Our first Road to Season 4 event comes to a close with the crowning of our champion at Frostbite 2019. Spoiler warning ahead as we detail quick hits for people who missed the event and what’s coming up next on the official schedule.
You can find the full tournament playlist on GooshiGaming’s YouTube channel. Days 1 and 2 (doubles with singles down to top 8) are currently live, with the main event top 8 coming soon.
If you’d rather skip right to the end and see some of the action from top 8, we’ve put together a highlight video for the finals day with the help of JarekBloodDragon.
Congratulations to CakeAssault for his first place finish in singles, netting himself a championship ring (one of the coolest prizes we’ve ever given out) along with a travel voucher to Smash’N’Splash 5 – our season 4 RCS opening event.
CakeAssault also took down doubles with the help of his teammate Penguin.
The first of many champions have been crowned at #ComeToFrostbite. Congrats to @PenguinUpB and @CakeAssault_ for the @RivalsOfAether Doubles victory. Please enjoy your championship rings provided by @BaronRings. pic.twitter.com/VLx8tTX5zg

Today we’re announcing a new type of post that you’ll see on RivalsofAether.com. One from contributors in our very own community sharing their stories, articles, videos, experiences, and expertise. If you’re interested in becoming a community contributor, leave a comment here or get in touch with us through any of our social media.
In the meantime, I’m proud to introduce our first community contributor below.
“Hey everybody! My name is Renzo Salazar, I go by just Renzo as my tag in Rivals, and I’m from South Florida. I’ve been playing the game for a pretty long time. I got it the day it came out when I saw Dan post about it in /r/smashbros, and I’ve been hopeful for the game’s success ever since! I’m a long time Orcane main but love playing any character in friendlies.
A little over a year ago I was wondering how I could help the community even more (I attempted but failed to run a local scene in my region while also running the Florida Rivals of Aether discord, where other local scenes are present), when all of a sudden I had a genius idea.
What if someone went through and took all the popular twitch clips of the week, added some other user submitted clips, and put them into a weekly series!
So I’ve been doing that on and off for the past year, even though my upload schedule is a little inconsistent at times, I aim to release my videos anywhere from Sundays-Tuesdays.”
You can find Renzo’s Community Twitch highlights on his social media above, as well as now featured here on RivalsOfAether.com as our first community contributor.
