The Story of a Halo 2 Champion
Sam Machkovech writes "My buddy Paul Kix of The Dallas Observer did some digging to uncover the life of Matt Leto (aka Zyos), whose track record places him in the top rankings of worldwide Halo & Halo 2 competitions. Professional gaming leagues are nothing new to those who know about the CPL, but this story shines a light at console-focused leagues like the MLG that may very well get the mainstream crowd interested in gaming as a viable sport, along with gamers like Zyos who buck negative stereotypes associated with hardcore gamers -- 'perhaps surprising, Leto's not a nerd. He's an athlete' -- while still kicking virtual ass. Show this article to your parents/spouses next time they harass you about your habit."
He's never kissed a girl. He lives in his mother's basement. But, by golly, he sure is good at Halo !
Come on guys, with a name like 133to, he is obviously good. Where is the story?
What I want to know is how come a 21 year old guy pulling down almost six figures playing Halo 2 is still living with his parents.
