There's not enough money in this game to go pro.

No Puglandia player is going to notice or care that you are somehow objectively number one. Nor will they listen anymore than they normally do.

Plus do you really believe people will actually respect you? Your post is kinda pure cringe.

Be able to beat Proton in a 1v1 consistently, with any 'Mech and build.

Good luck.

Also, there are no "Pros." The closest are the MWOWC finalists since they got some money out of it, otherwise everybody plays for hobby.

Twitch streamers are oftentimes very good, but aren't necessarily 'pro'. I'm not sure what 'pro' even means in MWOs context, since there are roughly only 24-36 people who have won any sort of money at it. Really, no one can use MWO as a profession and so there won't be 'pros'.

You might be looking to be called 'elite' or 'very good', and by name/reputation alone this is more likely to come if you have the tag of an elite unit (one of the very highly competitive ones).

Considering that the time I've seen you in game you were screaming and pitching a ****fit when people didn't follow your lead, so you ran to the edge of the map and hid, and though our team continued to struggle to a very close tie, you potentially cost us the win.

Before worrying about being 'pro', I would fix that kind of behavior first. Otherwise respect is going to be a very long time coming.

its more for the people that are vets really.

and how so cringe? its just a question.

maybe i am capable of reaching that stage and why not ? are you the type to bash on someones goals and objectives or guide them and assist them through it ?

could you your self be capable of reaching pro rank?

how about guidance ?? there is always a way.

was that the game where if every one took a spot. they would have won the match, because they were out skilled by the enemy team?

where everyone got there butts kicked in less then 10 mins?

where even if i was a AFK or DC, the team should have kept going instead of relying so much on one or two players to do all the work while everyone claims the victory ??????



also was that the match i did more damage then our whole team ???????????????????????????


i probably have that video. i will have to dig around and look for it.

remember you talk about the bad stuff, but u leave out the good stuff. that is not fair more like fake news writers . is that what you do ?


and your right i guess the right term is to be elite or ace. and part of a good unit. but then even some of the elite or good unit. but being part of a unit your taking others credit.


and
Cato Phoenix

you could use some improvement with your long range buddy, work on er ppcs and large lasers builds untill you can break 2000 damage in faction with 4 thunderbolts using nothing more then 2 er ppcs and std eng max heat sinks :-D

we can do some long range practice in privet lobby if you like, i'll show you :-D

Understand the concepts of reactive trading and proactive trading

Congratulations, you aren't a pro, but you are tremendously more effective

It goes hand in hand with peeking intelligently

Being pro doesn't mean you're the best, just means you make a living out of it. Just win the WC every year and don't share the prize money with the rest of the team.

ok so pro means = making money and living off it
WC events. ( but u can not do those on your own just yet right ? you need a team or no go?)

elite/ace = your just a damn good player ranked up there with the best, people know you, fear you, respect you and rely on you to have their backs with a chance of winning?

??????

and if i did do WC and won, i would share the money with the team. period.
