Great evo overall. The finals with a couple of exceptions were all great and the reveals were exciting with the exception of the mvci anemic roster being further confirmed. My only real complaint was the sfv stream being 1-2 matches followed by 10 minutes of ads and sponsors.

Isn't Punk like 18 years old? That's a lot of time to grow and mature and learn to play on the big stage. He can only improve from here. Of course now that I said that he's gonna get knocked out in pools next year

Anyone that attended Evo wanna give me an estimate of how much they spent? Trying to plan out some tournaments to attend.

The biggest variable in your cost is always gonna be how many dudes are you splitting a hotel room with. I've done a double room with 12 people for 4 days before, came out to be like 80 bucks a person, it was nuts. On the other hand, I just went to Combo Breaker totally by myself and it was like 700 for the room!!!

Keegers posted:Anyone that attended Evo wanna give me an estimate of how much they spent? Trying to plan out some tournaments to attend. Like Trykt said, hotel and flight are the big moneys. Split hotel rooms if you can; even a double queen room split between two people with one per bed is way better than taking a single king by yourself, and 4 people to a double queen is very doable. Registration is also surprisingly expensive, especially if you enter a lot of games (don't enter a lot of games). For Evo in particular, but to a lesser degree for other tournaments, a car is a huge money saver if you can swing it, or have a friend who can drive you around. Not just because of rideshare fees but also because restaurants near places like the Vegas strip tend to be way more expensive. I saw a hell of a lot of tweets last weekend about people spending 20~30 dollars on loving sandwiches on the strip, while just a 15 minute drive away you could get awesome food for half that price. Going over my spendings for the weekend I spent about 400 for food and rides, but I splurged a bunch. If I was really trying to keep costs down I'd probably be able to get by with a quarter of that.

Okay thanks guys, I think I'ma go with attending multiple "cheaper" tournaments instead of just Evo.

Plus now that it's going to be in Japan, that's like two bucket lists in one. I'd love to go within the first four years before it becomes some super huge thing. Do what I did last year just save and save and make that your one trip you take and go have a blast. Me and two friends had a blast going. Just look at Circus Circus or Excalibur as they are the two cheapest hotels on the strip. Also Denny's is one of the cheapest places to eat, and buy your booze from Walgreens and just take it with you everywhere.

Captain Invictus posted:you should check out, at minimum, the SFV top 8, Marvel top 8, Guilty Gear top 8, and Smash 4 Grand Finals. Not sure about tekken, blazblue, kof, injustice, and others since I didn't watch those I read this advice and then watched Puyo Puyo Tetris top 8 instead I will check out SF5, GG and smash at some point, everyone keeps telling me SF5 is good now after evo

Definitely check out the KOF top 8. The matches were good, went at a great pace, and the sample of characters and countries represented was balanced imo Also check out puyo doubles too

It lost the player's choice slot to MvC3 so it wasn't there in any official capacity and I don't have my ear to the ground to know if there was a side tournament streamed.
