I remember buying the game and trying to figure out how to melee. It was such a shock to go from MM to NW. Of course, then the Reddit Brigade had a big MM melee tourney the next day, so I had to reacquaint myself with the fighting in that game.
I also remember 5arge's first Friday LB in NW, and how for the fun round it was partizani vs. rockets. Oh god the server lag. I would go upwards of 5 seconds with nothing happening on the screen. Glory.
