at a later date! Please contact me if you have a cvs2 board as we would need at least 3-4 to make sure things runs smoothly. We will have multiple streams for FR20 for those that can not attend the event to get a small taste of the event, but we will not have dedicated game streams unless the producers of the game sponsor those streams. With getting a new venue comes new venue cost and I can't afford to have 6 streams dedicated to a genre of gaming without sponsorship help. This isn't a slight to any group of players but I can't afford it anymore. We will try to put as many games on stream in an evenly fashion, but no promises will be made. If you want to see everything at FR20 you should attend to take it all in TBH. We are glad to have the following streamers for FR20: Team Spooky - http://www.twitch.tv/teamsp00ky FunkyP - http://www.twitch.tv/funkyp Kombatnetwork - http://www.twitch.tv/kombatnetwork Bifuteki - https://www.twitch.tv/bifuteki The cosplay event better than last year as we will have a professional Cosplay judge for this years event. CosPlay contest will be on Saturday March 11, 2017. We hope with these improvements this year everyone will enjoy their time at FR20. This is the 20th Anniversary and family reunion. See you guys soon and thank you for the continued support!

    So I received a message from CafeID that they are sending Kensouzzang, Poongko, and Knee to compete at #FR16! The GLOBAL SATURATION CONTINUES as FR16 just continues to get hyper every day that passes by! With 7 days and 18 hours left until the tournament starts who knows what will happen next. I advise anyone that can attend FR16 to attend because this is shaping up to be the most intense FR to date!

    [Mar 29-31, 2013] FINAL ROUND XVI - Atlanta, GA

    Correct sir! Hello everyone, I have some very important news to tell you guys before FINAL ROUND 16 is upon you. Thanks to everyone that registered online. As of 11:30 pm EST, all registrations have now been processed in the FR registration system. PLEASE go to the "Player Schedule" link and confirm your information - if your name does not appear, or if there is a mistake, please email BobSmack at webmaster@finalround.org AS SOON AS POSSIBLE as pool creation will be starting this week. With that being said I have to do something that i've never done before and I will have to issue caps on games to properly plan a schedule for this event. We are going to start the process of making pools this week, so by 3 days before the event we will have preliminary pools posted. Those that haven't registered online will have to register at the door on Thursday March 28 between 5pm-9pm or Friday March 29 between 8am-12noon. After that there will not be anymore registrations taken at the door, so I advise everyone that didn't register online to try their best to get to the venue on thursday to make sure you have a chance to enter the hypest tournament in the MILKWAY! The cap means that we think these games are either close to reaching these caps or they will equal those bracket levels once we close emergency door registration: Ultimate MVC3: 512 Super SF4: AE v2012: 512 Tekken Tag 2: 512 Street Fighter x Tekken: 256 King of Fighters 13: 128 Persona 4 Arena: 128 Mortal Kombat 9: 128 Soul Calibur 5: 128 Dead or Alive 5: 128 Melty Blood AA: 64 Also any player that DID NOT REGISTER ONLINE WILL NOT BE SEEDED IN ANY MANNER! These are the rules!

    Online registration for FR16 is now closed as of 9:00 AM EST on 3/16/2013. If you registered between 3/13/2013 and this morning, your name should show up in the system under "Player Schedule" by 11:59 pm on Sunday 3/17/2013. There was an overwhelming number of registrations - thanks to all of you that chose to register online! It will save us all time and trouble at the event this year! Emergency onsite registration will be held at the venue on Thursday, 3/28/2013 from 5:00 pm to 9:00 pm and on Friday, 3/29/2013 from 8:00 am to 12:00 noon. These are the ONLY times that onsite registration will be available, and we will only take registrations for a game while there is enough availability in the brackets, so the best bet to ensure your entry into an event is to get registered at the door as early as possible!!!
