A big part of it people dont realize is that there are different playstyles, and just because youre a field major (as a random rank, nothing against field majors) doesnt mean you dont have higher skills in certain portions of the game than the 50 does. I have 50s in MLG, Swat, Slayer, Doubles, Snipers and almost lone wolves, and I get beat in social once and a while when playing playing against colonels and such. It comes down to playstyles. I know when I'm playing social, I think can play more aggressive because I feel like I have the upper hand and am confident that I'm a better player. Some people only play good against people who are really good. Some players (most of you know who Neighbor is and hes a prime example), are very emotional, when it seems like the other team is "picking" on them (team shooting them, calling them out excessively), they start playing worse because of the pressure. Some people feel like just because the other team got a 10 point lead right away means were guaranteed to lose. It really doesn't matter what rank you are, it comes down to how confident you are. If you look at 50s in the pregame lobby and are already giving up, then chances are you wont win, but if you say "come on guys, they cant be that good, we got this." All you have to do from that point on is stay calm and keep your head in the game. Some 50s cant play without close friends of theirs in which theyve grown a chemistry with throughout the game and know how to play off of eachothers playstyles. There are different roles in competitive Halo that most of you should know,(I'll use old Str8 Rippin as an example) Main Slayer, Objective, Support, and Strategist. The main slayer feeds off call outs, (Snip3down), the strategist tells best times to push, play objective, exc (T2), the objective player obviously listens to the strategist(Elamite), and the support player is putting shots in everyone and calling them out (TuLegit). And always remember 50s have bad days too... usually saturday morning with hangovers ;). Not all of them are jerks, I'm always game for giving people tips on getting better, and I don't charge people like most 50s. If you want more in depth lessons on how to play smarter, or anything Halo 3 related, feel free to message me.
