MLG's first Pro Circuit stop north of the border was a smashing success. Paired with the Fan Expo, MLG Toronto saw the best Halo 3 gamers from all over North America battle it out for prize money, respect, and bragging rights. At the end of the weekend, we saw the first multi event winner in Halo 3 history, the first player to win two consecutive events in the 2008 Season, and some of the most anticipated grudge matches in MLG history.

Puckett set the stage for an event filled weekend.

Although this weekend produced more expected results, based on the first three events of the year, this in itself was unexpected. This was the first time in Halo 3 competition that the Top 4 seeded teams all advanced to the Winners Bracket Semi-Finals. Perhaps this can be attributed to the level of preparation by these teams prior to the event, or perhaps it means the game has now evolved to the point at which a more definitive skill gap is beginning to form at the top ranks. It's also possible that the latest wave of team changes have put the competition in a more stable balance. Certainly the pressure of attaining one of the seven guaranteed National Championship spots forced the best teams to step up their game, as no one wants to be outside looking in at the end of the season.
