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!

WoW Character Class Breakdown

January 29, 2010 by Jay "Zalieum" Biros · Leave a Comment 

Along with choosing a race, like Human or Troll, players also choose one class for their character to be from a choice of ten character classes. These ten classes are, the Druid, Hunter, Mage, Paladin, Priest, Rogue, Shaman, Warlock, Warrior, and Deathknight. These classes can be categorized into Healers, Damage Per Second, and Tanks. Healers have the ability to heal everyone and pets. Damage per second have the ability to do mass numbers of damage and kill very fast. Tanks can take huge amounts of damage and are very difficult to kill. In player vs. player, like you see at MLG WoW events, there are usually only Healers and DPS on teams because Tanks just drag out the game and do not do damage like DPS can.

Healer classes are Druids, Paladins, Priests, and Shaman. Death Knights can also heal but only Blood Speced Death Knights can and most of their spells only heal themselves. Healers have small and big heals and the magic used and cast time is less with smaller heals and more with bigger ones. The trick to being a good healer is to always keep a line of sight with your teammates and to choose when to cast bigger and smaller heals.

Damage Per Second, or DPS, can be played by ever class as long as you choose the right talent tree to go down. The classes you see played in MLG will change with the patches that come out for the game. Patches come out for the game to change up the over powered classes and give everyone a fair chance at winning.

Tanks are not played because they are just too hard to kill with their armor, defense rating, and huge amounts of health. They also do too little damage to be considered in competitive play. Look forward to more World of Warcraft articles coming soon!

“Slayer Swap” roster updates 1/18/10

January 18, 2010 by Trent · 1 Comment 

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!!

Orlando ’10….Again?

January 17, 2010 by apollo · 1 Comment 

Sources over here at MLGinsider are telling us that the first even in the 2010-2011 Major League Gaming will be back to Orlando as the opener around April 16-18.  It’s pretty interesting that MLG is coming back to Orlando.  Stay tuned to Insider for more information on this year’s Pro Circuit.

Good? Bad? Stupid? Good idea? Let us know what you think!

Roster Moves Round 1

January 17, 2010 by Trent · 2 Comments 

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!

2010 Orlando Halo Breakdown

January 15, 2010 by Trent · 1 Comment 

Like me many of you are looking at the results of the Halo 3 National Championships and sitting there rather perplexed as to how this all happened.  Well, you’re definitely not alone.  It’s been a long time since we had a finals that didn’t have Str8 Rippin, Triggers Down or Final Boss in it. If my memory serves me right it hasn’t happened since  Halo 1, but yet here we are staring at the 2010 Halo 3 national Champions, Believe the Hype and the runner-up Classic.

Some people will say Str8 and Instinct and TD all had bad tournaments.  Well, you might be able to make a case for it. Some will say that the brackets had something to do with it.  That BtH and Classic were able to continue to play warmed up were as the higher seeds all had a bye.  That’s not really a great argument since it’s really a detriment that BtH and Classic had to play two more rounds to get there.

In my opinion, it’s really just that it was their tournament.  It’s hard to look back at BtH’s play and find flaws in their play.  They played consistent and were actually very dominant at times. Clutch was steady unlike his streaky play in Anaheim and Demon D and Cloud were men on a mission.  Maniiac played great even though he’s relatively new to the big stage.

You look at Classic things went in their favor as well.  This is evident in their CTF match with TD.  Just as Heinz is about to cap the final flag and beat classic in the series 3-1, Hysteria’s xbox got the dreaded “Red Ring of Death” and the match had to be replayed.  Classic came back to win the series 3-2. Like I said it was just their tournament.

As for the Top Teams in Carbon, Instinct, Triggers Down and Str8 Rippin.  I wish they would all stay together, however, the only one of those four I don’t see making changes is Carbon.  I think you will see someone on tD and Str8 both either leave or get dropped.  I also think that instinct with make 1 if not more changes.

Let me know why you think things worked out this way.

Free Agent Spotlight

January 11, 2010 by apollo · 2 Comments 

Ever dream of being pro?  Want to get on a top caliber team but don’t know how to get your name out there?  Well, MLGInsider would like to help. Therefore, we are starting what I’d like to call…The Free Agent Spotlight.

