It takes a lot of nerves to compete on that level. I've been to a lot of local events and a few MLG's. You NEED to practise with a team for 4 to 6 hours a day for months to do anything at those events. My buddy unkowngod was tied for 4th in 7th round losers FFA at meadlowlands and probably made pro bracket 4v4. He practises a lot, and also trains his body. Your physical stamina has a direct effect on your energy and mental stamina. He used to go for runs and work out to prepare for events. It takes emence talent to be the best in the world at anything played as much as halo 2. So if it's in your best interests then you should take it seriously. I know what it would take to be pro, I've been on the brink but decided my time would be better spent doing other more productive things like getting into a good college. They don't take it to seriously because that's they're career choice. If you don't take your job seriously, then you're a half azzed slob. I'm gonna win the h2 challenge btw lol. <3 <3 <3
Good post Zach.
Yeah, at events, don't they basically play all day? I don't know about you guys, but that would drain me. Its like over-sleeping, not being terribly active for too long makes you groggy. I feel that if I took this game seriously, I could probably form a team that could do decent at lesser tournaments, like EGL, etc., but like Zach, I just feel my priorities are better spent elsewhere, as I am currently focusing a lot of my time on 1. Getting into Notre Dame, 2. Baseball, 3. Golf., 4 My job. Sure, I could maybe make small amount of money and prizes playing at local tourny's, lesser events, but I just decided not too.
