You have to play a lot and get to know people. Something that won't happen if you spend most of your time trolling here.

Same with getting better.

Probably not coincidental, lol.

but most of the self-proclaimed Alpha lions are on here nonstop, proclaiming their uber-leet alpha skillz.........

coincidence?

How'd you know they are here nonstop, if you weren't here nonstop yourself?

But to tell the truth you right about the self proclaimed ones being here alot, but they are just that, loudmouths and are probably bad.


My point is, the better players know the scene fairly well. Why guys get worked up on something simple as that? Calm down...

As for the thread I'll try it as soon as I get some time but the thread will get moved much soon than thats gonna happen, lol.

I cant possibly join this challenge. This challenge calls for elite players

[Soy]

Won't dignify it

Challenge is below my elo

[Stoicblitzer]

i'd rather not **** my team in the ***.

[Zerberus]

ROFL, Have I ever told you how many ways you just rock, koreanese?

[Koreanese]

Just 1. In my pants

[LordBraxton]

I haven't played enough since they implemented ELO to have a high ELO

6-7 months ago this game was consuming my life tho

[Mizore]

Omg... I think lots of people are missing the point in this thread.

It's not about people who think they are elite players (I don't know if I'm a high elo player, but at least I'm not at the lower end), it's about to show how even good players can't do anything usefull with the trial Spider when it's about fighting other mechs.
The only thing that's left to do is capping bases... because for fighting, all you have is one MedLaser (the flamer can be totally ignored).

But oh my, oh my... if some trolls are reading words like "elite" or "high elo", all they can do is to spam the thread instead of using their brains to read between the lines >.<

Methinks you're being trolled.

[marabou]

High ELO system doesn't allow me to choose any mech without PPC.

Nobody understand wolvesx. he makes ironic, satirical, troll, and serious threads. The trial spider would get rolled 1v1 against any mech given equal pilot skill.

Sorry man, I don't pilot anything lighter than an assault, it's not my area of expertise.

Without trying to imply something...

You get matched with me.

by bragging on the forums how elite you are, its what everyone else does

If your winrate in your last 300 games is higher than 66% I would think that would put you at pretty high Elo. 75%+ would put you near the top. I say your last 300 because the more recent the game, the more the match counts, so having a high win rate based on wins from long ago won't help you.

*Against you. The way Elo matchmaking works right now, high Elo players get put on teams with low-Elo players with the hope that they will equalize the match. If they get matched against you, that is probably more significant.

Wow, so that's how you think Elo works? Really? No wonder so many people are confused.

Its how Elo matchmaking in this game does work. There are not enough players of top skill level, so they often get balanced out with terrible teammates, because AVERAGE team Elo is how the matchmaker puts people together.
