Xyro uses any chance he gets to take pot shots at people who are newer but infinitely better than him at this game. Welcome to the club Karen!

It's not hard to be better than a Samus. In fact, I'd worry if any of you lost to one.

I may consider joining. I've never actually been to a tournament before.

Edit: If I do end up entering can someone give me some tips because I've never been to a Smash tourney before.

Just ask and usually people will give you tips on what to improve. Don't be afraid to approach high-level players either; most are nice.

Just go there, be on time, bring money for entry+food+MMs (if you want), pay attention to your scheduled matches, read ruleset and most importantly HAVE FUN.

I don't know if this was a mistake, but in your post you said the tournament will happen at the Spring Branch meeting rooms at the Spring Branch Plaza. I did some researching and this is Spring Branch Plaza:

The actual place is located in Spring Shadows Plaza. Just thought I'd point it out.

If THAT^ is what you got out of my FB post then you might be missing a few cards in your deck, kid. Lol

Actually go read the "come
See ABCXYZ with Xyro "events and you will notice I do stuff like this. I make kids spill their guts out to me (fake or not ) to get a wimpy 20$ night. It's hilarious how creative they get.

It's already been mentioned 2 times.

I think TGC 5 has just been bumped up from its usual "regional" status to a "mini national" status. Due to the selfless acts of a fellow Houston Smash 4 player, Isaac Buks (tag: Haldrop), I am proud to announce that the best Rosalina player in the world (Dabuz) will be attending TGC 5 on December 5th 2015!

Houston smash 4 players, DO NOT MISS THIS CHANCE to play Ryo, Zenyou and now DABUZ at TGC. This is so awesome!!!!!!!

OHHHHHHH ****!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I think TGC 5 has just been bumped up from it's usual "regional status" to a "if I don't attend this tournament, what do I eat for breakfast .... ***** flakes??

Yes, yes... I know.. this is a LOT to take in. And some of you readers may even be asking yourself.. who exactly IS this enigmatic "Illmatic" character? Well, fear not, my friends. I know it has been quite some time since my glorious reign.. :058:

My long lost smash brothers are flying to Houston. I can't sit back hiding any longer. And because of that, instead of being boring and filling you all through a history class w/ this post.. I have quite a different, and dare I say "expected" route to take in declaring my return....



There is a light that never goes out... I haven't forgotten.. it's still within the darkest depths of my heart ;____;
The day your Up-Smash against me game three of Whobo 5 planted a vengeance of stitch-faced turnips in my soul. Turnips that now must be unearthed and rethrown.

Please bring full setups to TGC. This event will have over 150+ people

If you bring a full smash 4 setup you will not have to pay venue fee. This applies to all set-ups i use.

Hey Illmatic, does that mean you're going to money match me for a third time? I liked taking your money those first 2 times. ;)

Massive update on TGC 5! Please read!

Texas's largest Smash 4 tournament series, TGC, is having its 5th event (Dec 5th) and it is just 24 days away!

With a $1000 pot bonus split between 1vs1 and 2vs2 and the highest number of out-of-state players a TGC event has ever seen, TGC 5 is looking like it may hit 200+ entrants! Wow!!!

In terms of high level Tx skill, we have the normal: MegaFox, Trela, Wall, GrimTurtle, Karna, Denti, Gnes and more...

But as for out-of-state confirmed players? Behold!

1. Ryo (best Ike in USA
2. Zenyou (best/2nd best Mario in USA)
3. Dabuz (best Rosalina in USA)
4. Scizor (best link in USA)
5. SM (extremely good Cali Ike)
6. SECRET!
7. SECRET!

Having these powerhouse players come to TGC is a massive opportunity for all of us. This is our chance to get premium practice from the best of the best as well as show them what Texas is made of. Whether you are good or bad, top level or low level, PLEASE play these players and make them feel welcome is the best Smash 4 city in Texas! Just think, a mini national in your own state.

Also, due to this event exploding in a way i never saw coming. I am in great need of 2 things:

1. Full setups (WiiU/Tv/Smash 4). Any person who bring a full set-up to TGC 5 will not have to pay a venue fee. If you bring a partial set-up (WiiU+smash 4 but no TV or TV but no WiiU+smash 4) you will get half off venue fee. Guys/Girls, I seriously need your help with setups. No joke.

2. Volunteers. Once an event hits 150 or more players, time management and overall event control gets more difficult. If you wish to help report matches, stop friendlies, help setup/break down the venue or just be more involved with TO duties at TGC, please contact me ASAP.

Another topic is that of recording. TGC 5 will be recorded by yours truly.

If you have any questions or concerns or just wanna chat, message me.

To answer your question:

Yes. Anyone of any age is allowed to attend this event. Being 11 we would hope your parents would at least be nearby just in case anything silly were to happen. That or a legal guardian or someone that can just make sure you're ok.

Xyro is the local tournament hoster and the person who is your Tournament Organizer for this tournament. He's a good guy, you should talk to him if you do end up going to this tournament.

The "10 year old" they let run around is Onion. He plays Roy. You should money match him. :)

Hey, dude. Xyro here. I am the guy who runs Smash 4 at TGC.

If you need me to talk to your parents and kinda help ease their worries I will. I've talked to many parents over the years about this.

Also, in general, you will be able to do a lot more in life as a kid if you give your parents a "game plan." For example, TGC. Do some research about this event and present it to your parents so that they become educated about what TGC is and they can see that you are prepared as well.


Maybe make a list of the following:

Venue name
Venue address
Venue phone number
The host's name (Allan Sims)
The host's phone number (4096920697)
Directions to the event (yes print them out)
Day and time you need to be there

Oh also, take a friend AND invite your parents. Tell them they are welcome to come (I won't charge them fees) and see/talk to me. They can stay as long as they want.

If you do all of this^ you will prob be able to go.
