Since season 5 I've hit legendary twice and mid to high 1700s in the other 3 seasons, so I'd say this season's rating is pretty accurate so far. Valid response! it's probably because I'm an EU player that I haven't seen you before, nor spotting your irony. It's me dropping down in and out of plat, but then still making it to top 250 at the end of the season which makes me question the league system, since it's supposed to be less volatile after playing a while after the season started. Which makes me wonder wether I'm just a bad player with a lot of luck or a good player with a lot of misfortune. xxx, Vex Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll get an account set up at 900 rating and minimum deviation to make things interesting. I'll start with something like this. Might switch it up a bit or play another class at some point but we'll see how it goes. http://gw2skills.net/editor/?vFAQJAoIhcMoxhFOwzhBCAjyCHhoQUACABxKTmELDA-jJRHQBlsMQBeAAcY/BAcCAAA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rufo.3716 Posted February 20, 2018 Share Posted February 20, 2018 I must say though he's getting more fair games than the rest of us if he's playing with the Anet tag. How many people do you know will actually have the balls to hack, win trade, or afk when they know somebody from anet is watching. BTW, you want a real challenge play core necro or rev and get to plat. Then I will really be impressed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Highlie.7641 Posted February 20, 2018 Share Posted February 20, 2018 Well this is the Spvp forum so here we go! 70% win rate: HACKS! would be ranked #2, so obviously a win trader. An Arena net dev ranked #2? everyone decent really did leave the game. OP spellbreaker! hm think that cover's everything? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did you actually read through the posts before you? > @"Ben Phongluangtham.1065" said: > We rarely play ranked while repping the ArenaNet guild. It's basically putting a big target on your back and is really distracting during the match. I think the only time I've intentionally turned it on, is when an enemy player started sending me exceptionally vile direct tells after killing him while he was attacking Lord. I wanted him to see his mistake before I asked CS to look at his chat logs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wolfric.9380 Posted February 21, 2018 Share Posted February 21, 2018 OH. core D/D ele with avatar. :-). Like to see this. Feels outdated but for shure intresting to play. And he said it. Winning is more dependent on how you play and your mindset not the build. If you have a build that YOU can handle well then you have something to work with.

I had fun playing janky builds in the past, but I just don't have as much time to play as I used to so I usually stick with the meta stuff. Without disrespect: The replies I see reflect an attitude . That attitude tends to discount anyone having difficulties. I would liken it to a wealthy person running a program for the poor. There's a disconnect there. The most recent patch was moving in the right direction. I hope that continues. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you have a build that YOU can handle well then you have something to work with. still alot of RNG in that, team, adversary builds and mobility etc... i dont like mobility builds but rather play more defensive support builds wich are a joke on this pvp. All ends in being offensive with poor team work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I said "a few red tags" which implies a few Anet employees. I wish we had more Devs playing todays version of the game though Did you think I meant he played back then in the same match on multiple accounts?
