Insider sits down with Mackeo
January 5, 2010 by apollo
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!
