Sydney fighter fans should get themselves down to The Red Room on York Street to check out the tenth OzHadou Nationals this weekend. This tourney is part of local seeding for EVO, arguably the world’s most important fighter event, so it’s a must-attend for competitors and fans alike ahead of the July event in Las Vegas. Super Street Fighter IV: Arcade Edition, Ultimate Marvel vs. Capcom 3, Soul Calibur 5 and King of Fighters XIII are on the roster, and in addition to the door fee there’s a charge to take part in casual play. The competition starts today and run all weekend; hit up the website for more information.

Aksys Games has announced BlazBlue Revolution, the largest 3v3 tournament for the Arc System Works fighter series to date. The finals will be held in Japan in March 2012, and Aksys will supply airfares and accommodation to the winning trio of the US arm – plus a special bonus if by some twist of fate, they beat their Japanese rivals. Haaaa. US qualifiers will play out in Southern California, and more details will be available through the event’s website on December 17.

BlazBlue is a series of closely-interlinked fighters with an emphasis on technical combos, much like spiritual precursor Guilty Gear. It boasts two core entries, one spin off, plus portable versions and revisions.

Wanna be the very best, like no one ever was? A series of events across Europe, the UK and the US beginning next month will culiminate in a Pokémon Black and White World Championship in August.
