Home > Active Rushingly To Chicago
By DyNoMiKe | Published: September 1, 2007 3:43pm EST

Alright well I haven't blogged in a while so I decided to say I left PainX on good terms after dallas and joined the team Active Rush going into Chicago. Chicago was a great event for many reasons, Active Rush went in as the underdogs against H2K, RoC, and Xit Woundz and we were able to come out on top! So let me give you a rundown of what happened because I typed a longgggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggg blog that was about 9-10 paragraphs long that I tryed submitting only to realize I wasn't logged in and for it to say "you are unable to submit this," and for all of it to GET DELETED OMGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG. IT WENT THROUGH EVERY DETAILLLLLLLLLLLLLL TOOOOOOOOOOOOOO OMGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG

 

anyways we played H2K WB round 1 and 3-0'd them, going in as underdogs as MLG had already posted the poll, "Who's going to win H2K or FB!!!" So, I found that pretty funny. So we go into WB Round 2 to play against Final Boss and for many reasons I wanted to take a game off of them REALLY bad. One reason was It was finally my chance to play against my sort of "role model" in the halo world in Dave "Clawshy" Walsh. The guy I got to play side to side in Pro FFA at Anaheim 06, and i thought it was pretty cool that he played without his shoes on and clawed like I did! Very nerdy I know, but I thought it was cool at the time you know haha. So to finally play AGAINST him and the final boss dynasty, it was a great feeling. To me this was the same as playing hockey side by side with Mario Lemiux, respectively my role model in hockey my whole life ya know? Walsh is a halo player I respect because he does a lot of objective and isn't afraid of doing the dirty work that needs to be done in order for his team to win games So I was pretty stoked to be finally playing against him. Enough of my rant I guess! So we play Final Boss in Game 1 Warlock CTF to find out we were outslaying them, but they were still capping flags with 2-3 people dead? It was really weird! Than we played them in Lockout TS to lose 50-21 getting destroyed by the Walsh S1 and Strongside Blue 2 combo. It was impossible to kill them!!!!!!!! anyways we play midship ball to lose by 2 minutes or so, but being able to outslay them. It felt like I was playing a different final boss I had ever seen play on VoD. Like they were playing the objective perfectly instead of slaying everything in sight than only walsh doing objective ya know? anyways we got sent to the LB and played RoC for top 16, 3-0'd them than went to bed.

 

We woke up, showered warmed up with type-z than got called to mainstage against Xit Woundz. Now I have a lot of respect for xit woundz so a lot of my trash talk wasn't meant purposely. I actually think omega is an amazing supportive player, but just didn't fit that team to begin with. Anyways we won games 1 & 2 of Midship CTF and Midship TS than lost game 3 with me and killer N doing similar stats like 15-29 with 1:59 of ball time each or something. Than hearing bonfire say "Hey Dynomike nice kills!"

Now you should know that in the 06 season I talked a lot of trash on lan, I mean a LOT to any team we played. Like it got to the point where I was friends with chaosdaninja for a while then played his team at anaheim 06 and after the event he removed me/blocked me and never talked to me again. So.......yeaaaaaa anyways I stopped talking trash on lan after Charlotte where I got my team a Technical against Check your pulse and lost host all games against Dookie blasters! So ever since then I haven't trash talked since. But hearing those words from bonfire fueled me to talk so much trash, I regret saying all the stuff I said but it seemed to work as bonfire I think did really bad game 4 sanctuary CTF!

Anyways, we went on to play Carbon afterwards for top 8 and I REALLY wanted to win, I knew if we won we'd have a good chance at top 4. As we would have to play Versus for top 6 and 5K for top 4 and it would of been very intimidating to play a team who had just beaten Carbon. Anyways we gave up a fight in middy bomb which I recommend you should watch on our VoD's, but ended up losing. Then we played sanctuary Ts and were up by about 40-30 and ended up losing the game :-(. very demoralizing. Than we got owned pretty bad on lockout ball! Anyways we beat t2p and icon in consolation to get 9th.

 

Had fun meeting everyone I did at chicago, won't give you guys all shout-outs because you know who you are! But i definitely have to give love to Mini-Naded lancer, P2 Slobby McSlob Slob Gexny, the nicest guy in the world ICEVAYNE! and the best coach I've ever had in Adam a.k.a VxIxRxGxIxN. We'll be practicing a lot coming up to orlando, and hopefully the brackets give us a lucky break this time!

See you all at Orlando!
