The first seeded 5on5 tournament in the Virtua Fighter Relationship's (VFR) 14th season took place this past weekend (January 13th, 2013). The seeded VFR tournaments give the most valuable player in the winning team a favorable position in the Beat Tribe Cup. The Newton Cup is unique in that it encourages the players to form teams based on the concept of "generations" - common bonds shared between players for a fighting game series in its 20th year. 160 players in 32 teams total participated in this event.
