Its been years since I played this game but I participated in this little SCII tournament over 3 years ago. It was my first LAN and I had the time of my life. I actually managed to find the tournament info so I thought I'd share it.

I met a bunch of cool dudes at this event including Ketroc, Masa, fuzzy, and the guy whose btag was katyperry (sorry for not remembering).

I never even made it out of groups but still had a blast. It was my first LAN ever and I remember arriving there and everyone else had their own custom gear and I had been playing on my crappy laptop back then so I had to use the stock keyboard/mice they had. I'm pretty sure I lost the last game in my pvp match because I accidentally warped in a zealot at my own base instead of the forward pylon because I hit alt by accident (it panned the camera to my base).

In my 2nd game vs Masa, I did a fake expand into 3 gate robo all in on daybreak I think. I was so fucking nervous that I accidentally a-clicked my own immortal and killed it losing me that game -.-.

The biggest upset of the tournament was some random masters player nezi beating fuzzy (at the time a pretty well known GM). He ended up getting to the finals, losing only to Masa.

The best part was that the tournament was free to enter so basically I got to play at a net cafe for like a day for free XD. After most people were eliminated, a lot of us stayed around just to play ranked. We even got to observe the finals in game.

This was back when esports was no where as big as it is now and it was really cool to meet a bunch of people who also played the game.

Anyways I just randomly remembered about this and wanted to share. Thanks for reading.

I used to play a few LAN tournaments for Starcraft 2 locally but they stopped doing them for Starcraft 2. I enjoyed them and it was a lot of fun. I believe they stopped them because it was not that popular of a game and players started to not play anymore. It pretty much died off as the game did...
