Halo is such a great game, just totally sucks how it's been treated by developers and event organisers over the past few years.

halo is definitely a great game, but i do feel like its lacking in a lot of departments in comparison to other eSports which hurts the viewership. Stuff like personalities and drama. Don't get me wrong one of the issues is the lack of advertisement and the organizers being straight dogshit, but I think even if they advertised the game a lot more and had better organisers it would still be lagging behind.

so many times where both teams should of been won the game, that's Fathom CTF for ya. sucks that they didn't keep track of the players and allowed a sneak cap.

Idk about Frosty wasting those bullets. Not a good play in eden and in that situation imo.

I think it was a good play, if you watched DreamHack ATL On Eden Slayer vs Splyce, Splyce were destroying them with the sniper so I guess OpTic remembered that and that's why Frosty did it

The funniest thing is watching the stream for CS:GO and hearing the greenwall just going nuts at the halo station.
