SonicFox wins first LEVO Guilty Gear Strive tournament

In what's categorially the first big Guilty Gear Strive tournament, Dominique "SonicFox" McLean won the first edition of Strive LEVO battling against some of the toughest opposition the North American FGC has to offer.

The Dragon Ball FighterZ, Mortal Kombat 11, and Injustice 2 Evo winner defeated TempestNYC in an exhilarating Grand Finals, with SonicFox forced to defeat their fellow East Coast representative in two sets after being sent to losers by Steve "Supernoon" Carbajal.

LEVO, which is organized by Smash Melee icon William "Leffen" Hjelte, featured some of NA's finest from different scenes, including Street Fighter V's Victor "Punk" Woodley, DBFZ's Reynald, MvC's Jonathon "Cloud805" Morales, and many more, making the first edition of Guilty Gear Strive LEVO a treat for fans, who flocked to the stream making it peak at over 18k viewers.
