FROSTY FAUSTINGS IV [January 7th, Northbrook, IL]

[konkrete]

So.

KOF XIII will be a main game at this upcoming Frosty Faustings. If you are in the Midwest you should not miss this, as it is one of Chicago's biggest tournaments. Not to mention the Venue, Nickel City is a great arcade. Double not to mention, Skullgirls will be there to see as well.

Anyway, let's get a good show here. Some MI players will be coming out for sure, and we still have plenty of the silent surrounding area.
Here is the copypasta from the SRK thread:

About me and Frosty Faustings: I used to live in Chicago and am one of the most well known Guilty Gear players from the US. I have been living in Japan for almost 4 and a half years. Every year, I visit Chicago and run Frosty Faustings to help out the scene and get some games in with everyone. Please come support this event!

Good to see more support for the game.  I'll hit up the stream and check it out.

I also strongly recommend to anyone going that you try Skullgirls.  I can speak from personal experience that the game is excellent.
