As the name implies, this is the last of a long line of tournaments that have been around for nearly a decade. Melty Blood wasn't originally on the list, but thanks to myself and Syxx's persistence we've been able to get the go-ahead for a Melty tourney in Iowa. Of course, there will be other games their as well such as Tekken and Street Fighter and some mystery game the organizer hasn't announced
Did I mention prizes?
