A question, the console version will release on 2/22/2012, no? So how do you guys expect the people to learn and get good in only 3 days?

Julimano: Everyone at the event in February will have only had 3 days to play it too, right? As it’s the US tournament. Then if you win you have a month.

@julimano and @Rogue Ninja: In the US, everyone will be on the same playing field unless their local arcade has the arcade version. There will be a chance for players to play the console version at Northeast Championships and SoCal Regionals. We’re also planning a prelim event around Los Angeles next year. Stay tuned for more details!