What is the Free Agent Spotlight you may ask?
Well every other week I’m going to start off by giving a position such as Main Slayer, Support, or Objective. Even though every good MLG player should know there is no real classifications of players, we’re just using this to separate everyone. Then if you consider yourself to be the class of the week.  You need to submit via e-mail a link to your fileshare with a gameplay that showcases this, along with the reason why you should be this weeks spotlight member. Also if you got a past team that has done well before and they’ll vouch for you then we will take it into consideration also.

Now your thinking to yourself.  How is this going to help me get notice?  Well, the answer is this.  After we select the winner, we will capture the video, and upload it to our youtube account.  Then, myself with the help of Mazsik(coach of Believe the Hype) will break the game down and give it a full gameplay analysis.  We will then put what you are looking for, as well as post your contact info on the site.  We will also post the runner up’s fileshare link and contact info.

Now if all of this sounds good to you? Here is what you got to do. Put a normal game up on your fileshare, just a normal game. We are not looking for try hard of the week here. Once it is submitted we will download it, watch it, then i will most likely look back on your bungie.net checking past games and see how you have done in the past. You must then write up a short paragraph stating the reason that we should select you as our spotlight of the week.

For the first Free Agent Spotlight we are going to start at the top of the list by looking for the best Free Agent Main Slayer out there.

If you think you’re the best main slayer out there send the above info to apollo@mlginsider.com with the subject header of “Free Agent Spotlight Entry.” Also, in the e-mail please include an AIM screen name where i can reach you.

For any questions or additional info please message me on AIM at InsiderApollo!

The winner will be announced Next Friday!

Good Luck!

Congratulations to BtH our National Champs!

January 10, 2010 by apollo · 1 Comment 

MLGinsider would like to congratulate Demon D, Clutch, Cloud, Maniac, and Mazsik for their first place finish at MLG Orlando and their big check of $100,000 dollars!

We would also like to congratulate Classic for their second place finish and Carbon for their third place finish

MLG Orlando Day 3 – What to expect

January 10, 2010 by Trent · Leave a Comment 

Coming into day 3, you probably know by now that Classic and Believe the Hype are playing in the winners bracket finals to see who will advance to the championsip match.  Classic did it beating SQ (3-0), Carbon (3-0) and Triggers Down (3-2).  BtH did it beating FB (3-2), Instinct (3-2) amd Str8 (3-2).

The keys for this match up.

Classic

  1. Continue with their incredible teamwork
  2. Don’t get overconfident

BtH

  1. They need to team shoot more and be less individual
  2. Don’t get over emotional

Lets see if any of the AM teams can get into the top 8.

The laundry list of teams that need to do a gut check is as follows: Instinct (L 3-2 BtH), Carbon (L 3-0 Classic), Triggers Down (L 3-2 Classic) and the defending National Champions Str8 Rippin (L 3-2 BtH).

Side Note:  Ghost’s performance thus far on Classic makes me wonder about what went wrong on Instinct in Dallas.  Like Walshy, he left Instinct and has had back to back solid tournaments.  Interesting huh?

Day 2 MLG Orlando – Wow Seriously??

January 9, 2010 by Trent · 1 Comment 

I never knew that Cinderella had a successful sister, I thought they were just wicked.  Well, no matter which team is your Cinderella, she definitely has a successful sister in MLG Orlando this year.  Classic and Believe the Hype are the Dual Cinderella stories of the 2010 Orlando National Championships in Halo 3.

7th Seed Believe the Hype’s Improbable Day 2 Run:

  • Opened with a 3-2 win over 6th seed Final Boss
  • They followed that with an impressive 3-2 upset of # 3 seed Instinct
  • They topped that off with an upset of the #2 seed and defending National Champions Str8 Rippin 3-2

5th Seed Classic’s Improbable Day 2 Run:

  • They opened strong with a 3-0 win over a still under-performing Status Quo
  • They followed that with 3-0 rout of #4 seed Carbon
  • Finally, they did what few teams have been able to do this year, they beat #1 seed Triggers Down 3-2

So into the losers bracket for all of our top 4 seeds.

Note:

Heaven and Earth was knocked out by Active Rush for top 16.

