Starts soon and will be watching csgo stream all day while packing.. Gonna be a good warmup tournament before esl.
 
Went to this event on the Sunday for the SC2 finals, was great to see/meet some of the players!...It still amazes me how awkward they look on stage when they have just won £20k... haha I'm pretty sure I'd strip off and dance or something!..


Also, didn't realise how popular CoD was. quite fun watching the games too in between the SC2 matches!

Great event though, could have done with a bit more "stuff to do" for in between games (stalls, PC's to play etc, only saw a couple)...Paying the price at work today! Didn't get home till gone 1am
