After the great success that was Natsu Cup, Australia’s Third Strike community has announced the second of four online round robin tournament, the Aki Cup. 2 groups of 5 players will compete online over Fightcade in a round robin format and the leading player of each group at the end of the Cup will receive a donation of $250 to be made out to a licensed charity of their choosing. This series of online tournaments is a step in the right direction for competitive Third Strike and a labour of love by the 3S community that goes towards a wonderful cause. The tournament commences on April 13th and sign up has opened.
For all things 3S in Australia, or if you’d like to be a part of the Aki Cup and future online tournaments, make sure to join the AUS/NZ Street Fighter III: 3rd Strike fighters group on Facebook or you can get in touch with the tournament organiser Madenka.
Check out the Aki Cup trailer for sign up details after the jump.
