The finale of the MLG qualifiers moves to New Jersey for a 5K event. Many players are in the hunt to earn a spot into the MLG Anaheim Finals. In addition, this will be the first time in nearly a year that Armada will be playing Melee in the United States. Other powerhouses, C9.Mang0, EG.PPMD (Dr. PeePee), and P4K EMP Mew2King will also be in attendance, so expect some really exciting matches between them. Along with Armada,  Reign.eSports Professor Pro will also make an appearance at SKTAR 3, playing in Melee singles along with some exciting exhibitions. From the west coast, Westballz, MIOM|SFAT, MMG|Shroomed, and several others will be traveling across the country to participate. Along with people traveling from out of the area, several east coast players such as CTRL|DJ Nintendo, CTRL|The Moon and APEX|Nintendude  will be hoping to defend their turf along with earning MLG Anaheim spots.

When I first came aboard MIOM back in December, I thought of this space as a small personal blog in which I could express my opinions about Smash related issues. Little did I know that we would grow into one of the most read blogs in the Melee community. With that being said, I’ve realized that the standards that I initially placed on myself earlier cannot be applied today. This is no longer a small niche blog and needs to have higher standards, both in content and grammar. I currently do not have the time to procure 4-5 articles per week along with editing them by myself, so I am looking to you guys in the community to help out.

I will need the following:

Okay okay, that wasn’t one of my better puns, forgive me.

After this past weekend, we’ve had 8 MLG Qualifiers and one more to go. Fortunately for those players that are qualifying via points, P4K Mew2King ended up winning Pat’s House 2. As a repeat champion, this opens up yet another slot for point qualifiers.

Recap

So far, we’ve had 5 unique champions out of the 8 events. These 5 players are:

1. P4K Mew2king
2. C9|Mang0
3. Curse.Hungrybox
4. Leffen
5. Remen

In addition, two players, EMP Armada (3000 pts), and VGBC| aMSa (2560pts), have accumulated enough points to earn a spot into the Final Bracket, pending some freak accident.

6. EMP Armada
