No you don't suck rank doesn't matter.


Yes it does, because rank for the most part is representative of skill. People like you say it isn't because everyone feels it's cheating them.

On-topic: Because as a 50 the lowest rank you can get paired with at 50 high MM is a Colonel, and they are nowhere near good enough to compete at 50 high. They nearly always go negative, because simply put the other players in the game are far better than them.

They also most of the time give a terrible excuse as to why they aren't a higher rank but should be:

'My connection sucks'
'My teammates suck'
'I could be a 50 but I stopped playing ranked'
'I could be a 50 but I play for fun'
'I could be a 50 but I don't want to be associated with other 50s'
'The ranking system hates me'
'I beat 50s all the time in social'
'All 50s are bought'
'All 50s are boosted'
'All 50s are cheaters'


How old are you, exactly? Ever consider people just don't care about ranking up as it's well... Just a number...

Apparently in order to play Halo now you need to take it seriously, huh.

I guess its the hing to do for the MLG want to be's.


I love it when a twelve year old kid is screaming through his mic about how he's a MLG pro.

Actually I don't, it makes me cringe in confusion.

Man, I miss dem Halo 3 days :'(

Because they keep making excuses about why they are not very good, like "I don't play ranked" and "I play for fun" instead of just admitting they that are not very good.

I'm not a rabid Colonel hater, but a 45 is pretty damn easy to get. I wouldn't even have posted in this thread if I hadn't read countless excuses about why Colonels are not 45's.

I would assume the reason Colonels get so much hate is because they are the only other rank that gets paired with Brigs and Generals (In high ranked games). Legit brigs and generals are better than legit Colonels, thus ensues the hate.

Of course, legit ranks worse than colonels are....worse, but I don't think they receive as much hate because it is blindingly obvious that they are not very good.

It doesn't matter that colonels are not as good as Brigs and Generals (It might to some people) but the point is, it doesn't matter if you "Play for fun" (Which is stupid, everyone does) or if you "Don't play Ranked" because that doesn't make you a better player, which is ultimately, the point of the hate.
