If they don't get top 2 in Orlando, should they be looking at a team change, i mean seeing that the Ogres have never placed outside of top 2 in their career intill San Diego, if it happens again i can't see them beeing satisfied with a 3rd or 4th or even worse placing, I don't think even Final Boss placed outside of Top 2 before intill San Diego (Correct me if im wrong), So With Orlando with a little more then a Week away, If they dont show up can we be seeing someone get dropped like A Walshy or even an Ogre? Or shall be just be patient even if they don't get top 2, Final Boss are winners, So if they don't get top 2, I wouldnt be surprised if a change occured!

Thoughts?

Your crazy to think that FB would drop any teammate. That would just being like "Here, whoever wants a top 3 finish, well here's StrongSide, we don't need em'." That'd be insane. Kind of like Carbon dropping Ghandi. (wow,still) I can see FB dominating in Orlando. Even when FB get's second, they practice waaayyy more, and come back the next tourny, and bend kids ove with no lube. Plain and simple. However, watch out for tD.

They won't have a team change, they have been a dominant team for years, everyone has an off tournament / game just like in other sports.

Even if they did drop someone, I laugh at your thought of dropping one Ogre. Splitting them is like trying to use a PS3 controller on a 360, it just won't turn out well.

I don't think you could have just one Ogre on a team. Their teamwork is outstanding and no one can deny that they are not incredible players. Walshy is also a great player and as much of a coach as anything and Strongside brings that unique talent to the team. I think it would be foolish to leave such a great team just because you did bad in SD and perhaps in Orlando, although I don't envisage FInal Boss not contending for the title there. Whatever team you are on you are guaranteed to have an off tournament somewhere along the line.

I understand what you are all saying, but i mean lets just say they get 5th place in Orlando, 2 Off Tournaments in a row? i mean i dont necesarily think they should have a team change if that happens im just insisting that i wouldnt be surprised, and also your kind of right about getting rid of an ogre cuz that be weird to only have 1 ogre on a team

They had one bad tournament and maybe they will do bad in orlando, even pros have bad streaks. Dropping anyone on final boss will only affect them negatively.
They are all (individually) in the top ten of individual players. But they are numero uno in team chemistry which lets face it, separates the good and the very good.

Baaaaaaaaaaaaah
07-03-2008, 12:44 PM
They would probably just retire before changing that team.

I wouldn't worry about FB, they will be fine I am sure. Even Gretzky had off games.

07-03-2008, 12:47 PM
The Ogres, and Walshy, have been together as a team since like... Adam and Eve, or maybe even before that.

With the addition of Strongside, FB is still a dominant force. The Ogres will be on the same team for (ever?) and I doubt they would want to drop Walshy. Strongside is just amazingly skilled.

No. They will not make a roster change.

Final Boss is a dominant team and i can promise you that you will not see them do as poorly in Orlando as they did in San Diego. Something was off in San Diego and they will correct it. That is one team that i would put money on them never splitting up.

They are gonna have a tough battle in Orlando though. Teams have never looked so greatly stacked imo.

Final Boss WILL BE the final boss in Orlando! Let the spanking begin. Triggers Down is going to get SMOKED!

I predict the winners bracket finals will be Final Boss vs. Str8 Rippin
The loser's bracket finals will be Instinct vs. Triggers Down
The Championship Finals will be Final Boss vs. Triggers Down

Final Boss will SMOKE Triggers Down!


There will be no need for a team change. Final Boss is perfect the way it is. They just need to analyze other teams gameplay and learn ways to counter their setup's. Everyone is studying Final Boss's setup's so everyone is prepared for them. They just weren't prepared for everyone else last event. They will not make the same mistake twice!

Although you guys think it is out of the question for Final Boss to make a team change, it is not. Most of you have never played competitively and you don't realize that team changes on top teams happen all the time. A top 2 team will NOT settle for lower then 2nd place, and it would be in their best bet to change their roster. It's just too hard to predict who they may have to get rid of. I honestly think that the Meadowlands placings were completely off. I didn't expect Final Boss to take first, and I definitely didn't expect Classic to take 2nd. Final Boss is still a good team, but I don't know if they are still a top 2 team like they were in Halo 2. I don't want to assume that Triggers Down and Instinct are better, but they definitely seem to be really good at Halo 3.

