I think laudy did a good job running the desk. I think the cardboard cutout of golden boy was hilarious. The series for the most part went as expected. Lots of 3-0. A few exciting game 5’s. I was going reciprocity. So seeing them take down splyce was awesome!!  Their Sunday wasn’t so good. They’re so close to being on par with tox and splyce. But they just keep misplaying objective I find. But it’s was an exciting tournament. As always wonderboy and the guys in the background did an incredible job with the observer mode part! The casting in halo is always top notch. And seeing what they did for Simms on the cast was heartwarming. It’s got me excited for dreamhack!  Can’t wait to see how splyce answers to dropping a tournament. And see how tox does with defending a title once again. And how all the other teams improve over the next few months through an even harder grind!! Real question here though. I know you guys had spitballed doing like an Xbox live party chat viewing party. If you end up doing that it would be awesome!!! Have some people to talk to between the games. About all the big moments that always happen. Gas HCS Favorite series. Lucid vs Trifecta. The GF Series 2 is an obvious choice but the reaction from the Trifecta guys and EU support for their best chance at T8 was quality. Not the result I wanted but cracking game all the same. Why it was a feature stage game I’ll never know Moments. Honestly they didn’t get the result they wanted but bubudubu getting increasingly hype in the series of Excelerate vs Renegades. He was consistently making clutch plays and let them know about it. Mikwen and Penguin reminded everyone that they are top tier players. I think Mikwen went 16-6 first map against Splyce in Losers Semis. Insane performances all round. Frosty giving one of the best individual games I’ve ever seen in Refuge CTF v Splyce also. Inhuman Favorite Series? -Reciprocity Vs Splyce (Saturday and Sunday) : was interesting to see the major contrast in both teams between the 2 series on both days. Players- @SnakeBiteFPS  was popping off all weekend, didn't get nearly enough attention. Moment- renegade taking the L Jim Efantis I loved the video wall.  I also loved the post game breakdown with each of the players.  It was a great show! Only drawback, the cut back to the desk with Lottie and the boys seemed to drag on a but too much.  The vignettes (riding bikes, eating wings) were all great fillers!

It’s hard to predict anyone besides Splyce winning, but I personally would like to see Tox take it home. Or someone like Reciprocity or Elevate. ScudPuddle - I agree. I think it’s either going to be Splyce or Tox.  Probably splyce Gas HCS - Warlord on Mockit one to watch.

Therefore, we have gotten support from our friends at LindaX to make sure that the prize pool will be no less than $25K. That means that if Battle7oken goes up in value, the prize pool could be more. However, it can’t dip below $25K.

But admittedly, I only played H3 and H5 online. In that case, you asked for a why. H3 brings with it all the feelings and nostalgia of my first online experience that had a competitive scene with it in MLG. I never play H2 online so this was the first time for me that there seemed a real possibility to play for money. Whether or not I ever reached that level of play, the fact that there was an opportunity was a big deal. I would still like to play H3. I wouldn’t say 99% nostalgia for me. But it did play a big part in my life for a couple years. I sort of had a “relationship” with H3 if you want to call it that. Maybe like 60%-80% nostalgia for me. Goalie Sniper H3 for me. It was my first online game. (First game I ever played online I got MVP!!!). It was the game that I convinced all my friends to get xbox360’s for. The amount of custom games I played with friends was insane. It was a routine with my friend group. Get home from school. Play halo 3 all night. Laugh our asses off have a great time. Go to school the next day and laugh about the stuff that happened the night before. It was easy for anybody to pick up and have fun. But hard to become really good at it. So it’s 99% nostalgia why I love that game so much. Jonathan (DaddyTrax) Halo 2. Fast paced and the best maps. Sander Halo 3, remember that I liked it more then going to a bar on a friday night, so addictive and fun. Salty1 H2 365 24/7 Halo Infinite News Halo 3 for me. I am sure there are some people out there who legitimately think Halo 2 is better. However I feel like some people say that because they want to seem cool/different/ old school, or maybe don't remember the game as it really was. Mark Francis & Alex Sauer My favorite Halo of all time is Halo 5 because of the new Spartan Abilities, and Overall Online experience. I feel like this is the most competitive Halo yet. Due to the abilities, I feel like you can be more skillful at Halo 5. They give the game more depth. Halo CE is my # 2. Alex Sauer - Agreed Just Simon Who doesn't agree about H2 ? all the H3 kids ... everybody knows that H2 was the best Halo . all the glitches combos ( BXR , BXB, RRXYYRRX, Supernades , double nades , etc ) name them. Even for the casual players with their hyper bounces. *Sid was here* Mc donald emblem , writing TJ Campbell Grunt 4500 I loved H4’s MP, it includes some of my most fond memories and I always have a fun time playing it. So yea, you could say I said Halo 4, even Halo 5. Joshua Gutierrez Waay too many fucking memories with Halo 3. It was my first game that I beat in one night, I played countless matches of Rumble Pit and FFA, not to mention the endless hours spent with my siblings in custom games. Halo 3 is the best game ever. Dust Storm I'd have to say H2 only because there are some critical things missing from H5. HE had something for everyone and still fostered that LAN party environment, which you just can't get most of the time these days. Weapons feel great, BTB maps are awesome, and the genesis of customs. JJCoolJua I picked Halo 2, 100% for the nostalgia factor. Halo 2 was the game I played with my dorm mates in college. Spending hours doing custom games, or learning how to super jump, or escaping maps.
