My Review of the Malaysian Invasion!

Yes I'm finally back from the crazy chalet and I'll post about the events of the past few days.

The first day started off with some DR warm-ups at Bugis and the near-disaster when they arrived late at their hostel the InnCrowd - they were supposed to reach at 12 noon but instead we reached there around 1:30pm because Pierre was so engrossed in the bloody WoW that he didn't print out the map!

Then we brought them to Tekka Mall foodcourt for the cheap chicken rice lunch :D and after that we proceeded on to CineLeisure for some good old arcade Tag action. I pretty much got raped by Pierre and Alter but I'm blaming the controls :P

The second day was the T5 DR tourney proper where I took part in Team HG together with Pierre and Alter. I think we were quite lucky sometimes throughout the whole tourney but it was really Pierre that carried Team HG to the finals.

Amazingly I had some unbelievable moments, such as wiping out the entire Fate B team by myself - for that match-up Pierre never got to play vs Fate B, it was all Alter & me. I still remember Pierre saying "Fuck this Azi I didn't even get to touch the controls, next set I'm going first!!" hahahaha :D

Then we went up against the bullshit 50/50 Team Evil3 which consisted of 2 bastard 50/50 Pauls and 1 stupid Bryan. Pierre and Alter were getting rocked by the gay roll~into~low/mid hit mixups that all SG bastard Pauls love to abuse but in the end we beasted through them and then went up against Team Chaos in the semi-finals.

Team Chaos was probably one of the more balanced teams which didn't require 1 member to carry them through the tourney. I think our match-up vs them was probably one of the better ones we had in terms of excitement.

Alter and I mostly got slaughtered by BlackMask or Naked, and I'm 100% sure that Alter now has nightmares about Law's db+4,4 move. Then Pierre was our fucking saviour and he raped all 3 Chaos members each set to take us to the finals. ( Kaz df+44 >> Steve df+1 )

In the finals we met Team Disc B but all the games were so bullshit rubbish that i won't bother to comment on them at all. Nevertheless, Team HG managed to secure 2nd place and we got some nice prizes courtesy of the UDT so it's not too bad.

I don't think we really bothered about the tourney though, most of the time we were just watching Jimmy beat down the Thai guy and we only went to play in the tourney when it was our turn, then we went back to watching Jimmy again after the matches.

The third day was the top tier chalet. Words can't even begin to describe the crazy batshit that happened in the chalet. The BBQ was rather a success in my opinion (simply because it wasn't a failure), all thanks to the great BBQ-ing skills of Noobkken! Without him I don't think we could have pulled off the BBQ properly. Also some credit must be given to Alter's tireless manipulation of the charcoal to spread the heat ;)

We started off with some cancerous sausages though we finally managed to produce normal ones as the night went on; then came the chicken mcnuggets, chicken wings and the phat chicken steaks later on, although I think we bought too much.

There was an uneasy tension in the air when Noobkken started to grill the Zerg-predator-aliens things and Pierre & Alter were visibly disgusted by the mere sight of them - QUOTE from Pierre: "OH WHAT THE FUCK ARE THOSE?!!" But eventually we stocked up on the foodstuff, busted out the drinks and had a good chat all round on Tekken and other ridiculous events.

Then we finally started the long-awaited TTT tourney. It was double elimination with 7 participants and 1 bye. I will not go into the details of the tourney because I'll be making a page to host the vids and I'll include the tourney brackets on it.

But I can announce the placings: 1st - Darkstep; 2nd - Tugga; 3rd - Nik. I think the real highlight of the tourney was NOT the gameplay but the fucked-up commentary behind :D

Then we played 2v2 team games using the multi-tap. It was utterly hilarious shit as there were all sorts of stupid things happening with the cheap gameplay, random tag-ins and amazing setups. We rounded the night off with the rubbish Saw 2 movie before knocking out at around 4:30am.

It was fucking great fun having Pierre and Alter around for this weekend and I don't think mere words can express the total experience we had over the 3 days so I'm going to end the blog entry here.

PS: I hope you guys can come down again at the same time as Catty or Des because that will be the fucking BOMB!

Predators frickin rock. Multitap tag is too good! Azi is a dodger (wtf). I wonder if the commentaries will end up spread all over the internet. If it does my best friend might not like me any more. That would make me sad. =(

And jimmy toyed with our emotions. =(

Jac didn't stay long enough. =(

So much angst!

It was utter good shit, dammit come down with the cat or the des, we'll host you guys again!

Yeah hopefully we can get the vids uploaded within the week, the commentary is seriously going to be so broken on the ears. But of course the gameplay roxx hard as well :D

It was quite nice and unexpected of Jac to drop by us lol

alkanphel said...

Yes man Des...we can't wait for you to come!! I don't know what's left of your teacher image to preserve anymore hahaha :D

noobkken said...

Damn.. teachers suck! ;-)

Hosting is definitely provided (well for a night is fine, too many and i'll be truly broke(n)lol)

This time we need to plan better, and hopefully i don't have to be away so much. 4 player tag is toooooo good.
