The Halo 5 effect

I want to note that, in my humble opinion, I am good or decent at halo 5. I’ll have my bad games sure, but I’ll my amazing games. Check my service record if you like.

So yesterday i was playing a game of arena and did absolutely terrible lol. The worse game in halo 5 i have had yet. 3-13 and my team lost terribly. So i said grunt it. “Today is not my day for halo. Or maybe its just not my day in Halo FIVE.” My prime was in Halo 3, and i wanted to see how i held up online after about 5 years. I played some ranked halo 3 and carried my team going 36-9 in team BR’s on epitaph.

I formulated a theory on this. Halo 5 and its fast paced style of play enhances your reaction time, maneuverability, awareness, decision making, and overall wit in old school halo games. And this theory will be called the H5 effect

Theory until proven to be factually correct. I’ve had the same thing happen to me, I went back to the MCC at a friends house (because it actually has split screen) and I stomped people in halo 3.

Halo 3 was more about strategy and holding down the map. Halo 5 is about circling the map. You could do well in Halo 3 because you can control the map easily based off of map design and people having to outplay you to get to your position. In Halo 5 they just have to run around the opposite side of the map and spartan charge you and you are defenseless because the radar is too small for a counter attack. I honestly liked the chess game that was Halo 2 and 3 and not the twitch reaction shooter that is Halo 5.
