First time at a tournament.

alexmc

Hi guys. My names Alex, I went to Inferno 10 and had a great time. Lost badly in the first match by 0-2 in my group but did progressively better and won the last two matches against my group.

This is my first tournament and I have to say I am impressed at the skill level but even more impressed at the friendly atmosphere. I didn't feel like any egos were clashing.

I'll try to come by for casuals next wednesday or saturday if anyone else is going.

Hi Alex,

It's awesome to hear such good feedback.


Were you the Guile player?

Ramza

Hey Alex, I was not here today but thanks for the nice post. Always great to see new faces

The atmosphere is great, all the guys are there for a similar interest in FGs and to have a good time, everyone is very friendly

Casuals are on Wed and Fri and Sat. See you then!

Welcome aboard. Who were you playing/what group were you in.

Every tournament, my first match gives me an adrenaline match, my hands start shaking, and afterwards I'm left with shivers.

Feels good man.

Hey Alex! Are you the legendary Guile player that /starts vicious rumor caused cobelcog to throw his 360 pad at the wall?

Welcome to the scene


You a 360 player or PS3? Either way slap your online user name down in the playerlist thread and deffo head to our casuals and events whenever you can. Fair play for joining up on the forums.

Same here man, it was great wasn't it. Such a fantastic bunch of lads and a vibrant community. It makes travelling from Cork worth it in the end, and its great to see some top tier players battling it out. For me though, its all about having the craic and getting better, and the only way to get better is to get yourself to events like this and learn from the pressure of lag-free fights and watch the top seeded players fight.

Great event.

It was nearly all of us limerick lads first time going too and we cant wait to go back. Generic was saying his game improved alot and i was watching some of his matches and he looked alot more solid, same with myself.

animaX

Yeah thanks for coming along lads, the more players the better. Even though myself and others are in xgc every weekend, there's still an excitement and buzz about an inferno. And don't be shy about spreading the word to others!

@Robbknoll Your blanka deffo put up more of a fight the more rounds I fought you. Better spacing and poking game. You were unlucky with some wiffed ultras.

You know what I'm really worried about? That he's never seen Clarissa Explains It All.

Now that would be disturbing - in fact I believe it is the fifth sign of the Apocalypse.

Or sixth, I always get those mixed up.

K.O.Kiki

It's like finding out there are kids who've never seen Hey Arnold or Doug.

Or who don't know what Calvin and Hobbes is.

But everybody knows Calvin and Hobbes right? RIGHT?

Oh god I just had the thought of some skanger thinkings it's a dance act

chopperbyrne

I only found out what Calvin and Hobbes was very recently. Had zero exposure to it before then.

What about a 16th century theologian and a 17th century philosoper?
