Scattered Thoughts: MLG Anaheim
It’s surreal that two days have already passed since MLG finished and we’re only a couple of days away from CEO that will also feature the likes of Armada, Mango, Mew2King, and other top players. A random slew of thoughts is what defines this brief article.
Tournament Rules
1. Best of 5s change everything!
Poor aMSa
Ask aMSa. He was ahead 2-0 in 4 of his sets in his round robin pools, yet only had 1 set win to show for it. Someone needs to do a stat check, but aMSa may have the most wins ever for finishing in last for pools. Leffen also showed his amazing adaptation skills by coming from behind against Hax and Westballz. Best of 5s show a whole new layer of gameplay that would not be demonstrated in best of 3s sets. They need to stay.

Weekly Wrap Up (6/24/14)
Welcome to another weekly wrap up
MLG Anaheim (325 Singles Entrants) – 6/20/2014, Anaheim, CA
Esports Max interviews with Cloud 9 Mango
An exciting weekend of events that featured over 70 sets between the top 20 players. C9.Mango came out on top with his relentless Fox, using a mixture of strong shield-pressure and lasers. P4K EMP Armada went undefeated in pools, but could not muster enough to overcome Mango in finals. P4K EMP Mew2King showed some grit, beating PPMD for the first time in over 6 months and took Armada to game 5 before losing. Nonetheless, this is an exciting start to the summer of smash
Singles Results
