CONTEST DETAILS

Contestants will have their Cosplays reviewed on the following criteria:

  • Craftsmanship: The stitching, fabric selection, form, fit, and construction of your costume. This category includes prop-making in our contest.
  • Accuracy: How well your costume represents your character. 
  • Originality: Is our costume unique? Did it require inventive crafting to realize?
  • Presence: Do you bring your character to life? 
  • Weaponry Rule: Only blunted, wood, plastic, or otherwise non-lethal weaponry will be allowed as part of COMBO BREAKER’s Cosplay Contest
  • Contestants are encouraged to bring in-progress photos and reference images for their Cosplay if they are available

COMBO BREAKER’s contest is open to cosplayers of all skill levels, but our Finalists will need to display great skill and a love of fighting game characters to go home awarded. All costumes will be judged singularly, with no additional favor shown to group costumery.
