Struggling

Been a while, but I'm still about the same rank. I'm a 31 and all the higher I have been is a 33, which was very short lived. Over the last 224 games I have played in MLG game type since 8/11/2008 I am 99-125, which is far from stellar. However, I do feel as though I am playing very well. However, I think whenever you are playing this level of Halo it's very important to be playing with some teammates that communicate and are able to play well together. I never have that. At the very best it's me and Colby and although we play great together, a lot of times our teammates don't play that well. Anyhow today I went 2-3, but every game I was positive, 4 were objective games where I went 2-2 and the final game was TS on Guardian where I was +5, but all my teammates went negative. So hopefully I can start to team up with some people online and start consistently winning some games...

Somehow...

I'm a 30 in MLG despite going 32-38 in my last 70 games. Colby and I played last night and played great, however we only went 3-3 because we got disconnected during a game we were dominating and should have gone 4-2. Ahhh well. That's all for now...

Games are getting very tough...

Up to a 28 and a 16 on MLG and SWAT respectively, but games are getting very tough as I've only gone 17-17 in my last 34 games. I feel like my objective games are going well as I went 8-5 in those over that time frame. My shot feels a little bit off, I'm sure that has to do something with it being that I'm shooting at tougher, trickier, and good opponent. So hopefully I can get something going to get closer to that fleeting 50!

Long Time, No Post

Surprisingly got quite a few games in over the last month. I played 95 matches between MLG and Team Swat and managed to go 50-45 in those games, which I guess isn't stellar. However, the competition (particularly in the MLG) is getting extremely tough. I managed to improve my MLG rank from a 16 to 27 since the last post and my Team Swat rank is now a 14. So not too bad, but need to keep moving on up in MLG! 50 here I come!

A Few MLG Games

To break the monotony that is studying for the last final of my career I managed to get some MLG games in...

MLG MLG Team Slayer on Narrows: Went 18/13/8 (kills/deaths/assists), but we ended up losing by one.

MLG Team King on Construct: This normally is one of my best game types, and I guess that shows since I still managed to go 19/20/10 despite one teammate quitting. Short handed objective games are extremely tough, so it was pretty surprising that we managed to do relatively well.

MLG Team Slayer on Narrows: Really, really sick game where I played pretty conservative as I kept getting the sniper and rather than spawn trapping people from top center I was just doing it man cannon side and at the very least taking off shields for my teammates. I ended up going 14/4/9 on the game.

MLG Team King on Pit: Had a pretty nice balance between slaying and hill time, mainly slayed whenever I got the sniper and did some decent work going 12/9/10. I had the second most hill time w/ 92 seconds in the hill.

Team MLG Slayer on Narrows: Was lagging this game so only went 9/9/9 and called it quites for the first session.

Went 3-2, but somehow decreased my ranking from a 17 to a 16. Kind of strange... probably will take another break from studying later because I have ADD. So till then...

I'm Back!

After having my XBOXs gone for nearly three weeks, I finally got them back and was on point last night. I first of all increased my sensitivity from 1 to 2 in order to be a little quicker with my BR. I struggled the first couple games, but started to pick it up. For the night Colby and I played 10 games and went 7-3 which is pretty solid and for the most part we led the team in kills and more importantly K/D spread even while leading the way in the objective some games as well. I increased my MLG ranking from a 12 to a 17, so I its only a matter of time before I'm a 50! Here's a couple of the better games from yesterday:

MLG Team King on Construct: K/D Spread of +23 w/ the second most hill time. I had a sick Frenzy on there as well that I'm going to have to upload w/ a couple of double kills (one a near triple), several no scopes, and one rocket where I got the guy midair.

MLG Team Slayer on Narrows: The few games we lost looked something like this where Colby (playing under WiseWonder) and I were both pretty positive in K/D spread and still managed to lose because our teams were a combined -18. Nothing you can do there.

Anyhow here are my rankings now:

Lone Wolves: 41 (E)
Team Slayer: 43 (E)
Team Objective: 15 (E)
Team Tactical: 8 (E)
Team Doubles: 29 (E)
Team Control: 4 (E)
Ranked Big Team: 4 (E)
MLG: 17 (+5)

That's all for now thanks for reading.

Quick Rankings Update w/ MLG Ranking

Have the MLG ranking up to a 12 in only about 3 sessions of playing, it seems a little tougher to move up and when you do it seems if you lose a game you are down a ranking. Not sure about that just speculating...

Lone Wolves: 41 (E)
Team Slayer: 43 (+1)
Team Objective: 15 (E)
Team Tactical: 8 (E)
Team Doubles: 29 (-1)
Team Control: 4 (E)
Ranked Big Team: 4 (E)
MLG: 12 (N/A)
