Hello, old friend
RevolutioN, an old face on the EU MGO clan scene, seems to have returned again (New Years ReVolutioN) Joke here) with a lineup (so far) that includes RM-11, !! RAGE !!, DaRK*MaRTiN and Samsterw. Given the small size of the clan so far, I’m not sure whether this will be a permanent return, although hopefully it will be as this should mean we see lots of clan battles!
Fatality, led by ex 2TM and PBO player MeteoraX was one of the few completely clean clans left in recent months and was comprised mostly of ex-2TM, DoomsDayLegion and DeathRainsDown players . While it was a very active clan, it had always suffered from periodic low numbers, although it still managed to compete in several clan battles(PoM1, PoM2, DrD). However, for compound reasons on the 6th of January, 2010, Fatality disbanded. Out of the ashes of Fatality came a new clan, Skys The Limit, led by FUTUREace (and including –Phantom-, DAEFRY and Half Light among others) and precipitated the return of an old face…
(Fatality alumnus: MeteoraX, Fischer, M.$nake, Solid007, Manu sp, XTREMESNAKE, xFrontLine, Tauro, Red Eight 8, El Unicox, +Blaze+, JulianSnake)
To The Max, widely considered by many to be EUs top clan, returned the next day. After a few months of inactivity, many of the former players who helped to shape the top clan were returning. The clan, known now as To The Maxímum following the sale of the original clan name, includes leader N00B, Solid007, The WhiteMantis, REDWINGS, M.$nake, «F¢rarrï» and Bobby ^_^ among newer faces such as Snake90, LoicSnakeKruspe (JulianSnake) and theblackfox. It has been reported that ex leader C4RNIF3X/Zzzonked and flyboy95 will be returning soon. The news was met with excitement, both by the players and the scene in general
I for one like many used to hate that 2TM were untouchable for all but the best clans on the game.
But now i would sooner see 2TM dominate again, and pwn every team just so the lagswitchers don't get there way
anyways, i always liked 2tm, good luck
2TM haven’t always been the cleanest of clans, with past recruitment of notorius glitcher xXTELEPORTXx, accusations of using NetTools to lag, and use of deathlooping before it was “fixed”, and in the announcement of it’s return, Solid007 said
Some of us probs will get a LS to glitch glitchers out. We wont glitch legit teams
This was roundly criticised, for being unnecessary and leading down a dark path
You'll do this, then glitch legit teams that lag really baad, then glitch like darkliquid.
To The Max will then become a joke
thats what they all say and then they end up glitching every1 and makeing an excuse saying that they lag or they called you a noob.
what [Solid007) said was wrong.We won't get a lagswitcher in 2tm, And tbh if this would happen im the first guy who leaves 2tm,because the clan would'nt be clean anymore.
Whether or not these prophecies will be fulfilled is yet to be seen, although if kept on a leash under N00Bs leadership, perhaps the fine (for some nonexistent) line between counterglitching and glitching won’t be stepped;
IF someone would get LS in 2TM he would only use it against players like teleport etc. but if they would glitch some regular lagging
noobs I would kick em and block em
In the end strong roster, respected leader and host of old faces and general community support means that this incarnation of 2TM looks set to last. While there may be pressure put on by the arrival of strong clans in the past few months as well as by the continued proliferation of glitchers, I hope that 2TMs return could spark a revival of their long term rival PBO- remember rivalries help forge stable clans.
Hello, new enemy
The NA MGO community was left reeling, and the EU MGO Community left celebrating, after news of a series of small scrims between top EU (RevolutioN’s !! RAGE !! and DrD/ Fatality’s Tauro) and NA (Mind Games’ <<ThunderBoltz>> and A black guy and Aliens’ BIGGESTBOSS) players;
- BIGGESTBOSS vs Tauro
BB TDM 2-0 to Tauro
BB CAP 2-0 to Tauro
- <<ThunderBoltz>> and A black guy vs !! RAGE !! and Tauro
BB CAP 2-0 to !! RAGE !! and Tauro
The results came as a surprise to many, as NA have long considered themselves rather arrogantly to be the most skilled server, and with <<ThunderBoltz>> and A black guy being long term members of the best NA clan, Mind Games, while Tauro and !! RAGE !! were not. Unfortunately despite the generally friendly and cordial match, the complaints and excuses came out rather quickly (admittedly only from one player, the other NA players were gracious in defeat, and the EU players magnanimous in victory)
I got raped due to lag.
How do you expect us to win when I have red ping and a broken controller?
However, moment ruining as they are, ABGs words do contain a pinch of truth- everybody was lagging (the game was being hosted on the JP game, by an NA player), and hopefully the moaning that results from the clash of egos and moaning wont tarnish what could turn out to be a fruitful rivalry between the top NA and JP players. For now we should congratulate Tauro and !! RAGE !! for being good envoys to NA, and finally making them sit up and take us seriously. To end on a positive not, here's some quotes about the matches
in all sensuousness he's pretty good, there was lag, but nothing big really.
It was a fun game in the end & EU has bragging rights
Wp Tauro. Nice to see no bullshit talkin at the end. good sportmans ship. Keep reppin us Tauro. Thunderbolt and ABG faught 1 of our finest players !! RAGE !! so watchout 4 that peeps
well fucking played Rage, you'll have turned a few NA heads tonight.
BB's thread looking for 1v1s was respectful, there were no insults to EU players, and he gave solid reasons for why he is a decent player. He didn't say he was NA's best, he just said he'd try and see how it went. The bloke seems like a genuinely nice bloke,
Yeah, we can't really settle this feud on equal footing unless we're all in the same area
I'm glad i 1v1d some you like you, one of the rare people now & days with common sense . We should do it again some time
Just a side note, EU Survival servers are located in the US, and most players are used to the lag that we get from that. A game hosted in on the East Coast of the US by somebody with a very strong connection is probably the closest we’re going to get to “equal footing”, since it will be near perfect for the NA players and similar to what we’re used to for the EU players.
