This was my first major, i went 0-2, but it was fun.
here's a list of observations i made:
1) Everyone looks shorter in person except for Pig Of The Hut. for some reason he's taller in person.
2) MLG's rules are strange
3) Good place to learn. if you dont learn and adapt while playing you will lose.
4) one of the most fun weekends i have had in a while.
5) always do button checks Tom Brady
6) People want to play with you more the better you are.
7) Playing casuals in hotel rooms is really impractical because of both #6 and because of how many people are waiting to play.
8) those chocolate pretzels were ok, but the girls giving them away were... dayum. same for the dr pepper
9) MLG is an expensive venture.
10) everyone was so nice
11) the running gags were funny, but a lot of the shit talking was way over the top.
12) the location could have been better: somewhere closer to more restaurant options.
13) speaking of food, i wish they had food at the venue that wasnt obscenely overpriced.
14) ps all stars was fun, but it's no tournament game. too random.
15) i like all the little giveaways and side stations and whatnot
16) i cannot understand the fanbase for watching starcraft. nor do i understand the hype. it's like a more visual game of chess, how is that hype? wtf.
17) everyone and their mom plays either kabal or cyrax
18) I refuse ever to go 0-2 again. honestly both of my matches were ok, Claude VonStroke adapted a lot better than me and K7L33THA outplayed me, but i know in both there were things i could have done to win.
19) i liked that the stupid people on this site werent there. it was only people who take this game seriously or support the community and not people who come here to bitch or waste time. in order not to derail this thread i wont mention names.
20) Crazy Dominican is rediiiiiculus, much respect.
I will keep adding to this list, but that's what comes to mind right now.
