As we continue going through Team NINJA's Battle Royal tournament circuit, there will continue to be new players at each event. Ryan "Gootecks" Gutierrez released a video today going over his top five tips to those players who are looking to step over from the online world and into the offline world. It's an interesting list of tips, and from my personal experience I would agree with them being valuable. Have a watch when you get the chance.
Also, if you're looking for more tips and advice for your first tournament (or local meetup), be sure to check out @CyberEvil 's Tournament Newbie Help Thread and @J.D.E. 's "Why should I go to tournaments?" thread