January 9, 2010 by apollo · 2 Comments 

While the pros duke it out on Main Stage, the winners bracket is heating up. I’m going to update this as the rounds go until championship bracket

Let start out with what could be the biggest news of the day. Europe is taking Orlando by storm, with all 3 team completely destroying the Winners Bracket. These teams are only 2 matches away from breaking out of AM into the championship bracket and they way the brackets are set. The 3 European teams will not have to face each other until the Championship bracket. Will these 3 teams be the start of a European revolution?

Congrats to the teams that have gotten out of AM. And those are:

Take Respect
Perfect Evolution
Power
Four of a Kind
Chief Bugs
Hakuna Matata
North of 49
Apocalypse
Soarin and Fourin
Suprise
UoR Gimme my money
Victorious Secret

Now that you know what teams are closing in on breaking out. Let us know what you think. Will this be the event where a European team places pro? Will a European team place top 4? Top 1? Let us

Orlando Off With A Bang

January 9, 2010 by Trent · Leave a Comment 

The Major League Gaming 2010 championships are off and running. With the biggest crowd ever at a National Championship Event it should be a great weekend.

The first order of business was to announce the Stride Championship Player of the Year.   This year’s player is one of the most exciting players in MLG history.  Congratulations to Naded for a great season.  He has really found his stride(no pun intended) with Carbon.  As the number 4 seed they are gonna try an turn some heads in Orlando.

Also congratulations are in order for Tizoxic and Skyllus as they are they 2009 Old Spice Rising Star award winners for Halo 3 and Gears of War.

Allstar Classic wrap-up:

In Halo 3, the West Finally won their first Allstar Classic lead by strong performances all around. The Overall series in 6-1 in favor of the East.  In Gears of War they made it a clean sweep of the Allstar Classic with the West winning in a strong fashion.
A few side notes:

Players to watch for on Saturday-

  1. Neighbor – He is playing better than I seen before and seems to have finally developed the chemistry with the twins that they have been lacking.
  2. Elamite Warrior – Kyle is playing like the Elamite that helped lead Str8 to last years title.
  3. Hysteria – Is playing very consistent and at a very high level
  4. Walshy – Dave seems to have found his groove in Halo 3.  He is playing at a very elite level and if he gets hot might be able to carry Carbon to the finals

Studs flying below the Radar:

  1. Defy – Looks great and is very underrated
  2. SK – Is on the top ranked team but consistently gets over looked
  3. Cloud/Demon D – These guys still get no respect

Need to know

  1. Final Boss’s replacement of Sypher last week will be a huge questions mark.  If Sypher meshes quickly they can be great.  Let’s not forget Sypher was an anchor of consistency for that BtH team that finished third in Meadowlands.
  2. Status Quo – Has reportedly looked very good in their LANs and they have something to prove.
  3. Only three teams have beaten every other team this season and they are Str8 Rippin, Triggers Down and Believe the Hype.

Well, enjoy the weekend and be sure to check back for more analysis of the weekend.

Insider sits down with Mackeo

January 5, 2010 by apollo · Leave a Comment 

Alright whats going on everyone! As I promised i have an exclusive interview for you all!  He’s a veteran of MLG and has been on more Top teams than we can count! Ranging from old school FBI The Agency back in the good’ol days of Halo 2 to Final Boss!  He’s an awesome guy, i present to you..The one…The only…The Mac-Attack….Mackeo!

Apollo:  Alright, So dude, you’ve fallen off the grid recently and everyone’s talking about you retiring and you lying to a AM team about going to Anaheim.  Care to set the record straight?

Mackeo:  Basically the am team situation was I only had half of my heart in going to Anaheim. I really didn’t want to go but the am team wanted me to. They were going to give me a certain amount of money to go with them and then with that I was going to book the airfare, and they were giong to give me the rest in Anaheim. It took them a while longer to get me the money and they weren’t completely able to fulfill their part. However, I did not book the plane ticket at a smart time so by the time I was looking at airfare it was very expensive and I could not get a time that I desired because I had a test I had to take on Friday of Anaheim. I then told them I think it was the wednesday before the event that I could not attend and gave them all their money back. It was just not a good situation and I’d take most of the blame.

Apollo:  So, do you have any plans for Orlando?

