INFO

Fight For Youth is a charity tournament being held to benefit ASES Prep, which is the afterschool program that operates in 12 schools in the Norwalk/La Mirada School District. Funds raised will go towards their "Afterschool's Got Talent" show on May 16th which will be held at Excelsior Auditorium in Norwalk. The money will also be used to rent charter buses that allow the kids to take field trips to locations farther than the immediate vicinity of Norwalk.

The tournament will be held April 14th at Sanchez Elementary in Norwalk, CA. Featured games are Ultimate Marvel Vs. Capcom and Street Fighter X Tekken (doubles). Doors open at 10am and tournament starts at 11am.

The beginning of the end for AE in USA.

Why would you say it's the beginning of the end of AE? It is still extremely popular in tournaments and you have to remember that organizer (Clockwork) is SFxT and UMVC3 player, I don't even remember him playing AE recently.

LOL, I think the reason SF4 isn't there because they only wanted 2 games and SFxT is the new hotness(well not really lol). Plus Clockwork isn't a SF4 player(or a SF player at all), and it's his tournament. But attendance for SF4 is still pretty strong and on par with these 2. Don't expect SF4 to drop to MK or Tekken levels anytime soon(when it comes to attendance that is).

Tatsu being first is anti-climactic since he got rid of the tatsu-police look.


Great cause, proud of these guys for putting this together.
 
Excuse me while I throw up, I can't watch this monstrosity. Tatsu should have never been there, he didn't deserve this. This shouldn't be happenening :*(
