(S10) - PT 2 - Pregame Hype - Oles - 09-03-2018
Requirements
Written: Must include 200 words. Everyone has a set of songs that inspire them, whether it's something relaxing, something loud, or something that is just constant screaming, everyone has music they listen to before the game to get ready. Write about what your player listens to that gets him hyped up.
Graphic: Create a playlist featuring these songs, include 3 songs and your render. Could be a poster with songs, a sig, anything as long as you include what is required.
Do not claim this TPE until a post is made in the claim thread.
Note: As per the most recent announcement our buddies over at SHL have also allowed PT linking. This is as simple as it was before, link your PT to their PT for credit in both, or link your PT post from there to here and get credit for completion. PBE PT linking is still around and with every league working together on this now 1 PT can get you a completion in all 3 leagues. There has never been a better time to join the other leagues and still earn everywhere.

Kazimir Oles has a wide variety of music he listens to. Avenged Sevenfold, Metallica, Disturbed, Volbeat, Queen, Dream Theater, and others allows for a wide variety of music in his pregame playlist. Of course, one of the songs required is Don’t Stop Me Now by Queen, a magnificent song that really gets him pumped up. He’s also been a huge fan of Carry On by Avenged Sevenfold after beating Black Ops 2 and experiencing it for the first time, along with Shepherd of Fire, another Black Ops 2 song, this time with the Zombies mode. Along with Welcome to the Family and Nightmare, a few Avenged Sevenfold songs make it on his playlist for pregame. Many songs from these bands appear, and while not all the bands are similar, such as Dream Theater being a much different band than Metallica and so on, they’ve all been large parts of Kazimir’s life and growing up and making it as far as he has so far. Growing up listening to Metallica, knowing all the words to Enter Sandman, Sad But True, and constantly listening to other songs like My Friend of Misery, Master of Puppets, One, and other songs, Metallica has been a huge part of his life.

Vladimir Fyodorovich career was not going in the direction he hoped for, but at least he was part of every game in his career and was in 4 straight Ultimini/Ultimus finals during his stint in DSFL and NSFL. Bleed It Out by Linkin Park reminds him what is important in the career growth that even despite his individual failures blood and tears pay big dividends that can be seen on his trophy list. Even though yeah, here we go for the hundredth time with hand grenade pins in every line, let's Throw 'em up and let something shine going out of my fucking mind with every game that he nabs only
At the end of the day though, he remembers that Live is Life by Opus band sings. Because when we all give the power, we all give the best in every minute of an hour and don't think about the rest. It's a really calming song that helps him see brighter future even in darkest days spent in the corner of NSFL fields.
Their is also motherland accent VITAS - Седьмой элемент (The 7th Element). Vladimir uses it whenever he needs to enter the higher state of consciousness (or whenever he is really drunk/high), especially this perfect 10-hour version.
Pregame rituals, and especially music are very important to players, especially those that may spent entire downs without any actions.

Despite being a clone, that does not mean he shares the same interest in music as his Gene Father. Clone Spector was "raised" in a lab and was exposed more to the scientists who studied and manipulated his growth, so proving nurture over nature, Marc grew to like Electro Swing. One of the doctors who worked overnight would play a band called Caravan Palace. Marc started to really display physical sills dancing to the synth beat and the doctor worked with him to improve his coordination using that style of music. Since joining the Pythons, he's kept an old outdated MP3 player full of music with him with many Electro Swing bands like Parov Stellar, Tape Five, 11 Acorn Lane, Dutty Moonshine, Jamie Berry, Swingrowers and Alice Francis filled in it. He listens to it a lot, but tries not to let his music enjoyment interfere with his strength and conditioning and all the training he's doing to prepare taking the field for the Portland Pythons. He was told by his team of scientists that it's not socially okay to play his music loud for all to hear because not everyone likes that music. So, when Marc was in the locker room and heard other people playing their musics, he was confused because they were allowed to play their music for all to hear. Social interacting and understanding these sort of things is still new to him.

