Your point?
Wouldn't something like Octagon be better?


Then you're only looking at aiming ability instead of other factors of skill.
Aiming, strafing, all the basics of the occasional 1v1 you'd have in a team game. I don't see what else you could judge in a 1v1.


Awareness, route running, and knowledge of the spawn system are all factors that come to mind.

Awareness, route running, and knowledge of the spawn system.
1. Only awareness needed on a map with power weapons and an area to hold is awareness of where your enemy is on the radar.

2. Not sure what you mean by this. Do you mean running different areas to check for your enemy?

3. How could you predict spawns in a 1v1 on any of those maps? Seems to me like spawning would be kinda up in the air.

Foreigners (not from USA/Canada) who pull host will not be tolerated.


I have no problem with what you're offering, but you're over looking that if you don't host, you won't play, but if you host, they're in the position you refuse to be. It wouldn't be fair. You can't claim to be the best on the forums if you only play as host.

(Only referring to hosts in other countries to you that don't have green)

1. There's no radar.

2. If you don't know what route running is then you should probably just take what I say as the word of god when it comes to Halo.

MLG zealot, pit, or oasis is much better for 1v1s IMO

staying at the other persons pea shooter for the entire game is pretty boring.


Lol at the pit 1v1s. If you know what you are doing and you get the first set of rockets you can 15-0 the other person without trying hard at all.

zealot and sanc are prolly the best 1v1 maps.
I personally don't like sanc too much, because it is all about your sniper. I am a pretty good player, but my sniper isn't really the best.

3. Lol
1. Didn't know that.

2. If you can't explain route running then I'm going to assume my definition is correct, which would mean I DO know what "route running" is. I've always heard it called patrolling.

3. I've never been good a spawn predicting, besides the basic "he's somewhere on that side" knowledge.

Walk by faith. Dude. Not by sight.

How about 1v2 if we are unskilled?

  • 11.01.2011 3:27 PM PDT

I'm about as slightly above average as you can get.

I'm not gonna play, but why don't you 1v1 on nexus? I played it, not bad.

  • 11.01.2011 3:32 PM PDT
