I'm not one of these "FUCK IT, IM OUT" "YOU GUYS ARE GONNA MISS ME" types, but I feel I should at least say something...
Recently my game has been getting worse and worse, no clue why seeing as how I played more than I have in the past couple of months. I went from 1900 elo matches in CA (NA) to now being defeated by 1600 elo players... This was especially enraging when, in a relatively fun game on Overkill, i ran into two very rude players known as Pie! and Toots or some name like those, these guys were walking around like T1 newbies and had PERFECT 45 LG no matter what, I called bull shit as soon as I saw their LG.
Turns out they have 4k + hours in TF2 and were shit talking me, talking about how aim is the same in source as it is in Quake, which to anybody who has played both, knows is false, you can't just jump into Quake and get 45 LG, people know dodges and you need to learn leaning on shots. To my knowledge there is no LG equivalent in TF2...
This however caused me very much angst and so I rage quit, and I now realize that all this time I put into trying to be a better player, I'll never be better than some idiot who came from TF2 and his buddy. I see now that competitive players have to be cut out, and not formed as i once believed. And to think I was talking about going to compete at QuakeCon, and thinking i would stand a chance...
All this backstory is for this one realization: I'm shit at Quake, and always will be.
Nonetheless I met some really nice people on here, and if you want to know what I will be playing its CS:GO and SW:ToR.
*heres to hoping Quake never dies.
