To be clear, my definition of a competitive player would be someone who tries his best, but doesn't get mad if he loses.
A tryhard would be someone who tries his best, but gets angry if he loses or has bad teammates. They also just go for kills and ignore the objective.

I consider myself to be a competitive player, but only when I search alone. The friends that I play reach with are mostly casual players so when im in matchmaking with them, I won't take the match so seriously (example: driving around in a warthog for fun or betraying each other for laughs).

What type of player are you?

I like to perform personally, and in that sense Im competitive, but I don't have any kinds of expectations for my random teammates. Some destroy the enemy team, and other times, they don't know what Stockpile is. In the team-tier scale of things, I'm casual, in the personal spectrum, I'm competitive.

Competitive. I like to win, but I don't rage if I lose.

Tryhard is the dumbest term I've ever heard used. I've been called that before, honestly playing with my feet kicked up and a beer beside me. I wasn't putting forth any more or any less effort than I always play with; they were just really bad and got stomped.

I like to play Reach for fun. I hate MLG, campers, armor lock, and team killers because they ruin that fun. Deal with it.

I'd say I am casual. I am not that competitive, but I do like winning and do what it takes to win. I don't play in Arena or MLG but I am pretty good at the game. My definition of "casual" is somewhere in between tryhard and noob; but closer to tryhard than the latter.

Casual with tryhard traits.

I'd say I'm a competitive mixed with some casual in there, when I'm feeling lighthearted I like trolling my opponets every now and then with a teabag.

Play it, love it, rate it.

I'm a good mix of the three. I play for fun, but I do my best. I don't often get upset when I lose; however, if I lose because of something rediculous (chronically suicidal teammates, quitters, in-game exploits, etc.) then I may be disgruntled.

Just playing some games that's all :3

I say casual.
I do play to win but then when you think of it;It's a game :P
Tryhards normally just end up losing since the chance of them of winning is from a scale of 1 - 10
3 - 10
(Unless it's not a community map or the map over and OVER again)
I prefer to take my time and ACTUALLY help my team

In the name of God
Impure souls of the living dead
Shall be banished to eternal damnation
AMEN

I got sweat running down my asscheeks from how hard I try.

Meh, I'm a mix of the three.

  • 11.07.2011 4:28 PM PDT

By OP's definition, I am competitive. I like to win, but I don't rage if I lose. It is just a game after all.

Halo Reach 2/3rds of the way mythic conqueror (6/9)

I am a tryhard mythicer.

  • 11.07.2011 4:28 PM PDT

Hmm...

Ok..... Let's see.

-I quit playing Matchmaking because I was sick of people -blam!-ing

-I barely started Campaign commendations

-I decided to do campaign commendations as a challenge to get to General and buy the MK VI helmet + the FC-I[2] attachment.

-I do realize I seem like a retard, but what kind of player does that make me?