As a massive anime fan people would probably expect that one of the ways Turk pumps himself up for games is by blasting some Naruto Opening Theme no. 2 or maybe the absolute banger that is the Mirai Nikki opening theme no.1, but those people could not be more wrong.
Turk is actually a massive fan of hard rock, metal, post hardcore. Anything heavy basicly. So it are songs of these genres that gets his blood flowing, which focuses him to the max.
All That Remains - Six, is the first absolute banger on his list. Starting from the screamer of an intro to the song, followed by the massive scream is enough to get Turk ready for the game to go. To finish it off the outro is just bone chilliny good.
Enter Shikari - Enter Shikari, is the next song on Turk's play list. The first song from first album of the legendary band Enter Shikari. There is no better way than starting a song then just yelling 'SHIT'. Also Turk absolutely recommends going to a live show of Enter Shikari, these guys know how to fuckin rock.
Dance Gavin Dance - Son of Robot, last song for the list today, but this song has it all. Some heavy shit, some soft and gentle shit and that absolute legend of a scream after that absolute banger of a build up intro. Ya gotta love music.

Gordon Ramsey Jr. has a list of songs he goes through in a very specific order to prepare himself physically and mentally for an upcoming game.
First on the playlist is Beethoven's Ninth Symphony. Nothing like some classical music to put you in the mood. Nothing against Mozart, but it's just the way Beethoven composed his music that exerts calmness and helps settle Ramsey in the zen zone.
Next we're gonna listen to some 80's music. This is the one that differs the most. It's always some 80's rock tunes, but the song differs every time. It's often a Micheal Jackson song, since those are some pretty nice beats. Among gordon's favorites to listen to are "Billie Jean" "Tainted Love" "Living On a Prayer" and "Thriller."
Lastly, we're going into our hype up song: Radioactive by Imagine Dragons. Ramsey is the butt of all the jokes come 5 minutes before the game because he's playing an Imagine Dragons song to hype himself up, but he doesn't mind. It's obviously helping him since he's had 2 interceptions so far in his career.
Not the worst of all playlists in the league, I'm sure. I bet some guy has the Little Ponies theme song on his playlist, so it could be worse. Gordon isn't much of a music man, but even he has his jams that he likes.

Lucari Felix gets himself prepared for games but mainly sitting in silence and listening to music. He pops his headphones in and he usually just zones out. His playlist includes a multitude of different songs from different genres of music. He likes listening to hip-hop, country to rock. He just generally enjoys good music and he doesn't really dislike any kind of music. His main top songs that he liked to listen to are:
1. Moment by Merkules - Merkules is a pretty big youtube rapper and he has been pushing his album like crazy. He isn't that well known but he was someone that Lucari discovered within the past couple months and has been listening to constantly.
2. Wishing Wells by Witt Lowry - Witt is a rapper with a nice gift. His lyrics mainly cater towards his past relationships but he also has some other great songs as well. If you are recently dealing with a bad break up or just came out of a bad relationship, give him a listen.
3. Rockstar by Post Malone - I am certain we have all heard of Post Malone and this song before. It's just a nice hype up song that will get you ready for anything. If you don't believe me, just give it a listen.

PBE/SHL are forcing their leagues down my throat with this PT affiliation, I´m guessing I will see this mentioned in the PT section here and I will also see the possible links, that is promoting their own league in key place of another league.
You and many who are so happy to see this change are just lazy, want to have as much fun as possible without doing the work. That is a fact. You can hide behind the ´Ooo, we are helping sim league community to get closer each other and helping all the leagues to have as many users as possible´ - line, but in the end it comes down to not wanting to do the PT´s in all three leagues.
Just because 20 people posts about it being a positive thing, does not mean it´s actually a positive thing. NSFL allowed snakes from other leagues to sneak into top positions and now is paying the price for it, getting destroyed from the inside.

Kellan Buchanan is a rock fanatic and when he is not on the field he is finding a local concert to crash with his teammates. Obviously his go-to music is Rage Against the Machine before a game but he has several others that fans don't know about. Chevelle is a underrated band and Buchanan has been listening to them for years (enter hipster joke now). Another classic on his playlist is anything by Audioslave or Alice in Chains. Buchanan is huge into the Seattle grudge scene so it's no surprise to see a bunch of artists feature from that scene. A few of the other artists that Buchanan likes to pump when it's his disc jockey day in the lockerroom are Royal Blood, Anberlin, AWOLNATION and some Prince. Buchanan is a California kid so we half expected more California founded bands but it seems Red hot Chilli Peppers are the only "California" based band in his playlist that is prominent. Kellan says its hard to pick up walk-up music because there are so many great rock hits to choose from. Ultimately though his walk-up music is "Microphone Fiend" by Rage Against the Machine. The way Tom Morello can grind the guitar is incredible.
