no team used the Str8 Name. he Remade it and used HIS name. Ogre2 gave cap to VicX meaning VicX owns the name. just like T2 owns the Str8 name being the LAST captian of Str8.

Then why's everyone saying that Str8 Rippin has 2/4 back - e.g. Legit, Naded, T2, Ryan00b or whoever the kid is.
That's what I'm referring to why does T2 get to use Str8 Rippin when Ogre can't use Final Boss. That's all.

its a strange thing MLG has going on for Seeding and Stuff its so that people cant "Carry" teams to the top by placing rosterchanging like look at it this way FB went from 11th seed to 6th seed just by Roster Changing and then Changing their name.

I wont say best in the whole game, or that SQ got lucky, because SQ's win was hard work and skill. But i agree with the first statement. Where is all the BtH hype??? They'll fly under the radar and preform well once again.

I am just saying, if The Agency goes as Final Boss, I will have to become an Instinct fan. I love Victory X, Ninja, Totz, and FiS, but that is not Final Boss, and I am sure that they think that too. So I guess for the first time in my life I will be an Instinct fan...does anyone else have this same kind of moral conflict? It's about more than just the team name.

I just couldn't handle seeing Ogre 2 in an Instinct jersey...

I love the "final boss" name but in the end it is just a name. And I will not let it take away from the pool of talent that everyone else will see as the real Final Boss no matter the name they play under. Roybox 2gre and ola will rape no matter the name!!!!!!!

Not sure if Best Man is serious, but he just posted on both his Facebook fan page as well as his Twitter that he is a Free Agent now.

I would post source, but I saw the update on my phone and can't copy the links from Facebook or Twitter because they're blocked at work.

EDIT: SK just confirmed on his twitter that Heinz and Best Man are both free agents. Triggers Down is just SK/Hysteria for now.

GH057ayame might end up on tD with the way the teams are right now. Unless he plays through AM/ gets the 16th seed. In that case he should team with Karma and bring back Carbon. If Karma's not still playing then he should team with Walshy and bring it back.

I think Karma attended last event with a sponsor kid and KillerDrew and Perplexity unless that changed before Dallas and I didn't see it which is entirely possible. I hope he's still playing because the 06 carbon line-up is my favorite team of all time and 2/5 have retired already ( I count strongside that's why it's 2/5).

no drew had to start a new job during the event or something so karma decided not to go without him.

@ other people talking about my prediction, to clarify I wasnt trying to imply dynasty or warriors needed a change, I just figured bman and heinz almost had TD with elamite, and old pros have been known to team with up and comers for one event and then drop them, and heinx haz played on dyansty before and Ive been hearing alot about ghost maybe being dropped, I wasnt saying what I wanted to happen, it was just a prediction

lolz @ Nasti.

As for Karma, no he definitely did not attend Dallas. As for what team he is on now, and where he's at IDK I seriously hope he isn't w/ Drew, and Perplexity, and some random sponsor kid. And yes I was serious, I think that would be a pretty damn good Carbon, as I don't see many more team changes this season. Maybe SK for ToTz :D

No I wasn't taking offense to it, I'm simply saying it's one of those ToTz things, how everyone's hating on him because his k/d isn't mad +. Ghost is an amazing player, he's not a slayer, he's always been the smart player, who knows spawns, and plays strategies, and objective to the max. I think we all know he's much better than he's showing, and as such I have no idea why Snipe or any of the other players on Dynasty dropped Ghost, over Destin...and that's nothing against Destin. I just don't feel like they have good team chem but again I've not watched Dynasty a whole lot.

I personally would have liked to see a Destin for Demon D swap...but that's just my opinion. I don't truly know why Snipedown, and the team decided to drop Ghost, but that's all that Gandhi, Shockwave, and Puckett were talking about during the broadcast, was how off his DMR was, how - he went, etc. Sure they added in that he knows the spawns of Reach the best right now, and he's a mad obby player and strategist, but DMR isn't everything, nor is +/-. I can remember fondly plenty of games where Ghost, has won the series/round for Carbon back in 06 and 07 due to his objective gameplay, or his support in getting the 50th kill in a 49-49 game, etc. I'd really like to hear the reasoning behind dropping Ghost for Heinz but I'm sure we'll never hear the gist of it all?

The problem i see with ghost being the super smart player, super studied, great communicator, great strats, sick knowledge of the game, sick knowledge of spawns...yada yada...is so what?! He doesn't do jack with it.

Whats the point of being all those things IF you can't do anything with it? Whats the advantage of being able to predict a spawn if the guy can still outshoot you every time? !

All ghost has shown for like 2 years is that he'd make a great coach, maybe even a sick nasty super coach, but a coach none the less. He doesn't belong in the top anymore. He seems like a great guy, and nothing personal, but he brings nothing if he can't utlize all his smarts.

I also disagree, yes when two equally smart teams match up the better shooting will win, but if you play smart you very rarely get into 1v1's with both of you full shields and no team support

My friend has Formal on his list and he was playing with him the other night and he said that Formal was thinking about teaming with Demon D. So if that is true, and take this with a grain of salt, Formal is not on Soul anymore and Demon D is coming back. I will talk with my friend and see what the whole story is. Interesting scenario though.

