PAX Arena
at PAX West 2021

PAX is a set of annual pop culture events in cities like Seattle (PAX West) and Boston (PAX East). PAX Arena is PAX's initiative to bring open, highly-produced, exciting esports competitions to all of their attendees. As PAX Arena's lead phrases it, "We're bringing esports to everyone!"

PAX Arena at PAX West 2021 featured a $10,000 "Almost Pro" Guilty Gear -Strive- tournament and a $10,000 (of scholarship funds) VALORANT tournament for high school & collegiate players.

You can view the VOD on Twitch here!

- Managing a team of admins to execute each competition (including overlapping schedules)
