vVv’s First Halo teams

If you have read Apollo’s interview with vVv Gaming’s Lord Jerith, founder and owner of vVv Gaming, you know who and what they are about, and a few things kept them from picking up a Halo team. But you read right. They have!

If you have not heard or researched exactly what they are about and maybe thinking, “Aren’t they just another one of those Gears of War Sponsors?”

I want to let you know that they are not just some Gears sponsor, but much more.

Let me start off with a few words from Lord Jerith himself, “vVv Gaming emerged onto the competitive circuit in 2007 with its explosive Gears of War team, vVv Vision.”

With a start like this they seemed to help set a standard for Gears of War players from there on out. vVv is one of the most sought out sponsors for all games on the MLG circuit. They really only ever stayed with Gears because of MLG’s infamous “Rule #8.”

This rules states; “Players and Coaches may not appear on a Main Stage Station with sponsor insignia that is not approved by MLG or conflicts with MLG sponsors.  Players and Coaches may be asked to wear MLG apparel during Main Stage activity.”

This rule really only conflicts with Halo 3 teams on a regular basis, but if anyone goes on main stage they need to follow this rule.

Along with Gears of War they also sponsor a wide range of players and teams from all different games. Feel free to check out their site at www.vvv-gaming.com. With gears and all other games included in the sponsorship line up, vVv Gaming is now sponsoring the Halo 3 teams, Take Respect and Afternoon Delight.

On vVv’s site, Take Respect has their own team page and there is no site of one for Afternoon Delight, but when I attended MLG Orlando 2010 this past weekend, I saw Afternoon Delight sporting vVv t-shirts and colors.

With these two teams scoring vVv sponsorships and earning the right to represent vVv Gaming, I would like to wish both Take Respect and Afternoon Delight the best of luck. Expect an interview with Take Respect coming soon!

Roster Swap…..again

*Sigh* Alright, after the musical rosters of the aftermath of Orlando we are once again going through more roster changes. Our sources have confirmed that Ghostayme has left Haven and Earth to join Carbon. Now you are asking. If Ghost is there, who’s off Carbon? And the answer my friends, is Strongside. Strongside is now looking for a team.

Carbon is not the only team that has gone through roster changes. Triggers Down has kicked Hysteria, and he is now also looking for a team.

The New Rosters-
Carbon: Ghost, Walshy, Defy, Bestman
HaE: Drew, Karma, Anarchy, ??
TD: SK, Neighbor, Pistola, ??

Will these teams last? Will we see another roster change soon? Only time will tell..Though i don’t think this will be the last move before April’s Orlando event.

New Final Boss

It was recently announced that FearItSelf and Totz are the new members of Final Boss. This is now the second time FB picked up FearItSelf. Who knows, with Totz’ young talent being brought to Final Boss, maybe this is the change Totz needs to final get his first tournament win. This may also be the line up that Final Boss needs to get a tournament win and climb back on top. What do you think? Are Totz and FearItSelf good additions to Final Boss? Will Final Boss help Totz get his first tournament win? All this questions are soon to be answered with the 2010 season fast approaching. Until then, you decide! Check back soon for more musical rosters… I mean roster CHANGES, coming soon!

New Instinct

Str8 Rippin has been talking about changes amongst themselves over the last week and they decided to take more time to think about the situation.  It has just been confirmed that the move has been made and that Elamite Warrior is the newest member of team Instinct and Heinz will be joining Str8 Rippin.

The new squads will be:

Str8 Rippin: Tsquared, Legit, Snipedown & Heinz

Instinct: Roy, Lunchbox, Cloud & Elamite Warrior

The other roster changes that have been confirmed are as follows:

BtH: Demon D, Maniiac, Chig, Tizoxic

Status Quo: Flamesword, Ace, Enable, A Pure Gangster

Heaven and Earth: Killerdrew, Karma, Capt. Anarchy, Ghostayame

We’ll have more insight coming soon!!!!

“Slayer Swap” roster updates 1/18/10

First, let’s bring a little more clarity to the Heinz transaction.  From what I’ve been told the reason Heinz was dropped was  because there was some uncertainty surrounding his future in halo and with tD.  They wanted to secure their future, so they asked him to be clear and he told them he had been contacted by multiple teams. With this and the fact that Hysteria and sK both have shown interest previously in teaming with Neighbor since they all live locally.  This is the side that I have been told, we’ll see if there are any other stories from those involoved.

