Here's the emo blog everyone was waiting for.

posted to the public at 11:59 PM on Sunday Jun 24, 2012

I had a great time in socal. I got to meet so many people. Definitely one of the best trips I've ever had.

My placing wasn't nearly what I wanted/expected, and I got extremely unlucky in losers', but honestly I just have to get over it. I'm going to be training really hard from now on.

This was the 2nd worst tournament placing I had this year (1st being apex). All it means is that I have to work harder. GGs to MikeHAZE and Mr.R. You guys are extremely talented players and I'm looking forward to playing y'all again!

Although it was annoying to have like 60 people trash talking and screaming at me while playing in tournament, I understand the conditions of the situation (coast rivalry) and I'm not salty. I'm looking forward to returning to SoCal again.

Thank you to all of the people who made this trip amazing. Shoutouts to mike, lauren, tyrant, rich, mr r, shaya, shiro, silly kyle, sky, lycan, rickety, paper, ...too many to name. Ily all! ^^

See yall at SKTAR!

	Itakio wrote at 12:18 AM on Jun 25, 2012 : It makes me sick when people trash talk so hard, especially with the intention of affecting gameplay. Pretty dumb that in such a small community people still do that. People chanting "freebear" at G2 definitely gave me the worst feeling I've ever had at a tournament.

	Kimidori wrote at 12:45 AM on Jun 25, 2012 : "Ics beat snake" IC's - Snake is so debatable XD Exactly how do you think that matchup should be played in order for IC's to win then?

Meh, the match-up advice is always the same. The debate boils down to how easily you believe ICs can punish snake and how hard you believe it is to grab snake/force grabs on snake.

	Black-Chan wrote at 2:38 AM on Jun 25, 2012 : I actually wanted to see you come back in losers. You vs Tyrant/Rich/Mike in losers would have been tight.

	ANTi wrote at 2:41 AM on Jun 25, 2012 : LOL Nahh, I would go back but im just lazy. It's harder for an IC main to deal with ** talk than a MK main, since you can actually go auto-pilot with MK, ICs you have to be focused and the crowd can ** with your focus.

I swear I've heard the worst stuff out of any community from the Brawl community specifically, I remember being completely floored by some people at Apex cheering for Dark Pch. against Rain saying stuff like "kick their * like we did in WWII". When we dropped a **ing nuke on them then....SMH, what is wrong with some people?

	t0mmy wrote at 12:41 PM on Jul 3, 2012 : It is kind of odd to trashtalk people who pay so much to travel so far to play in someone's tournament. The comment about nuking Japan at Apex shows how far some people are overdoing trashtalk. And if it is done for the simple matter of trying to distract the competitor then that speaks for itself on level of both sportsmanship and skill of the region to feel the need to stoop that low to get an advantage. To paraphrase Sun Tzu: A good player will want the opponent at their best. An empty win is no win at all. But very good blog, you are inspiring to the rest of us competitors, and I wish you good luck and great success on your future endeavors!
