Genesis Rider

Summary: Competitive-minded and consistent Halo player since Halo 3. Xbox Live Gold member for 10+ years. Xbox Insider for 4+ years. Head Recruitment Officer for ExO Delta Gaming. Big Team Battle is my passion. I create gameplay opportunities through teamwork and leadership. I persevere by being mentally stronger and more mature than the opposition. I strive to find the light in the dark.....the point between rage and serenity.

My Halo Timeline: Beat Halo CE & Halo 2's Campaigns on solo Legendary (PC) before buying an Xbox 360 & Halo 3 in early 2009. Focused mainly on collecting achievements. I then discovered competitive Halo (MLG at the time) & began watching online tournaments every chance I got. Since then I've kept up with the competitive Halo Esports scene closely & am a dedicated spectator/fan of many players. Due to school & a lack of close immediate support I would never compete in tournaments myself, but I've always had a strong interest in playing Halo competitively no matter the situation. For me, having fun in any multiplayer game means winning & learning how to do so in the most skillfully efficient & teamwork oriented way possible. The following happened next in chronological order:

• Unlocked all achievements in Halo 3 (including DLC).
• Bought Halo 3 ODST day one & unlocked all achievements acquiring Recon armor in Halo 3 (noteworthy feat at the time).
• Played the Halo Reach Beta & hit max rank.
• Bought Halo CE Anniversary day one & unlocked all achievements.
• Bought Halo Reach day one & unlocked all achievements (including DLC). I climbed to "Reclaimer" rank. I had 70,000+ kills with over a 1.9 K/D. Discovered my love for Big Team Battle.
• Bought Halo 4 day one & unlocked all achievements. Hit SR130 within two months of the game's release. I have 103,000+ kills, over a 2.3 K/D, and a 50CSR in BTB, CTF, Race, OG Slayer, ect.
• Played the Halo 5 Beta & achieved Semi-Pro rank in Slayer & Breakout.
• Bought Halo MCC day one & mainly stuck to the BTB playlist. Due to the incredibly broken nature of the game I refused to get all the achievements. There is a lot I could say here. This was by far the lowest point in my experience with the Halo franchise.
• Bought Halo 5 day one & unlocked all achievements. Joined ExO Delta Gaming. Placed Champion #13 in BTB during the Preseason & Champion #43 in only 24 games during the Summer 2019 Season on my alt HybridSupport76. Publicly credited on Halo Waypoint for having majorly impacting the 2019 "BTB Refresh" update (awarded 343 AR skin). Placed Champion rank in BTB on several other accounts. Currently have over 1000 non-Firefight Warzone wins (90% win rate) & over a 80% win rate in Arena with 350+ Perfection medals. I strongly dislike 4v4 in Halo 5 (small maps, horrific spawning, kill times, spartan charge, ect).

• I've set up & successfully run over four different local 6+ Xbox 360 Halo LANs.
• I personally attended & spectated MLG's 2011 Columbus Ohio tournament (Halo Reach) and the 2017 Halo World Championship (Halo 5).
• I don't curse/cuss at all. Even so, I choose to judge others by their actions, not purely by their words.
• I'm an avid gamer, streamer, music listener, movie viewer, and overall media connoisseur.
