Look at Liquid going up 2-0 on Allegiance. I thought they looked pretty shaky all the way through NA Regionals but they are looking good today.

 

[Fata1moose]

Anyone remember the Halo Channel? Neither do I.

 

[FATstronaut]

I cant get twitch to load

Working fine both screens for me. Come on over, nerd!

 

[Glass]

Holy shit if Epsilon had won and come out of the bracket in 1st...

 

[Trup1aya]

Fuck twitch stopped working for me!!! Neither the app nor browser! Also are there two streams?

 

[backflip10019]

Yeah, twitch is dead.

Perfect.

 

[NoLongerALurker]

Yeah, Twitch just died on my Amazon FireTV. Still up on my Xbox though.

 

[Trup1aya]

Ofcourse twitch would die today...

 

[curiouscharles]

No idea what snip3down uses. I wish there was a page I could check that listed all the pros schemes and sensitivity settings.

he uses boxer, i just googled it.

pretty sure nobody bumper jumps anymore, it just wouldn't make sense with scuf / elite controllers being so common now.

 

[Fata1moose]

Strongholds is the GOAT competitive Halo game.

 

[backflip10019]

Twitch is back up!

 

[Fata1moose]

Holyshit that ending.

 

[NoLongerALurker]

Wow Liquid with the sweep!

 

[Glass]

Loving the Halo score being used throughout this. Makes for great hype music.

twitch.tv/halo

twitch.tv/esl_halo

yea 2 streams. All games are available to watch this time.

twitch.tv/esl_halo is the 2nd stream

Edit: beaten

 

[curiouscharles]

Wow Liquid with the sweep!

absolutely nuts, i really thought ace's aim was looking weak earlier, but well played by TL.

(sad for Naded, seriously dude can't get a break)

Strongholds is the GOAT competitive Halo game.

it really is, it really, really, is.

 

[singhr1]

Sorry Naded. Those missed rockets at the end

 

[Poodlestrike]

Is twitch like down for anyone else? Can't get it to load.

Yeah, mine crapped out.

 

[curiouscharles]

Yeah, mine crapped out.

what are you watching on?

my xbone twitch app pretty much ALWAYS craps out [just during regular / non-heavy-traffic days].

have stuck to PC ever since.

 

[Velcoro]

Naded should of joined EG when he had the chance

 

[backflip10019]

Damn, CLG just running train on Skyfire. Teams aren't even in the same ballpark.

 

[curiouscharles]

Naded should of joined EG when he had the chance

was he offered?!?

naded on EG would have been a fantastic choice, could have given CLG a proper run for their money.

edit: also, when the heck does EG play? i need to go to the gym but musn't miss my boys in action.

 

[Velcoro]

They asked him if he was interested when Lethul left but he declined so they went with Hamy. EG should be playing after the Infused-Exile matchup.

cool, thanks!

i'll wait then!

That just depresses me. I used to roll with boxer pre-halo 4. Finally forced myself to switch to bumper jumper only to have halo 5 come out with even more important abilities to deal with on a controller and then ms releases the elite controller which I can't afford lol. I'm literally back to playing with an inferior control scheme while everyone else is face rolling... /sadface

lol, don't get too down on yourself, i play with an original xbone controller [no 3.5mm jack, no fixed bumpers], and on default no less.

(i also still stream to my w10 pc as well lol)

Yeah, as someone who loves seeing chat move like crazy and peoples OTT reactions adds to the hype, I've had a problem with the Halo twitch restrictions for months.

 

[The Real Napsta]

Have they said how to get the req pack yet?

As far as I know a lot of pros use BJ but thing is a lot of them claw. CLG's whole team uses BJ and claws. Roy and Lunchbox use BJ but pretty sure they don't claw.

some other pro's control schemes:

Ninja - Default
Snip3down - Boxer
Naded - Recon

 

[curiouscharles]

woah dude, we're like proper halo bros!

i was like, known [or something] in the titanfall PC community for being that dude that played without sound all the time lol.

then i built a garage studio to work out of, but by then halo 5 came out so my titanfall days were over.

 

[Glass]

The Halo shorts continue to be excellent.

 

[link1201]

Gotta watch on Sunday.

"anyone who watches the Finals broadcast – starting on Sunday at 4 p.m. PT on their Xbox One or Twitch – can get the Halo World Championship REQ Pack for free. This special HaloWC REQ Pack includes the all new “Ultra Rare” Challenger armor set and HaloWC 2016 emblem. Act fast as this is only available until 9 a.m. PT on Mar. 21."

 

[Deputy Moonman]

Okay so here us a hypothetical question. Say you get the 10 dollar req pack but don't have all of your silvers done. Could you wait to open the pack until way down the road and still get the 343 skins?

Yeah but I suspect they use an elite with paddles too.

 

[thenexus6]

Nice echo on the stream

 

[backflip10019]

These announcers really need to chill on the bubu dubu stuff

Most if not all of them use a scuf. Frosty and Commonly don't use paddles either on their scuf's so it all depends on the person.

 

[BraXzy]

Have they still not relaxed the settings? They've gotta be using some crappy strict bot. Shame.

 

[BraXzy]

Damn that was tense DENIAL!!!

 

[Velcoro]

damn I wish they stayed on Huke right there pretty sure he clutched it for the last kill

How does that work though? How will they know which GTs watched the stream (on twitch)

Will most likely have to watch Twitch on Xbox. The other way is the Live Event Player, which might be way that statement is poorly worded.
