Hey guys. First of all, thanks for watching the channel! Unfortunately I don't plan on playing Black Ops that much, but when I do, I accept invitations for all viewers. If you're wanting to join my lobby, there are things you should know before you do.
Let's go over the obvious first: This is the Xbox 360 version. We usually play Domination. 6 players max. If you see six names highlighted in BLUE, that means my lobby is currently full. Invites go by first come first serve -- people who sent me a message first are first in queue to join the lobby. I am a US player, so expect US connection/ping. YOU MUST HAVE THE FIRST STRIKE MAP PACK.
To get into queue, send a message to iMoogle with something indicating you'd like an invite. (just "inv" in the message is sufficient)
Since we play domination, there are very common things people do in the game:
Sounds pretty simple, right? Feel free to send me a message now.

Since we play domination, there are very common things people do in the game:
- PERKS: When capping a point, the enemies will tend to toss long distance grenades onto the flag in order to stop the capture. PLEASE HAVE A FLAK JACKET CLASS, PREFERABLY WITH MARATHON. That way you can easily run flag to flag and survive grenade launcher rounds to the face (literally). That being said, Marathon with a lightweight weapon (SMG) helps run to the capture points faster. Tactical Mask class can also be handy, since spamming grenades onto capture points is common.
- WINNING: Ignoring the objective. We all love to have high K/D ratios (I do as well), but remember we're playing to win as well. As long as you're listening in on the situation, whether it be the in-game announcements are your teammates callouts over the microphone, and actively making attempts to defend/offend flags, we won't have an issue with you. Once we secure our positions and gain a huge lead, feel free to focus on your K/D.
- COMMUNICATION: I'm glad you had macaroni and cheese for lunch today. But once we start playing the game, try and stay a little focused and not drift off-topic and distract the team. Also, I leave my Xbox microphone on when I talk to the viewers in the channel. So refrain from going "wat r u tlkin to me??". Try to use a little common sense on which one I'm talking to. I know I may seem hypocritical here, but as a caster I feel obligated to talk to the viewers.
- WEAPONS: I don't care too much for what you use. Just be sure to have an anti-air weapon class (Strela) to take down choppers. The first couple people that die after a killstreak has been called in should switch to their Strela class IMMEDIATELY. Smoke grenades are BOSS!
- SKILL: There are no skill requirements for my lobby. Although most of the time my party consists of highly competitive players who work really well with each other. We are try-hards, because kicking ass is fun. FYI, it's not fun carrying teammates. It's up to you if you want to join or not. Please don't try to convince me with your K/D or W/L ratios, or worst of all, YOUR PRESTIGE LEVEL. Sorry, but I don't care. Show me in-game what you're capable of, if you really do.
- KILLSTREAKS: Think you're hardcore? You can probably get consistent Black Birds back-to-back. I suggest doing so, because most of the people I play with also use Black Bird!
Sounds pretty simple, right? Feel free to send me a message now.
