My 1st Major Tournament Experience with Pics

catch22

GOD LAO FTW!!!
Hello everyone, back at home seet home xD
no more driving 9 hours again, will take a plane next time around :)

WOW, where to begin? well... this was an awesome experience, from TimStatic to JamesSMK and every one in between :)
Watching stream monsters always seemed like they where having a blast, so much fun that i wanted to be part of that along with my kid Alex Jr (AJ From now on)

Well? I am happy to say that it was, and then some xD
the guys where so nice, they where so fucking awesome that when i left, i felt a void, a void that i havent felt in a very long time, as if a piece of me just left and never to return.
I got sad, i will admit that, my son AJ cried himself to sleep, cus he felt the same way, but being a child, he expresses things differently than most adults.

I asked him why he cried, he said he was going to miss them, he had the time of his life, and it ended.
and he just didnt wanted it to end, kinda like how i felt.
i told him that i too felt the same, but that as long as he continue to behave and do good in school, he would see them again :)

He did better than me in the tournament lol
but he has ways to go, the more he plays plays the type of players he played at SBV, the better he will get.
as long as good grades and behaving are all in order :)

Big shout outs to:
Mace Wind / Hitoshura / Maxter / Tim Static / Shock / JamesSMK / Tom Brady / Eric Warda / Doctor Rouse / Dark Rob / 9.95 / Classy Sasquatch / Reo / Soonk / Chaos Sphere / THTB / AU_WANNA_DIE.

I know kinda how you 2 fellt, but than on another place.

feels good to heard you both had a good time, and your son will improve every day.

just a question.

when is he going to pick a real character to Main, learning everything about the character and match-ups and such.

did you let him work in his poking game? does he know something about frames and frame advantage?
