Only due to there being no motion sensor and the aformentioned running around, its not because THC takes skill. It takes communication.
So according to you THC takes no skill?
Point #2: THERE ARE LEGIT 50s OMG WHY CAN'T ANYONE GET THAT THROUGH THEIR HEADS! (I hate people that use all caps but it was necessary.)
ElamiteWarrior was a legit 50 before the update, I LiketoGo Dumb is a legit 48, StrongSide was a 49, OGRE 1 was a 48, OGRE 2 a 47, Walshy a 46. There were tons of legit symbols before the ranks reset, and there still are.
Point #3: XBL doesn't matter whatsoever so if you beat a pro don't get all hot and bothered, you would most likely get manhandled on LAN, no never mind, you WILL get manhandled on LAN
Point #4: Don't take me as a hypocrite, I have beaten a lot of pros online but I would most likely get dominated on LAN, after all, they didn't go pro on XBL.
Here is an example: Heinz Almighty, imo the best online FFA player...period. He owns me so hard, and I win FFAs with 5 or 6 pros in them. He went to MLG Dallas and got 18th place, that isn't even pro. LAN proves skill, online does not, LAN has no lag, no bias, it is totally fair with no BS whatsoever.
So if you are going to make a statement about beating pros, or winning online, or pros being 50s legit or not legit....remember that it doesn't matter they are still better then you and they deserve it...
EDIT: Arranging games is not a bad thing, at their levels they would NEVER get a match, ever...ever. So they arrange games against other top 16 teams, pro teams. It's not like they are boosting or anything, they are getting a good challenge and they just happen to have ranks involved. They could easily play customs with MLG rules, but that could get boring after a while so they play some matchmaking against other amazing people for a challenge in a game type not on the circuit or that used to be.
