Some random thoughts about what is shaping up to be the best Age of Empires tournament this community has ever witnessed:
- What an amazing show Nili and the boys have put up for us again.
Everything seems perfectly planned: every transition, every overlay, every "dead" time between games.
You never know when the next surprise is about to come.
Please, whenever Escape has another big event, pay Nili some good money and let him be the main organizer.
- Everybody seems to be enjoying their time, which in turn makes us viewers enjoy the whole thing even more.
- It's true that today the combo Memb/Jordan absolutely stole the show, but we have also seen some great casting from Nili, Ornlu and Turkman. Very professional and never boring.
- In the last 4 tournament encounters between Mbl and Viper, Mbl has won 3 times (Legacy of the Huns; NAC1; NAC2) and Viper only once (Hidden Cup); Not only that, Mbl looked calm and collected throughout the whole thing. No signs of panic even in the most tense situations. If he manages to not get destroyed again by Lierrey, this could be his tournament.
- 11400 viewers watching live Mbl vs Viper in Nili's channel. No, that's no mistake thank you, it's really 2 zero's at the end.
Never thought I'd live long enough to see AoE reach an audience of this size.
- 10.000$ donation by Matt Salsa to top it all off. No, that's no mistake thank you, it's really a 1 with 4 zero's attached to it.
- This was only the 2nd day. There's 9 more to go.
- Give me more Nili.