Mackeo:  : I’m not planning on going to Orlando just because I’ve been so focused on school, and if I did go to Orlando it would not be a full effort. When I come back I want it to be for real and not some wimpy attempt.

Apollo:  Have you thought at all about what you might want to do for the 2010 season?

Mackeo: Right now I have no plans for the 2010 season, and haven’t been thinking about halo at all. It woulden’t be that big of a deal to me if I never came back to halo I feel that I’ve moved on from it quite a bit. However, the only real motivation for me to come back is for the money aspect. I know that I’m good enough that I could make money at this game and just be a top player. However, my main concern is not to waste my time and life. After the championships I will probably begin to get on and just feel it out see who I think is good and whatnot. I will also probably talk to Victory. After taking all these things into consideration and depending on how good and confident I feel about myself and potential teammates I will then come back.

Apollo: Hmmm….Do you think you will come back and get back on a top team or do you see yourself putting together an AM team?

Mackeo:  Good question….I’m not too sure yet.  I’d most likely plan on putting a team together that I thought could compete and win.

Apollo:  Have you had a chance to pick up Call of Duty MW2 at all?

Mackeo:  I have played CoD MW2 personally wasn’t a fan I thought CoD 4 took more skill and just the fights are so lame in comparison to halo.

Apollo:  Haha that will go over well with the MW2 community.

Mackeo: Haha yeah I am sure it will.

Apollo: What are your top 4 predictions?

Mackeo: 1st Triggers Down 2nd Str8 Rippin 3rd Carbon 4th FB

Apollo:  If you do decide to come back next season, I know it’s far away but, do you see yourself competing in the 2011 season?

Mackeo: The way I see it is if I come back I’m going to be on top and stay on top so yes I’d be competing in 2011. However, if Iwere to comeback and it be not quite what I wanted I would probably just not think about halo really ever again

Apollo: What type of Mackeo can we expect to see in the 2010 season if you do come back and play?

Mackeo: A great one that will be on the top of his game. With renewed interest.

Apollo:   Now, recently there has been a renewed interest in your disappearance, including the creation of a whole”Mackeo?????” thread on MLGpro.  Have you had a chance to check the thread out? And what do you think of the communities commitment to you.

Mackeo:  I have not had a chance to check out that thread, but I think I’m going to have to now. The fact that the community cares that I disappeared means alot and inspires me to come back to show that I am very capable of being an MLG Pro.

Apollo: Ok so there has been a lot of speculation on what happened between Final Boss and You?  Would you mind letting us in on what really happened?

Mackeo:  Basically I got a phone call from fearitself saying I was off the team, and that was that.

Apollo: So no warning what so ever.  That’s really shady.

Mackeo: Yeah, well its over now and I don‘t really care.

Apollo: Do you have anything to say to anyone, or the community as a whole?

Mackeo: *in an Arnold Schwarzenegger voice*  I’ll be back

Alright you heard it here everyone…Mackeo’s coming back! Its short and sweet and to the point.. But he is a very busy man so thats all we got for you! So, keep checking back! Got another exclusive coming you way sometime next week!

Dr Pepper Ultimate Winter Break Update

January 4, 2010 by Jay "Zalieum" Biros · 1 Comment 

With MLG Orlando 2009 fast approaching, things are beginning to fall into place. On December 16th, the Dr Pepper Ultimate Winter Break came down to the semi-finals. The match ups were Effin Ninja (1) VS. Perplexion! (28) and u knw ron rig (19) VS. CAMO n GTFO (2). The favor of the ladder, Effin Ninja, came out of his match victorious and beat 28th seeded Perplexion! 2-1. In the 2nd match of the semi-finals the underdog, 19th seeded, u knw ron rig, pulled the upset over CAMO n GTFO 2-1. Each of these series was hard fought and both players deserve to be in the finals come Orlando. I got a chance to sit down with both players with a little interview.

Congratulations on earning your spot in the Dr Pepper 1v1 finals in MLG Orlando! Why don’t we start off with telling me a little about how you got into the game and 1v1s.

