Shadowrun

Major League Gaming headed to Chicago and Final Boss won the first major Shadowrun LAN competition this past weekend. Registration sold out for the Shadowrun event in less than a minute. Only 16 teams were allowed to attend. The tournament took place over the course of two days with mainly Attrition gametypes being played.

Final Boss is comprised of two of the world’s best HALO 2 players in Walshy and OGRE 2. They are joined by OneEye and tournament MVP and former FASA developer eXt. The skill level of Final Boss is already beyond that of the nearest competition. While Shadowrun is a lot like a game of baseball in which any team can win, the pace at which team work and strategy evolves will determine who will shine at MLG. This team will single-handedly affect the culture of Shadowrun gameplay.