He is a great support player. I can see him going just about anywhere and he would be able to fit in. He just needs to have some good slayers on his team and he will be fine. Not really sure if there is a spot like that available at this time though. Hopefully one opens up for him.

You Sir,
are the super retard of the century.


too me the difference between ghost and totz is that totz goes with the flow and tries to fit his style to teams, ghost does the opposite and tries to make the team play to his style, I think for ghost to suceed again he needs to find already similar playstyles so he can stop clashing with teammates in game.

Just in case you misunderstood me, because if you didn't I'm misunderstanding you >_>

I said that I would like to see Carbon for this season be - Walshy Karma Ghost SK originally, then I said maybe drop SK for ToTz. So the roster would be Walshy Karma Ghost ToTz :P As for the personalities, that's another reason I'm sticking Karma and Ghost together, they've played together, Walshy and Ghost are easily the smartest players on the circuit. Totz, and Karma well they're just pure awesome <3. No but seriously I would love to see Ghost, Karma, and Walshy get a Carbon squad back together.


As for Elamite, and Snipedown leaving Warriors/Dynasty for Str8, I don't think so...Elamite is comfy where he's at I do believe, they have a very sick team. Nothing against Str8, but I've never even heard of this Ryanoob kid, and I've watched MLG since Carbon formed. Maybe I missed out one year, when I ditched Gaylo 3, but...yeah. I'm not saying he's bad or anything of the sort, he's obviously on the team for a reason, I just don't think anyone can beat Warriors, they're hawt <3, and will be even hawter very soon.

Nothing against Str8, but I've never even heard of this Ryanoob kid, and I've watched MLG since Carbon formed. Maybe I missed out one year, when I ditched Gaylo 3, but...yeah. I'm not saying he's bad or anything of the sort, he's obviously on the team for a reason, I just don't think anyone can beat Warriors, they're hawt <3, and will be even hawter very soon.

And how do you come to that conclusion?

Who cares?

Impact got shitted on at the LAN. and got 2nd
DH raped everyone at the lan and got top 16.

Online doesn't matter, neither does TLN

I agree with you but BtH did great at the lan and took 3rd.
You just have to take any sort of practice that a team has before a tournament with a different view, look at Soul no lan practice and 5th place out of AM, best placing a AM team has ever gotten.

The simple fact you think Ghost lacks in individual skill, and that Walshy lacks in everything...

They're both only National Champions. Ghost has individual skill, sure he's not as on in Reach as he was in 2, and 3...but the games are very different, Bloom is fucking retarded. Walshy hasn't even played a Reach event yet. So they obviously have nothing going for them except at least 1 national per player. Oh, and not to mention Walshy was the strategist, and mastermind behind StK aka FB.

Also, ending the arguement Halo is not about individual skill, it is a team game. Individual skill has absolutely zero to do with playing Halo: Reach at an MLG LAN event.

If you honestly think individual skill has nothing to do with Reach, than you're an idiot.

Ghost lacks in individual skill, which is why he got dropped.
Walshy lacks in everything, which he why he can't even hop on a good team.
Karma has been a lost cause since 2009. He might as well retire, because its definitely over for him. Hes only damaging his own legacy.

How can you say that Walshy is bad at everything when he hasn't been to an event, or a LAN yet? We haven't seen him seriously compete yet, so that statement has basically no meaning at all.

Chillation on the flames guys...alot of us disagree often but we don't let it spiral into flaming.

Speaking of...I still say Ghost makes a great coach and a bad player. I think its fairly ridiculous to count on a players smarts to avoid 1 on 1 battles. Its going to happen, its going to happen on a regular basis. ANd you have to be able to handle your business or you become a liability to your team.

09 nationals 2nd place was a fluke. I know i'm going to get alot of heat for that, but many people agree that those 2 back to back 2nd place wins were wierd circumstances. I watched them, and i didn't see that it was because of classic's amazing skill, just the way things panned out.

But thats niether here nor there. THis is reach. BLaming things on the way the game plays, bloom etc, is ridiculous. This is the game, this is the way it is, and if the players can't play oto this new game then they shouldn't be playing.

I mean could you see ghost being interviewed "ya we would have won if this was halo 2/3". He'd be boo'd out of the venue.

As I said before, i like ghost, he seems like a cool guy. But he, as a player, brings his team down. in my humble opinion of course.

Edit: forgot to say, much love to those that disagreed with me without flaming my pants off. But doing so in the spririt of TLN. TLN FTW!

