Injustice 2 at Weds Night Fights!



Injustice 2 joins the roster of games at Weds Night Fights! Sponsored prizes will be distributed to top 3 finalists at the end of the Season. Looking forward to seeing top level Injustice 2 every week!

Wednesday Night Fights 2017 tournament season is here and we are gearing up for another awesome year of fighting game action in SoCal. Teaming up with the beautiful eSports Arena in downtown Santa Ana, we have the space to host the most popular fighting game titles all under one roof! Speaking of popular titles, we are expecting a large influx of new players due to updates and new game releases such as Street Fighter V Season 2, Injustice 2, Tekken 7, Guilty Gear Xrd Revelator 2, and Marvel vs Capcom Infinite. Most of our tournaments are community driven which means they are ran by local community leaders to ensure a quality tournament with the fighting game community. Various tournament titles will also have prizing support by WNF partners at the end of each season and giveaways for our viewers on stream!

You can catch the show on our twitch.tv/leveluplive main stream or twitch.tv/team/wnf for community driven streams.

Casuals starts at 7PM
Tournaments starts at 9:30PM
Injustice 2 Platform: PlayStation 4

eSports Arena Address:

120th West 5th Street Santa Ana, California 92701



Bring Your Own Console (BYOC)

One of the core features of Weds Night Fights is having dedicated BYOC sections throughout eSports Arena. We feel having a BYOC at all times increases the amount of play time for tournament players and to introduce new players to the scene. We have 2 levels of BYOC space throughout the venue so first come, first serve to set up shop with your favorite titles! (Please Note: We have limited supplies of consoles since many are used for WNF tournaments.)

Community Outreach

Many community members join events and are genuinely interested in starting a scene on their own. Finding affordable venue space with adequate power, internet, tables, and chairs however can be extremely overwhelming for anybody. We understand the hardships and want to offer you an opportunity to grow the scene the right way. We want to work with passionate members of the community to be ambassadors of your favorite titles. If you are interested in community building, we will provide you/your organization a road map on how to promote, run tournaments, acquire set ups, and stream on your own channel at WNF! Your event will be promoted throughout our social mediums every week and your stream channel will be part of our Level Up Team Member’s page on Twitch! All YouTube replays from your archives will also remain on your channel! If you are interested, please send us an email at [email protected]
