Akai Leagues 2025

12 month late update of VFDC thread, but things are still going on a regular weekly basis!

Europe PSN League, 2nd Quarter Week 8

Current Leader - Khan Rhan (AO)
Khan Rhan maintains the top spot for 4 consecutive weeks, getting one first place finish and BoxPizza getting two first place finish last weekend.

Europe Steam League, 2nd Quarter Week 8

Current Leader - Henpyxa (PA)
The largest leader board this quarter so far with 25 different players getting a top 3 finish! The top 4 on the leader board remains the same as of week 7. D-X Lau got 2 first place finishes making him jumped 10 places higher on the board. 40i4 won the second league which was a full 16-player league room. We also have VF veterans Ares Olimpico and eisenbuegelhammer (STPRock) participating for the first time in the Steam League.

North America PSN League, 2nd Quarter Week 8

Current Leader - Chanchai (LI)
Chanchai remains at the top spot on PSN side for 4 consecutive weeks. live4eva won 2 leagues, while Setsuna won 1. Chanchai's lead narrows and with 4 league sessions remain for the quarter (`12 leagues) everyone still has a chance to be at the top!

North America Steam League, 2nd Quarter Week 8

Current Leader - daRockReaper (BL)
Real Noodle won the first league of the day (8A), raising some eyebrows for his strong performance. Chanchai won the second league (8B), putting him at the top of the leader board briefly before daRockReaper reclaim the top spot by sharing a first place finish with Blurring in the last league of the day (8C). In the last league, Blurring's only lost was against daRockReaper, but in the final round HecticFall defeated daRockReaper creating the tie. Every player ina league is a factor of the outcome! Speial Shoutout to LD Wells for getting a hat trick for third place).

Some emergency repairs to the house, so no #VF5US #VF5REVO league session this weekend July 5-6. We will start the third quarter on July 12-13.

Also July 26-27 and August 2-3 weekend no league sessions as that will by my yearly family reunion.

 

The league leaders for the 2nd Quarter of 2025 -

Chanchai (LI) for both NA Steam and PSN Leagues

Khan Rhan (AO) for EU PSN League

RagingMARS (GO) for EU Steam League.

3rd Quarter of 2025 resets the leader board and will be from July to September. Every week with a break on July 26-27 and August 2-3 as those will be the annual family reunion for me.

Some reflection and a lot of looking back at old data, I will likely TRY (emphasis on try, don't know if I will be able to maintain it) is do what these league sessions was best for - recognizing all participants, where everyone knows everyone.

 

As of Week 1 of the 3rd Quarter, leading each league in top finishes.

• EU PSN League - Sandro (SA),
• EU Steam League - D-X (LA) / Henpyxa (PA),
• NA PSN League - live4eva (KA, AK, JA),
• NA Steam League - Tricky (EI)

No Akai League sessions for the next two weekends as it is the yearly family reunion. I will restart the league sessions (Week 3) on August 9-10th weekend.

 

Spreadsheet keeping track of player participation and for future use. We have over 400 participants since started hosting league session in 2022. We are closing in to 200 participants for 2025, and maybe 100 participants just for the third quarter of 2025 (July - September).

Hey everyone, I need to take care of some family health issues so I will not be hosting league session on August 15-16. I hope to host again on August 22-23!

 

Update: no leagues this weekend August 22-23. I will post again when I know for sure that I will be able to host. Apologies for any inconvenience.

 

Just a quick update, I plan to restart the weekend league sessions on the second weekend of October 11-12. So the "third quarter of 2025" will have 3 more sessions before we transition to combining the separate PSN and Steam leagues to cross-play leagues.

 

Starting in November, the PSN and Steam leagues I run ( will be merged to a single Cross-Platform league playable on both Saturday and Sunday. I made two polls on X/Twitter on which character to be shown in the in-game lobby to help distinguish Europe and North America league rooms from each other. For those that don't know, I run the Europe and North America league rooms simultaneously.

Reminder starting November 1st, the Akai League sessions will be hosted on both Saturday and Sunday cross platforms (4th Quarter, Season 0). Note that daylight savings time change for USA on Sunday.

So you can play on both Saturdays and Sundays. No more separate PSN and Steam Leagues. For those that want to be more involved with the leagues (not required), there are plans to do a post-season solo and team playoffs.

 

1st day of Akai Leagues #VF5REVO World Stage completed! Next one is Sunday! Some in-game issues, but more so of getting people into the right room! There will be two "Akai" rooms. One for Europe & one for North America. Also PSA for Steam players: Enable cross play in settings.

We have players from Steam, PS5, and Xbox playing together!
