Exhibition

East Coast vs. West Coast crew battle

An East vs. West Coast crew battle was held at the event at the end of Friday. Note that players represented the coast that they are originally from, regardless of them having moved or not. [2]

The results of the crew battle are tabulated below. West Coast ended up winning the crew battle by 5 stocks. Mango has been named VIP of the crew battle for taking eight stocks off of three of the best players in the world (PPMD, Mew2King, and Hungrybox). The East Coast was widely criticized for sending Hungrybox's Jigglypuff to fight Mango's Fox.
