As someone who has sat in front of a camera bringing you coverage of the SCG Tour® for the past four years, rarely am I nervous when the red light turns on. But on Friday, I definitely was. Fortunately our host, Marcus “DJ Wheat” Graham, made things easy, fun, and segued us beautifully to the things we were there to unveil.
Which brings me to why you’re reading this article. What did we unveil at PAX East? Quite a few things!

The Playmat and Token for the Season Two Regional Championships
Things to note:

I’d like to take this time to thank the wonderful people at Twitch for allowing us to unveil all of this cool stuff at PAX East, as well as you for supporting the SCG Tour®. Without your support, we wouldn’t even be a blip on Twitch’s incredibly large radar, so many thanks to you and I hope to see you in some capacity during Season Two and Three of the SCG Tour®!
