Held in November 2022 at the Cobb Galleria in Atlanta, GA, the BCX World Championship is the 7th annual event of its kind. It is also the biggest Brawlhalla esports tournament ever, and the first open, in-person event with attendees since 2019. Developed by Atlanta-based Blue Mammoth Games and published by Ubisoft, Brawlhalla is an immensely popular free platform fighting game with over 80 million players worldwide. Beyond the competition itself and the opportunity for fans to congregate and meet other like-minded individuals, the event was a full expo featuring a variety of activities and series of developer panels throughout the 3-day event.
Given the overall scope of the 2022 BCX World Championship, a substantial communications network consisting of a variety of systems and different manufacturers' technology was necessary. And Clear-Com was integral to ensuring all those elements played well together.
Designing and implementing comms systems in the esports space can be challenging, explains Dylen Roberts, Director of Production Operations for Skillshot Media, the company mounting the event. It's a space where many people don't know how the systems interact. There are a lot of different systems that have to talk to each other that you wouldn't normally use in traditional sports environments.
As a longtime Clear-Com partner, Skillshot's use of Clear-Com technology is almost like beta-testing products for the Esports environment, Roberts adds, citing the company's early adoption of Clear-Com products, including HelixNet, FreeSpeak II, the recently released Arcadia platform, and Station and Agent IC.
For the BCX World Championship, Skillshot deployed a system comprising an Eclipse HX-Median frame, two E-DANTE and one E-IPA interface card, five FreeSpeak II transceivers, 20 FSII beltpacks, 12 V-Series Iris panels, and three Station-IC Virtual Desktop Client and Agent-IC Mobile App licenses.
Coordinating the various systems and ensuring they're working correctly and set up clearly requires a lot of hands, brains, and voices, Roberts notes, adding that the amount of traffic and conversation flow for an event like this goes well beyond everybody taking orders. There's a lot of two-way traffic in the communication workflow, so we always bring in a comms specialist to put the puzzle pieces together. In this case, that was Clear-Com Product Manager Frank Linton, who worked closely with Skillshot on the system design and wa