Let’s look at Carbon now.  With Shockwave’s retirement Carbon started thinking and decided to make some changes.  They dropped Naded and picked up Strongside and Best Man.  As most know Defy and Best Man are close friends as are Strongside and Walshy.  It remains to be seen how they will mesh, but it does have potential.

In other news, Status Quo is now only Ace and Flamesword.  As many of you know Legend left Status Quo shortly after the tournaments was over in Orlando.  Now, Totz has stated that he is a free agent as well.  We will probably see SQ go after one or more of the up and coming young pros.  Possibly APG or someone like that.

Stay tuned we have more big news coming …. I Promise!!

Roster Moves Round 1

So as many of us expected, there is starting to be a bit of a shake up in the rosters for some of the top teams in Halo.  Let’s address two that have been very prominent first.

tD Neighbor, yes this is true. Triggers Down dropped Richie Heinz (Heinz) to pick up Mason Cobb (Neighbor). Neighbor was very outspoken about becoming a free agent even before leaving Orlando.  It was a group decision for Neighbor to leave Instinct.  The twins were ready to move on and Mason wanted a change as well.  So, what almost happened before last season, finally happens now.  With sK, Neighbor and Hysteria all living in Washington it was just a matter of time before these three decided to team.  This puts three of the best slayers in the game (Pistola, Hysteria, Neighbor) on the same team with probably the most underrated captain in the league in sK.   Assuming they mesh well, and they should, one begins to wonder if this might have been the little push tD needed to solidify that top spot.

Chris Smith, aka Shockwav3, who has been around the world of Major League Gaming and Halo for years now, announced his retirement for Major League Gaming.  This comes as a surprise to many especially after Carbon’s strong finish to the season.  Chris has been a model of consistency in Halo.  From his commitment to his teammates on Carbon to his always solid gameplay.  He had provided us with many memories, both serious and funny.  No one will forget his hilarious toss of the flag off bottom mid on Narrows, nor will we forget that he led the only team to knock final boss off of their throne at the National Championships in Halo 2.   Make no mistake the game of Halo and Major League Gaming will miss Chris Smith.  Shockwav3, it’s been great watch and cheering you on.  Best of luck in all your endeavors we’ll miss you.

So, now what?  Will Walshy retire as well?  Where will Heinz land?  Will Str8 make a change as well?  We’ll have these and more answers coming soon!

New Heaven and Earth roster

Our sources here at MLGinsider have informed us that the new Heaven and Earth roster consists of Cpt. Anarchy, Karma, Drew and Pow.

This brings an interesting group of players together and re-unites Anarchy and Karma.  This team has alot of potential and the support players to go big if someone can step up and main slay.  This is defiantly a top 8 team if they can pull it togeather.  It will be interesting to see how this team pans out.

Mackeo for Legend

For those who haven’t heard, Mackeo has now replaced Legend as the newest member of Classic.  Mackeo brings a lot of energy to Classic a team that turned a lot of heads in Cloumbus, but was a disappointment in Dallas.  I think it will be an upgrade for them, but to what degree I’m not yet certain.   We’ll get a more indepth analysis for you in the near future

Best of luck Sypher

We here over at MLGinsider would like to wish the best of luck to Sypher and his family as they go through this incredibly hard time in their lives. Please feel free to show your support and encourage Sypher and his family below.

For those not aware of the situation, Sypher, due to personal family issues, will not be able to attend Dallas, so Believe the Hype only now has 3 team members after the roster lock. We would like for this article to serve as a voice so that MLG will let Believe the Hype Change their roster with little to no problems. I encourage you to support the cause and wish Sypher the best of luck.

