1. Gotta give number one spot to Tylenul, his mechanicica ability and the ability to beat top

H5 pros imm multiple 2v2s! 2) Maybe Flazin? Again his all around H3 gamplaynisn crazy because I’d play against him and lose to him every single game in 2009. 3) Not sure he still plays but Deceting was incredible and made a great team with Flazin 5) Trippy was incredible considering him and Tylenul won all of the major online tournaments INCLUDING the Infinite and Tylenul doesn’t he play that goes to show to their teamwork and mechanical ability. But Trippy has a lot to prove this upcoming season. 6) Catastrophe/Preston, super nice guy and can hang with the best of them when it comes to h3. I teamed with him on blackout a long time ago againstn I think it was MIS5Y and this Smurf who was great and just a cool guy who really helped my decision making (During the OH 360’ days I played maybe a tenth of the amount my best friends played but was still significantly better. My first ranked game k went 25-0 in Lonewolves. But my passion was always for radar doubles and Preston would always talk if needed help. Anyways moving on but against that game against MIS5Y and this random really good alt account we won and I made one of the best plays of my life. Smipe Mis5Y one shot from top br, his bud is walking elbow Blain him but this is the wildest part I had no clue where aim for the triple so I took a random lighting smipe on br 2 and get it some how, I then decide to aim at bubble shield and sure enough dude spawns and I get my first ever 2v2 overkill Exterm and I then look elbow because my teammate is top red left and I snipe both of them but it was way too late.’ Anyways back to the list, just hard to share that. I shoud have sent it into puces.

Continuing: Obviously B11, I only knew him as Bullllllllly or whatever it was. He was widely considered the best doubles player in the game. I really the bungie.net servers remained because I also remember playing a team of two Asians on non booster accounts who had a recorded of like 418/425 and all the xp was is doubles.

I started this account called Local Blind Guy it had a near perfect record I only played solo and was only like level 40. Matched work this kid who I don’t know who it was but I wanna say Jumprs the 1v1 god. Together we beat a team who were attempting perfect record 50’s and they were very good. So I asked if he wanted to team for a bit and he asked for Microsoft points and claims he was the number one ranked 1v1 player turns out he was telling the truth. So he instead said I asked if can get 10 kills off host we would help. I ended up getting 14 because I don’t think he expected me to hit jumps like g1 to g2 on om both sides or s1 to s3 in like a matter of two Seconds. And I had some really unorthodox black screen snipes and strange angles. One was a I hit s1 to s3 back smaked him for full sniper. Then dropped down to S1, caught him going up g1 To g2 and sniped him. And instead of going for him instance spawn snipes i wouldn’t ever miss a camo and i had some weird snipe like from gay jump to elblow spawn and vice versa. The best one was I sniped him as he jumped from gold 2 to blue and intentionally left the barrels there. So then I went to grab lift to sniper and blacked screened him in the corner. Then took the lift and sniped him again while he did the bottom mid to top mid jump. Anyways he got a hold my sniper and finished me off but I told him it was my third ever one bs one and he was so impressed that he agreed to play doubles with me for free. But his GT was something like WILLBOOSTTO50 and I told him i didn’t want to get boosted so he said if I can get 10 kills this time on my host he said he would play on a main. I got 13 instead of 14 a lot more spawm snipes but a lot less camos. We then played for a couple of hours going from level 40 with only double so and snipers and Lonewolves for warm up to 47 but I decided I wanted to finish it myself and I’m glad I did. But I owe this guy a for making me A better player.

Cauty INFJ was one of the smartest players ive ever watched and think he should have made the switch to infinite if he enjoyed it. I once played with Cauty INFJ and distressed and it was on my three best maps can’t citadel, blackout, and beloebe it or mot epilogue and even ghost town. Id like to have the new tundra map put into doubles, it played well im h2.

But by far my favorite H3 doubles miracaal. I would love to play with him sometomem but I’ll Admit it’s been years.

I played against a very young bubu dubu amd shotzzy. It under different account Visor Shots. And to honest I found them insufferable but now Bubu Dubu is now one of my all time favorites. We played on epilogue my team mate was actually a eiropeojn pro Respectful which was strange cause i only play Central American. I spawned on smiper side quickly grabbed a long with bubble sheild, did the ghost jump and watched the other side. Bubu went for the shorty and regen at the time because we were baiting camo. I just hear two lifts and the exact same time, i snipe bubu in the visor and to my suprisr he spawns opposite side second floor and get the visor shot for the spawn kill. Shotzzy flanked me like a pro i thought he would throw the drainer at me while talking the lift. I was forced to use bubble but i then did a ghost jump that I think impressed him because I made him go the flag route and I got mew Smipe, new bubble to bait rockets amd fresh camo while my team got rejen and a shotty and used this to get a kill and even grab there new drainer. So I was hunting Shotzzy who had rockets finally I hear the grab lift shoot him and immediately deployed the bubble which killed him. He spawmed by their OS mad hit him in the visor before shotzzy could grab it. Sniped bubu on his attempt to grab sniper but had it timed. They both tried two outside flanks on opposite sides the problem was I was watching him inside did fancy no scope and just body shot bubu. They then range quit In explained how i haven’t had a 50 amd if they don’t like equipment play MLG. They asked had a man I told them as lomg as we have an account with a solid record we’re fine and that the better your record the harder it is to get an 50. All I cared about was doubles. I’d played slayer gone plus 25 and still lost. Amd personally 2v2 is the purest form skill expression halo.

