Amazingly well run tournament this time round. Even me with the most horrible broadband connection known to man was able to watch the streams with ease and loved every game! I didnt even mind waiting in between games because the crowd was so fun. I loved the sign saying Need MOAR Chairs or something along those lines... it was a really cool event IMO! Good Job everyone that done their part, espeically Milkis for the awesome translation - The English to English made me lol too :D - ur awesome milkis! :D

Love the MC 2-0 Bomber. Took me a second lol.
Great write up. I am looking so forward to Anaheim. Hope it can live up to the Hype Columbus got.
I know I will be in the crowd cheering my ass off.

Hot_Bid and tree.hugger did an incredible job on this. The near-perfect writeup to a near-perfect MLG?

Imo you got the best moments partially wrong,

top1 moment should be IdrA quitting after MMA destroys his own gold base, as well as most drama!

i mean seriously, i cannot imagine a better moment to happen within the next 10 years. i haven't seen anything close to that ever. i laughed out loud as much that i was close to crying :D

also, great writeup, can't wait for Anaheim, hoping for Boxer or NaDa to up the stakes!

Excellent and riveting read. It'd be interesting(if it's not already out there) to get a video-POV inside the MLG SC booths with Hot_Bid.

I still get goosebumps when I see or hear the crowd at that event, it blew my mind the size and energy that was the spectators at Columbus. The fact we had that crowd at a SC2 event is absolutely incredible.

"satellite truck does not allow me to troll it" Hot _Bid is a boss.

Exellent writeup!

MLG was a really kick-ass event, looking forward a lot to next one, will buy an HD-pass for sure.

(Would have liked the whole "dude loosing his groupie GF to SC2 pros"-drama on the top5 for drama but that appeared after the event i guess).
