Metal Ajit Pai

Characters » Veterans Posted on

After his crushing defeat in the last tournament, Ajit Pai, now a sentient pile of dust, comes back with a vengeance… and a giant mech sponsored by Reese’s® peanut butter. Armed with a massive Nerf gun and fidget spinner, he is equipped to rule the Internet with an iron fist… and, of course, finally make his dreams of a Harlem Shakeover a reality.

Announcing a Delay for the King for Another Day Tournament

News Posted on

It is with some regret that today we announce that we have made the decision to delay the start date of the King for Another Day Tournament.

This isn’t a decision we made lightly, of course, but, the people working hard to bring you this special event have been through so much this year and simply need more time to make this the best that it can be, and as good as it truly should be. We are still currently planning on launching the tournament before the end of Summer 2019 as planned, but, even if that date is missed, the tournament will not be cancelled.

And remember, in the immortal words of Albert Einstein himself: “a rushed tournament is bad forever, but a delayed tournament can eventually be good”.

As a consolation, please check out a brand new full original song, “VS Fighting Placeholder Team”.
