Why are we doing this?
In order to make BlazBlue and offline gameplay more accessible to players.
Allow others to learn more about the game in a stimulating environment.
Offline competition is always better than online.

Getting there:
The closest Station to the place is Piccadilly Circus which is on the Piccadilly and Bakerloo lines. Once you exit the barriers you take the exit to the left which has the 'Trocadero' sign. Do not go outside into the high street.

Pass through the automatic doors and continue to walk forward through all the break dancers (lol) and once you're near the escalators go up, and then turn left, it will be right there in front of you.

Feel free to ask for more details about the event in this thread.

Update:
Hi all! Wednesday 30th May is the 2on2 Astral Heat bonus event, be sure to come down, find a partner and get those GGs! Feel free to use this thread to find a partner.

Rules:
Players from each team will be assigned to the characters of their choice, and should be different from their partners. You'll play with that character through the tournament.

Sets will be run as such:
Team members A from both teams play versus one another (one match best-of-3-Rebels)
Then members B from both teams play.
If the victors of the matches were on the same team, they proceed to their next set/opponents.
If the victors were on opposite teams, they play a final match to get the final verdict.

Depending on how many teams enter, it may be a Round Robin tournament or Double Elimination.

Venue fee is £5 per person as usual.

Quick reminder:
Next two events are on the 13th (Casual) and 27th (Tournament) of June