Winner's Bracket final loser goes to loser's bracket finals.

Well done.

On topic, I don't think that doing poorly at Orlando would make them drop a teammate. Maybe doing badly at Orlando AND Toronto, that would be 3 tourneys and they might think about it then. But 2 in a row? Nah. Furthermore, I think that the REASON that they do badly is important. If 3 of them feel like the other play is under practicing (See Carbon and Gandhi), then maybe they will drop him, but if they are simply not putting in the hours as a team, switching it up probably wouldn't achieve anything.

Like in the 2006 season, when they took 2nd in Orlando, then came back in NY and bent kids over - everyone except Carbon that is, who still took first. But at least for the championship they still came back and ... took 2nd again.

The only thing I could see them doing in terms of a team change, is having Walshy become their coach, and picking up another ridiculous talent.

Not as if Walshy isn't just as good as his teammates, he just could command four guys extremely well.

i can't believe someone just suggested replacing Walshy with Hysteria. What would he have to offer? Just cuz he gets some fancy noscopes doesn't mean he would better FB's chances

OMFG, I've got to stop drinking this early!!! I'm sorry bout that. Let me re-evaluate...

Ok, hopefully the winners bracket finals will be Final Boss vs. Str8 Rippin (I would LOVE to see this matchup!)
The losers bracket, then, would be Str8 Rippin vs. Triggers Down
The Championship Finals will be Final Boss vs. Triggers Down

Yeah, I agree that if FB has 3 bad tourney's in a row that they may consider a changeup, and I'm actually kinda interested in what a team consisting of Ogre1, Ogre2, Hysteria and Roy would be like... probably dominant at Slayer and sucky at objectives... idk.

However, if FB does continue to place poorly MLG might see that as a red-flag showing that Halo 3 is, indeed, a less competitive title. Now, they wouldn't want to drop Halo 3 but, I would love to see them include Halo 2 and Halo 1 into the competition. I mean, why does it have to be only one game. How about a few games of Halo 3 (Guardian Oddball, Narrows CTF, The Pit KotH) a few games of Halo 2 (Midship Slayer, Lockout Oddball) and a few games of Halo 1 (Derelict Slayer, Hang 'Em High CTF, Damnation CTF, Chill Out Slayer, Prisoner Oddball). Then, it would be a Halo series competition not a Halo 3 competition. This would, once again, increase the skill gap, thus making it more competitive.

If Final Boss does bad, then they will keep the same roster. They wont make a team change until after the season is over. Back in 06 they wanted to drop saiyan for the lack of practice and effort he put in, but they knew they had more chemestry with him then they could build up with a new fourth in between events. Also they critized carbon for dropping strongside half way through the season for the same reason. If they make a team change it wont happen until this season is over.

wow. Please pass that chron kid. First off, no disrespect to Hysteria, but I've played against Walshy before, and what stands out about him is his rediculous smarts. He is a field general and one of the most seasoned minds in Halo. Not to jock him or anything but that is just a crazy statement.

They don't need to get rid of anyone. IMO Halo 3 leveled the playing field a bit more in retrospect to Halo 2....even for the pros. Just look at how many sick teams there are. With more emphasis on strat rather than raw skill, it's just going to be more like chess than boxing. Tactics are made to be countered with other tactics...especially with the globalization of H3 with VOD and what not. People can anaylze film like crazy now and find chinks in the armor.

Also, in H2, the no BR spread and + button glitches gave them the mix of sick skill in addition to their genius tactics. They adapt very well, and that's why IMO they are still the best. Str8 is playing lights out right now...it will be interesting. Let's not get all crazy just yet guys...there is a 1st time for everything.

wow... ive heard enough of this bulls**T, watch the frikn vod, they were OUTPLAYED, regardless of the reasons why

if they they place outside of top 2 in orlando which is very possible due to all the very tight competition, they definitely would not drop someone, theyd just practice extra intensely for the next event, i dont see how any player on that team is replaceable..

in orlando im hoping for

1. Final Boss
2. Str8 Rippin
3. Triggers Down/Team Classic
4. Carbon

Carbon will then be liek "wtf? 4th again?" then boot teh shat out of anarchy, bring back ghandi and get first the rest of the reason...

