The Clutch CGC is the Midwest's newest competitive gaming platform created by Anime Magic! & organized by Unified Esports Association.

It is an event hosted within an event, where Clutch takes place as part of the programming for the Anime Magic! 2023 anime convention located at the Hyatt O'Hare Regency, August 18-20th. in Rosemont, Illinois.

In this first year we will be hosting a cash prize tournament for Street Fighter 6 as well as casual community focused Super Smash Brothers Ultimate & Mario Kart Deluxe 8 events during the event weekend.

Our hope is to grow our event into setting a community standard for any and all competitive video gaming formats, where eventually Clutch is King!
