Kax444 Three-peats BBTAG Open Series Monthly Final

Published on: %date%
By: %name%

Kax444 beat King_Rasta in Europe’s August BlazBlue: Cross Tag Battle Open Series Monthly Final to win his third straight PlayStation Tournament.

Kax’s Aegis and Elizabeth tag-team, a combination of low meets top tier, annihilated the competition with long combo strings and aggressive tactics. King_Rasta's Yosuke and Seth took the champ all the way to game 5, but lost to an Astral Finish amidst a back and forth bout. Momentum immediately swung in favor of whichever player drew first blood due to extended strings and optimal assists. Both players main glass cannon characters that sacrifice health for explosive damage, making for an engaging climax at the end of a diverse bracket.
