Check Six gaming has added Life's a Glitch Member Maximimus Black to the team.

Announcement Video -


Website -
http://check6gaming.com/

NOTE: The link above has been broken for the past 20 mins - all off Jeff Johnson's fans have actually caused the site to crash!

I think that this is amazing for Maximus and overall great for the community!

P.S. - Haters gunna hate

Roon.565 =D

*Also, if you haven't checked him out, please do so - he makes for some enjoyable casting and hes a funny guy.

from what I understand MaximusBlack plays games full time now, streaming and uploading to youtube. Novawar has a job and does the youtube thing on the side. I also don't think Novawar is at the same skill level as MaximusBlack.
blah blah blah...

NovaWar doesn't play Starcraft2 much - plus he has a job that he went to a University for 4 years for, so i'm sure that he's happy with that.

Maximus Black in the above video stated that he wasn't going to leave novawar behind or anything like that - fans come first!!

No offense to you I am just really confused at this point in time, I thought CheckSix disbanded? I guess I am mistakening it for another team, I've never heard of you but nonetheless Goodluck!

EDIT : I can't go to the checksix website, it says 403 forbidden :O

I assume this is for a caster position, but why when you already have HD and Painuser?

Checksix is still alive and kickin they recently signed MajoR, its check six not sixjax - also, he will be commentating and playing for the team, they see something in him and PainUser and HD are busy with IPL too!!

i believe jeff is mainly their media manager from what i gathered, he'll probably end up handling all their youtube and event coverage, and then if by practicing with check six he does well he might become an actual player focus.

basically, they are giving him a chance for possible potential (which i really dont see) and are going to use the skills he does have in the mean time. I'm happy for him, and he would work great as a media manager even if he ends up giving the chance for being a pro gamer.

Im happy for Maximus i love his videos, but I don't think he is at the same skill level as some of the other players on that team. I mean he recently hit masters and he can't be playing the top tier players just yet, I see him more as a media and someone who will bring more focus onto the team

Well congrats to all, but this pretty much solidifies my view of x6 being more of an entertainment team with the signing of both Maximus and Ailuj.

Good for him! I really enjoyed his playthrough of I Want to Be the Guy. And his casting of Sumotori Dreams computer vs. computer matches were hilarious.

I don't understand. Maximus Black is not that good at playing video games. Just check out their "let's play RE 5" videos.......or playing BF3 like it's CoD......

I've love to be proven wrong, but I'm not so sure MaximusBlack has the necessary skill to compete with the likes of everyone else on the team. Regardless, it adds to the team on other ways, so I wish both of them the best. I love LAGTV and watch it all the time as well, so gl and congrats to xSix and MaximusBlack!

Gratz for him though, love the work he does
