Corey “Foxxy” Hupe will be heading straight to the first Australian Red Bull Wings Cup National Final this December. Corey, a caster, content creator and former esports pro secured his place at PAX Australia at the Red Bull Wings Cup Wildcard Tournament, “Beat the Streak”, knocking out multiple other PAX attendees competing in “Rush Mode” in EA SPORTS FC™ 27.
“I’m over the moon about the win. I came here this morning thinking I’d have no chance to win and managed to win nine in a row,” said Corey when asked how he was feeling about the win.
It was a nail-biting fish with another esports pro, Matthew McKenna also scoring a streak of nine wins right at the end of the day. The two went head-to-head in a final game to decide the ultimate winner for the day.
“I’m excited to be on the big stage in Sydney for the National Finals but I’m going to take it one day at a time. I want to be the one people remember.”
PAX attendees will have one more chance to win a spot at the National Finals during PAX tomorrow (Sunday). Fans can line up at the Red Bull Wings Cup booth to play in seven-minute sessions, gamers will have to lock in and maintain the highest streak of wins on the leaderboard playing” Rush Mode” in EA SPORTS FC™ 27 to secure victory, in this “beat the streak” format.