Effin Ninja: It started off with halo 2, I was 13 and I was visiting family in Arizona and my brothers were playing Halo 2 on XBL and I never heard about it. I asked to play and they said, “No, you’re to young and you will suck.” I got XBL and Halo 2 when I got home and ended up surpassing my brothers in skill 10 fold. So then GameBattles halo 3 1v1s came out and I was bored and realized I was the best.

Gjjonii: First of one of my friends named Richie Kumar or as we call him “Kumz”, I was over his house one day and he was playing Halo 2 and I had no idea how to play or what to do. But I was having so much fun so when I left his house I went out and bought me a copy. So time went on and I was pretty bad at Halo 2 but then when halo 3 came out I saw it as a chance to be the best at something!

Effin Ninja, since you came into the playoffs as the number 1 seed you must have been confident. On the other hand gjjonii, you came into the finals as the 19th seed! It is pretty impressive that you took down the number 2 player on the ladder. How did you guys feel coming into the playoffs?

Effin Ninja: To be honest I knew that I would win. The only competition I had was on the other side of the bracket, Chaos, but somehow Gjjonii beat him. I can guarantee victory on LAN.

Gjjonii: I felt confident that I could beat anyone since before the playoffs began I beat Effin Ninja.

Seems like you are both very confident in your game. That should make a good performance for us watching at Orlando. How will you guys prepare for the finals in less than a month?

Effin Ninja: My teammate Aye Rab is the SMARTEST 1v1 player on guardian, HANDS DOWN! He is going to be scrimming me everyday until the event.

Gjjonii: Personally for me I will just practice a lot probably against a lot of people I know that are good that didn’t make it to the finals. Like, I will try different playing styles against different people and see which one works best.

Do you guys have Event or LAN experience and do you think it will change the way you take your 1v1 at the Orlando finals?

Effin Ninja: I have been to 2 events so far, 5th round event 1 but Aye Rab and I carried. Second event I placed 26th and went +27 in pro bracket. The only thing that will change from XBL to LAN is the shots that my opponent won’t eat.

Gjjonii: I have a lot of LAN experience at like local tournaments like NJhalo and other places, but Ninja has more experience at events and has points.

That crowd can be pretty daunting. This being the first Halo 3 1v1 on the main stage, how do you guys plan to win them over? Anything special?

Effin Ninja: I know that I have a lot of people who have already been messaging me saying they will be there cheering me on. I would say that I play on having a fan club there, but I will win the crowd over with my gameplay.

Gjjonii: I guess to tell you the truth I will be very nervous in front of all those people, but I know Ninja really well so this is gunna be fun.

Now I’m no Chris Pucket, but I think its time for a Zaleium speed round. You guys ready?

Effin Ninja: Bring it!

Gjjonii: IM READY TO DESTROY!

1v1s or 4v4s?

Effin Ninja: 4v4s.

Gjjonii: Both.

Camo or Sniper?

Effin Ninja: Sniper.

Gjjonii: Sniper.

Sneakers or Sandals?

Effin Ninja: Sandals.

Gjjonii: Sneakers.

Slippery Pickle or Naughty Armadillo?

Effin Ninja: Naughty Armadillo.

Gjjonii: Naughty Armadillo.

TD or STR8?

Effin Ninja: Neither, my team.

Gjjonii: TD.

MLG Insider or MLG Insider?

Effin Ninja: MLG Insider? LoL!

Gjjonii: IDK, that’s a tough one…

Good luck in Orlando guys. I know I will be there cheering you both on. Be sure to hit me up! Before I wrap this up, any shout outs?

Effin Ninja: Shout out to my boy Aye Rab, Nate, and Motas who started my competitive gaming career.

Gjjonii: Hell ya to Nick Gjoni, Nate, Richie Kumar, Bee Shey, Zember, CrickCity, Ninja’s brother Jon, and to my last opponent Chaos aka Scottie! They’re many more but not enough space.

Gjjonii wanted me to spread the word that he is going by the name Mac Baby at the event. Orlando is sure to be an exciting event for both 4v4 Halo teams and our 1v1 finalists. These two finalists have already won themselves a all expense paid trip to the Orlando National Championships. Be sure to tune in for them battling for $2,000 prize and the Dr Pepper Ultimate Winter Break crown on January 8th-10th at the MLG 2009 Orlando National Championships!
