Subject: Need to practice for a tournament!

I'm sure you've all heard the story... "I used to be sooo good at Halo, but I suck at Halo: Reach." Well, that's my story too.

I have a bit of a reputation where I live, and so a friend asked me to play on his team for a tournament this weekend. The only problem is, I hardly play Reach any more, and only have a few days to improve.

I was wondering if anyone would be interested in being a Halo: Reach personal trainer? OR, since that is sort of asking alot, if anyone had any friendly advice to offer. Thanks, guys!

Its reach, you're going to some local tournament with a bunch of nobodies, there's nothing you need to practice to dump on a bunch of retards.

My friends brother is entering the contest as well. Haha. So it's only his team I'm worried about. I also want to make sure I can keep up with my team mates(They play every stinkin' day.) Alsooo... the prize is money. So if someone helped me train, perhaps there would be a reward in order. >_>

"In Halo 3 not all 50's were good players, but all good players were 50's."

Your opinion is invalid.

How good are you right now?

I know! I just want to play now, Now NOW! But that's actually excellent advice. Thank you, sir. <3

why do I get the feeling you're grifting for training. this tournament story just doesn't sound convincing to me.

if you want help you should just ask honestly, and if you're not too prickish you should receive. I think the bastards in this forum actually have some sort of 'club try hard' or something


...or maybe I'm just way too cynical. what's the tournament prize? $50?

Every single pummel I have is unboosted.
I play GGL. (Grifball)
I hit inheritor 14/1/12. 16 months after release. I have a life fellas.
Every single killionaire I have is unboosted. 22 from grifball, 4 from LD.

Fixed, and ain't it coincidental that the Good Games League (Grifball league) started this week.

Oh, well I stand informed now. His team will be like the mighty ducks or something then.

  • 02.09.2012 2:17 AM PDT

Haha, I'm not lying. I swear. I have no reason to lie about a game... I honestly have no idea how much the cash prize is. I don't have alot of details. I was just asked today via facebook with minimal details. I believe the prize is just everyone's entrance fees.

And you want the honestly honest story? All B.S. aside? The truth is, I'm really nervous about playing just as good if not BETTER than my team because normally when I see females at Halo tournaments, they generally play poorly and are obviously there for reasons other than competing in Halo... I want to show my podunk little town that girls do more than make samiches >_>

Alright well don't get carried away, use your head and back up the best player on your team. Relax, play smart, smile and keep your dignity if you really want to prove some kind of point.

Still using a pump-action shotgun over 500 years in the future I see.

omg not realistic stop game production plz

I guess I could help you at some point, but I don't have bags of time. GT: Dark Typhoon

However, it is imperative that if you want a more solid chance, you're just going to have to take your team, go into Team Slayer and rack up some games.

Find out your team's strengths/weaknesses too; who's proficient with the Sniper? Who provides the best DMR suppport? Who's good at claiming the power weapons on a map? These are things you have to know. Don't forget to work on some map movement too; I remember back in Halo 3 games, you had to have a good start in terms of movement (who on your team went where) or you'd be in trouble.

I'm not seeing where you used to be good.

I wish I had a tourney around where I live. I'd easily place first.


Not where I live, there's a bunch of sweaty neckbeard tryhards where I live. I'd place top 32 at a local tourny.

Exactly there isn't any really good people in my area.

"I may not be perfect, but always been true."

Evil twin, why are you requesting help in the Reach forums? you could ask me for help! Oh wait.....I would do all the job then.
