What is CLASH?
CLASH is the ICTSA’s annual gaming convention. Traditionally an online event, CLASH saw a shift to a hybrid setup last year, with online qualifiers leading up to a LAN final at the University of Malta.
For casual gamers, the main event will feature more than just the tournament finals. There will be plenty of activities ranging from retro classics to VR, multiplayer battles, and tabletop showdowns! The best part? All of these activities are FREE!
This year, the ICTSA are also expanding the convention to include a new art room section where any artist can reserve a stall to sell and showcase their work! Interested artists can apply here!

Furthermore an MVP will be chosen from amongst all the tournaments and awarded with an individual trophy.
It’s great to see the ICTSA continue to build on the success of CLASH year after year. For more information and further announcements leading up to the event, be sure to follow the ICTSA on their Instagram and Facebook!
