B.U.R.N. Season 2 Round 4 Video and Writeup.

This month's B.U.R.N. came and went, and as always, I had a blast, even though I was only able to make it for the second half of the day. When I showed up I saw that it was a slightly smaller day, with around sixteen people, but that didn't detract from the games at all. It actually made getting tagged more punishing than it usually is. With the smaller teams every person really counted, so this enabled there to be a couple faceroll games where one team just got smashed in about a minute and the opening converted into a flag capture.

I decided to be one of the pack today and run my Elite Alpha Trooper, mostly because I changed the white stripes to orange and put a gear up raider stock on so I was really liking how it looked. I understand why everyone loves this blaster so much, but I was definitely missing the explosive power of the Magstrikes when people were base rushing. That said I the Elite Alpha Trooper really is a greatly flexible blaster.

My team did have a bit of a derp moment that gave us a good laugh. We had a solid push and cleared what we thought was all of the opposing team, so we grabbed the flag and booked it back to base, already celebrating our victory. That is until we got back to our base and realized our flag was gone and we had just traded flags. Of course we were promptly smashed by the respawning other team and they took their flag back for the victory.

I guess it's time for a video now isn't it?  A bit different from the last ones, it's all in first person, so let me know what you guys think!

EAT Giveaway Results!

As those of you who entered know, the contest deadline came and passed last Friday night, and with that, we had a winner.






Congratulations to Chase, I hope you enjoy it! Thank you to everyone else who entered, and sorry to those who didn't win, I hope you can find them at Targets now that they should be on shelves and hopefully restocked.

On another note, I've got a few videos in the works for once I'm feeling 100% again, so I'm looking forward to pushing out content on here and on my YouTube. Thanks again everyone!

Elite Alpha Trooper Giveaway!

With everyone seeming to get their hands on EAT's, I felt like for those who have been unable to find them at their targets should have a chance at one as well. That's why I'm doing a giveaway for one Elite Alpha Trooper. All you need to do is leave a comment on this post, and next Friday, May 10th, 11:59 PST, I'll pick a winner at random, contact them via google+ or youtube and ship one to them. It's just that simple, commenting on the youtube video and subscribing to the channel will net you an extra entry as well.




I thought I'd do a quick range test before work since I wanted to play with my EAT for a bit. The results weren't bad, shots averaged around the mid 50's, with some shots bouncing off the wall. This is by no means comprehensive, I just wanted to show that I do have them, so that people wouldn't be worried about this not being legitimate. I plan on having a full review up of the EAT by early next week.

Recap of Requirements for Giveaway -
- Live in the USA (sorry, shipping costs)
- Comment on this post, or subscribe to my youtube channel and comment on the giveaway video.
- You may do both for 2 entries.
- Winner will be picked at 11:59pm PST Friday May 10th and contacted shortly after. If I do not hear back from you in 2 days time, I will pick a new winner.

Check back for updates!

Good luck!
