ROSTERS:
Skillz that Killz (MLTP Season 4 SuperBall Winners):
STALIN - O
DINO - D/O
GINSENG - O
JESUS - D
SAUNUKU - D
Original Sine (Current #1 US Contenders team)
WOWSUCHPRO - O
TACKPRO - D
TOJO - O
NLFN - D
TRANE - D
LIQUID - O
-It should be noted that the 6 players on Original Sine have NO experience playing mLTP or MLTP. NONE. We hope that the Charity Ball becomes an underdog sort of match like this after every season. I mean, who hasn't asked themselves if some of the best pub players with zero experience playing in minors/majors can hang with the best of the best? This will be your answer!
-There will be two games, two 10 min halves each game (for a total of 40 mins of tagpro). Game 1 on Holy See. Game 2 on Thinking with Portals.
-This may be the most important game EVER played on Thinking with Portals (which may well be the most controversial map in Tagpro history). Original Sine has had their part in that controversy, infamously challenging some teams on TWP in US Contenders. It should be known that Original Sine has never lost a game or even a half on TWP.
And as for trash talk: it should be known that Skillz that Killz uses body wash as shampoo (as a team policy).
-Original Sine has had some experience playing MLTP stacked teams. The results of those games:
---OS vs. Inglorious Basterds (Saunuku, Dino, Swerve, The Abbott) in US Contenders on Koala:
Result: Tied 5-5
---OS vs. Never Limit Raccoons (Swingman, Raven, Spiller, LizardWizard) in US Contenders on TWP:
Result: Original Sine wins 11-6
---OS vs. Miami Heat (Harryball, Dick Licker, Mikero, yLamda) in Semifinals of 3-20 March Madness Thurs Night Tournament on Boombox:
Result: Original Sine wins 3-1
---OS vs. Thunder Cunts (Saunuku, Ginseng, AnalShipment, Noobkin) in Finals of 3-20 March Madness Thurs Night Tournament on Holy See:
Result: Original Sine wins 4-2
Soooo maybe they won't get blown out... ^but ^probably ^will.
-Also, there are exactly 40 players in pub games history (when sorted for >1000 games) that have a win % over 70%. 3 of those players play on Original Sine (WowSuchPro, Tojo, TackPro)
Trash talk #2: Skills that Killz only answers their phones when they know EXACTLY who's calling, missing out on numerous meetups and opportunities. LOSERS!
MY BET
I predict the scores:
Holy See - STK wins 49-1
TWP - OS wins 50-1
If these exact scores don't happen, I will donate $25 to tagpro.
edit: I'm also making a $5 bet that at some point in this whole process, WowSuchPro will do or say something that could be considered abrasive to others, but not to those of us who know and play with him regularly.

Original Sine all the way! I'll donate $0.50 every time someone blames something on lag.
I can't imagine this being abused...

You do realize this is Skillz that Killz we're talking about, right?