I was thinking what are all you guys saying about FB, until I realized all your join dates are 07 or later.

There is a chance FB will change the roster; there is always a chance, although it's too early to tell right now. You guys act like they will never make a team change, but what happened at the end of the 06 season? At this point, they have the best team in the league and no other team really threatens them except Str8. Unless it becomes painstakingly obvious that one player is holding back the team, nothing is changing.

And to people that have even suggested splitting the Ogres, how dumb are you? They're BROTHERS; the effect of splitting them would ripple throughout the community and would only cause, I'm assuming, familial problems for them.

If they don't get top 2 in Orlando, should they be looking at a team change, i mean seeing that the Ogres have never placed outside of top 2 in their career intill San Diego, if it happens again i can't see them beeing satisfied with a 3rd or 4th or even worse placing, I don't think even Final Boss placed outside of Top 2 before intill San Diego (Correct me if im wrong), So With Orlando with a little more then a Week away, If they dont show up can we be seeing someone get dropped like A Walshy or even an Ogre? Or shall be just be patient even if they don't get top 2, Final Boss are winners, So if they don't get top 2, I wouldnt be surprised if a change occured!

Thoughts?

It's amazing how people freak out over one bad tournament. They've been dominating the circuit for years. It would be crazy to mix up the chemistry. The Ogres might as well be attached at the hip because they aren't separating any time soon. Plus, who the hell would they pick up?!

Ive actually been thinking about this since meadows but I guess Ill share it with the community.

Seeing as how Final Boss doesnt even have a coach because Walshy is the player/coach on the team... What if Walshy was released from the team and became the Coach for Final Boss? Dont get me wrong, walshy is an awesome player and has done wonders for MLG... but maybe he is a little distracted from all of the things he has going for him now. An Example would be his clothing line, kianeto (http://www.kianeto.com). They could pick up another RAW player and with the ogre's helping and Walshy coaching him, He would turn into a beast. Just look at what they did with strongside.

Walshy will probably not do this any time soon but who knows?

(Dont flame... it's just an idea.)

They won't have a team change, they have been a dominant team for years, everyone has an off tournament / game just like in other sports.

Even if they did drop someone, I laugh at your thought of dropping one Ogre. Splitting them is like trying to use a PS3 controller on a 360, it just won't turn out well.

07-03-2008, 04:15 PM
The only reason you should ever split up that level of chemistry and loyalty is if Walshy retires and/or decides to coach FB. If he does that...and I know this sounds jacked up considering whats gone on the last event, but if I were FB I would make my roster look like this:

Ogre 1
Ogre 2
Strongside
Elamite Warrior


Thats chemistry folks....

An Example would be his clothing line, kianeto (http://www.kianeto.com). They could pick up another RAW player and with the ogre's helping and Walshy coaching him, He would turn into a beast. Just look at what they did with strongside.

Walshy will probably not do this any time soon but who knows?

(Dont flame... it's just an idea.)

actually i could see this being a big plus for fb i never thought of it this way but if they did it i think itd be great for them

Your crazy to think that FB would drop any teammate. That would just being like "Here, whoever wants a top 3 finish, well here's StrongSide, we don't need em'." That'd be insane. Kind of like Carbon dropping Ghandi. (wow,still) I can see FB dominating in Orlando. Even when FB get's second, they practice waaayyy more, and come back the next tourny, and bend kids ove with no lube. Plain and simple. However, watch out for tD.
Basically what i am thinking. Maybe without the last sentences lol.

The following is an OPINION...

Personally, I believe that if they were to look for a better person than Walshy, they would be much more dominant. Sure, Walshy was BEAST in Halo 2, but this is not Halo 2. If I were to change something about FB it would be replacing Walshy and Ogre 1. Ogre one just doesn't seem as up to par as he was in Halo 2, and Walshy, well, I don't see him getting any better individually. Sure, he may be able to BR here and there and know strategy, but it seems like he would make a better coach than player. If Walshy became FBs coach, not only would they have a great strategist on their side, but possibly somebody else who can execute call outs and strategies better. It just seems like Walshy's skill is declining while others' are getting better.

That is just my opinion.

