This past E3, Nintendo's Super Smash Brothers Invitational @ E3 garnered a lot of attention from the gaming media and the Smash community alike. One of the competitors at the invitational, community figure Lil 'Milktea' Chen, recorded a lot of backstage footage in order to give the community a behind-the-scenes look at the inner workings of the E3 Invitational. Her video includes many familiar faces from Smash as well as League of Legends - fans of the deeper community aspect of Smash will be sure to appreciate it. Watch the vlog below!

What did you think? Make your voice heard in the comments below!

The Derrit wishes he had been there for everything so he could get in on the joke around weird hashtags like #ihatetafokints. Chat with him on Twitter at @TheDerrit.

Vid started off looking like a weird gaming rave aha. Nice to see so many of the big personalities of the smash community just enjoying themselves together :D

Smash might be the only Reality TV thing I could enjoy. Questioning my interests now lol

I think the reason why at the invitational a few people kept holding up the Pikachu signs was because Milktea was using Pikachu. Someone held that sign up every round.

Props to Milktea for showing the rest of us around like that.

I hope Sakurai and Nintendo see this and just know how much the whole event meant to everyone in the community.

This was great, I'm glad Milktea was able to do this, it looked like a lot of fun. I'm hoping that there will be another invitational sometime. And her hair is awesome.

Why did you go blond Milktea, WHYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY!!!!!!!!!!
Perhaps Lilian forgot that she wasn't allowed to change anything that _she_ approves of towards her appearance without clarifying whether Paradoxium approved of her decisions or not.

Screw her, right? :rolleyes:

Great little documentation of the behind the scenes of E3 and the people who went to the invitational. Loved the video, loved the brotherhood between everybody, and loved how excited everyone was. I got excited about this past E3 just watching this, haha. Well done!

Great Vlog, Milktea! :D It helped me relive the events of E3, it felt like a very special time to time, and I'm glad you showed us a bit of the inner workings, and why Smash Bros. unites players across the world.

So what if i think Brunette hair looks better than blond? I didn't say anything mean or wrong, I just asked why she went blond. This is smashboards, where we are allowed to state our opinions, if you aren't okay with that then you should probably head back to tumblr.

If you posted a picture of yourself and someone was like 'your hair's the wrong color' or 'why are his arms and legs so hairy?????' they'd be reaching past the bounds of decency.

What you said pretty much implied that she made a mistake in changing her appearance, and that your opinion on what she looks like is the more valid of the two. Not cool. Also watch your language.

Both of you need to calm down. He asked a question with an implication that he isn't fond of it, not that he despises it.

If everything was butt bumping happy agree all the time land we wouldn't be where we are today.

I bet it took a lot of balls to single out a person for his opinion on hairstyles.

I'm glad you think objectification isn't a big deal.

I didn't reach past the bounds of decency, I also did not say anything mean or offensive and I certainly was not trying to be rude . She looks good in blond, but imo I think she looked better with darker hair. If a unanimous poster were to say that to me over the internet I wouldn't care, I don't think anyone should care if a random poster on smashboards with a shadow the hedgehog portrait likes brunette more than blond. You two make it sound like I straight up said she was ugly, all I did was ask why she went blond. Seriously you guys sound like tumblr regulars, who immediately strike down anyone who states an opinion about someones appearance. If i were to cross the line then it would be fine for you to single me out, but I didn't even get close. You should just drop it at this point because you aren't going to change my view or opinions, so its pretty pointless to continue.



And directed toward the thread: I loved the vid, I didn't get to go to E3 (Or watch the stream) so its awesome to see what it was like.

@ Paradoxium Paradoxium a valuable lesson to learn in life is just because you have an opinion doesn't mean you absolutely need to say it completely uninvited, nobody cares and that's what tumblr blogs are for. now what was that about going back there?

also your original comment was put pretty damn rudely just fyi

Jesus, anytime we have a Milktea article, **** gets stirred up.

I wish people could not get offended and go trying to defend a person that probably doesn't even care about an "insult" of such minor magnitude.

You seriously think it's that big of a deal that someone commented about Milktea's hair color? Do you even think she would care herself? Why even bother with Paradoxium if you guys know he's wrong to begin with? Isn't better to not address an issue that doesn't need to be addressed? Defending Milktea out of spite because you think a silly comment about her looking better or worse with blond hair is pretty stupid.

I'm sure that if the genders were swapped, and someone, not even trash talking, just simply said, "M2K, why did you dye your hair black? Why?", you guys wouldn't even bother replying to them.
