$3,000 Prize Pool for Chill TCG Cup #2, Coming on December 26th, 2020 Holiday Season Competition Event
TAMPA, FL, Dec. 01, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- via NewMediaWire -- Sports Venues of Florida, Inc., (OTCMKTS: BTHR) (“Sports Venues of Florida”, “BTHR”, or the “Company”), an emerging leader in the youth sports, family sports entertainment, and eSports markets, is excited to announce its wholly owned subsidiary Shadow Gaming, Inc. announcing its past weekend Pokémon TCG event results.
The first ever Chill TCG Cup began with 383 players, and out of the gate was one of the largest online Pokémon TCG tournaments in recent history. From first-time players to seasoned veterans, this tournament reached a wide audience and brought an incredible collection of some of the most talented Pokémon TCG players in the community.
Each player began their best-of-three matches on Saturday morning, the first of fourteen rounds which slowly revealed our top-level players who would make it on to phase #2 on Sunday. There were several previous Pokémon Champions to make it into our second phase. One example was Pedro Torres - the 2017 International Champion made an impressive run into day 2 but fell just short of the top 8 brackets. Several Senior’s division competitors proved skilled enough to make it far into the event as well, and after 14 rounds of competitive play, our top 8 players were solidified and ready to compete for our $500 cash prize pool.
With AzulGG and LittleDarkFury commentating our top cut matches, the livestream kicked off with Magnechu (Pikarom) facing off against xTriAx (Lightning Mewtwo). Magnechu took game one, with xTriAx coming back and winning game two, but in the end a few rough hands helped Magnechu take game three, being the first to enter into our top 4 bracket. Next up was Vitor Lugon (ADPZ) versus Gabriel Smart (Pikarom). Vitor took an early lead going up 1-0, but Gabriel came back winning the next 2 games in a row, making him the 2nd player to move up in the bracket. After that, Adam Kalamet (Lightning Mewtwo) met FybReynolds (Blacephalon), with Reynolds taking the win in a close 2-1 match. The last quarterfinals match was with Ryota Saito (ADPZ) facing off against Vina (ADPZ), which ended with another 2 game comeback to send Ryota into the last top 4 seat.
Top 4 saw great competition, with Gabriel Smart and Magnechu kicking off the second round with a close Pikarom vs Pikarom matchup, resulting in Magnechu moving on to the finals proving that Pikarom is still one of the best decks in the standard format, even after losing some valuable cards in its toolkit from last rotation. Next match was Ryota vs Reynolds, a classic ADPZ vs Blacephalon matchup which resulted in an explosive game three performance from Reynold’s Blacephalon list. With our grand finals matchup confirmed, over 300 viewers watched anxiously to see who would come out on top.
The games were close, and both decks seemed to play nicely for both competitors, but it was Magnechu and his Pikarom list that ended up coming out on top after 2 close games. Magnechu received his congratulations from the entire community, and he secured a convincing victory in grand finals, ending the tournament with a final record of (13-2-2).
As the first Chill TCG Cup finished, we expressed our gratitude to all the players who had competed over the last two days, and announced to everyone our plans for the Chill TCG Cup #2, coming on December 26th 2020, with a $3,000 prize pool at stake – promoting to take the competition to the next level this Holiday Season!
