The current #1 ranked US Contenders team, Original Sin (aka O.S., aka Original Sign, etc) DISBANDS

Hey r/Tagpro, to celebrate our life in wake of our death, we of O.S. just wanted to write a little circlejerk commemorating ourselves.

So for those of you who don't know us (or for those of you who do but want to read a brief history anyway):

USC started about a year ago. WowSuchPro had the idea to start up a team but quickly realized he didn't really know anyone (probably because he's too abrasive). So he figured he would just ask the players he saw on Radius all the time/the players he always saw at the top of the pub boards. So he asked me (TackPro), TOJO, and nlfn. That was our original 4. Then I suggested we bring in Trane since I played with him in pubs a bunch and he didn't suck (he didn't suck AT THAT TIME anyway). Then WowSuch found Liquid and thus, 6 pub scrubs had formed a team. None of us had played any real competitive tagpro at that point.

O.S. Proudest Moments

• Played 55 games total, with a record of 44-7-4

• Number 1 Ranked US Contenders team 44.6% of the time of our year in the league (including the current #1 team before disbandment)

• Owners of the longest winning streak in the history of any competitive Tagpro league (18-0-0 from 7/24/14 thru 9/24/14 until finally being beaten by Dallas Ballers Club on a center flag map)

• first won the USC title on 3/17/14 against the Pi Rollers (the longest tenured USC team, also a team we've played 7 times with a 6-0-1 record against)

• USC Champions 5 different times, with 25 defenses of the title

• Have never lost a game or even a half on Thinking With Portals.

• Founding member TOJO has a move named after him. On Thinking with Portals, when you have the flag but go into the side portal to come back to flag tile, it's called TOJO-ING.

• Came to prominence after challenging S4 champions Skillz that Killz on both Holy See & Thinking with Portals in The Charity Ball and unexpectedly winning 1-0 on Holy See. Fun fact: we raised about $250 for tagpro that night with the biggest donor being Eggy Weggs, who eventually became a member of OS.

• After all being drafted to different teams in MLTP S5, each of the final 4 teams had an OS member on it, and KGBallers had 2 (WowSuchPro on the Superball-winning Ghostboosters, TackPro on ALL CAPS, nlfn & Trane on KGBallers, TOJO on Sum of All Spheres). 3 of the original 4 members became captains for S6.

• O.S. and friends streamed pubs from time to time

• Dino was a member of O.S. for a while but left us for his lover, Stalin.

• O.S. above all else had fun and enjoyed the heck out of playing alongside one another. But we ain't sayin goodbye for good so... see ya around!
