Looking back on NEC at Localhost Philadelphia
by Brian Bencomo
This past weekend, the Northeast Championship (NEC) took place at Nerd Street’s brand new Localhost gaming facility known as The Block in Philadelphia. The fighting game tournament crowned champions in Street Fighter V, Guilty Gear Strive, Tekken 7, Soulcalibur VI and other games. It’s one of the few offline tournaments that have started to pop up since the esports world went online in light of the COVID-19 pandemic. Here’s a look at some of the best shots from the weekend at The Block.
