If Super Smash Bros. Ultimate deserves the category as a fighting game it has been a recent debate. And although it carries 21 years since the launch of the first title of the saga, there are still many who do not want that title to appear as within the fight genre. The most critical and defenders of this vision, argue that this game lacks the traditional life bar characteristic of the most competitive fighting games and that in addition, a fighting game must always be one on one. For these reasons, there have been many who have complained about the implementation of Super Smash Bros. Ultimate in Evolution Championship Series, also known as Evo. But leaving internal wars in the genre, the real controversy has been to present the awards of the last edition. Here we leave you the list of the games that form the competition and the prize that each winner will receive:
- Street Fighter V: 1 million yen (€ 8,300.13)
- Tekken 7: 1 million yen (€ 8,300.13)
- Samurai Shodown: 500,000 yen (€ 4,150.06)
- Soulcaliber 7: 500,000 yen (€ 4,150.06)
* Blazblue: Cross Tag Battle: 500,000 yen (€ 4,150.06) - Super Smash Bros. Ultimate: Nintendo Switch Pro Controller
Would we be talking about a symbolic prize for the new fighting game that enters the competition? In addition, the rest of the games have monetary prizes for those who are between second and seventh place in the competition. Awards ranging from 30,000 to 400,000 yen, depending on the game. In these cases, the smallest of the prizes of any of the competitions could buy up to four times the prize of the first position of Super Smash Bros. Ultimate. Similarly, the Nintendo game has only one prize for the winner, the rest of the finalists will not get anything.
