It's time for the first local Marvel vs. Capcom 3 Tournament in the New River Valley! We've rented out one of the largest rooms on Virginia Tech's campus to accommodate any number of people who wish to compete. We encourage people of all skill levels to attend, as we are focused on providing both serious competition and a healthy venue for new tournament players to enter the tournament community.
There are plenty of quality and cheap hotels around Blacksburg and nearby Christiansburg and Radford for people coming from out of town. Here is a quick search on hotels.com for you travelers out there: http://www.hotels.com/search.do?des...=USD&minp=0&maxp=500&ming=0&maxg= 5&r=2&cpr=0
Play some serious competition then hit up downtown Blacksburg! All of the bars/restaurants are a 5-minute walk from the venue, and every Saturday night guarantees craziness from the Virginia Tech students.
