Wreck the Halls Returns! And, Prizes? Yes, Please!

What’s up, FightRise Family! Dropping this announcement from HotSoup here as this was just shared on the Discord moments ago. Don’t miss out, join the Discord.

Read on about the annual return of our charity stream, the secret mode, and how to win some prizes:

FROM HOTSOUP:

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.

You can learn more about this foundation, their goals, and mission at https://www.raidenscience.org/ as well as follow Raiden’s journey at https://www.youtube.com/@raidensciencefoundation284 .

We’re launching our campaign at http://fightrise.com/charity beginning today. If you are in a position to help, we have a number of incentives available to our donors, especially if you’re in the market for a new leverless controller!

  • FightRise’s official leverless freak, JMro , has kindly donated some of his stock of leverless controllers to be given out as raffle prizes. Both a Snackbox Micro and Haute42 U12 are available. These are fantastic compact options for anyone looking to try out a leverless controller for the first time or have something they can take to a local or tournament without needing too much space in their bag. Both are JMro approved!
  • Community member Flash Galatine with the financial support of many in the FightRise Organizer team has applied their stick building skills in creating a beautiful custom FightRise leverless controller using high quality parts and a custom 3d printed chassis designed around the Brook Gen 5x board interface which provides native support for the Playstation 5! No adapters needed!
  • Basho Fightsticks, a well known name in the premium leverless market, has kindly donated a custom FightRise build for this campaign. It’s an incredible work of art and truly a limited edition. The PCB is built on the very solid GP2040CE platform with a mountain of customization available.

You can purchase entries individually for these controllers, discounted multiple entries, OR take advantage of the incredible 50% discount in getting 5 entries for ALL of these options! The prize drawing will occur on the December 15th stream! We also have a variety of incentives for those not looking for a controller:

  • The newest informational hardcover artbook from the artists at Udon: Street Fighter World Warrior Encyclopedia: World Tour Edition Hardcover . An incredibly comprehensive look at Street Fighter lore. A great Street Fighter collector’s item.
  • We’re giving away two FightRise t-shirts and you have a chance at both with a single entry! These shirts are fantastic and super comfy!
  • Get your chance to choose an emoji for the FightRise discord server or have your very own Street Fighter 6 avatar forever memorialized on a digital baseball card print by our very own ImageOmega. These are available in limited amounts! These are so cool, we’ve got some members planning to print and laminate these!

So please, head to http://fightrise.com/charity to take advantage of these great offerings!

We’re spinning a wheel to determine the winners of these amazing prizes at our planned Wreck the Halls 2024 stream LIVE on Twitch Sunday, December 15th, 8pm EST.

We’ve invited some of the best players in the FightRise and Newbie Fight Club communities to duke it out in this incredibly unique format that mixes baseball with Street Fighter. Something we’re calling cross-up basebrawl! You’ll have to join us to see what the hell I’m talking about because it’s too hard to explain 🙂 . Ultra David will be on commentary with other special guests we haven’t announced yet. It’s going to be such a fun night. Join us!

SPREAD THE WORD! And thank you in advance for your contributions; your donation will go toward one day curing a disease! What an amazing gift of hope you could give to these children that need it the most this time of year. I can’t think of a better sub-community in the FGC to make this goal happen. GO FIGHTRISE!

Note: This is a sweepstakes contest and though a purchase is encouraged to help a good cause, it is not necessary to take part. Full rules are documented here: https://fightrise.com/sweepstakes.