No one on Final Boss is going to get dropped, quit, or anything. If you think Walshys skill is declining thats wrong. If you put in hundreds of hours of practice how are you going to get worse? Your not that's how Walshy is going to get better along with Ogre 1. Ogre 1 had a off tourney did you not see what he did at ML? from what i saw was a MVP performance. neither one of them will be dropped. Ogre 2 is a man beat and strongside is unkillable. You people are stupid for thinking that they will break apart this early in the halo 3 era. They are the greatest team of alltime and it will remain that way when the win orlando because the land with tD sure isn't going to hurt them.

07-03-2008, 05:05 PM
I don't believe FB will drop anyone unless they have the same problem like they did with Saiyan, and they dropped him because of him being undedicated and not really caring. The only person I think could be dropped on FB is Ogre 1 and that's only because he started practicing later then the others, but the chances of that are so fcking slim. My point is, unless they keep getting bad placings the whole season they'll never drop a teammate.. and if they did for who?


- Go watch the vod of walshys POV against Believe the hype, he does amazing on onslaught clutching everything but they still lose, on construct he chokes and gets so unlucky, he dies way to many times... if things would have just been a little better for the overall team they could have won that series.

Final Boss wont win Orlando, and IF they drop anyone, it will be Strongside that gets dropped.

Here comes all the Strongside fanboys to yell at me. :o



Strongside will not be dropped for sure. Why would you say that he is easily one of the best players in the league and like someone said they are more likely to retire than switch up the team. They just had an off tournament its fine everyone does.

Gunners-Alive
07-03-2008, 05:39 PM
Walshy has strategies and gets the objective.
Ogre 2 helps with the objective and snipes.
Ogre 1 is a sneaky beaver.
Strongside does everything else.

its hard to see any of them being dropped. i mean, if anyone was to be dropped, it would be strongside. Strongside! i don't see it happening. with that said, i think theyre definitely not THE team they were in h2. i think the changing of the game has made the biggest difference in their success.

07-03-2008, 05:51 PM
They won't have a team change, they have been a dominant team for years, everyone has an off tournament / game just like in other sports.

Even if they did drop someone, I laugh at your thought of dropping one Ogre. Splitting them is like trying to use a PS3 controller on a 360, it just won't turn out well.
even if the ogres split up Ogre 2 will still be Nasty no matter where hes at

AO Piggystyle
07-03-2008, 05:57 PM
I think they'd be foolish to drop anyone, there chemistry is great and that of course leads to better teamwork. And while anything is possible, that is IMPROBABLE. If they drop anyone Final Boss wouldn't be Final Boss..

I like how you say this because you seem to forget th original final boss where they had the "perfect" player setup 2 slays (ogres) the objective (walshy) n the support (saiyan) They were dominant then 2 and then strongside gets added then every 1 was like wtf where did saiya go wow wtf then every1 loves strongside n now ev1 is like ooo no they cant drop him hes so good blah blah hell i wouldnt be surprised if walsh calls up Snipedown "the next up n coming superstar" he would seem like the next "strongside" that would come in to replace the actual strongside's position. u feel me? cuz siayan made ppl actually NOTICE what assists were n how they actually affect the game n made every1 who played like tht say "oo yea well im known as a "support" player i went neg 2 with 50 assists i did amazing" type thing all im sayin is the is always the next influential player tht is tryin to come up in the game and mr cavanaugh might not be as safe as he might think he is when a team change is order they dropped a great player to get him n they can drop him and replace him just as easy

07-03-2008, 06:18 PM
They wont ever have a team change. First off Walshy for one has the best knowledge of the game. Second Strongside is the best individual Halo 3 player. Third the ogre brothers are beasts and walshy and them have been togeather for a long time.


the only team change they have ever had is when they droped the gabage kid sayian who cant even go pro in halo3 the only reason he was pro in h2 because walshy and the ogres carried his ass so bad.

Okay one who would replace anyone on Final Boss and two i think that they have bonded enough to where they wouldn't just break up.

As much as i hate to say it FB will be back in the next tournament.

You can't have a successful team by just assuming someone else is the problem, and just getting rid of them... Being a team is about finding four players who have great chemistry and working together to be the best they can be... You can't just drop someone and hope it turns out better. Final Boss isn't stupid, and they won't drop one of their own unless there was a real problem (As there was with Saiyan). They'll try to find what their problem was, and they'll try to fix it. Don't count Final Boss out just because they had one bad tournament.

