I won't type individual shoutouts for everyone, but I do have some funny stuff I want to share.
First, tho, thanks again to bloodpeach and cobr for housing me and picking me up/dropping me off at the greyhound stations. Thanks a bunch guys <333
THINGS I LEARNED AT COA:
-Kero IRL was a bit of a letdown LOL. Not as nuts as he makes himself appear online. However, Stranded was exactly the person I expected him to be, and he pestered me for like an hour for me to take a picture with him holding up gang signs. Needles to say, I caved. gg Stranded.
-As far as I know, Boom will refer to me as Mixa for the rest of my life.
-According to Killer, everybody knows his mom ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°).
-Drunk Shears is 10x better than regular Shears. Here are a couple of Drunk Shears quotes from the car ride on the way to Rob's:
--- "WOW, what an amazing marth waveshine combo....... **** ME, PLEASE!!"
---"Bloodpeach, you have to take a right on 'x' road, right around the orange area (referring to the orange-colored highway on google maps that only HE could see on his phone)"
(2 minutes later)
Bloodpeach: where to now, shears?
Shears: Zzzzzzz
Bloodpeach: ****
--- "Stranded, I AM a drunk."
I'm probably forgetting a bunch of stuff, but you get the gist of it.
Aside from that, playing in my first tournament was fun. I hadn't played on console since May or so, so I was missing z cancels and stuff back at bloodpeach's. I couldn't dash--> up smash or shdl well for some reason, so I decided to not go for that in tournament and resorted to being really lame lol. I'll practice on console for a couple of days before my next tournament for sure.
I played madrush first. he rekt me during the first game, and then i went for the cheese 'laser, grab, gimp' so I was able to win the set. Really nice guy and I'm glad I got to play him first. Then I had to play against Kero, and he was nice enough to agree to play fox dittos on hyrule. I got completely destroyed, but the second game was kinda close. Kero is really fun to play against.
Then I played smellycat in losers, who was sandbagging with samus and using an n64 controller. I lasered the **** out of him and won the set. He complained about the lasers a lot xD. He was really nice too. After that cobr, 3 stocked me twice and that was it lmao. Cobr is always really fun to play online, so getting to play him on console was fun.
I played some friendlies with some people during the tournament (stranded, clubba, sk, fireblaster, maliki, bloodpeach) and played with bloodpeach and sk a bunch on friday. Unfortunately, I wasn't able to play with jimmyjoe for whatever dumbass reason. I guess I was watching tournament matches the whole time and didn't play friendlies that much after I was eliminated, but meeting him was nice. Really nice dude. Didn't get to play ceasar either, but his sets were sick.
I've never really cared much about competing or getting really good at the game just for the sake of it, but this has really pushed me to try a bit harder to get better, so I'll be working on that.
Overall, this was a great weekend (except for the 13h bus rides lol). I'll definitely try to go to the NE several times a year for tournaments even if theyre just locals because I had a lot of fun.
Thanks!