People overate IndivSkill. I mean SQ won on pure teamwork, Instinct won on pure teamwork, Carbon[09] placed top 3 consistently. Look at lets say BtH 2010. technically speaking they had three of the most Indivskilled players in Snipedown, Tizoxic, and Demon D, and Maniiac [When he goes off] yet they struggled all season. Players like Walshy, and Ghost bring so much to teams that aren't counted in stats. Like take Walsh
He's a morale booster [He instantly brings half the Mlg community to his side, when his team plays good]
Strats
He's helped players go from good to great, by getting them to kick their bad habits [EX Naded being a complete lone wolf who had his team work around them, teamwork to SS, and put Soviet in his comfort zone]

I mean Walshy, and Ghost bring tons to teams that their on, yes they don't always have the best stats. but for what they bring they can play slightly worse then their teammates. I for one thought Dynasty for a team that had NO Lan play, played extremely well, and whatever team picks Walshy up will instantly be better because of it

I really don't understand the logo either. What does trees have to do with the word instinct???
And I personally think Instinct was at its best was when Soviet and Walshy was on the team with Roy and Lunchbox in 2008.

Victory X and FIS can only hold the "fb" seed. Totz can't hold the "instinct" seed on his own. That is why the god squad has the 6th and The Agency has the 10th.

They need two original members to hold the seed, so as soon as T2 leaves for Str8 that seed is disbanded regardless of how the players got there, so the Agency would end up being seeded like 15th (or forced into the amateur bracket instead of holding seed 10 automatically.)

That's the jist I got over on the MLG forums when it was explained :) Still no official post on how it all works though... which is very disturbing.

MLG is so worried about there MLG names even though none of the orignal members who made those names are even apart of those teams beside ogre 2 and T2. carbon should be retired unless Shockwave, ghandi, ghost, or karma want to pick it up.

The problem is that Ogre 2 jumped from Final Boss 11th seed, to Instinct 6th seed and wanted to change the team name to Final Boss. In appearance it looks as if he simply hopped for a higher seed in play. It makes plenty of sense as to why MLG said no to the name change. Regardless of fan base. Rules are rules unfortunately.

But they havent ever done that when you moved up in seeds before, only when getting a lower seed. They said no to killerdrew because he was going from like the 8th seed to the 13th or something, but when T2 joined classic and renamed it str8 it was ok because he gained a higher seed. I agree rules are rules bu thr problem is there aren't any set rules, just the review process mlg does behind closed doors.

And most likely, Instinct will have the name FB and change it back or they will make a new name hopefully before Columbus.

BTW, do you think Ogre 2 would want to be on Instinct instead of Final Boss when he won the most tourneys and events more than any other pro while being on FB?
I don't think so.

04-19-2011, 02:19 PM
They have shown this rule to be a gray area with the team name changes, because of how Str8 was able to jack the classic seed. MLG has not been consistent with name changes, so why start now? OG2 should copyright the team name and the team's logo so MLG can't do what they want with it.

I'm almost positive that Classic was able to change their name to Str8 Rippin because Str8 Rippin had disbanded. Snip3down and Heinz were on BtH, Legit was on his break and T2 couldn't hold the seed on his own. Since they had 3/4 of Classic on the team, they got that seed and because the Str8 name was no longer attached to a seed (Heinz and SD were on BtH and so had that seed) they could change their name. In this case, the name Final Boss is attached to a seed beause Victory was captain and he and FiS stayed together. I think the whole thing is stupid personally.

And most likely, Instinct will have the name FB and change it back or they will make a new name hopefully before Columbus.

BTW, do you think Ogre 2 would want to be on Instinct instead of Final Boss when he won the most tourneys and events more than any other pro while being on FB?
I don't think so.
Actually Og2 doesn't care about the name lol, all he cares about is winning. Said so in his personal blog...the only reason he cares about the name is because of the fans/community. It's just a name to him even though it symbolizes a long running tradition or w/e

i don't understand why final boss can't change their name to the agency. darkest hour is changing it to str8 rippin, what's the difference? i can understand instinct's issue, but fb is in the same situation as str8, mlg should allow them to be the agency.

Because its more profitable for MLG to have 3 big names like Final Boos, Instinct and Str8 Rippin than to have 2 big names and Darkest Hour nothing against the Darkest Hour name.

Carbon, Triggers Down, Classic are all extremely popular teams Dynasty, and SQ are also building a large fan base
and if Invictus, and Impact play how they did in Dallas, then they're bound to become and well know teams. saying there are only three big names is extremely false. although I agree with your statement on the DH Str8 name change

I can see where the people saying apg is awesome are coming from, but Neighbor has shown himself to be a great main slayer in the past and in my opinion is one of the better players on the circuit with his new found ability to do things other than slay. He's building a Ogre2 or LBX level of ability and flexibility in my opinion, and in my mind Ogre2 or LBX are the best players on the circuit due to their well roundedness.

Plus if Cloud, Clutch, and Maniac picks up their consistency then I could easily see BtH winning CBus as long as they mesh,

Ok, well obviously APG > Ghost in slaying. Agreed we have not seen Walshy, but from some Bungie stats he's looking pretty beastly though XBL =/= LAN obviously. All I meant was that you can't go by stats as to who's the best player on the circuit...I also have to agree w/ Toomuch players like Neighbor, and Snipedown come to mind more than APG...and Cloud is just plain sick, also another player on the rise who I think will get picked onto a Top 6 team eventually has got to be argn aka areallygoodnoob.

SN: Even if APG were the best player/slayer on the circuit he's worth shit if he's not listening to teammates, etc. like one fellow TLN'er was saying in an earlier post.
