Hi FightRise community!
Wreck the Halls returns this year and we would love your support again this holiday season. We're teaming up with legendary commentator and veteran of the fighting game community, Ultra David himself, to support the Raiden Science Foundation, an organization researching cures for rare diseases starting with UBA5 Disorder.
UBA5 is a life-threatening genetic disease that affects the nervous system and severely raises the chance of young lives being lost in just their first few years after birth. The foundation is named after Raiden Pham, an incredible 4 year old, fighting to live a normal life with this disease and hoping that one day soon this debilitating condition can be cured.

Bringing the best events to our FightRise community is what we are all about! Besides just wrapping up Urge to Fight 10, our One Fight Stand Double Elimination, and getting ready to unleash the Terry Scavenger Hunt... We have ONE MORE EVENT coming your way!
This October we are experimenting with our very first Street Fighter League: BIG LEAGUE KO. What makes this event special? Well, it is a month long league that will culminate into playoffs from the top contenders.
Each week every player will be responsible to play two matches against preset opponents in their pool. Oh, and the pools are all balanced by skill level, which will make the games more competitive and give players the best chance to level up.
Players have the flexibility of scheduling their own matches against their determined opponents. The top 4 from each pool will battle it out in a single elimination tournament during the final week for a prize!
The good news is that this is our very first one and, if it's a success, we'd love to do more. So far it's received a lot of hype!
The bad news is... if you weren't in the Discord the first 24 hours of this being announced, you missed your sign-up window. We filled up every slot almost immediately.
But, the other good news is, you don't have to miss out on the next one. Join the Discord and be there for when we announce the next one. Plus, you can join in for our One Fight Stand Round Robins and Terry Scavenger Hunt! See you there.

Plus, kicking off the action we are bringing back our Boss Battle challenge. GreekFire will hold down a Battle Hub cabinet and stave off all challengers who would like to rob them of their King of the Hill prize.
Then we go right into our Team Battle featuring WASEDA rules. Team Canada will be represented by wkd, JMro, Mouse, MrLobo, and Schauncey. Team USA's roster will be led by Lazyboredom with Inari, NoH2O, ClemPRime13, and Duozza.

One person... that's all we had in the Discord just over a year ago. Today, FightRise is over 500 members strong and has achieved some wild milestones for a brand new Street Fighter 6 community.
From building fighters up from Rookie ranks to Masters, colliding two nations against each other in an Urge to Fight brawl, hosting over twenty One Fight Stand community events that boosted skill and morale, to having some of the greatest legends in the FGC grace our Auditorium... we've been fortunate to serve our FightRise community.
And, is barely a drop in the bucket of all the milestones and community events we really put in the less than a year that Street Fighter 6 has been released. That's why this next milestone is so special.
Not only did this milestone start as mere fleeting conversation, but it all happened faster than we could have imagined. And much of that is thanks to our amazing FightRise community. All of you FightRisers make every day being a part of this community so phenomenal. And, I am so glad we get to share this next one with you...
This week, FightRise is proud to officially announce, we have signed and our sponsoring our first competitive fighter who is set to compete at CEO 2024... He was a man with a simple dream as he has visions of being one of the finalists to walk out for Top 8 at CEO.
And, if you have seen his Marisa (or have been on the other side of the fighting stage), you understand why we believe in him and are excited to cheer him on every step of the way...
So, how did all this come to be? Well, let me highlight a few things for you if you'd be so kind to stay while and listen.
