To sum up Paradise Hills Showdown 3.1 in one word, it would be unexpected. When I found out that the tournament was going to be held at someones house a.k.a “dojo”, already my mind was prepared for a small tournament with less than 20 people. When entering the “dojo” 2 hours late, there was a lot more than 20 people. There was so many people that a full bracket of 64 players were signed up and playing. Inside the family room, there where 4 TVs and 4 PS3s setup. In the backyard, there were 3 more TVs and PS3s. The place was filled with that competitive “smell” and excitement.
People from all over southern California came down to the event for the fun and excitement. But what were all these fighters playing for? $400 in cash. Go past the break to watch the Grand 1v1 Finals between Somuchdamage (Los Angeles) and ShadyK (San Diego) and photos from the event.