Without reading the topic (sorry, but I already know it's way too many pages of filth to look through)...

Changing their line-up without really giving it one more good go is the worst thing they could do. By changing your line-up, you essentially say "This arrangement here can never work again" and then just give up. Besides their early H2 and H:CE runs with Saiyan, they've been the most dominant Halo force out there (sorry Str8 fans, but Str8 hasn't won a national title without dropping a single game yet) and they have arguably the best team slayers (Ogres), the best strategist (Walshy), and the best pure slayer (Strongside) playing together.

There's so much talent in H3 right now that pretty much anybody in the Top 6 (Str8, Instinct, FB, Carbon, tD, Classic) has a shot at a Top 2 and could even make a run for Top 1. What if a couple more of those guys show up harder than Final Boss does and take Top 2? It's a good possibility considering how much Carbon has to prove, how hot Str8 is right now, and how much hungrier Classic, Instinct, and tD's team changes made them. Why should Final Boss even consider doing it different if they place 3rd and not 2nd or 1st?

I think you mean since Halo3 doesn't require much skill/talent at all to begin with. Har har.

Seriously, take Final Boss, and put them in a match against ANY team in Halo CE, a game which actually takes skill to be on top (Sorry BTH fans). Final Boss dominated in Halo CE and Halo 2 because those actually took skill (CE more than 2).

I'll tell you what, if anything happens to Final Boss' setup I will probably stop watching the MLG Halo competitions! (unless Str8 and Carbon do well) They are great just the way they are now and nothing should ever be changed. They are playing a new game that has game films where you can go and analyze everyone's setup's now. People are going to focus on preparing to battle them and they made the mistake of not preparing to battle other teams. They will not make the same mistake twice!

If they don't get top 2 in Orlando, should they be looking at a team change, i mean seeing that the Ogres have never placed outside of top 2 in their career intill San Diego, if it happens again i can't see them beeing satisfied with a 3rd or 4th or even worse placing, I don't think even Final Boss placed outside of Top 2 before intill San Diego (Correct me if im wrong), So With Orlando with a little more then a Week away, If they dont show up can we be seeing someone get dropped like A Walshy or even an Ogre? Or shall be just be patient even if they don't get top 2, Final Boss are winners, So if they don't get top 2, I wouldnt be surprised if a change occured!

Thoughts?

They will win Orlando. Any ways, who would they drop? I cant imagine a team without Walsh, or any of the other FB members. No they will not drop someone

Since we are already jumping on the "FB is bad" bandwagon

after they drop Walshy they pick up Snip3down (after he's done with str8, carbon, and classic, that is).


Seriously folks, the only change that could ever occur is the chance of Walshy becoming a coach, but then who are they suppost to pick up? Elamite leaving str8 at this point is laughable. Too many people are jumping on the "lost one event therefore their terrible" bandwagon.

Guys, just because they failed to win or come top 2 in a tournament doesnt mean they are gonna suck now or they are gonnna switch players. Any person or team that was successful in what they do had failed at one time or another in order to succeed. That is why FB always comes out strong the next tourney after a loss b/c they are true winners. A quote i like to use alot is 'Failure is not the opposite of success, it is a part of it.' B/c when u fail, true winners (like FB ) learn from those mistakes they made and correct them. unlike what alot of teams do. Instead they argue and point figures at teammates and never focus on what they couldn't done to help the situation. Resulting in loads of team change. and possible lost of friendships

I've been dyign to break out this point for awhile. If H1 had XBL, I know XBC works fine although it is a pain in my ass, more people would be playing better people and getting better. The problem is that, take me for example; I live in Plattsburgh, New York. I can play with the best in Plattsburgh. I can LAN every Saturday until the release of H2. I'm still playing the best in one small town/county of a state in a large country.I'm not going to be the best by sitting in my living room. That is why the skill gap in H1 is so high between pros and Locals. In H3 the skill gap between pros and 50s is a bit slimmer do to the fact that soeone can reap so much experience out of jsut sitting in there living room, learning what the kids are doing, playing against all sorts of different people.

The only thing I could see them doing in terms of a team change, is having Walshy become their coach, and picking up another ridiculous talent.

