EPTINTRO
+ Show Spoiler +
As some of you already know, Game Nation Canada has shown strong interest in promoting e-Sports across the local scene in the Greater Toronto Area. With Starcraft II being one of the hottest games out today, it is our main focus to bring the community events, tournaments and leagues (in the near future) with great prize pools.
We are excited to host multiple gaming events at local pubs where everyone can just hang out, meet people (YES LOTS OF FEMALES NOT A SAUSAGE FEST!) and enjoy the pros do their thing! Casual gamers are welcome to play at one of our several gaming stations located throughout the bar.
Our goal is simple - to bring together a community of gamers and the general public to promote e-Sports locally.
Game Nation Canada has already hosted a successful gaming event a few months ago (promo video bellow) and now we want to bring in Starcraft II as our main game of the night by letting a few local pros play a mini-tournament, show it on a big screen at the venue (yes we will be streaming it as well) and have a live MC commentate the games!