Some 360 players include tredtz, Vipergts51, Domimator obviously, blacmkack, and iceman. Respectful I’d play with a lot even though he wad a UK bro.

Nowadays some up and comers are CyKul, LastShot, Prescicion, Wutum, and Mental. Curious to see who gets rookie of the year immn year 5.

I think deceitimg and Vetra decided to quit especially postola. They can easily make a top 3-5 team.

EDIT sorry grammar mistakes my Phoneme meedm Not Because my phone is broken and needs anyway don’t I’ll talk tomyngiudnlsyernovrtmcofrrrmofmomtrtesyed.

Asked him on stream and he shut the rumor down.

Sources:

• Mighty, Sica, Glory & TchiK are a TO4

• SLG, WuTum, Mose & Snipedrone are a TO4. Jimbo is expected to coach the roster.

☆ Things can still change, but this is the direction rosters are headed.

Howdy folks,

Got the new Wolverine v3. Curious on if anyone has it and what settings you run with the software and in game. Also what’s yalls thoughts on it. I like it for a lot of reasons, but when I play on my friends scuff feels buttery smooth with the sticks

Does anyone else remember when all matches distilled down to tnis. All disputes settled here?

Now that I think of it -- let me know if any of you want to throw down on some friendly Halo 2 classic 1v1s (Lockout, Middy, Warlock) -- I would be so down

Last season I solo queued my way to low Onyx, and the hardest rank to get out of was D4. I'm currently back in D4 trying to get out and I can tell you it is way harder than D5/6 and sometimes low Onyx. 90% of the players I've played with have the gunskill to move up. Its simply a lack of sitauonal awareness that holds everyone back. Team A could have a beautiful hold on C/B Live Fire strongholds. Yet Team B oftentimes can roll into C for a free cap because someone on Team A overextended into A. In D4, it's put your head down and sprint into Obj, then see guy shoot guy. So little thought goes into controlling a game. D4 players. most of you have the skill, just use your head!

Is it just me or does anyone else feel like their aiming and overall game feel changes after big updates? I’m finding myself tweaking my aim settings a lot after the update, and am wondering if there’s actually any substance to thinking updates affect aim/game feel

I know midship remake was introduced because of the halo 2 anniversary but I feel like zealot from reach would play better and feel better in infinite… thoughts?

After the Halo net code updates (a few months ago?) the strangest thing has happened: 17-20 ping servers feel horrible in ranked — similar to what 70 ping normally feels like.

Multiple headshots to 1-shot opponents don’t kill them.

So many blanks or hit registration issues in gun fights.

Players seem to have a quarter second advantage in 1v1: we’re both full shields, no one else is shooting at us, and they seemingly kill me in 3 bandit EVO shots instead of 5.

Players stutter or move in strange ways (not Gandhi hopping).

And sometimes the game starts with the server feeling great, then shots stop counting for multiple people on our team; or the game starts off feeling horrible, and gets better later in the match.

I was in the round 2 FFA game where the first Killtacular took place (some would say I helped start it). My GT was also misspelled, and the commentators fumbled the pronunciation 🤣 Weekend I'll never forget.

Help me understand ranking in. I used to rank in around Plat 2 and then end the season at Diamond 2. That’s how I thought it was suppose to be. You would rank in multiple levels under where you were suppose to be. The last couple of resets I would rank in at Plat 6, just below Diamond one and then by the end of the season be at Diamond 2 or 3. Am I missing something? Please explain. Tanks.

Ranked arena seems to have been taken out of the menu? Has this happend for anyone else and does anyone know why they have Done it?

Looks like they don't play on xbox, thoughts?

So Halo had a few states that have always run the scene.

Texas, Washington, Ohio, New Jersey, California, Florida etc.

But I was wondering -- who are some good players/pros or former pros you know from random states?

Does every state have some form of representation? I know no one from Mississippi or Louisiana that have been good. Maybe skill level and representation is in direct proportion to how crappy the highways are?

Anyone sick from the fly over states or Appalachia? What about Colorado?

Haven’t heard anything does anyone have any info on this

I found a Halo tournament hosted by a tournament organization I haven't heard of before. It looks like they have done stuff like Overwatch 2, but they just launched a Halo tournament. The Overwatch one was shoutcasted and had a prize pool and actually looked pretty well organized. They're accepting 8-16 teams and it says "Bronze-Onyx". Maybe we have a new org running Halo tournaments? The announcement is pretty recent too!

I got to thinking -- you always hear this talk about how old H2 pros played "plumbers" and were "less skilled" than modern halo pros.

If that is true then why didn't these guys fly down to Vegas and harvest that free cash. Surely it would have been easy for them to beat old Papa Walsh right? /s

Where do people still play Halo 2 online. I’d assume people play MCC but I just learned it’s a vista port and not the original version. Competitively is my main question. Just watched the lvl50 LAN and was curious what platform they use to still play. The broadcast kept mentioning a group called the Real Ones? Tried to look them up but there wasn’t much information. Thanks in advance.

Are there reasons we had basically 2-3 straight weeks of nonstop rostermania discussion and now it's just dead silent? Like was it all really because of 1-2 rumors? Just curious what has led to this silence now.

I play infinite daily and currently have a 1440p monitor that goes to 165 hz but can’t really utilize it. I’m looking at 4k 144hz monitors and was wondering if it’s really worth the upgrade? I mean my gut tells me it’s not that big of a difference but wanted to see if anyone else has made the jump? Let me know if thanks in advance
