Absolutely fantastic read...
Don’t know why but I almost cried at the end of the article (although the to do list was funny^^)
I wish I could attend live but hey, I’m gonna be in front of my computer for Anaheim and hope it’s at least as awesome!

great writeup :D

Cannot wait until the next MLG, going to be sooooo goold.

MLG really delivered and even though I bought last time and would have purchased steam HQ as well I've bought the dual pass for next two events, hopefully the crowd, and the games are just as awesome :D

great, great read. I have to agree, it was the best event in the history of sc2 and they really made up for dallas.

I thought the fanhype was kinda gone after IEM but MLG, SC2 and ESPORT proved me wrong. Oh man we will have a bright future ahead of us and Annaheim will be a BIG part of it!

I noticed how mma also used his drops to gain position on the map with his tank+marine army. This would allow him to get his third or fourth base up or just get a superior position on his opponent. Just dropping randomly and not using it as a tool to gain a position while their army is distracted is kinda useless because you can't be sure to do damage with the drop. Its best used as a distraction especially when the mutas are pulled from harassing the terrans base or main army. Great play from MMA, really nice to see. ^_^

Except this time we were not watching on internet streams in the middle of the night.

I certainly was.
A great event, and a cool writeup too.

love your write up, HB. Really brought the atmosphere and emotions of the MLG to those who could only watch from afar.

Is Milkis on staff for MLG or just volunteering? If a volunteer, I hope MLG hires him and throws some compensation his way. Maybe he can become our John the Translator. MLG is having Koreans every time so they need someone anyways.
