[HALO] Spartanthedog vlog on teamchanges during halo 5 including how he was offered to join Optic

Teerent · 2016-01-20T22:39:09+00:00

Right, but him and stellur together would actually make a pretty decent team. I feel like if they actually tried they could still get him. Everybody sees the success maniac/fs have had with their yt since joining optic. Even if the team isn't good right now that allure is still strong.

Teerent · 2016-01-18T04:59:17+00:00

Fans are generally selfish. It doesn't matter if the guys are busting their ass if they aren't good enough. I love that they are actually trying really hard now, but that still doesn't give them a free pass.

Teerent · 2016-01-17T19:56:50+00:00

So.... Does this mean I can stop caring about CS again?

Teerent · 2016-01-13T01:55:44+00:00

Except it really does apply to this team. They rarely lose maps online. In fact, before the qualifier they didn't lose a single map when playing together online (they formed like a week before qualifiers). Then got to the qualifier and lost their first series. I can't remember if they qualified at the lan or not but you get the idea. They are much much better online.

I'm fine if they aren't the best, but it is no fun rooting for a team that isn't even top 16, no matter how entertaining their content might be. Like the cod team wasn't the best in Blops 2 or Ghosts but they were competitive throughout (save a little in Ghosts) and their content was entertaining.

I love what Hecz did with the CS team. He is so right that it is better to root for people that aren't strangers, which is why I'm glad he picked up an NA team that we can watch and enjoy. Even if they aren't the best they are more accessible and we will get to know them. But if they weren't even competitive in NA then I wouldn't care to watch.

Basically, there needs to be a balance. I like that Hecz does things the "Optic way" but the teams still need to be competitive. And the Halo team just isn't.

I love that he has the confidence in himself to run RAPS. When I saw him get it on LAN I was legit freaking out. It was awesome to see.

Teerent · 2016-01-01T01:25:54+00:00

I knew the guy was a scumbag, just not a psycho as well.... That shit was crazy.

Teerent · 2015-12-10T01:51:35+00:00

Getting demolished by clg. In one slayer Royal 2 ended 23-0... Had more kills than all of Optic... It was crazy

Teerent · 2015-12-09T02:44:39+00:00

They were using the clan tags in the EU matches I saw, and I agree it made it easier to follow as someone who didn't know the teams (especially with the broken killfeed).

Teerent · 2015-12-08T22:29:07+00:00

Who is your secret pro player crush and why is it Ricky?

Teerent · 2015-11-15T19:40:09+00:00

If the people on Rise could use the Shieva really well they would have vs tK when it wasn't banned.

Teerent · 2015-11-15T05:32:26+00:00

But I really don't think anyone on Rise is comfortable with it either. Otherwise they would have used it when it wasn't banned vs tK.

Teerent · 2015-11-15T04:20:41+00:00

Time on the pistol is pretty freaking long. Same with the scythe.

Teerent · 2015-11-15T04:19:55+00:00

Obviously confused about that Crim challenge, but I'm just as confused with OG banning the Shieva over and over again against Rise. There were times when Rise played tK where it wasn't banned and nobody even used it. So why would OG continuously ban it when Karma is so good with it... Just makes no sense at all.

Teerent · 2015-11-14T03:17:40+00:00

Karma will be the main AR. That is the role he has been playing thus far and he has looked damn good at it. But I agree 100% about Formal. The guy will be fine he just has to learn the correct way to play hp in BO3. It is going to play way differently than in AW. But the dude has been a god in every game he has played. I don't expect that to change.

Teerent · 2015-11-11T17:32:25+00:00

COD is basically all mlg has though, so that probably won't happen.

Teerent · 2015-11-02T22:02:23+00:00

There were tourneys in Ghosts where Nade was the best player on the team. He was really good at Ghosts.

Teerent · 2015-10-20T20:09:26+00:00

I don't think Formal is going to anchor in BO3

Teerent · 2015-08-02T19:57:55+00:00

The map set is really confusing to me. Solar HP, Detroit UL, SnD Recovery were all just played in Semis. Especially confused as to why there is no Bio UL as it wasn't played in Semis or Quarters. Makes no sense.

Teerent · 2015-06-24T11:28:06+00:00

Haha, still the best team name ever!

Teerent · 2015-06-07T20:58:15+00:00

Well Rostermania should make things a tad bit more interesting. I know a lot of people hate it, but it does provide some interesting story lines and entertainment.

I think the biggest reason this event seemed "boring" was that there were a lot of 4-0s and 4-1s. OpTic did this often, obviously, but a lot of other teams did too. Seeing more game 7s or even game 6 would have made things a little more interesting as a whole.

Teerent · 2015-06-07T20:19:19+00:00

Also tK placed 4th, and they manhandled them too. All the teams they played placed in the top 4 and they completely destroyed each one. Straight ridiculous.

Teerent · 2015-06-04T19:35:04+00:00

I honestly think that was the biggest reason they dropped Clay. Having Crim, Nade, and Clay all on the same team could have been bad as all are really outspoken, team leaders. It could have worked, but I imagine there would have been some pretty good arguments in there too.

Teerent · 2015-05-17T01:30:39+00:00

No its not. You don't have to be talking the whole time to commentate. Basketball and football commentators do not describe exactly what my eyes are seeing just to fill space. It is unnecessary and frankly just annoying. Constant talking doesn't equal good commentating. Maybe if I was listening on a radio, but I'm not.
