Str8 Rippin was formed for the 2005 MLG Season. The players were acquired by British club Trademark Gamers by MLG Las Vegas 2005, but the team transferred back to Str8 Rippin for the 2006 MLG Season. The 2006 season opened with a Str8 Rippin composed of Tsquared, Foulacy, AYB Fonzi and 'Defy'. In July 2006, after a disappointing 7th place finish at MLG Chicago, 'Defy' filed for free agency in order to get back together with his former teammates, Mack and Vash with whom he claimed to have better chemistry [9]. Str8 Rippin replaced Defy by acquiring Cpt. Anarchy from Team Ex.[10] At the end of the season however, Cpt. Anarchy was released from the team, along with AYB Fonzi.
The team at the start of the 2007 was composed of Tsquared, Foulacy, Legit and Naded. After the MLG Charlotte event in 2007, where the team placed 5th after losing to first place finishers Final Boss and second place finishers Carbon, team members Legit and Naded left Str8 Rippin to join Perfect Storm. They were replaced by Neighbor from Team Make It Rain and BigTimer. After MLG Meadowlands, Tsquared's longtime teammate Foulacy left Str8 Rippin, along with BigTimer. Tsquared recruited highly touted players Havok and MimiC for the MLG Dallas tournament. After the MLG Dallas event, Legit (who had left to join Perfect Storm) rejoined Str8 Rippin along with Tsquared's good personal friend, ElamiteWarrior (formerly of FBI The Agency) to replace MimiC and Havok. The team, composed of Tsquared, Neighbor, Legit, and ElamiteWarrior made a breakthrough at MLG Chicago by becoming the first team other than Carbon and Final Boss to make it to a tournament's Championship match in approximately one year (MLG Chicago 2006 was the last time that this had occurred).
