I'm really excited and nervous. Can anyone give me any tips? Like what talk about wise and maybe how to react after a brawl?

The tourney has a LGL?

Gay


Just have fun and learn
Being nervous is common, but you'll get over it the more tourney's you go to
I dont care if they ban planking but a LGL is kinda gay.

Okay.
I'll try to go to as many as I can. Not much tourneis in CT but they're starting a series at gamingetc so hopefully ill get over it after a couple.

Don't get disappointed if you lose early. It's only your first tournament. Also, it is recommended to not try your best in friendlies, as people could easily learn your real playstle and counter it.
Wish I could go to a real tournament. Too bad that will never happen. :p
Good luck!

Thanks and I'll try to sandbag in friendlies a little but not make it obvious I'm not trying. And who knows you may go to one soon blazer. You live in Cali and they're pretty common there.Thanks again!

Like was said, do friendlies. My first tourney, I didn't care if I'd win, I knew I wouldn't. Instead, I focused on meeting people and playing friendlies. So instead of winning (although I got tied for 5th and beat the winner), I met a few guys I still keep in contact with and dominated friendlies there, beating most people.

I'll never be able to to go to one lol until I move out or something, which won't happen for some time. My parents even dislike the fact that I play on wifi.
