My No-Life Skills paid off!

Getting $20 like a boss! This may not be that important to you guys, but this guy with over 28k subscribers posted a challenge that only me and one other guy did and we got featured on his channel. I think it's threadworthy, anyway.

inb4 this isn't a blog
inb4 should have been a random thought

Feel free to post any experiences you've had where you've been featured or made money by gaming!

I do what I can (although Zaggy sorta helped too because he wanted to talk to an admin)

[Trogdor!!!!]

The only money I've ever won from gaming were Pokemon tournaments.

One time my uni hosted a League tournament and some friends and I absolutely swept it and won $30 rp cards each

To be fair though the people we were facing didn't ban amumu + kat until their second game facing us, heh

Smash boards? 64, melee, brawl, project M? Main?

I've won a free movie ticket for 2 last year for winning with a random other guy on Halo Reach. Yeah.

And I didn't even own the game at that time :V

How mediocre are we talking here?

[customstuff]

On a somewhat related note, I actually won my xbox (and Guitar Hero 3 which I sold for other games) by raising $700.15 for an animal shelter

like -10 ish on mercyful fate. It was the final song and I had to beat the guy on it twice cause I was in losers bracket LOL.
it's that 11min song from Guitar Hero Metallica. This was several years ago when that game was pretty new.

It was just some local tournaments. I played one Melee and one Brawl. I won the Melee but came third in Brawl since I didn't actually own the game at the time :/

That actually feels like such a long time ago. I think I'm gonna go play some Smash Bros. now

Oh my God that song with haunt me forever. I have at least 400+ plays on that song from me just trying to FC it. I had such bad habits and nerves with the part that starts around 1100 notes and just asdjflaksdjflaskdf. Once I got that I never played that game again and that was back in 2010.

[ReikonKeiri]

the funniest shit was the guy I beat (he got $500) went on to get like 99% on ttfaf lmao. gg

[Trogdor!!!!]

Holy shit lmao. Must have been an off day for him or something because MF is absolutely nothing compared to TTFAF. That's pretty awesome though. I never got to enter in any RB/GH tourneys because I could never find any.

[Arntonach]

I won 50$ for a simfile competition.

[rsr2]

That's awesome man!

I've won a wide variety of tournaments. Lots of local Super Smash Bros. Brawl tournaments (I use Wolf) and Call of Duty tournaments when we had a LAN center here. Altogether I've made over $1500 in cash and prizes plus a few trophies. I still travel to Smash tournaments once in a while but I am really bad at it now.
