Outside of the very competitive world of advertising, I also compete in the competitive world of video games. While I’ve competed at a high level in Pokémon, Yu-Gi-Oh and Call of Duty, my greatest accolades lie in a little, old game called Halo.
Halo 5
To make matters worse, NZ has notoriously bad internet when versing the rest of the world. But mumma didn’t raise no quitter - mumma raised a competitive freak.
After grinding to become the #1 player in NZ, I went for the #1 spot in the world. After much wailing and gnashing of thumbsticks, I reached #4. Not too shabby, out of 15 million players.
Scoring a 10-person multikill against China’s #1 player & Germany’s #1 players.
Yep, that’s me at #6. Technically, 2 & 3 were glitches, so I was actually 4th. But who’s counting...
Don’t lag and fly, kids.
Yeah, awards are cool. But have you ever made a Twitch Streamer audibly crash out when they found you in a game?
This is the current world record for the shortest 12v12 in Halo history. I get outside more these days.
