I'm sure getting exposed to a lot of ads. Did you know there's a gaming headset tailored specifically for the XBox One?!
I got that Dove ad like 3 times in a row

At least they have some neat music on when they're not playing ads.

I'm happy that Smash is getting some professional acknowledgement like Melee returning to MLG, but to be honest I don't really like it that much.

I don't like that the commentators have to check their language /cadence so much that everything they say becomes bland and corporate. I don't like the increased ad time. And I don't really like the... feel, the je ne sais quoi of these tournaments. It's too sterile. It's hard to put into words but I have such a fondness for the raw, self-made, gritty environment of the old days (get off my lawn).

I DO like that it's exposing more people to Smash and the professional stream quality we're getting, but I'll always miss that underground feel it used to have. But like I said, I'm happy for Smash, really.

Underground yelling, freedom with the intense hype that you can hear
vs.
The silent yelling, and knowing the stakes are high with the eyes of the world on you. The hype that you can feel.

I'm down with either one. Watching players duke it out and bet their pride and honor on either the big stage or on the rough stages of the underground will always send chills down my spine.



Just saying though, Remen shut some people up with his match versus PPMD damn

I would honestly rather watch the players shuffle onto stage and do bans than watch this MLG logo over and over

Sound levels in the MLG stream are pretty inconsistent.

Also holy crap did we just go ads to interviews to ads

aMSa was playing super janky and not moving the way he should. M2K's Falcon, on the other hand, was glorious.

I know I'm late to say this, but the loud dubstep that MLG plays between matches feels weird for Melee.
I guess I'm just used to streamers playing chill music/video game tracks.

I forgot to turn off tweeting with comments after using MLG's chat like a twitch chat. Never again.

That feature makes so little sense in a chatroom, I can't imagine it gets any use save for this exact situation, where people forget to disable it.

btw can we stop making "the sinister six" a thing

the reason the melee gods are called, well, the melee gods are because of their consistency. people can beat them, but those people don't win tournaments as often as the five gods do. leffen is the least consistent top player ever

I don't know how I feel about Esports Mango. He's so grown up now its weird.

We're never going to get gold like "Suck a **** brawl community, a big giant Joey ****" again (probably a good thing)

But he hasn't let out an "LMAAAOOOOOOOOOOO" for months. The Kid grew up.
