Halo 5: Guardians |OT3| Ball Dropped

He is not kidding I love my Elite controller, that commercial is like porn but for gamers haha

Haven't played with it more than a few times. Kind of regret the purchase, a bit too heavy and just don't have the patience to learn the paddles. I just use my sunset white controller, but the left joystick has started to lose that grip texture on it, smoothing out.

It takes time but it is so so worth it, I recommend trying again, start with two small ones.

I love the weight to it, it feels really high quality.

is naded still in the pro scene?

edit: flamesword any good?

Naded arguably one of the best playing right now, he's leading the #1 seeded Allegiance which already won today. Flamesword having some team struggles with OpTic. They're going to compete in the last chance qualifier to see if they'll make the HWC or not. He's been scrimming a lot and grinding at nights.

edit: ^^ LOL

Hate to go against my man Heinz as a fellow Mets fan, but I'm pulling for Renegades in this series.

Seems Plat will be... less than ideal. Every match thus far seems to pit one player whose clearly a much higher skill level than everyone else against us. And I get people who go 5 and 15. Happens every match.

I also don't want to kind of ruin it lol. Thing cost like $203 CAD so it just sits in that pouch they provided. I did remove the large paddles and just play with two, but it still makes me feel awkward when playing. Maybe if I had it at launch it would be different. I think that's the same reason I haven't changed the controller settings much from default. Just too hesitant to the change and I think I've been left behind for the great journey.

Stellur is babby. Pretty sure this is babby's first LAN.

Still love how he just announced to OpTic he was out and went to the next room to play with RNG.

I got mine at Christmas, there's still time my friend :)

There's more to the story than that. He got the invite and immediately showed Flamesword the text and asked for his input. Props to OpTic for not being salty about it. Kid had an opportunity to compete at X Games for a gold medal, pretty wild.

Ninja with the triple. He hit the tashi ceiling though

He went HAM as hell, what a play with sword camo.

I heard yeah, hats off to the team for sure. I just love picturing that, must've been so odd.

LET'S GO RNG!

That was one hell of a way to kick off the series. Liquid just aren't what they were without Ninja and Chig imo.

Fuck yes!

Let's go Renegades.
Wow, what a game by Renegades. I bet that win is sweet for Ninja after getting dropped.
Did you watch the first online qualifier after ninja got dropped?

Renegades beat Liquid 50-23 in a plaza slayer, it was an absolute domination.

I don't understand it to be honest. On paper this Liquid squad should be Top 4. Not a good showing here or even in the online tourneys since Ninja was dropped.
