We simply wish to provide a kind and casual community for those who want to relax and play video games after a long week of classes. While we mainly have setups for Super Smash Bros Ultimate, we also have other fighting games such as Super Smash Bros. Melee, Guilty Gear Strive, Tekken 8, Street Fighter 6, Marvel vs Capcom, and many more! We also welcome recommendations if there's a specific game you'd like to play! We hold weekly free-to-enter Super Smash Bros Ultimate tournaments that start at 7:30 PM, so test your might against the best here! Club meetings will be every Thursday except when the Campus is closed during the holidays.
