How is someone not playing in a tourney or scrim not qualified to talk about a game?? This the shyt I'm talking about, isn't the mere act of playing a game online competitive?? Y'all got arbitrary criteria y'all make up on the spur of the moment "Oh you have to had played 4 rounds of Slayer with map off, speed at 7.7% etc." like
Anyway I played in that unsuccessful tourney y'all had started up on here when 4 dropped.

Again y'all can miss me with that "you have to play in a scrim to talk" shyt. As if the game having it's own competitive playlists to play against other people isn't enough now. That says a lot about the game if you have to constantly modify it to play how you feel it should play.
What the fukk kind of analogy is that??? Basketball for one can only be really played competitively if you're playing in an actual game be it at a school or the official NBA.A street match usually is more lenient as ain't nobody got no shot clock or refs surveying the game.

Here's my thing though, his whole point was matchmaking against randoms is not the same because of ____ diluting the experience which I understand. What I was trying to relay to him is that how is he saying that when the settings he most likely use is available to me and most likely those who want that competition flock to?? If he plays Pro/MLG playlists on say Halo, the noobs and casuals aren't likely to be playing in those modes so I'd take that to be the mode one plays if they're serious.
Sigh...it's like talking to brick wall
and Vice Versa but carry on..
Just because you can load up Halo 3 and hop in the MLG playlist does not mean you are skillful by any means. It also does not mean you playing the most competitive set of games available. What is your MLG rank in Halo 3? Also, unless you are playing team vs. team instead of random teammates vs. random teammates you arent playing the most competitive match possible. This is fukking common sense and anyone that plays high level Halo or any competitive shooter will tell you this.
You should've said that earlier. You were talking in a broad sense so it's easy for someone to interpret what you're saying differently from how you intended someone to take it.
I've played Halo with you. I would NEVER team with you because of your skill level, no disrespect...it is what it is. I know you've never played Halo at it's highest level or anywhere close to it. It's a different ball game when you have real teams going at it, not some fukk around matchmaking shyt.
I don't have the time to get that much work in.
Please stop this nonsense about playing the same settings as ppl at tournaments, that shyt is cool...but the experience is NOT THE SAME. Again, what is the highest rank you achieved in the MLG playlist? I'm asking because only at a certain level do you actually get real competitive matches and they still arent as competitive as getting two teams in a custom lobby going at it for an 11 game series.
Ahh so experience is what you're getting at. Cool.
I've met dudes like yo over the years playing Halo. They think they understand competitive halo because they can go in the playlist and play 10 games on their lvl 15 accounts and think they understand what it takes to be a good player or one who is successful competitively.Debatable but I see what you saying.
Regarding the street fighter thing. I have SF4:AE....I suck at it, because I don't play fighters like that. I've played matchmaking which is similar to tournaments. That does not mean I understand competitive SF because I can played the same shyt they played. It's a lot deeper than playing the same settings and maps. I understand certain concepts and shyt, I actually tried to learn the game. It wasn't till I actually tried to learn competitive SF that I realized how much I did not know. The same thing goes for you and Halo (or any competitive game).
