« Dreamhack Summer '12: SFxT 2v2, SSF4, $10,500 prize money »
Dreamhack have announced the line up for the Dreamhack Energiser Fighting Championship at Dreamhack Summer 2012. Street Fighter X Tekken and Super Street Fighter IV: Arcade Edition tournaments will be at dreamhack summer. Hot on the heels of EVO's announcement, SFxT will be a 2v2 tournament.
$10,500 will be on the line, with SSF4 having a $7,500 pot, and SFxT having a $3,000 pot. The event will also be sponsored by Mad Catz and Tritton, with Mad Catz's SFxT VS sticks on display at the event. Both tournaments will be streamed on ARMSHOUSE @ TwitchTV by yours truly. I will also be presenting the grand finals on the main stage (so no button mashing heroes this year!). WW.Ryan Hart has won more Summer Championships than any other player so far; will recent Winter winner Infiltration return with Laugh to challenge for the title?
