@@threedog27 leavers and afk aren't the same thing. If you leave, then your character isn't there to kill over and over again for free. And when you're a GAMER like this dude and you know the spawns, you know where that free kill is, full-time. Having an afker is a disadvantage by definition. It's a free point for the other team to keep capitalizing on. Leaving is the opposite, now there are less points to go around on one side, and in BTB, that's significant, because you can pick people off or have a higher likelihood of getting into more fair of fights whereas a leaver in a smaller slayer map will often leave you in 2v1 or more scenarios, fairly often. Less help is bad for good players too. Means less bait and less information.
@@devongee1776 Sometimes leavers can save your game and sometimes you will mess up. In BTB map controll is key. When the enemy team starts stealing your vehicles and weapons than thats it. In smaller games a leaver is also one Player less who will take a power weapon and fuck it up. I think a good player can clutch a 1v4 game. Halo is a very fair game when it comes to balancing. What sets me a bit up is the vast majority of really bad players, especially in h3. I have constantly games with mates which score a 0,1 kd and shit like this. I hope Infinite will have a better Matchmaking.
Now that was a fucking match. It didn't really matter who else was on your teams, you guys are on such a higher level it's insane. I also like that you guys have different playing styles. Gxd plays more tactical and conservative while you play very aggressive and clean. That's probably the best gameplay I've seen.
Oh, it mattered who was on which team. Faded's teammates got 23 kills combined while Fatrat's got..... 3. 3 fucking kills and probably 40+ deaths. Rat would've had a much better chance of winning if they had no teammates whatsoever
At about 2:10 into the game you insta-sploded a sticky off his frag, which is impressive on its own but if you threw your sticky because you heard his nade, that is an amazing heads-up play.
it's weird, but as a competitive pc gamer that was pretty standard. The opponent was visible on screen for several seconds and was moving at a fixed trajectory so it's super easy to put the crosshair in the right place, and if you slow down the gameplay you can see that despite that he wasn't aiming at the right place either, suggesting either lag or bullet magnetism to be responsible for the frag.
This is the best halo 3 gameplay I've ever seen. That mad rampage you went on towards the end was about as close to ultra instinct as a halo player can get.
6:55 i absolutely love how you just knew that the grenade was gonna kill him and didn't bother to confirm it would, you just tossed it and moved on to the next kill
Just in case I’m missing something, Red Team only had three players, with one of them apparently afk the entire match. Sure, Rat’s team might not have been good, but they were at least *there*, applying pressure.
@@woodybeastin They still served as active, if ineffectual, threats that took up Red Team’s collective attention, and the afk player was being regularly farmed for free kills as well.
@@jacksonscott3667 They did nothing but give the enemy team points, very few of them actually did damage, I was once playing a Swat match and my team was getting demolished, 14 to 35, I had 12 kills on my own, after all my team left the game, I was able to turn the game and won because I could kill 2 or 3 enemies for each time I died, Teammates that only died without at least help with a kill are just giving points Having said that, teammates that also distract or damage enemies are helpful, but in this case I think they were more a liability than help
That snipe at 5:10 That’s when I knew. Jk. But for real. Great seeing this. You guys are both very skilled. Big fan of both. But you were the better player in this game. Respect fatrat, respect.

the way you instantly turned the fuck on after seeing the GT and trading shots.. you knew they were serious so you naded the snipe over instead of peeking that was already a great start
It’s so hard to describe the vibe this video gives off. It’s like every time you killed one another, it was polite. It was a friendly kill saying “you’re doing great man, thanks for the fun!” If I came across someone who matched me as well as you guys matched one another, I’d feel pleased every time I got killed by them because I knew they earned it and they were making it exciting. Hope you play a lot more with this guy
That was awesome. For anyone pushing the "FatRat only feasts on noobs" narrative, go check out Gxdspeed's channel. He is one of the best players around.
Some people do, I see a lot of the same players when I play this game, just not a big enough player base anymore. You’re gonna have a bunch of casual players like me getting matched with people who play this 8 hours a day all the time haha. I don’t think he purposely “feasts” on noobs either.
I like how the guy acknowledged the trash you were stuck with lol EDIT: Also excuse me for not knowing Faded ahead of time, went to check him out, also a beast on H3
omg the sweatiness from throwing the grenade to bring the gun closer for you to pick up to running up little ledges to get every kind of advantage... fun to watch.
Two present day Halo gods, pun intended. Great game! I’d love to watch you to play together against, hell, any 8-16 man squad. Y’all are so entertaining!
I know it’s just looking at the radar but god Damn that kill at 7:20! Full track with the nade precalling where he’s going. You gotta know where you’d be going if you were the enemy on the blip, that’s some next level shit
Great Game, It looks like that was your first match and weren't warmed up until towards the end of the match. It also just sucks that you didn't have any help from your team mates.