Not as if Walshy isn't just as good as his teammates, he just could command four guys extremely well.

I have been wondering about this for a while... It seems like the only possible change that could happen if anything (even though there won't be anything). I think it would throw their teamwork off too much. The ogres listen to Walshy's callouts a lot, and moving him might hurt that.

Also, check my sig for a laugh :-o

San Diego wasn't a fluke, after Meadows they prolly thought that they didn't really have to try or practice, and that screwed them over in San Diego. Orlando is gonna be different b/c they've prolly thought about what happened and are going to try and destroy there. But the thing is, a lot of good/ better teams are out there(i.e. Str8, tD, Instinct, Cbn) that can and might just beast them to that top 2-4 spot.

Kind of like Carbon dropping Ghandi. (wow,still) I can see FB dominating in Orlando. Even when FB get's second, they practice waaayyy more, and come back the next tourny, and bend kids ove with no lube. Plain and simple. However, watch out for tD.

If you read Karma and Ghostayame's blogs, you'd understand why they dropped Gandhi. It's only shocking from the media standpoint.

The Championship Finals will be Final Boss vs. Triggers Down

Final Boss will SMOKE Triggers Down!


There will be no need for a team change. Final Boss is perfect the way it is. They just need to analyze other teams gameplay and learn ways to counter their setup's. Everyone is studying Final Boss's setup's so everyone is prepared for them. They just weren't prepared for everyone else last event. They will not make the same mistake twice!

Whered you come up with that prediction from? oh.. the top 4 seeded teams.. right.

idk why everyone is doubting FB so much after justone tourney. Come on ppl its a new game, they're working out the kinks. its so disapointing how everyone was a FB fan, and they get 7th and now ppll are jumping on the Snipedown bandwagon. Wheres your faith. and imean come on!! only two tourneys have been held so calm down off that FB's not as dominant BS yo.

Final Boss is the most dominant team in Halo history. I have been a fan Walshy/Ogres and Saiyan/Strongside since I first knew about MLG, a truly diehard fan.

However, no one thought that Saiyan would be dropped from Final Boss (or whatever, 3D, StK), and I personally knew Saiyan would be dropped a good few months before Saiyan was officially dropped from the team. Lets just say a very reliable source told me and trusted me to not tell the MLG community, and I didn't. (And no it was not one of the team members) However I couldn't help but notice all the threads asking 'Will Saiyan Be Dropped?' and all the people commenting them i.e. 'No you retard Saiyan will never be dropped from FB/StK/3D'

I'm not saying I know FB will make a team change, but honestly think about it for a second. FB has spent so much time and has been so dedicated to Halo for a long time now. They are getting older/more mature, and I'm sure they've gotten in their fair share of Halo. I'm not saying if they place bad in Orlando all of the sudden FB will break up, but a break up/retirement is inevitable in the future. I'm sure right now they are preparing pretty hard for Orlando and to prove themselves once again, but nothing is for certain.

I have been honestly thinking about a FB team change for a while now, just as random thoughts in my head, and I just want to say that nothing is for certain.

I might get neg rep'd for this (speaking my opinion), but as a long time supporter/follower of FB I believe I have a right to speak my mind.

And FYI, I don't want FB to split up by any means, I love the team.

Very well put. I hope they stay together though and personally i think they'll come out on top in Orlando.

Sadly, I do not see Final Boss winning Orlando, with all the big team changes that occured just after San Diego, it will be either Str8, tD, Instinct or Classic that will end up winning. I also see Carbon may be able to reach to 5 this tournament.

I don't think they'd make a team change, because I don't know who you could pick up to put in one of their place that's better than one of the four existing members.

Final Boss wont win Orlando, and IF they drop anyone, it will be Strongside that gets dropped.

Here comes all the Strongside fanboys to yell at me. :o

It could be Strongside and Walshy? Walshy for sure has to quit playing if they don't place top 4. I don't follow teams enough to know if strongside is doing bad. Walshy has clearly dropped his game in Halo 3

They just have to find a rising star that fits the role and invite him to FB. It is FB for god sake. Most anyone below a top 6 team would quit their team for FB.

fb has always been a dominating team. they will be on top again especially now that they see there is competition. all that fb needed was a push.
