All I know is I was playing with SQ the other day and we almost beat all 4 of Carbon on Sanct. TS despite my measly 4-10 with 1 assist and lack of set up help. You have no idea how bad I am. It was basically 3v4 and we only lost 50-47 after being tied at 46. I know one map doesn't determine how good a team is but it was our first map and I just wasn't that impressed. I really hope they prove me wrong because I love Walshy and I hope to see him stay in the top 8 at least for a long time. I just don't see it happening.

Neither do I, honestly Walshy had his glory days in H2, and that's about it. I haven't really seen him do much else. He was mediocre at H3, and I am not sure about Reach so far, but I can only wish him the best. I like him as a player.

I like Dynasty on paper, and Carbon has talent that people are sleeping on

Carbon was thrown together before roster lock. I don't think there is much hidden chemistry there.

The only one who was a last second throw in was scarvayne and he had already played a bit with Walshy and Russo. I think that if a team underestimates them then they will pull a few surprises.

Well technically the only one that was a last second pickup was Lifestyle and Russo and Scarvayne have a great amount of chemistry together, from LAN'ing at VGA, I wanna say weekly and teaming on DH for Dallas '10.

Carbon struggled against Dynasty
20-2
7-1
but that's online and HR is a really solid experience on LAN so the judging won't be held on them until they either LAN or at event
HOPEFULLY
They can amaze, and hopefully Walshy with these Young guns will help him dominate

I can appreciate that. I know in '09 when FB was at their worst, I spent every event hoping the same thing. It eventually happened so who knows. I wish you luck my friend. It's ok with me if they come in 2nd behind FB ;)
