Nah, they dropped all of them when they remade the game and nothing new's been discovered yet to my knowledge.

Halo went through very rough times after 2011 when MLG dropped Halo off the circuit for CoD Black Ops 1 when Halo reach was being played and only 30+ teams out of a normal 256 showed up to the national championships in Providence.
Halo had always been nutured and handled by MLG so as such when MLG dropped halo the community didn't know where to go or what to do cause it had never had to do anything on their own, MLG would always handle the events and build the scene. Halo 4 released and for the year it was terrible as well, we had AGL(Arena Gaming League) around for a couple Halo 4 tournaments but then they turned their back on the community and ran out with peoples money and disappeared.
When the Master Chief Collection came out 343/Microsoft decided to be like other developers and fully support their game so they now run and fund the HCS(Halo Championship Series) and every event the viewership gets bigger and every year the money gets better. Halo has seena resurgence and it's nice that companies like Evil Genuises, Cloud 9, Denial, Elevate, Optic, CLG and now Liquid are investing in the scene. That says alot and I see great things happening in the future.

Also ElamiteWarrior was a top 6 placing Halo 2 pro from 05'-06', Halo 3 National Championship Winner 2008 on Str8 Rippin and top 2 placing for the rest of 09'-10' for the remainder of Halo3.
Halo on the come up!!! woot woot -__-

What are the prerquisites (besides killing the other team) to win a Halo pro-game? Like CS - bomb, SC - destroy buildings etc.


usually (and this is based of off halo 3/ reach/ halo 4). there's:

team slayer (self explanatory to 50 kills. usually and more open maps early halo 3 they did it on maps with more set ups and one team would get like a 10 kill lead then the other team would wait for power ups/rockets and try to break and if the failed they'd just wait again, got very boring. )

ctf (3 or 5 caps to score depending on map, own flag needs to be in to score, froget how flag reset works but I think its touch on small maps and timer on larger ones.)

oddball, (basically a skull that you have to have someone on your team hold andyou get points while they do. goes to 250 points, forget points per second, usually the most based around set ups). a popular strategy is holding it until you die in a position where it falls of the map on death so it resets)

and king of the hill ( one hill that rotates between I think 3 locations and you try to hold it.)

game usually revolves around power weapons like snipers and rockets (think shotgun in halo 2 was one also) which have timed respawns as well as overshield (think its like 3x normal shield, and camo which are also on timers, somewhere I have the respawn timers for halo 3 but since they're probably diferent now its not worth posting). everyone generally has the same weapon (dmr or Battle rifle.) 2 grenades on spawn, grenades are your bread and butter for quickly killing people.

flags and oddballs do normal damage on melee's

they could have changed it since then though


If your more interested pm me or something and I can explain it in more detail (although to be fair I'm slightly out of the loop)


Also assault (neutral bomb) - bomb spawns in middle of the map, either team can take it and arm it in their opponent's base. Bomb carrier moves more slowly, once you take it into the base there's a circle you have to stand in, after about 5 seconds of holding the bomb there the bomb is armed, it explodes, and after a few seconds the bomb respawns in the middle of the map. First team to 3 wins.

thanks for the reminder. I remembered it a bit but couldn't remember if they had dropped it or not as a competitive game type so I left it out.

I think what hurt the game a bit was bungie leaving after reach so once they released the game they didn't have a ton of motivation to update and patch it as soon as possible. plus sprint was weird and gun spread was weird. also the maps weren't really that good. (also matchmaking was an abomination that somehow ranked 4 individual people with like a 4 man team of semi pros)

welcome aboard. good luck. I'm probably going to start watching again now that I have a team to cheer for. I'd ask if you take friend requests but your lists probably full.

also if you stream and need a moderator I'm available.

(in all seriousness though great to have you aboard)

I haven't followed halo since Halo 3. Which halo game are these guys playing, 4 or 5? (I think there's five out now?)
I root for Euro Zergs, NA Protoss* and Korean Terrans. (Any North American who has beat a Korean Pro as Protoss counts as NA Toss)

Halo 2 Anniversary, it's part of the Master Chief Collection. Halo 5 will come out later this year.

Been watching Ninja's stream and he is quite the character. He's very engaging and talkative.
