3s is definately doable. I personally haven't played it seriously, but I run about .500 when just doing 10 games for points. I could definately do better. A lot of my loses are from stupid mistakes from lack of experience playing against certain combinations.
3v3 is definitely viable, but youve gotta get the first nuke off, ive played with a few diff combos and from what i have seen miss the nuke at the start and its almost impossible to recover, i played 3s with fire mage, ele shaman and disc priest, and about 75% of the time me and the mage got the nuke off and killed their first guy, leading to a win. hardest groups we had to fight were pally, pally, shaman, and rogue druid pally.
Sorry for the bump, but I can't help to to chime in on this. ><Quote:

As somebody who got into the MLG/competitive Halo scene about 5 years ago... I can tell you the face of MLG has changed drastically. It may just be the nostalgia of it, but at my first MLG tournament everybody was there as a gamer.. not as an E-Celebrity signing autographs. As for the dropping out of school bit, you can thank THIS GUY. He dropped out of High School to play competitive Halo, while his larger grossing rivals of one of the other top Halo teams are making 5 times as much money and are finishing college. But these kids don't see that. The very last MLG tournament I attended was in Vegas of '06. This was the last in a series of tournaments aired on USA. They hired local kids to sit in the stands to look good for the camera, and all of the regular MLG attendee's had to sit cramped the entire time be a spectator. After the finals, myself and a group of friends tried to get going to beat the traffic, and were stopped by the crew because they "weren't done filming". They physically would not let us by to leave. We were all so furious.
I'm all about competitive gaming, and I've long been active in competitive FPS (both console and PC). There's a point within "E-Sports" where it goes too far. This is somewhere between standing in line to get an autograph and having the players run through a smoke machine and strobe lights to their consoles.
