With the New PSP format Champions Vs Challengers, what have you guys talked about and prepared for coming into this season?

Played with Josh Pike last weekend @Wips event in New York, great guy great player glad to see he was picked up by you guys.

we've been practicing hard to ensure we stayin the champions bracket. If for some reason it doesn't work that way then we'll work twice as hard to make sure we get back into the champions bracket the next event.

any more pick-ups on the way or is the roster set?

edit: to classify - i dont mean signing big names, just if you finally have a set roster.

Fox4paintball · 02-10-2013, 06:03 PM

for right now we're set. We feel it's a bit to late to add to the roster for Dallas....But you never know.

We'll be looking to expand the roster post Dallas. Look for an open tryout announcement right after the Dallas event.

Have you guys sat down together and talked about to avoid those costly penalties?

We always sit down and discuss the match.

I think we always come to the conclusion of: Don't cheat.

PRO Field judges are the best.

Fox4paintball · 02-10-2013, 08:06 PM

Not specifically, but that is something everyone understands. We had a few "rookie" mistakes last year that we'll continue to work on this season. Hopefully we can cut down on some of those penalties.

Fox4paintball · 02-10-2013, 08:08 PM

I agree 100% with what Noel said - I took the comment/question as "have we sat down during the off season and discussed it"...

We always discuss/breakdown each match we play as soon after as possible.

Now that you guys are sophomores those are definitely going to start going away. I don't know how much you guys watch the videos on paintball access- but ive watched every one of your matches and many others - noticed a difference between what other people do after getting penalties and you guys. also the conceding points or holding the flag until they buzz it - those kinda things. but im sure with the next season thatll come more naturally.

$Praetorian$ · 02-10-2013, 08:42 PM

Is your aggressive style of play going to continue into 2013?

Nick said with an interview(paintballaccess.com) That he intends to Trust his intuition more.

Are you guys going to be even more Aggressive or you going to relax a little more?

BlackIce008 · 02-11-2013, 05:34 PM

is there a reason bj and carlin arent listed in your droster for psp?

did you make that last final pick up that was hinted at before?

Hot Nuts22 · 02-11-2013, 05:45 PM

i could be wrong but i think bj hurt his arm.

Fox4paintball · 02-11-2013, 06:34 PM

Where to start....

1- yes, are agressive style willl continue along with all the necessary adjustments each match brings.

2 - BJ is not listed on our roster because he has chosen to retire and focus on his work and future wife.

3 - We were unable to make the final pick-up due to some legal complications