Best of Luck Sypher hope that all is well

A couple of weeks ago my parents were fighting and my mom wanted some time to think and I thought my family was going to be destroyed because me, my brother and my father had to live in a hotel because my mom didn’t want to see my father or us because we look like him. My father was destroyed. I couldn’t leave him by his side and I thought my family was done for but my mom took him back. I’m not sure what he did but I think he cheated on my mom. My mom took us in and I thought we were back to normal but she was just dealing with him for the sake of me and my brother. I awoke yesterday finding that they had been fighting all morning and they agreed on a divorce in front of my brother. Now not only can I not leave my father because I have to hang around in a hotel for a bit but my brother was my only way to go to Dallas. I thought I was able to go alone but my parents said it’s too dangerous. I begged my brother to go but he just told me how could I be thinking of a god damn video game at the time and to be honest I have to agree with him. I wish this could of went any other way but my life as of now is seriously going down the ****ter quickly. I know this is the worst possible time to say this but it’s not like I ****ing planned this whole operation.

More roster changes!

Our sources have informed us of a few new roster changes. The “Mac Attack” aka: Mackeo is teaming with  Tizoxic, Nexus, Gilkey  on Ambush. Which gives ambush 6272.5 points.

Our sources are telling us also that XiT Woundz has lost Luck and Bonfire.  Luck is said to be teaming with Darkwing, CuCuy and Drasai  who seem to be locals from Texas.  Our sources are telling us even though Luck said that Xit Woundz seed is being dropped this may not entirely be the case.  We will know within the next few days whats going on with XiT. Rumors are that Bonfire may either be retiring or go into the free agency.  We will let you know the latest on the XiT situation as we get it.

Cpt Anarchy is now on Uti and appears willing to play though AM with them.

Musical Rosters

The fun just keeps on going and going. We brought the news of Demon D being dropped for Mackeo. Well it was official for about 36 hours. That’s when the rest of BtH had a meeting and determine they wanted Demon D back. As for Mackeo he’ll land on a solid team soon.

Carbon has finally found their fourth. For days now the speculation about Naded being on Carbon has swirled as he ran games with them. Well, to all the naysayers, it’s true. From our sources on the team they did in-fact offer the fourth spot to Naded who accepted.

As for the whole Strongside to Final Boss issue. We got to have a brief conversation with him online and he’s pretty pumped. He’s very happy to be back on Final Boss. When we spoke he was actually pulling all his FB memorabilia out of storage. I will say, generally speaking, a happy Strongside is a beastly Strongside.

On another note Cpt. Anarchy has been running games and scrimming with Ambush. It is looking more and more like he with end up there.

FB StrongSide?!

This just in from a very reliable source who is close to the situation.

Final Boss has just dropped Mackeo.  Mackeo is now a F/A.

Officially SQ InTheClutch

It is Official….. We have just received word from sources close to the SQ camp that Status Quo has officially offered the 4th spot to InTheClutch.  It happened around 8pm Eastern time.  I think Clutch will be a very good fit.  We’ll continue to keep and eye on their scrims online for you .

Congratulations to Wes, InTheClutch, on making what is still a very underrated team in my opinion.

Killerdrew on Columbus & Rosters

We wanted to bring you Drew’s thoughts about Columbus and all the happenings afterwards:

The Columbus events

As everyone knows Heaven and Earth went through a few controversial team changes prior to the Columbus live event. The bottom line regarding these changes is, there were a few disagreements we acted very swiftly without thinking and we were all being very stubborn. We never wanted to change the team up at all. So when it came down to it we knew Hokum couldn’t practice a whole lot, but he told us he could play every day for two weeks right before the event. So we figured if we used our time wisely we could get by with 2 weeks of practice.

We played together 2 days out of those 2 months of the off time and then played a total of about 15 games together as a team. Less than 10 of those games were scrims the rest was matchmaking playlist. I’m not going into detail about how we didn’t play and how we weren’t prepared. I just want to get over it and forget the weekend and move on. So we now realize that practice was very important to us and it obviously shows whichever team shows up most prepared will do well. With that being said, Heaven and Earth feels as if Hokum’s drive is no longer there. Sunday night he even told me face to face he “doesn’t care”. I tried to get in contact with him after the tournament to talk about what was going to happen but I never got to speak with him. Now to end it, I would like to confirm that Heaven and Earth’s new roster will be KillerDrew, PoWeeZy, Perplexity, and Karma. We look forward to practicing like a team should be practicing after a top 8 performance in Meadows. Our hunger, drive, and commitment is there and hopefully all the Hokum fans have no hard feelings as we respect Hokum and wish him luck with his new job and school life in California. See you guys in Dallas.

Thanks for clearing it up for us Drew.

HaE Karma????

