Most of you know that I've been on the competitive scene for quite awhile. I've always been a big supporter of the MLG (Major League Gaming) circuit and have attended several tour stops.

Last weekend I was in Dallas for MLG Dallas, the final tour stop before the championship finals in Las Vegas in November. Hopefully a lot of you were watching the live streaming video (if not you can find replays of the matches on their Video On Demand service) and you noticed that there was a GameSpot logo in attendance.

GameSpot was able to sponsor Triggers Down for MLG Dallas and the team did NOT disappoint! Triggers Down was knocked into the losers bracket on day 3 and fought their way to the final match on the main stage Sunday night. After playing Halo3 for nearly 4 hours straight (with a bathroom break for Hysteria in the middle of the matches) Triggers Down took the series to 11 games and ended up winning over Str8 Rippin.

For anyone that's unfamiliar with how the championship game is played - the team that takes the best of 5 wins the series. If the winning team gets 3 games in the first series, that's it, it's over. BUT if the losing team comes in and take the first series, there's a second series to be played (because they lost earlier). Again, it's first to 5.

This is the second tour stop that Triggers Down has won this season (the first tour stop they won was Orlando). The next and final tour stop is in Vegas in November. Good luck to SK, Karma, FearItSelf, and Hysteria who compose the team Triggers Down!
