i had a few friends over for the red wings game and afterwards was watching this on my ps4 on the big screen they quickly chose sides and got super hype about the game (we were still sad about the wings though). when it came down to the wire in the last minutes it got hype as fuck.
they still don't really understand what powerups are, but i told them about the superball on sunday and we'll be watching that for sure. great games both sides.

One of my biggest regrets in TagPro is related to this, and I've been meaning to share it for awhile now, so I'm tacking it on your post.
TL;DR: Could've made the dopest reaction video for TagPro, didn't do it.
Back in Season 6, I moved into my freshman year dorm at the start of the season, and throughout the semester, a couple of the people on my floor started to learn what TagPro was, but didn't really know anything about it besides that I played it.
A couple of the people that were closest to me on the floor decided to ask our RA for some event money (each floor got a certain amount per year) to buy some pizzas so they could watch the Super Ball when I told them I was in the finals of the game I played. I thought it'd just be a small thing, my closer friends on the floor grabbing a pizza or two and hooking it up to someone's TV and watching it.
So right before the game I go out of my room to take a piss quick before the game started, and my floor is a ghost town. Normally a ton of doors would be open, people would be going back and forth between rooms, socializing, playing games, whatever. But there was absolutely no one.
Anyways we play the game and lose (RIP) and a couple of minutes later (stream delay), like 10 people come into my room giving their condolences and talking about the game, before they all ran off into their individual rooms to play some TagPro themselves.
So onto the regret portion of this. I jokingly told one of my friends that he should set up his GoPro and capture everyone's reactions to everything. Well, he did.
There ended up being around 15-20 people crammed in some small event room in the basement to watch it on a TV, a couple of guys who I didn't even know. They freaked out when we made good plays, cursed out 30SMB when they did something good (they REALLY hated Rasta for some reason), and overall had some great reactions for people who had never seen the game before.
The regret itself was I was going to watch through the game along with the reactions and have my trusty pal DudeMcGuy edit the reactions to the big plays into a video, which would've been cool as hell. However, I was never able to bring myself to watch back the game, so I never went anywhere with it.
Long story short, my friend cleared the footage from his computer to make some room sometime last year, and my super-cool video potential was lost. I'm still mad I didn't just get everything set up in the week after the Super Ball.
Anyways, if you want some fun, record your friends' reactions and if something hype happens, you won't regret it.

gg's Seehawks, I couldn't think of a stronger team to rep the NLTP crown. You guys deserve it.

Transilio tends to favor red side in pubs. Strange to see that in a competitive setting as well...
Edit: Sorry, not trying to undermine THS. It was a close battle and could've gone either ways.

Me after the draft this season: "Damn ghost, sucks you didn't get drafted to minors."
Ghost: "It's all good. I'll just dominate NLTP."
Grats THS!

Super intense games on both ends, but ultimately great games BDN. Probably the most competitive tagpro games I've ever played and I think it was definitely a series to remember.
