GR8Bit Live! IV Tournament – 07/02/16
This is a charity event held at the GR8bit Live! Charity Gaming Convention & Music Festival.
Proceeds go towards video game equipment for the children at the Helen DeVos Children’s Hospital.
Read closely because some of the details are pretty non-standard for a FGC Tournament.
- The tournament will be held across 2 venues. Preliminary Rounds will be at The Geek Group. Grand Finals will be on stage at The Pyramid Scheme, where a live band will be playing the Street Fighter soundtrack to your fight.
- The Pyramid Scheme is 18+. If you are under 18, sorry!
- Street Fighter V is the only game officially (side tournaments are welcome)
- Since all the money is going to a great charity helping children, the winner will receive the actual prizes below instead of a cash payout.

Announcing the “Take Back the Skullheart” Challenge!
Edit 11/13/16: The current prize total stands at $172
In hopes to bolster entries, and add an extra layer of hype, we are announcing an additional cash prize available during the RCR Skullgirls side event! This bonus will be completely separate from the prize pot. The rules are as follows:
1. The prize will comprise of all of GR Morahan’s current tournament winnings, and any tournament winnings to follow, starting at $50
2. The prize will be awarded to any player(s) responsible for eliminating GR Morahan from the tournament
3. In the event that one player sends GR Morahan to losers, and another player knocks him out in losers bracket, the players will split the prize 50/50
4. The prize will only be awarded if GR Morahan is completely eliminated, not if he wins the tournament from losers side
5. The prize will continue to grow until someone is able to claim it, no matter how large the sum becomes, so get training!
