Instinct beat an unpracticed FB, and quad-hosting while sitting next to each other in a 4v4 xbl tourney. its obvious you don't know what either quad-hosting means, the advantage of sitting next to each other, or xbl means.

SyA got 3-1'd by DH and all the games were close on Goofy's host on xbl. I wouldn't say that is getting wrecked, and they aren't out the tourney yet. They have loser's bracket for a reason...

btw. (in no order) I have DH, SyA, sQ, Warriors, and tD all placing ahead of Instinct at opener.

tD? Where did that come from?

I definitely still believe SYA is gonna place in the money, but after seeing Instinct play a bit, I'm not so sure about winning it.

The H3 pros are gaining ground fast...if SyA starts to slack at all they will be back where they were in H3.

I'm sure this kind of talk was made at the start of Halo 3. Probably stuff like "Snipedown is sick, but he'll probably be easily passed by the old H2 pros."

There will always be the new guys who come in an make it big. It's a bit ignorant to say that guys like Amish Acorns, Adrenaline, or Lethul have little chance of making it to the top. I mean, look at RyaNoob... he's not exactly a beast, but he's been a pro for half a season plus the off season.

Heinz is the best Reach player I've seen thus far.

I played Arkanum from Second Nature in MLG ealier this week, and if I remember correctly, he said that Fear left.

I played against Heinz, BestMan, Chig and APG not too long ago and Bestman was the best of them. He has a sick sniper. It will be weird having Walshy be on Heaven & Earth

Never said SyA wouldn't be huge in Reach. I said there are a number of Halo 3 pro teams that are starting to close the gap on what was recently a dominant Reach team. My goal of the post was to say that SyA needs to continue to work hard if they want to be an elite team that is winning consistent MLG tournaments, and that they should not develop a sense of comfortability simply because they got a big head start on the players who made it to the 2010 Halo 3 Championship. Sorry if my intentions were unclear, but as I read my original post, I am pretty sure it said exactly what I furthered in this reply. I just elaborated this time.

Wasn't meaning to sound so intense about it, I was just throwing in my opinion about it. But now that I know what you mean, I agree. SYA needs to work hard. And if they do put in their work, there should be less doubters.

Also, @everyone else talking about matching up in MM with some pros... you absolutely can not use those one or two games you play to judge a player. Best Man could go big in one game, but that doesn't mean Heinz who might've had the most assists that game is not as beastly as BMan.

The head start SyA had is disappearing fast. I think they will do well but they will not be winning the opener.
