MLG Winter Championships 2013

Last fall I was able to attend my first MLG Championship! (Check my recap here) Well a few weeks ago I went to the MLG Winter Championships! It was held in Dallas at the Dallas Convention Center and featured StarCraft, Call of Duty, and League of Legends. Pro-gamers from all over the world competed for a TON of money in prizes. It was so cool to see some familiar faces and meet new friends! I have been trying to get better at League of Legends and hope to cosplay as Ashe someday. Here are a few pics from my MLG adventure.

I had to park my car kinda far away and while walking to the convention center I found a cemetery! Although super random I found it to be very cool :P





 




This was a free seat cushion SteelSeries was giving out.

MLG was sponsored by Dr Pepper and Flipz.. Which is awesome in my book! The white fudge is my favorite!

If you followed Dr Pepper Gaming on Twitter then you got this free bag. Nice!

I gave my Dr Pepper bag to my mom because she loves DP so I bought this MLG bag for only $10! And it's reversible!

On Friday I wore my MLG shirt that I bought last year.

These are my awesome friends doing League of Legends cosplays!





Phreak was one of the announcers for LoL and is a pro gamer.. He's a cool guy!


It was funny asking random guys if they would take my picture for me. (I go to most of these events alone and I gotta get pics somehow!) This guy did a good job getting me AND the sign :P


My outfit for Saturday was a Link tshirt and my new MLG bag.
  
I bought another gaming mousepad because one just isn't enough :P

And this one was so cool!

I had such a good time at MLG! I need to get better at these games so I can sign up as a competitor someday. If there was an EQ2 section I would pwn everyone! hahaha
