i really need to blog this out
i really havent slept. im kinda too excited. i got out of bed (was reading stuff cause summer homework durr ;; ), my mom was up and shes like ok lets go get donuts. obviously i agree and, at the moment, am eating an apple fritter ^^
she asks me what time i need to be at the convention center. I went to MLG anahiem in 09 ( if anyone sees me with the shirt that says 'sbeasting' on the back, say hi ^^), so my mom knows that im kinda into this whole MLG thing. she knows how much time i play/watch video games and that i adjusted my sleep schedule for GSL. so yeah she knows im completely into videogames, much to her dismay
I just tell her, well. damn. im so excited. like, Mvp, one of my favorite players (maybe i shouldnt have mentioned to my mom that he was cute oO) is there. boxer, a legend. mma, drg, alicia, choya, rain, ganzi, oz. koreans! and then theres the americans...
ive been qxc fan since i saw his play during beta, when i could only watch MLGs king of the beta because i had never played any starcraft. i remember cheering during IEM USA when he beat huk, who i'd also liked. and qxc is gonna be, what, at anaheim? oh my fucking god.
im just so excited for this. all my dreams are kinda coming true and im so glad i get to be there.
the best part is that ive followed pro halo wayyy longer than pro sc2 and the fact that they're both there at the same event is awesome
oh and do i need to explain the fact that str8's '08 (or is it '09) lineup, aka MONSTROUS, with t2, legit, neighbor, and elamite are going to play? Im pretty fucking hyped for this. and then tD (triggers down), the beast of halo 3 that completely stole the show from the str8 lineup in '09 are back with none other than pistola. instinct (aka team that dropped 1 map at columbus. 1 map, in reach. thats fucking dominance) is gonna show ofcourse. and then, carbon. i started watching in halo 2 when carbon and fb were the two TOP TOP TOP teams. like, jd and flash level dominance. but maybe less sexy. and i always cheered for carbon. however flawed this new carbon is (the old h2 member, ghostayame who was on team classic for quite a while decided to revive it with, lol, soldier187 + 2 relatively unknowns, that have been around for a while), carbon is fucking back. oh. my. god.
and then back to starcraft. where itll be impossible to see everything and ill probably just find a seat somewhere and watch the casting.
My plans:
today (friday): watch starcraft and ofc the fb/carbon match on the halo section ( i think its today) wearing: MLG '09 battle for anaheim shirt, grey jeans
saturday: well shit i need to make a sign for the championship bracket sunday: hold my signs up <3
im really fucking pumped. im sorry not many people care about halo, and are disappointed that i cant cover how much starcraft theres gonna be and all the people im watching out for. but i mean holy crap.
im gonna buy a few MLG shirts to have signed, of course. and the anaheim '11 one for the memories. <3
glhf everyone participating and ill see you in like 6 hours
thank God for starcraft and MLG

I'll admit, I lost track somewhere in the latter part of the blog, but I can certainly tell you're excited. Hope you have a great time at MLG!
|
I'm also really looking forward to see how a reunited Str8 Rippin will do! Probably my all-time favourite Halo team, I hope they'll do big things this weekend. Have fun!
|
Str8 represent.
EDIT: We all know tD is beast though.

you sound like somebody who might know this - does Karma (from carbon) still play?
|
yeah since i saw the MLG event popping up in the queue of the upcomming events on the right i'm starring at it O_O
TIME - Y U NO MOVE FASTER ?
|
Sounds like your gonna have some fun, let me know if you want to practice on the ladder some time, been a while since playing you at NOGSBEE.
|
I'm pretty hyped as well (only stream for me tho). Was planning on fixing my sleep schedule (eu here), but mlg is mlg ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
|
I didn't sleep much too...
|
I love you. I love Starcraft. I love being a Nerd. I love Day9. I love the fact that MLG is here, dunno if love MLG. If I do, its because they are bringing me Starcraft.
|
Have fun Jules I'm sure I'll have to deal with you after MLG for awhile hahaha.
|
Wait what... Neighbs is back with old Str8? I thought Legit retired? I stopped following I think late 09, but still casually looked at team lineups every now and then.
|
I cant wait as well! i also started following MLG Halo back in the end of the halo 2 days and halo 3 starting. I cant wait too see Str8 blowing kids up. Oh how i missed them! Though ill probably watching a lot more starcraft then halo ( reach was such a downer), im still excited for both of them. I already see tons of MLG fans at the hotel and im staying in and i cant wait until i am at the actual convention center. I will be doing the ticketing at MLG so if anyone sees me (guy with black glasses, long black hair) say hi! =D

I wish I lived in Anaheim 
I wish my parents would let me adjust my sleep schedule for GSL 
|
So day 1 was fucking awesome
like, amazing. i saw all the mainstage games except for slush MMA (i chose to watch boxer v sheth at the secondary stage instead). watched a lot of halo cause instinct is amazing, basically the sc2 section had no chairs so i sat at the halo section's right side (since the stages were halo, sc2, cod) and got to watch both. :D
hyped for tomorrow, ill have a huge ass whiteboard to write stuff.

I was always an Instinct fan since they started. They are the team I'm always rooting for. They don't change their roster too much(why would they) and they have been performing pretty well consistently from the start. I wish Ogre 1 comes back
