diK Posted February 9, 2012 Share Posted February 9, 2012 I'm just curious if you guys have ever gone to any major lan event that showcased CSS in their line up? I was going to go to the ESEA Lan Finals for season 10 invite but it's in Dallas Texas. I found a flight for $468 including hotel which I thought was really awesome since I live in Ohio but I'm not sure if it would be worth the trip other then seeing some old friends that live in Texas. What do you guys think? Is there another lan event I should hold off for that would be really worth the trip? I'm trying to do my part in helping out the esports scene and I figured I should probably start attending some of these lan events to watch some of the invite teams compete. The problem is I have to either travel out of the country or in the complete opposite part of the US. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Isaac Posted February 9, 2012 Share Posted February 9, 2012 I used to love going to this lan center, called "Game Lan". It was back in 02 or maybe 06. It was like the first time I seen people play WoW and counter strike source. I didn't quite understand Wow at the time so I called it gay. Anyways the lan center closed down in 06. It sucked so bad cause they, had like a "Wall of Shame" and you would write down players name that you pwned at the time. Was so fucking awesome.

There used to be a local lan competition that I entered in back when I was in high school for CSS. Ended up taking second place and only got a $50 gift card to best buy lol but the experience was unforgettable. If anybody here ever gets the chance to compete in any gaming tournament I can tell you it's something you won't forget. I've played all sorts of sports but nothing compares to the feeling of winning a clutch round in a CS match when there is a die hard CS fan base audience watching you. That tourny is soo small scale compared to what these invite players get to attend though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FEBRUARY Posted February 10, 2012 Share Posted February 10, 2012 If you want to go to a lan, go to ESEA S10 lan finals or go to ETS in Montreal. You'll see some of the best players in the Western Hemisphere at ETS. ETS starts March 16th though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