Yes it true.  We’ve confirmed it through our sources and as of 5:00pm Eastern time.  The new Heaven and Earth is  Killerdrew, Poweezy, Perplexity and Karma.  Ben is replacing Lester (aka Hokum) after Columbus.  Lester seemed to have some other things on his mind.  The the question now is will HaE be sponsored by vG or will some one else.

Status Quo Now on the Hunt

With the loss of Strongside, Status Quo now begins the search to fill the role and spot vacated by the Halo veteran.

While they still have a very young and talented team, they now need to find a dynamic player who can fill that role that Side had.  There are a lot of players that will be interested and a lot of players that would actually leave the team their on to join this up-and-coming team.

A few possibilities that come to mind are: (this is in no specific order)

1. KillerDrew – Drew slaying ability could fit very nicely with SQ.  He would just need to keep his Ego in check and step into a team role instead of the Captain role he is accustomed to
2. InTheClutch – Clutch could actually be a very good fit.  In my opinion, he is very underrated.  I think he caught a lot of heat for BtH’s Columbus performance when it wasn’t completely his fault.  He is a very dynamic player that could bring a lot of excitement to the team.
3. Naded – Brett is pounded by many due to his lack of “teamwork”, but he has a very free-wheelin style of play.  This at times puts him out of place, but also allows him to turn the tide of a game if he gets hot.  SQ just might have enough talent to weather the chances he takes and be able to benefit when those chances turn into game changing opportunities.
4. Cpt Anarchy – He is a Halo veteran as well. I haven’t watched enough of his VOD to really make an educated analysis, but he is still going to be a solid consistent option.

There are obviously many other options, but I just chose a few to present here.  If you have you’re own opinion on who they should pick up then post it in the comments below.

Strongside Leaves SQ for Carbon

It appears the prospect of teaming with former Captain and good friend Walshy was too much of a temptation for Side.  He called a few people last night to explain that it was a very difficult decision for him to make, but that in the end he felt that a move to Carbon was in his best interest.  

Side spent quite a bit of time playing with Totz over the offseason and Status Quo has had their moments where they shine and moments that they’d rather forget.  They played poorly in Meadowlands and placed 8th.  Then in Columbus, due to a roster submission technicality, they had no coach and still placed in 7th place.  They didn’t necessarily play well in Columbus, but had they had a coach they probably would have finished around 5th.

So now with Side on Carbon their new squad is Walshy, Shockwave, Defy and Strongside.  This is a team that will be competitive, but I don’t know if they can beat the top teams right now in Triggers Down and Str8 Rippin.

Roster Changes Abound

This event was very competitive and as a result we are already seeing the backlash of teams trying to better themselves and get the edge.

Let’s Start with the biggest one of all.  Dave Walsh is no longer a member of Instinct. From sources very close to the team Walshy has been dropped and Ghostayame is his replacement.  This looks to be a very good pick up for Instinct who seemed out of sorts in Columbus.  Walshy has played better, but is just not the right fit for this team.  Lunchbox does all the technical things that Dave does and is a better slayer Mason has shown the ability to play the technical side as well.   Ghost is a very Consistent and solid slayer.  He will be a very welcome addition to the team and should allow Mason to get back to being Mason.

It appears that Walsh will be most likely landing on Carbon with Shockwave and Defy.  There are rumors that Carbon may try to replace Cpt Anarchy with Strongside, reuniting Dave and Mike.  In my opinion it would be hard to see that happen as Carbon was just outplaced by Status Quo.  Then again this is MLG so anything can happen

InTheClutch was also dropped by Believe the Hype.  We have no update as to his replacement at this point, but with all the changes going on now they should find a very suitable replacement.

Top 16 teams are Set

These are the Official Top 16 teams for C-Bus.  The Dynasty will not have Pro Status, but is the number 16 team.

Wow … roster changes Galore

Now Soviet is on Believe the Hype and Clutch and BtH dropped Syphur.  Defy is no longer on Classic he has since left to join Carbon.  

We have reason to believe that Soviet may have been dropped we’ll let you know for sure.  As for vG The New Order our contacts at Vanity Gaming have said that The New Order will definitely still be picking up one from the “Golden ticket” contest. It is not certain whether they will pick up two now or if they will pick up a f/a.
