'Final Boss' is a professional electronic sports team which competes in Major League Gaming (MLG). Team members had competed at other MLG events for StK clan and Team 3D. They were considered the top Halo team in the MLG due to a string of victories in 2004 and 2005. Their 8-game winning streak came to an end when Team Carbon, which newly acquired GH057ayame, defeated them at the event in Orlando during the 2006 season. They came in second place to Carbon at the final three events, including Orlando, the New York Playoffs and the National Championships in Las Vegas. Final Boss won $50,000 as the runner-up at the MLG National Championship in November 2006. Final Boss has a strong rivalry with MLG teams Str8 Rippin and Carbon. The teams favorite gametypes are Midship CTF and Lockout Ball. Final Boss bounced back from the 2006 season and won first place in the first three MLG events in 2007 with newly acquired teammate StrongSide.Team FB's Favorite Gametypes

History


According to MLGpro.com:

Coach


After losing two events consecutively in 2006 to carbon, Team Final Boss acquired The Ogre Twins' older brother, Marty "Ogre 3"[3] Ryan to coach them during the National Championship in Las Vegas. Seeing as Marty also plays Halo, and would most likely be unable to coach during the regular season, the Ogres adopted long time friend "ManTrain" as their coach for the 2007 season.

Transactions


In December 2004, just before the 2005 MLG Season began, the Ogres and Walshy dropped KillerN and signed Saiyan. However, after losing to Team Carbon three times in a row at the end of the 2006 season Final Boss dropped Saiyan in favor of StrongSide.
